A Day of Thanks

Hello Friends and Stampers,

I hope everyone who celebrated had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Did you go out shopping for the Black Friday Deals? Yikes! I'm staying in! I have plenty of scrappy things to do and I am not buying anything this year that is worth the small savings for all the crowds and traffic. But I do like to hear about everyone Else's experiences, lol.

It's a Happy Holly-Day over at the Loves Rubberstamps Inspiration Blog! I hope you have today off as well.

Okay well it's close enough to Thanksgiving that I thought I would give it one more card, lol. This goes along with our current challenge for Thanksgiving, Thank You, Thankful. I also thought I would try a CAS design, but now I feel like there are layers missing, lol.

Have you seen all the NEW ITEMS that were added to the store? I know the Some Odd Girl fans are going to be very happy!

Have a great day and don't forget to check in tomorrow for Indah's Video Tutorial Post.

I still get Butterflies

Yippee Skippee it's a Holly-Day Friday!

It's my turn to show you some Inspiration from Loves Rubberstamps.  I have done a quick and easy card today with Clearly Sentimental - You make my Day, and added some Die-namic Butterflies.  I stamped the sentiment in Memento Black Ink and added some Card Candi Ritz that I colored with my BG13 Copic Marker.   I used the best glue ever and candi fix. Have you stopped by the New Items in the store lately?

So how was your Valentines Day?  Since I am working this week and we are running into a hectic schedule, we decided to put off our celebration until tonight.  We are going out to dinner for a romantic Italian meal with our youngest son, lol.  I feel very grateful and fortunate that the men in my life do very loving and romantic gestures on a regular basis, not just Valentines Day.  I cannot even remember how many Valentine Days I spent being single.  It sucked.  lol.   As a single parent it was the one day of the year where I really had to stop and ask myself if I was really happy being alone.  Sometimes the answer was a box of See's Candies and "YES" lol.  I feel very blesses to have found true love and the right guy to share my life with. 

So what are your weekend plans?  I have more plans than I have time this weekend, lol.   I hope whatever you are doing, you are having some fun along the way.

Thanks for Looking and for your kind Comments.
