Happy Sunday ...

Hi Stampers :

Today is  Rich and Mine  20th Wedding Anniversary  Happy Anniversary  Sweetheart ~20 years~ Holy  Moly  that flew by  super fast . I love Rich  more  today than ever   But not as much as tomorrow (  Cause I know  I love him more with each passing day ) . What a wonderful Man  I have got  to share the past 20 years  of our life together.   He will be  home  again right before  Thanksgiving He will be home for Jessie's 16th Birthday  party we are having  for her this year. He sent me these Beautiful  flowers  LOOK  they are my  favorite color too   ..  What a sweetheart  !!  Cause if you  remember back  He got  me These   too when he was home  This past July.

 I love you Sweetheart !!

This past Friday Jessie & Josh  had their  1st Month  anniversary  You remember  how special  that 1st month was when you  were dating huh?  Jessie and I also went   dress  shopping  for  her  fun   Homecoming / Snow coming / Junior Senior  Banquet  with Josh  which is approching very soon . She has double  the events this year since she will be going with Josh to his to.  She is sooo excited .  Anyway  the project posted today is what she made for Josh  on their  BIG day . Sweet huh? A PAPER PHOTO BOOK filled with photos of them .  Want to know what he gave her ? A  DVD he made of  him  talking to her  and  telling her how  much he loves having her in his Life & How happy  she makes him  . OH my   golly!  Josh wanted  me to watch the DVD with them as he played it  for her  BUT to tell you  the truth  I   didn't  want to be a BIG  crying mess  in  front of them .. He  then added this SONG  by Taylor Swift with   photos  of them together .  What a Treasure Josh made for Jessie .. To think Jessie  and Josh  have been friends for at least 8-9 years  before the  "BF & GF thing".

Oh my  yesterday  I was  planing my  Next Stamp a stack event  Thank you  to everyone that  has asked me when  the next one will be available ..  This  event  will be  announced very soon  and will go along with the  World Card  Making day  which you  can view  the  flyer HERE  stay tuned for my Stamp-a-Stack  announcement  coming  very soon .

Have a Fabulous Sunday  girls ..

Love the people in your life

Until  later ... happy Stampin!

What a Wonderful Time ..

Hi Stampers :

Sorry for the delay today in posting .. I am sooo tired..  Super late night last night  at my Uncle Bernies  wedding  NO complaints  cause we had a Blast ( as usual )  Todays Card is the  card I gave to  Uncle Bernie and Ashlee I used the ALWAYS stamp set. I soften  it up with white Craft ink  on top of the  embossed  heart  and then along the edges  also .. I  could have chose Real red  for my  card But  wasn't  going for the  bold brights  color  so I grabbed  Rose red  instead  with Chocolate chip  Their  wedding was  Red , Black & White  which was sooo

beautiful ..  For my Sunday Share  I thought I would share some pics from the Happy Day ( You can click on any photo to  enlarge  your viewing.)

  I thought I would share  this  photo of  2 of  my  room mates cards  we made for M&T's  at our  meeting  while at convention  are they Cute or what ? Love them  and it was  alot more fun stamping with them ..  Hey  can you notice that we used very "fancy designer " stampin  Grid paper to stamp on ..( Yes they were  from the convention bath room / paper towels  Pretty clever huh? Hee! Hee! I got a Kick out of that  you  can  check out more photos  from convention HERE

Most of you  that met me at convention I shared with you  the BIG excitement I had   the day before I left for  convention . My sweet Bowzer  got sprayed By a skunk  and Here he is  getting  what we thought  would  work  a  Tomato sauce  bath

 ( just a hint this  does NOT work to take smell away and Plus Bowzer loved  eating the sauce  )   after I  got to   SLC and my  roomie DeMaris ( Hi to my  roomie  girls  Mary , Gail & DeMaris) DeMaris  shared with me  what she used  to get the Skunk smell out of her dog .. So mark this down  cause It works ..

1 Big bottle of  peroxide

1 Cup of baking  soda

2 TBS of  dish soap ( I used  Dawn of course)  wink wink

Get  your doggie wet 1st and then mix  all your goodies  together and then  pour on to  dog rubbing it in  their hair  then rinse off Thanks   girlie  for this tip  you  helped  save the day . 

Have a Great Tuesday Stampers and  I will see you  all again tomorrow

Until later... Happy Stampin!!

Convention Goodies #5

Hi Stampers:

  I used the Just rite Stamps  for the label  on these photo albums.  These stamps  are just perfect for whatever  greeting you  want to make .. BUT   these are not swaps  they  are  gifts  I got to hand out  at convention  with a  extra one  for my  dear friend ROXY  which by the way  this is her  1st convention  so I made  up a special  gift bag filled with  a bunch of goodies just for her. Along  with the  photo album ( with Bella Rose  and Kiwi kiss and ridding hood  red )  another  one of the  goodies I made  for her  gift bag was also  flower pen  which you  can view that video HERE

Have a Wonderful day stampers .

Until later... Happy Stampin!!
