I saw this on a blog this morning and thought it was super cute. Then I realized that I have all the supplies needed to do it. I don't think mine turned out quite as good as the one I saw, but I'm happy with it. I used the Sizzix Flower, Daisies #2. Cut three of each size flower and layer on a scalloped circle cut with Nestabilities.

Check out Stampin' Up's New Deal of the Week. Square Fire Rhinestone brads for $6.99. Deal ends July 20th.

Sonny and I grilled steaks on our new gas grill. It's been sitting in the living room for a week now. Sonny couldn't figure out why he had so many leftover nuts, bolts, and screws. (read the directions!) lol The steaks were great and it's nice to have a gas grill again.

No stamping last night. I left priceless, went by Sam's club to pick up a few things and worked on Bonnie's daughter's wedding flowers. I finished the maid of honor's bouquet. Now, I only have three more to do.

When I got home from town, my nosey neighbor was out by the fence to see what I was up too. So, I walked over to talk to him. Then Sonny came out with a hand full of carrots. We spoil him rotten sometimes. I'll have to start claiming him on my taxes if carrots and apples keep going up.

I actually slept in yesterday morning, and it felt so good. I called Margi around noon to check on her. I didn't want to go into town if they had sent her home. They were taking her in for a cat scan. Poor thing had three of them yesterday. They don't know why her white cell count is so high, so they are trying to eliminate what is not causing it. I took some shampoo and conditioner with me and washed her hair for her. I can't stand it if I don't wash mine for two days, she has gone almost two weeks. It was tricky, it wore her out, but she is beautiful again.

Sonny fried shrimp for dinner as I worked on some flowers for the Cruz wedding. These are not for the wedding party, I'm not real clear who they are for. But they turned out nice, they are in the pink and brown colors of the wedding invitations. Oh, the shrimp were fantastic. It's almost shrimping season again. I can't wait to get out there and net some more this year. I froze at least 15 quarts of shrimp last year.

My gardenia is in full bloom. This bush is a monster, it's at least 12 ft. tall and 8 ft. around. I am standing on the back stoop and I have to hold the camera over my head to get this angle. My African Iris has bloomed more than it ever has this year too. They are slowing down now, but there has been anywhere from 7 - 12 blooms open along the sidewalk at a time.

Another full weekend. Matthew, Candace and all three kid came up to spend the weekend camping on our property. J.P. and Tammy stopped by and decided to join them. So they went home and got their tent. It's almost 2:00 am and I just came in from the campfire. I will be sleeping in my nice soft bed. We have all had fun, but boy am I tired. I made one of my niece's bouquets for her wedding while they went for a boat ride this afternoon. This will be her throw-a-way bouquet. I love the glittered butterfly that I added. Madison wants one, now that I had her model with this one.

I also have finished remodeling my bathroom. I have some before and after pictures to share with you. Before:

Here are some after pictures:

I textured and painted the walls, put up a tile back splash around the sink, and painted the inside doors and trim. I bought a new shower curtain, rugs, trash can and towel bars. I couldn't find the towels bars that I wanted, so I bought them in a different color and painted them the color that I wanted. Then I created the clock, and pictures to match the shower curtain. Well, that was fun! Now, I'm off to attack the utility room. It's a good thing that summer is coming. I know in my heart that the utility room in going to spill into the kitchen. Yuk!
