3 years and counting!!

So here it is, a stamp of me!!  WOW.  Celebrating three years post brain surgery.  This wonderful image was drawn by artist Sandra Caldwell.  How special is that?  I was so thrilled.  How many people want to say they have a stamp of their very own, not to mention one made by one of their very favorite stamp artists.  So touching!  I made this awesome card to celebrate 3 years and this is the very card that I took to the doctor (couple weeks ago) when I mentioned going there and giving him and his staff a gift.

    How wonderful to have your own stamp. I think it is fantastic! It even has the 3 on it. Can't forget the pencil and brush. Now if we can just get a punch on there you'd be all set..LOL. I think it is wonderful! (Those sentiments are perfect for it.)
