Thank You Card For My BOSS! What a GREAT Guy!


I had my breast reduction surgery on the 17th. Went back to work within 7 days of my operation. Joe, my boss, knew what I had done so he made sure I didn't lift anything too heavy and he drove me to my SUV after work all week so I didn't fall on the ice. I just had to say "Thank you". I made him this card. The car is the same colour as his car. Oh, and as you can see I bought a few lotto tickets too! He is the best!
I am going to add this card in a couple challenges that are going on right now:

A Present for My BFF! Thank you!

Hello to all my Followers! I had my surgery so it has been hard to scrapbook. Shannon (my best friend for 30+ years) and I had a small fight! Two nights went by and she showed up at my door! :-) NOTHING was said....she just walked in! Everything was good after that! Had my surgery on the 17th and she was there everyday. Having some small issues with the twins (boob reduction surgery)! Sigh! Anyway, I made this book for her! Here we go, hope you enjoy........:-)

A saying.....with some flowers and stuff!....:-) Like that....:-)


This is when we went to Vegas! We had our picture taken in a palm tree! Flip flops......"they" speak volumes in Vegas! Can't go without a pair or two!


This is the palm tree picture! Vegas baby!


Now this is different. There is a picture inside the envelope.....can you tell what the pictures would be? Guess before scrolling down! :-)


Yes, a bear! We drove for a LONG time to see a bear, but we saw one! SCORE!

The next picture is a poem that says......
A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down!


This picture is of me when I was young. Had to add something OLD!



The picture above is Shannon and I (Shannon on the right....me the left). Another thing OLD! Old and new.....just the way to go! I NEED two people in my life! My MOM and my BFF! That's just the way it is!


This is the end of my book. I think I am going to put something on the back cover....haven't decided yet......:-)

I promise when I feel better about things I will add more. Just going through a rough patch! That happens when you were born Friday the 13th! Karma!

I am going to enter a few challenges, which I haven't done forever! Here goes!

Late Valentine's Day Card For Hubby!


Sorry it has been so long since I have posted anything. Work has my days pretty full. I do have 3 projects on the go, which I am going to try very hard to get them on very soon, so please do come back to visit! Going for surgery in less than 12 hours so I will have to see how things go. Yikes! Even this card is late.....giving it to Hubby tonight! LOL

Here is the poem I used on the inside.....:-)

"Through all the changes in my life, your love has remained constant and unconditional. Though at times you may have questioned,worried or wondered... you never stopped loving me. On this day of love I want you to know how very much that means. You who have loved me first, love me best.Thank you for all the love you've shared.
Happy Valentine's Day Hubby"

Another Birthday Card for my BFF! Like this one better...:-)

Had a few drinks and decided to change my BFF's Birthday card....I scrapbook so good when I have been drinking! LOL
I got a Cricut machine for Christmas so I tried it out last night.....yes, while drinking beer! Nothing broke! LOL
Shannon and I have been best friends for 34 years....you don't see that often!
Here is the poem on the inside:
I still remember the first day we met
We were too shy to say much at all
It's funny to think back to that time
Because now we're having a ball!
They say that true friendship is rare
An adage that I believe to be true
Genuine friendship is something that I cherish
I am so lucky to have met you.
Our bond is extremely special
It is unique in it's own way
We have something irreplaceable
I love you more and more each day.
We've been through so much together
In so little time we've shared
I will never forget all the moments
that you've shown me how much you cared.
Friends are forever
Especially the bond that you and I possess
I love your fun-filled personality
Somehow you never fail to impress.
The world could use more people like you
it would certainly be a better place
I love everything about you
You are someone I could never replace.
You are always there for me
When my spirits need a little lift
I cannot thank you enough for that
You are truly an extraordinary gift.
You are everything to me and more
I could never express that enough
Life is such a treacherous journey, and
Without you it would be even more tough.
Our story will continue to grow
With each passing day
Because I trust that with you by my side
Everything will always be Okay.
You are so dear to me
You know I will love you until the end
I will always be there for you, and
You will always (and forever) be my best friend.
