Uggggg I think the postman is getting slower on the weeks I want my mail... however, he always seems to bring the bills on time. Ugg. I hope you don't mind me playing again....

Okay... I must say that the sketch for this month was from my gallery and I am delighted to win last months challenge. This is a very fun sketch, so I started playing today.. it's too hot to go outside anyways! Ugg

Thanks guys.... I love the doggie card I made... now who do I give it to?

Oh... I a niece who turns 13 next month... now that gives me a few ideas for another card... wish my new stamps would get here.. ugg Once I find a job I wont have this much time to stamp. Hmmmm maybe there wont be a job and I will have to stamp forever! LOL... wouldn't that be the life, but who would buy me more stamps? LOL guess thats not such a great idea after all..

actually, I would love to find a job in a craft or stamping store.... that would be the ultimate! But I dont think they are hiring right now... this darn economy. If anyone hears of a job in the Inland empire area of Ca let me know.... PLEASE...... I don't need to get rich.. just pay the bills.

hmmm, SCS seems to have major issues right now. I played with the new sketch, turned it sideways and I did not overlap the panels, it just looked better without. Artistic licence? hehe
This card is for a friend of my son who has helped him a LOT the past few weeks while he was going through an ugly custody battle and all that is involved. She has been there for him all the way and has been a wonderful influence. I wish I could show you a picture but I usually don't publish pictures of other people on the web, so take my word on it, she looks exactly like the girl LOL, the hair is INCREDIBLE!

I managed to use all four new stampsets that I just got on this one :) fun fun!

very very very cute card.

My heart goes out to the family and the girl in the custody battle. I can relate. My son and I were closer than any mom and son that I have ever known... until I moved out a year ago. It hurts bigtime for me and my son, as we still dont have a visitation schedule anyone can agree on. I send big hugs to your friend, she needs the card I am sure! For me.... well I would be in the bucket crying all the time if it was not for stamping and my stampin friends... Thanks to all!

Jennie Lin Eger Black (soon to drop the black I hope)

ONE HUGE HUG FOR YOUR LITTLE FRIEND.... I AM SURE SHE WILL LOVE THE CARD IT IS DARLING! YOU MADE ME LIKE THAT SET... DARN YOU!
