Still working on getting my mojo back with this card using Karen Giron's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #105. I just love Stampin' Up!'s Owl Punch! ... so many possibilities! I've paired him with the the Leaves Sizzlits Die and retired Sunny Day Simply Scrappin' Kit.I'm hoping that the flu bug I've had the past couple of days is behind me now. Looking forward to a day of stamping (and laundry) with the rain outside my window! :)

I can't believe how out of whack I am in my stamp room these days! I've had some time to stamp the past couple of weekends and always hit a brick wall. This card sat at my work station all week unfinished. I finally had a chance to order some new Stampin' Up! product today ... I'm sure that will get the creativity flowing again. I'm hoping to get more stamping done over this long weekend! Wish me luck!I used Karen Giron's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #104, along with Upsy Daisy stamp set, and Night & Day designer paper (retired).RECIPE

I've been asked frequently about my daughter and my mom. I know many of you have continued to keep them both in your prayers! -- THANK YOU!!! My daughter Allie is doing fantastic! She is back to school doing all the things she once did! It's unbelievable to think about how far she's come in such a short time! God really performed a miracle! Allie has even spoken at church about her accident, and how God has been working in her life. They jokingly refer to her as "Pastor Allie"!People ask me all the time how my mom is doing, and I'm never quite sure how to answer that. On one hand, we are very thankful that she is still with us and not in pain. On the other hand, this ugly cancer (glioblastoma brain cancer) is greatly effecting her quality of life. My mom and our family are still in great need of prayer. {thank you}

I made a bunch of these little Valentine purses last weekend. I passed them out to all the ladies at my sister-in-law's superbowl party, and will be giving them to co-workers on Monday. They are so quick and easy and hold one Hershey's milk chocolate nugget. I followed the instructions on Ink Bug's Stamping Fit found HERE.
Although it's hard to tell in the photograph, the chocolates are wrapped in coordinating designer paper.RECIPE
