Convention shares

My daughter has once again my camera so I can't take any pictures of new projects. okay, I admit it...I gave it to her when she left for Busch Gardens. I wanted some pictures of her trip. In the mean time, I took tons of pictures at convention so, here is one of them. This awesome door was on display at the Stampin' Up! headquarters in Riverton. I just loved the simplicity of it! The 'happiness' is one of our new Decor Elements. These vinyl 'stickers' are SO easy to use! You can put them on just about anything! I have an 'extra' french door from one of my projects, so I just may try something like this. ( I know, who has an extra French door? Only me....)
In other news, my dear son Ben made me laugh today. Well, he makes me laugh every day, but this one was too cute...
Dillon : "Ben! Come see this raccoon!"
Ben : "okay, but you know he will attack?!"

I don't know why, but it sent me into giggles. It was almost as funny as when my dh texted me yesterday saying he would take over several of my jobs, one of them being planning for my stamp class tonight. Such the funny guy. I almost believed him til I got to that gem.
have a good day!

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...
