It's the end of April? What?

Here's a wonderful Bestie image from Sherri Baldy.  I am loving her new spring images esp those with all the beautiful flowers.  This one is no exception.  Be sure and check them all out at www.BestiesShop.com I can't believe we are already at the end of April.  WOW. Just a month and a half to Turkey now.  Specifically, just 24 working days until the end of the year.

Hope you are having a great end of April and Happy May!

Happy Anniversary Dear


 I also had to make a hot card for the hubby for our anniversary this year.  This image is from Gary Rudisill.  I hope we do something simple and sweet.  I like staying home together and ordering in, watching a movie, sitting down and chatting.  We are happy that way.

Hope  you all have a wonderful day as well.

 As my anniversary approaches, I wanted to share this card for my DH.  I hope he likes it. "You make life brighter"  Oh how true that is.  He's the best.  well, the best for me.  So, that must be the best, right?  I can't believe we have been together over 22 years, it really seems like yesterday and forever all  at the same time.

Huge hugs to the Hubby.  Love you

Imagination

Imagination is more important than knowledge.  I love that sentiment, though I was reading a funny sentiment somewhere about Alice in wonderland, something to the effect, "I'm like Alice, I just eat everything around me...." well, it was funnier, I am sure if you are on Facebook you probably saw it

I love this stamp line, the Oddballs from Stamping Bella, they are just TOO cute.

Happy Saturday!


 I love this cute little girl stamp from Penny Black.  This is one of the stamp sets that my DH bought me for Christmas.  Isn't it too cute?  I want to say the little girl is named Mimi?  I don't recall there being a name of the girl on the stamp set though.  TOO cute either way.  I am  using some great Turkish Lace to go with the card.


Have a great weekend!

 Here's a great image from The Cat's Pajamas. I do love their stamps, they are top quality for clear stamps.  I own, I don't know, their whole store, lol, well, pretty close,  HA!  This cutie is no exception, it says, "Be the person your dog thinks you are."

Llama fun


 Sharing a hilarious Llama card today. TOO funny.  This image comes from Impression Obsession.  Just makes me smile.  I know the USA has a bit of a llama love lately, over the past couple years, but when I was in Europe a couple years back, I also saw llama themed items there too.  So perhaps the craze was worldwide?

Hmmm, I always wonder if the USA is ahead of or behind the times.

Dreams come true

 Loving this cute stamp from Lili of the Valley.  This dog is probably my favorite character that they sell.  (Though those little girls are a close second.)  I love this napping pup.  Ahh, napping.  My husband got the coolest sweatshirt from his company this winter, "This meeting could have been a nap."  (He works on the tech side for a major mattress company)  HA!  I told his boss I totally wanted one.  Unfortunately they don't sell them. 

Well, here's to napping, one of my favorite states of being, lol
