OSAT Blog Hop – Mother’s Day

OSAT Hop Button

This is my second post today and I hope that you continue to scroll down to view my first post. It’s strange, but the card below this one is how I feel right at this moment.

Mother's Day Spanish

First, let me Thank You for you support. This blog isn’t possible without you my readers. A few days ago I was invited to participate in One Stamp At a Time’s monthly blog hop where we were to create Mother’s Day projects. You may have been directed here from Diane at Stamp and Embellish. Now on to the fun with some awesome Mother’s Day cards & project.

I’m not usually a flower person, but my mom and mom-in-law are and since I earned the Bouquet Bigz L Die I just had to try it out for the first time. You wouldn’t believe how easy it is to make these gorgeous flowers, the pictures don’t give them any justice.

My mom-in-law lives two states across from me, so I’ll be mailing her the card, but I’ll be near my mom and I’ll be putting some cash in the Chevron Bag. I’m not worried about either of them getting a peek at their gifts because they don’t follow my blog and they don’t have computers.

Thank you so much for joining us on the OSAT Blog Hop and please continue on with the one and only fantabulous (fantastic & fabulous) Wynne at My Craft Side.

Fab Friday 19 with Love in a Field of Flowers

Card Sketch Brought to You By: Fab Friday 19

This week I have been reflecting about what this blog is all about.  Is it about my stories, my cards, or both?  I often wonder what makes this blog better than any of the others?  I know that for me, I enjoy reading other blogs not just for the beautiful cards they make that give me inspiration, but for the personal stories they share.  So if you are here just to look at the cards… enjoy them, I make them for you.

For those of you who like the cards, but are also interested in my stories… enjoy them, I write for you too!

On the other hand, do I want to have you join my Circle of Pals?  ABSOLUTELY!  But mostly, I want you to pick up a hobby, any hobby.  Did you know that people who have hobbies, live a happier less stressful life?

I know I am Livin’ the Dream… I am doing two of the BEST things I love “with love“.  What are they?  Keep reading…
