Hi Stampers :
Happy Sunday friends !
It's a long Sunday Share today :
This past Thursday & Friday we got our Hot tub stained and it seriously looks brand new. Check out the before & after photos.
I have been making my Founder Circle swaps I have changed my mind once again still Halloween theme But the awesome thing with the swap is we can use the card for any celebration .I will post the video while I am at Founders ( LOVE IT! )
The ones I "thought" I wanted to make but changed my mind (again) after making 26 of them LOL! I will have a video on those soon.
This Friday my Father in law & Jody are coming up for a couple weeks and we are looking forward to enjoying the outside since the last time they came up it was snowing and we couldn't sit and relax on the patio .
We have also been busy in the garage . We got the cabinets as a hand me down ~ BUT with a little cleaning ( Thank you to our friends Steve & Linda who helped move them and Linda for helping me clean them up ) they are like new. Here's what those look like so far. I will take more photos when everything is put away .

WOW, Where has time gone to? 7 years ago you were celebrating your 18th wedding anniversary. Jessica was going into 9 th grade. Buckaroo Blue was one of the in colors. You showed us how to do faux marveling. You shared you ups and downs with us. You opened the door to Stampin Up to so many who had no idea what to do with stamping. You gave credit where credit was and still is due to our Heavenly Father God. You have blessed me with so much. Your videos opened so many doors for me to share with others. Just your love for others. 7 years ago Glorious Green was one of Stampin Ups colors. Still have mine. In the last 7 years so much has changed in our world. But one thing stayed the same . Your love to create happiness for others .god bless you for that. HAPPY 7 YEARS OF BLOGGING DAWN. MAY MANY MORE BLOGS TO GO. SHARON STORM VIRGINIA BEACH .

Congratulations on 7 years of blogging. I'm not sure if I've been a follower for the whole time, but pretty close to that long. It's been fun to see all the great cards you've made, follow what's happening in your family, and make cards along with you on your video tutorials. I actually sit in front of the computer with my supplies, watch, and stop the video as I do each step with you, before continuing on. Your videos are always so helpful and I've learned so much. Thank you! Val captainkitty at hotmail dot com

Hi Dawn, I think I have been following you daily for about 5 years. I don't post much, but want you to know that I find your tutorials great. When I need a neat card that moves, or new idea, I know I can find it on your blog and there will be easy instructions!!!! Thanks for all your energy and creativeness!!! Love it
