Lucky!

I honestly feel lucky. I am lucky to have the family that was given to me. Not that we are without drama.....believe me there is plenty, but they are mine and I love them. I am lucky to have a great group of friends who support me 100%. They are wonderful caring people and I love hanging out with them! I feel lucky to have a job and work with fantastic teachers. They are passionate about what they do and care immensely about one another. Me included. I am lucky to have the ability to make things out of stamps and cardstock. It has brought me so much pleasure to create pretty things. And lastly, I am lucky to have all of you. My blog friends. I have been fortunate enough to meet some of you "live" at CHA.......but many of you I will never get to meet face to face. It doesn't matter.......because through these last few years I have gotten to know many of you through your blog posts, comments you've left here, and private e-mails. I can't tell you how much those mean to me. Your visits here.....mean a lot to me. So thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to drop by......leave a sweet comment....or just "check-in." I include all of you when I count my blessings! : )

I have a Crafty Secret's card to share with you today. The sentiment is for all of you......" I am glad to have you are in my life!" : ) This sentiment is from the Couple of Cutie's stamp set. I used an image from the Crafty Secret's Journaling Booklet. My papers are by Papertrey Ink, the lollipop flower is by Prima. I added my own leaves cut from burlap and a Tessa Ann button. I also added some scrunched seam binding.

Just a quick FYI! Next Monday starts our on-line crop over at Noel Mignon's Message Board!! There will be lots of challenges, prizes, chit chat, and tons of fun!!! Hope you can join us!!! : ) Click HERE for more info!


Have a fabulous day my friends!!! : )
