Sally's box

I made this box for my friend who is battling cancer and filled it with cards for her to give away. I'm happy with the way it turned out!

10 Weeks Until Christmas

Can you believe it??? Only 10 weeks until Christmas! That sounds REALLY close! Well, I've decided to do a countdown to Christmas with some sort of project that is Christmas related each week. If anyone wants the challenge as well, make a comment and add a link so we can all get ideas!

For my first week I've decided to make a card with the Patterned Pines set. I love this stamp set! (I'm sure you'll be seeing quite a few cards with this set in the next few weeks!)

Happy Birthday

What a great birthday! Lori sent me this adorable cupcake die and Lacie went right away and made me a birthday card with it! Isn't that the cutest! Thanks Lori!!!

Lacie bought me a Baby Ruth candy bar and gave me $5! Sooooo sweet! She also made me dinner and lemon bars. Grateful to have a girl!

Mark is embracing my new desire to learn tennis and is getting me a new racquet + accessories along with lessons (I need them.)

Beth brought me the cutest cupcake basket of lotions and a plate full of cupcakes.

Mom and Dad gave me $$! Yea!

Lots of sweet birthday wishes from family and friends. Thanks everyone!

Bad News

We learned a couple of weeks ago that two dear friends are battling very serious health issues. One has a brain tumor and the other has breast cancer. It's amazing how attitude affects everything! They both have been such a great example to me as to how to deal with a stress like this. I wanted to express my support and the hope I feel, so I made this card for them.

This card is just a little different. (It really makes a difference when I'm able to take my pictures outside during the day!)

Supplies

Stamps: Hope Happens

Paper: Rich Razzleberry, Certainly Celery, Orchid Opulence, White

Ink: Rich Razzleberry

Accessories: Nestabilities, Beautiful Butterflies die, Texturz plates, ribbon
