Happy Veterans Day

I was looking for an official military picture of my husband Rich and couldn't find it so I thought in honor of Veterans Day I would post this scrap page I made. Thank you for those that have served our country and for their families and for those who made the ultimate sacrifice. God bless America!


The photos of us in front of the VW Bug (if you are my age you will remember those) :)  Rich was getting ready to go to sea on the USS America for 9 months and I was pretty sad.  This is why we make scrapbooks to remind us of the good times and the sad times and the trials that got us were we are today.

Thanks for stopping by.


Envelope Punch Board Flower

Check out this video from Stampin' UP! I love it when someone comes up with a new way to use a product I already have.  These flowers are adorable.  So pull out that Envelope Punch Board and start creating.



 Don't forget to use the hostess code SNFVKQCA for November when you are ordering from my website, so you can get a surprise in the mail depending on the total at the end of the month. 


Thanks for stopping by.

I'm Back!!!!

I have been missing in action for a couple of weeks. My husband, Rich and I went of a Caribbean Cruise with my son Eric and his wife Chrissy. I have to tell you it was the best vacation I have ever been on. What an amazing time we all had. I will share some pictures with you. I have been working on gathering them in my Stampin' UP! Project Life album. I will show you the end results when I finish.

We cruised on the Norwegian Getaway

This was part of the rope obstacle course that was obove the ship that I went on. I have to say I surprised myself that I did it. But I have to say it was fun. 


  
One of the many dinners, what yummy food.

The best part (I love dessert) we had dessert every meal.  YUM!!!
So that was a quick glimpse of my trip.  It was 7 days of wonderful!

Next weekend I will be in Tampa at a Stampin' UP! event called On Stage.  I will send pictures and tell you all about it when I get back.
