You all make my Heart smile from the out pour of Love ..I had to share this photo of my Bowzer .. Yup thats Rich and Bowzer from along time ago .. anyway the way Bowzer looks in this photo is how you all make me feel "SO HAPPY" I sure wish Bowzer could smile on his own .. I have seen so many other doggies smile on TV and it just cracks me up But until he learns to do it himself I guess we have to help him show his pearly whites .. did you notice Bowzers teeth are sooo straight . Bowzer's smile makes me smile too ..
Yesterday was very productive in the stampin room .. Got my club projects all done and cut and ready to go .. Now I just need 3 more stamp a stack card layouts ...HUMMM One reason it was sooo productive was My friend ANGIE sent me another goody package ..I tell ya she sure is spoiling me and what a surprise it was to see all she sent me .. She got me another cuttlebug embossing folder .. WOWZIE .. She is such a stink pot I tell ya .. Actually I am not sure of the name right this minute But its the flower one ( see below for 1st card I made with it and it is going to Angie ) Angie is sooo very talented and I am soo blessed we have become dear friends. she sent me so many cute things .. the 2 projects she made are sooo adorable , and look what else she sent me MY name cut out in paper .. Of course in my favorite color ..pre cut fancy paper to make 16 or so quick cards .. again in my favorite color , and a Bunch of beautiful ribbon .. can you see the cuttlebug embossing folder ... Maybe this will help
I just had to use the Petal Prints set since I thought it would match the folder really nicely .. I used apricot appeal with Chocolate chip cardstock and ink lightly touched the embossed design with my creamy caramel dauber to bring out the flowers I also used black in for the "Thinking of you" from the warmest regards hostess set . and also my large scallop circle punch . I used my deco scissors from SU! ( retired ) for a little border where the apricot appeal ribbon is Then added a chocolate GG ribbon Bow .. How cute HUH? I am sooo excited about this EB folder so many Possibilities ..Thank you so Much Angie your a sweetie pie and your package will be going out hopefully today since I got my photos uploaded last night .. I told Angie I was not able to upload my CD from my Camera last night and I wasn't going to send her my package until I knew I had the photos of a couple things I was sending her were on my computer .. YAHOO I got all my projects uploaded from my very productive day yesterday ! I am soo Blessed to have so Many friends sending me Cards for my hubby to hand out to the troops, And this was just the 1st day , remember you have until May 1st to send your beautiful cards .They must be to me By May 1st Cause Angie will be drawing the name and announcing the one winner who send the most .. I don't want to give it away BUT OH my you all have been busy stampers and it seems you all are alot like me I have hundreds of cards from swaps fronts and I have received many emails yesterday asking if these would be ok .. WHY yes as long as they are a full card and blank inside All handmade cards are welcome .. You all just blew me and Angie away with all your love and support of our troops .. I have always knew that Stampers are the most generous group of people you would ever meet and this just proves what I have always Known .. I am sure there will be lots of stories from Hubby once he gets all these cards and I will be sharing them all with you right here on my blog .. so stay tuned ..
Thank you all so very much and I am sooo excited to receive your cards & once they start rolling in ( which may be today ) I will share photos of them also .. You see Dawn B emailed me and told me she had already mailed a bunch out yesterday The reason I think I may get them today .. YOU see Dawn just lives in the next city over from me and Local Mail runs very quick YAHOO! Thank you Dawn .. You may all know Dawn She is such a Great friend ..Dawn was the one that pursued Beth on SCS to have my shadow box as a TLC101 challenge for Monday on SCS .. and well then that led into doing the shadow box tutorial for BEATE on SCS.. I call Dawn My Stampin Groupie .. she knows I am totally kidding but really thank you Dawn for all your encouragement and support in my stamping journey .. anyway Thats my Dawn ... yes Great name if I do say so ( wink wink ) which by the way Dawn also has a BLOG to so check hers out ..DAWN SIDE NOTE : make sure you turn your speakers down .. she about gave me a heart attack cause my speakers were up .. you will know what I am talking about when you visit her today ..

Hey, that reminds me I have that petal prints set, I need to break it out (of stamp jail) and use it! Don't you think that would go well with the new Au Chocolat designer paper? We'll see!

Awesome, you are so lucky to get all those goodies from Angie!
You did a wonderful job on the card with your new found cuttlebug folder. Funny, I used the same folder to make belated Easter Cards. I guess great minds think a like, eh?
