It's here!!!

My new catalogs came yesterday. woo hoo!! I had been waiting and waiting and then I got busy planning my workshop for last night and forgot all about them. As I was walking out the door, loaded up with stampin supplies, I noticed an innocent brown box on the kitchen counter. Could it be?? Are you kidding me? Nobody told me??! I quickly ran over, ripped the box open, grabbed a fresh new catalog and ran to the car. I was driving my BRV (big red van) so...no, I didn't do much looking whilst I drove, but I did hope for red lights and pulled that baby out at every one to drool! It is absolutely gorgeous!! It feels smaller, cause it is, but it is still loaded with great stuff!!! I won't ruin all the surprises, but there is a crop-a-dile in there! yeeehaw! I love that thing and Now I can demo it! If you don't know what it is, don't worry. Just get your $30 ready. You will be wanting it!!
I promise to post something stamped later today...right now....I'm going back to check on my new catalog. You know, when they are just born like this, they need lots of attention....If you would like one of your own....you know what to do! Get out that calendar and pick a date!

Bradley

Sunday, my best friend died. My sweetheart of 20 years died suddenly from diabetes. We didn't know he had diabetes. It came quick and took him from me. Brad was more than just my husband, he was my best friend. I relied so very much on his strength to guide me and my children through this life. I admit I feel a bit lost without him, already. I had planned on much, much more time with him. Brad and I met on January 28th, 1989. We were both at a nightclub for under age night with our friends that had dragged us there. We were both ready to leave when we were talked into one more dance. That dance changed our lives. We hit it off right away and danced the rest of the night. In face, we were together from then on. I remember that after that night, I waited all day for his call. It was love right away for me. I felt something I had never felt before and knew that he was the one for me. We dated for six months before Brad went to Texas to go to school. We talked a lot on the phone, and I...

Doubles with candy!!

Today is another fun summer day at my house. The kids are running here and there and I'm just trying to keep up. I realized I hadn't sent out Father's day cards yet, so that is what I worked on today. I tried to keep these nice and clean and manly. I remember going to a demonstration at a Stampin' Up! convention years ago where Kevin Theeson and another guy(I forget his name....) talked about 'manly' cards. One of the things they stressed was that guys don't like cards made with pastel cards. They prefer bold bright and earth element colors. I'm not sure if they suggested we stay away from florals too, but I kind of figured that was a safe idea. ;o) For this card I started with some textured Wild Wasabi cardstock cut to 10-1/2 x 5-1/4. That gave me a 5-1/4" card when folded. The striped paper across the center is from a retired SU simply scrappin kit...primary colors I think it was called. I added a strip of Real Red to each side of the stripes for...
