Where has the week gone.?

....It's already Thursday and I feel like I have lost the past two days.  I have only managed to make one card in the past two days and miss my crafting already.  I can't wait to get back on track today and spend some time creating some new challenge cards.

    I do have one card to share and this was created with a new stamp called 'Spa Gilli' and this is another of the wonderful adorable stamps from the Gilli line, the wonderful line created, by my friend Anary.  My card was also created and is card with a few challenges in mind and wish I could go spend a lovely day at the SPA! 

    My 'Life is Good' Spa Gilli card was created and inspired by the following challenges:
      I also want to remind everyone that today is the last day to enter the 'Let's Celebrate' - Challenge over at A Day for Daisies and I would LOVE to see you enter a card.  For inspiration, I used this sweet Blossom Cupcake image, as I think a nice little treat is always a fun way to celebrate. 


   Afternoon Update - It's been a great day of catching up on some of my favorite challenges and today I have a card inspired by both Meljen Designs who is sponsoring today's challenge over at the 'Stars and Stamps Blog' for Operation Write Home.  This is the card I created for Challenge # 27 - Monochromatic - over at the Meljen Designs Team Challenge blog.   My image, called 'Faith Love Hope', is a favorite and one of the many Meljen Design images I have in my collection.  If  you would like to add some to your collection, please can go HERE!



     I also want to take a moment to thank Melissa, the artist and creator of Meljen Designs, for featuring one of my cards on the her blog today!   It was such a wonderful honor and I was very happy to see it in today's newsletter.    It was a fun card and was created with another of her wonderful images -- 'Fall Teddy Bear'.  Thank you Melissa for the wonderful honor and my best wishes to Carla who also had her adorable card featured!



     Hope you all have a wonderful day and as always -- Happy Crafting!!!

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".
