No time to stamp is ok sometimes

I have not had time to stamp or craft at all this week. I do believe I am having withdrawals. Lol I did pick up a new wish kiddo from Make-A-Wish. She is 14 and wants to go on a shopping spree. I love shopping so this is my kind of wish. If anyone has ideas of things you think would make a wish even more special I would love to hear them. We put balloons and sparkling cider in the limo and think we will be making a cd of her favorite music to play in the car. But we always do those things so if you have any ideas please leave a post. I really love being a wish granter for Make-A-Wish and I know just how important these wishes can be. My son’s wish for a computer when he was 12 years old was so great. It helped him pass the time when he was in the hospital and when he was at home for his year of chemo treatments. He is now 18 years old and cancer free… and still using that same laptop computer. God is so good to us, sometimes in the rush of life I forget to say thank you for all my blessings.
Hope everyone has a great weekend and I will try to have something to share soon.

The Play House Rocks!!!!!!







The Make-A-Wish playhouse is done and what a beautiful playhouse it is. It is a 2 room 2 story. The top floor is a bedroom complete with a twin bed and matching beading. Downstairs is beautiful with a fireplace, table and 2 bean bag chairs. Our wish girl is very happy with it.
I will be taking a few weeks off before picking up another wish because this one was so labor intense and summer is our busy time at work. That will give me some time to play in my craft room.

Gina Inspired Birthday


This is a Gina inspired card I made for my oldest son’s 25th birthday. Yup I can’t believe it either…. He has almost caught up to me in age…
I have made myself a pretty little card to go on the back side of my name badge for Make-A-Wish. It really turned out pretty and helps me remember-There is nothing going to happen in my life I can’t handle with God.

Make-A-Wish Send off gift



























I had a chance to make and decorate a few little gifts to leave in the hotel room of a little wish girl. I made her a photo album and an autograph book for her Disney trip. I also got to decorate the hotel room for her send off. I hope she and her family have a wonderful time.

More Make-A-Wish (MAW) Thank You Cards

When it rains it pours… I totally believe that. Last week started off bad and ended worse. The company I work for is not doing all that great right now. We sale RV’s and with winter and the economy ... well you can see where I am going. I have chosen to cut my hours in hopes we won’t have to cut anyone else or let anyone go. We are all like family there. Hum…. Well most of us are family. lol So anyway things may get a little tight around here but we will be fine. Then Mitch (our youngest son) had a doctor’s appointment Friday, we had to be there at 2:00pm and he had already had his EKG and hearing test so we just needed to see the doctors. Well everything looked good until we told them he had a CT done back in May with another doctor. They went and pulled the chart on this and found the report. The other doctor never called us so we thought everything was just fine (and I still think it is). But there is a Hazy spot in his right lung and they want another CT to check it out. The doctor told us she doesn’t think it is anything but just wants to be safe. We have been down this road before and it turned out to be nothing but you just never know. So we pray and keep the faith that this isn’t anything to worry about. We ended up leaving the Hospital about 6:00pm felling like we had ran a marathon.

PCP Sketch Challenge 11/22/08 and more M-A-W Thank You cards

Paper Craft Planet Sketch Challenge 11/22/08 found here: http://www.papercraftplanet.com/photo/photo/show?id=2076575%3APhoto%3A125146






These turned out so cute. They are very fast to make using the oval punch. I chalked the edges and a little around the flower with stampin up pastels. In fact they were so easy I will be making Make-A-Wish a lot of these.









Again thank you to all of you who are willing to help make the Thank You cards for Make-A-Wish. You can find the info here:
