The above card was sent to me from Carol...http://ourlittleinspirations.blogspot.com/
Carol knows that my favorite color is pink! She has sent me several beautiful birthday cards in pink and I would NEVER get tired of seeing her pretty pink cards. The above card is just perfection, Carol. Thank you so much.
Carol, drove me to her favorite stamp store which has now become my favorite stamp store. I also had the privilege of stamping with Carol several times. She blows me away with her creativity. The cards on her blog are lovely but even more so in person. (she's fun too!)
I had the privilege of meeting Sue in person two times at a stamp show.
Darnell's blog not only has beautiful creative cards and projects on her blog...it's so much fun to read her stories. I always leave her blog with a smile on my face. The above beautiful card also brought a smile to my face. Thank you so much, Darnell, for brightening up my day.
I took. It may also be the fact that I couldn't wait to try a bite before I took a pic!
Indulge on your birthday...order dessert first!
Hubby asked me what I wanted to do today. I told him go to a craft store! I'm sure he didn't expect me to say anything else. He took me to my favorite craft store. (the one that Carol above first took me to) I had a blast there! Finding some new goodies and also meeting several ladies there (They were having a get together in the stores craft workshop area) Some of them were members of My favorite craft forum (Split Coast Stampers) So we got to exchange blog addresses, etc. It is so nice to meet people in person. (Extra special when they enjoy crafting as much I do!)
It definitely made my day! Thank you again, Ladies,(If you get to read this) for letting me crash your party for a few minutes.
Would you believe, Jim also took me to two more craft stores after that. What a guy! He gets a gold star today! It would have been three but I think I missed the closing of the other store by just a few minutes.
Thank you for visiting my blog today,
Blessings,
Jill

Hi Jill, it was so nice meeting you today! And what a small world it is, I know both Carol and Darnell (from online, haven't met either of them in person). I just love how friendly people in the crafting community are :) I'm glad you had a happy birthday and got to visit some craft stores today!
ReplyDeleteI love to hear that you had a smashing good time on your birthday, Jill, doing what you love to do! Applause to Jim!! How lucky you are to even have ONE craft store in your area. All of ours except for Michael's and JoAnn's have closed and I miss them. I think it's neat that you got to meet more stamping friends, too! Your cards from Carol and Sue - and your dessert - are all divine! Thank you for showing mine, too, and for your sweet words and shoutout! Mwah!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful day you must have had Jill - and well done to Jim for taking you to where you wanted to go. Did he get tempted with anything?
ReplyDeleteHappy belated birthday

ReplyDeleteand to answer your question, Maxine. Yes, He did get a little bit tempted and purchased one small item in one of the craft shops. He showed much more control over his finances that I did today.
