A gorgeous weekend!

Good Morning,

  I am very happy to let everyone know that Hurricane Earl came through overnight and it was really nothing but a small rainstorm.  I am very happy that we did not have any damage and we really did not even have much rain of wind.  I do think the Southern Coast and Islands probably had more rain and wind, but it's now a lovely blue-sky day, bright and sunny with lovely dry air and a light sea breeze...WONDERFUL!! 

  I am working on challenge cards today and have one new card to share now.  This card was created with a new digi image that I bought this week from - A Day for Daisies.   My card was created for their very first challenge which you can find on the challenge blog - The Flowers Basket Challenge Blog.  The first challenge is called Happiness is!   And to me happiness is so many things  -- Love, Being a Mom, My Hubby, Crafts, The Beach and so much more.  When I first saw this wonderful image it reminded me of waking up each morning and hearing the birds sing...and those days are always a nice start and a happy thing for me.


   I hope you'll enjoy this card and it will help to remind you of all the things that make you feel Happy.   My card is also being submitted to the following challenges:

     Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend !!

I love the cheerful happy colors you chose for this card Lisa! Your card makes me happy just looking at it.

For my rose image over at CDAC I used stickles. I do have some of the Pearl Pens but I don't feel I have quite the same control over the flow as with stickles. I had already colored the image so I didn't want to mess up. :-/

It is funny how we met up, and then you got me to coloring/card making isn't it?! The only scrapping I had ever done was an album a year ago for my Mom's 80th Birthday. I think it all means that we have to meet up~maybe for CHA or something like that?!

this is such a pretty card! I, too, love to listen to the birds. I have a wonderful owl that sits outside my window, even though we live in town, and he serenades me all through the day..... :) glad to be a Lady Bud with you!

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
