>>>>>>FREEBIE<<<<<<


Okay I'm back and with a Freebie this time lol...
Here's the deal, I was suppose to go to the city today to see my sister in law in the hospital...which would have taken me away for all my play time today...and usually when we go there on Saturday, we end up spending the nite which REALLY would have infringed on my play time lmao...
soooooooooo
I made a deal with hubby, if I help him clean one of his buildings tonite and we go to city tomorrow (no chance of spending the nite then, work Monday morning haha) then I could have more play time today...he love's when I go clean with him, so he was so happy, he went out in the woods hunting and gave me even more quiet time on here lmao...
So look's like it's a win win situation lol...I get time to play and y'all get a Freebie, which oh by the way
can be grabbed right
I was gonna keep it a surprise for ya, but since I went and named the dang file what it was, guess that's no surprise DUH and more DUH'sssss lol
So here is what you are gettin', that's only if ya want it


I hope you enjoy designing cards with this silhouette as much as I enjoyed makin' it...
Have a Crafty Day...

Blog Awards


Okay, I am sitting here thinking, what can I do to show my appreciation for all the beautiful cards and all that these ladies have been so kind to design for me...I thought, what else but an award...
So I created this award for the "special" Design Team that I have had the pleasure to "work" with...
You ladies are the best in my book...I am so happy to have had the chance to create for your addictions...

You can do what ever it is you want to with this award...no strings attached lol...you can pass it on to other's if you like, or just display it on your blog for your own pleasure...it's yours to do with as you please...I just want you ALL to know how much you mean to me...
Love ya ALL


Love & Hugz

Mushroom Delight



Finished up another one from "the oven" before I have to travel into the city to see my sister  in law maybe one last time...Have you ever had one of them weeks where it is just one bad thing after another...well I guess it's my turn for that...
Not feeling like talking right now, but wanted to get this in here for y'all to view...

Freebie Stamp "Butterflies Are Free"



It is with a heavy heart that I am writing this...
We at Digital-Ink, Co put together a collab in October to stamp out breast cancer...
I never dreamed that I would be giving away my portion of the stamp in honor of a friend of mine who was laid to rest yesterday from breast cancer...Her only son and my son (13 years old) have been friends since kindergarten and rode the same bus for the past 8 years of their lives.  She was beyond close to her son and she will be missed dearly by many...
Please when you download this free stamp, all I ask is that you say a little prayer for Kim
Thank you all who see
God Bless

Sympathy



A lady friend of mine wrote to me and asked me if I had anything for a sympathy card...I looked and I did not...hmmm I thought, that should be in a stamp store...so I went and made one up last nite...now the reason she asked me this, is there is a DT member on a challenge site that just lost her little 3 year old boy...and she wanted to make her a card...if you would like to read about it, warning, tis very sad...you can go HERE
I was very touched by this story, it's bad enough when we loose our parents or someone else who is in our lives that have had time to live out their lives, but somehow it is just un-natural to loose our kids first...I could not even imagine that happening to me... Anyway, that is the reason for this stamp...
As for me today, I will be adding another FREEBIE today...but unfortunately, this freebie belongs to another sad story that has touched my life...this one not from the internet but from someone I have known for 15 years...stop back and here her story...
Peace and Love

Okay, enough of the mushy stuff lol...up there is my newest stamp, since I love Hell's Kitchen, I couldn't resist this guy lol...you can find him right HERE

Pop over and stay awhile, might find something you like lol
As for me, I'm off to work again..TGIF...it's snowing all around me and I'm so happy this is the last day of school this week...Been terriable there with this dang ole Swine Flu...I drive a short bus and only had 4 kids on the other day...never seen absenties so bad...We had over 300 kids missing 2 days ago...to many if you ask me lol...
