A nice day!!

  Today, the weather is absolutely wonderful...very sunny and warm...a perfect Summer type day and I love it.
   After my big shopping spree...I am pretty sore today, so most of my day was spent simply relaxing and trying to rest my body.  I also did finish stamping all my images for a Swap I am in and also had a nice call with Lisa after I realizing I had ordered a Magnolia Stamp from her, that I already own.  LOL!   If anyone is looking for adorable Magnolia Stamps -- Lisa has quite a few currently listed in her eBay store and they ALL are available with Free Shipping.  Most of them are from the new Fairy Tale line, which is my favorite.  Click Here to go directly to her store and check out these adorable images.  A couple of my favorites are Princess Tilda, Longing Tilda and Mid-Summer Tilda.   I was so excited to find out that Lisa was selling them and will be sure to check out her store often!  The prices are great for me and the FREE Shipping is a huge bonus, to me.
   After I talked to Lisa, I started working on a new challenge card using 'Loves Me' Tilda, another of my favorites, because it has always reminds me of Summer.   This is for the Summer-Theme Challenge over at Magnolia Stamp Lovers and this is the card I am submitting.

   I think that will probably be the one card I complete today....I'm just wiped out, but one day or being stiff and sore is worth all the bargains I did buy yesterday.  I'm also slowly putting thing away too
   Oh and one last thing -- Special Congratulations to 
'MELANIE'  who was the WINNER of my Card Sketch Challenge over at Colorful Creations.   I am very happy that you won and want you to know that your RAK Surprise Package was mailed out today!   Please come back and join in on more of the challenges soon.  Lisa will be taking over the Card Group and my friend, Colleen will be running the Copic Group.  I know they will both do an excellent job and I'm excited to get back to more crating and hopefully willk do that tomorrow!!

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".
