Spring Is Here!!!!

Hi Everyone,

I think Spring is finally here! This is one of my favorite times of the year. The cherry blossom trees and all the other spring flowers are so beautiful especially after that long awful winter we had. I'm sorry that it has been so long since I have been in touch. I have been going through some trying times. I found a lump in my breast back in January which turned out to be a cyst but during the ultrasound they found another abnormal lump. After a needle biopsy they decided that I should have it removed. Good news everything came back normal, no cancer...YAHHHHH!!!! Remember ladies that it is so important to go for your yearly mammograms and checks. It is also very important to do regular self exams. Thank goodness mine turned out to be nothing but if it had it was found early and was very small.


Okay enough of that! Isn't this the cutest card. A very good friend of the family, Donna sent this to me after my surgery. It was such a great surprise to get this in the mail. It made my day!!!
She used the SU "Just Buzzin' By" stamp set, and the new Eyelet Border Punch.





This is such a cute stamp. I find it hard to find stamps when making cards for guys. I made this card for my Dad for his birthday. I actually cased the idea from Split Coast Stampers (sorry I can't remember who's site it was from). This is the "Under the Stars" stamp set. I also used one of new favorite designer papers, Parisian Breeze. It has a great texture and is a bit heavier than the other papers. It is also great for designing guys cards. I also used my new Oval Punch and Scallop Oval Punch.

I love this new stamp set from the Spring Summer 2009 Catalogue. It is called Friends 24-7

and I also used the new Friendly Words Wheel. The two go so well together. These cards are going to be a class that I will be offering. Details coming soon!

I'm so glad that you stopped by. Let me know what you think of my New Blog Design.

Enjoy your day, Michelle
