OMGosh I went to the most amazing craft store this week, I love it!!! This will be my go to craft store from here on out, they even carry Stamping Bella & I just received a huge order from Stamping Bella but of course I had to buy one more. This store is called "Bella Art" & it's in Johnston, R.I. which is about an hour away from me. Sarah & I were in search of DP Friday for the wedding programs & we found one style at one store & the other at Bella Art that will compliment each other inside the folder. We also found the perfect ribbon to go along with the paper at that same store. They will be ordering the paper & ribbon for me this week & I hope to have it in my hands in two weeks or sooner I hope. You know I had to buy some goodies for myself as well, it turns out they also sell Copics....sooooo I bought my first Copics at Bella Art (skin tones to start out) & I also bought a few at the other craft store in Attleboro called "Right at Home", I like that store too but its mostly a scrapbooking store with few stamps but Bella Art has lots of stamps so guess where I'll be spending my money? Yep Bella Art...here I come with my Christmas wish list!!!
Well you all know how busy I will be for the next few weeks so please forgive me if I don't post every day, I will get back to creating cards & gifts after the wedding & have lots in store for you for the holidays. I do have to create a few things for September so I will have to pause wedding stuff long enough to create those gifts & get them in the mail in time but if not they might just be a little late. Oh my, I just remembered I have to make something for my daughter Jessica's birthday coming up in two weeks. I can't forget her!!!
Here is a card I made about 2 weeks ago for a friend of Gina Wrona's (hi Gina!) who needed a little ray of sunshine. I've had this stamp for about 8 months & I had not inked it up yet but when Gina said the woman liked House Mouse I knew that I would finally get to ink this stamp. I liked the way it turned out.
Well that's it for today, I hope you all have a great weekend & thanks for stopping by today!

Awesome Rita!
Carol just loved the card! You really made her day. She is expecting to adopt 2 new kittys after she switches apartments. I don't know how she knew, but she knew I had "asked for a little help" from my friends.
YOU ROCK SISTAH!
