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.

I made this mini album for the challenge on Facebook! Again,
Scrappy Jak sent supplies for the December challenge! I posted them today on Facebook and thought I would share!

Scrappy Jak's December Challenge!

I made these two cards for a challenge on Facebook! Scrappy Jak sent the card stock and ribbon to me and asked to make two cards for the month of December using her supplies! She came up with a brillant idea to have a "CARD OF THE MONTH CLUB"! I posted them today on Facebook and thought I would share!

A little set back....sigh!

Sorry I haven't posted anything in awhile.....I rolled my car last Saturday! Just trying to get back on track! I do have things to post tonight! Please stay tuned to all my favorite followers! Hugs! :-)
