A fun filled Friday!!

....Not only is it Friday and the end of the week, it's all the very last day of 2010 and time to say goodbye to this year and start a fresh new year.   We are going out to an early and casual dinner as our little celebration fir New Year's Eve and that's just perfect for me and I'm looking forward it to.  It's been a long time, since I've made it up to midnight and I don't think I'll make it tonight, although I generally do wake up right around that time, from the sounds of those out in the neighborhood who are up and celebrating.   For you who are until Midnight--I wish you all a lot of FUN and hope you enjoy the beginning of 2011!!

    Today, I have two new cards to share and lots of news too!  I'm starting with a brand new Freebie that is being released today over at Baby Bud Designs.  It's the new addition to the Baby Bud Family and he's one handsome little fellow named 'Kai'.   He will be our Freebie for a short time, so please be sure to visit soon and grab him while you can! 





   And while you are visiting Baby Bud Designs, don't forget that you still have until Noon (EST) today, to submit a project to Challenge # 3.   If you are a fast card-maker, you might even be able to make a project with Kai!   Go go go!!  GOOD LUCK to all!   Winners will be posted on the blog early next week and we'll be starting up our new challenges on Monday, January 10th!!   We will also have a very special new release and I know you're going to love it!!  ll keep you posted and hope to see you on the 10th for one of my favorite releases and the start of Challenge # 4


  My Kai Card is also being submitted to these fun challenges!  Please join me and have some fun!!

Lis,

I LOVE Kai!! He is so adorable and you did a fabulous job dressing him up!! I cant wait to try my hand at making a card with him too!

Your Cocoa George is so cute! I love the DP and the starburst pattern that you attached him to. He is so shiny and sparkles on the card! Great job Girl!!

It sounds like there is more fun ahead next week and I am really looking forward to joining 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".
