Priscilla's Papercrafts: Back in Time for a Birthday!

It feels like ages since I've done a post. But I had a great reason for taking a vacay...I had ALL my kids and grandkids here for a week! After Jim and I moved to Oregon this spring, only one son, who lives in Portland, had seen our new home. So when my other two wanted to come visit, I was thrilled to hear that they were coming the same week! But having 17 people around for days makes for a very busy life! I must say that the washer/dryer and dishwasher certainly got a work out, and my new house has definitely been christened. And we got in a family photo session! Haven't ever done this, and have always wanted to. We've only seen a few pics so far; anxiously awaiting the other, like, 600! Yikes!

Here is baby Matilyn, concentrating on a flower - so precious!

Prior to my busy week, I had been in super crafting mode! I was having so much fun playing with all the goodies I got from the new Annual Catalog. I just didn't have time to share; but the time is now! And just in time for my sister-in-law's birthday, here's one of the stamp sets that makes me smile every time I see it:

Young At Heart is the perfect set for those of us at that, ahem, 'certain' age. With fun "vintage" characters having a ball with life! Don't you just love this woman carrying a huge cake (must be huge to hold ALL those candles)?

Several layers here: The brick background is the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. Then a frame using the Stitched Rectangles and my absolute favorite new Designer Series Paper, See a Silhouette. Some Granny Apple Green Textured Weave Ribbon under a Stitched Labels diecut, with a Stitched Nested Label cut out of Brights Designer Series Paper. Wow!
