~Crafting For A Cause & Happy Veterans Day~

Good morning my crafty friends,
Happy Veterans Day
Thank you every military person who has served
from the biggest job tot he smallest you are appreciated! ♥

Yesterday my close friend in New York called and she
updated me about her friend who has Cancer.
She had the idea of making thank you cards for her friend
so she would be able to hand out hand made cards
to the people who have been helping her and so giving to her family.
Here is the BLOG POST
If you feel touched enough to make a few cards,
they do not have to be fancy, just simple like my card below.
♥Please so contact her. ♥

So...guess what?? I STAMPED! LOL
I really am trying to get into stamping,
I am trying so hard! LOL

When D called me I sat down to make some cards
*another weak spot of mine*
I grabbed my Pyrus Kit from Scraptastic Club
Cricut Sentimentals Cartridge
and had some fun!
I love this Pyrus Kit! It is perfect for "thankful" cards,
or even fall scrapbooking. I love the fall colors.
I wanted dimension but not thick dimension because they
need to be mailed without extra cost to her, so I used my
Glue Arts Extreme Squares...hello! Perfect and my cuts won't fall off!


I know I have been talking about them alot lately, but
I am so happy with the results! Good stuff!
*no they are not paying me LOL*

Ok that is it for me today,
I have new furniture coming between 10 and 2pm. Nothing
like a set time LOL I think it's time for momma to make a hot breakfast! ♥

~Have a beautiful day~
~Thanks for caring so much and stopping by~
