Back after a long absence.....

I haven't blogged in a very long while.........a good friend has been battling cancer this year, hubby has had some serious health issues and we welcomed a new granddaughter into our hearts this fall. Have been perusing some blogs that are participating in the Magnolia Christmas Hop and ran across this awesome blog candy by Kylie. Thought this might be a good time to get back into posting. This candy closes on December 20th, so hop on over while there's time and take part. Kylie will inspire you with her creativity!

Happy Birthday Michelle!

My baby girl turns 32 tomorrow...........how the heck did THAT happen??  Enjoyed a nice lunch with her today and loved seeing her little 'baby bump' now evident - she and her wonderful husband are providing me with another grandchild later this year and I couldn't be more pleased!  Made her this little card and thought I would enter it into LOTV's Spring Challenge #90  It has a wonderful, sunny spring feel to it so I hope it qualifies.  Just recently purchased my first shipment of seven LOTV stamps and they are fabulous!!  (You notice I said 'first' shipment - I'm sure it won't be my last!!)  The weather is finally starting to warm up here in Southern Ontario and I'm hoping to get some yard work done tomorrow.  Enjoy the rest of the weekend everyone!!

Jacque B. is celebrating and would like us all to join her!!!

The lovely and very talented Jacque has been selected to be part of the Design Team for Lili of the Valley. They obviously know what they're doing over there as we, who have all been witness to Jacque's amazing creations, can attest to!  The new collection is being released on January 11th, but in the meantime, Jacque is offering her own Sweet Stuff' in celebration of her exciting news, which will run until Sunday, January 9th!!

Also, in her typically 'sweet' way, Jacque is offering a Follower's Sweet Stuff prize as a thank you to all who have helped her in her own personal journey this past year.  Speaking for myself, this was VERY easy to do as we cheered from the sidelines for this wonderful and inspirational lady to successfully cross the finish line.  Jacque, YOU ROCK!!!  This sweet candy will be running until January 7th.
