hello!


Happy Friday Eve!


I'm poppin' in really quick...live blogging and it's not quite 4 am!

Here's a card that I made for the Neat & Tangled New Release last week that I haven't posted to my blog yet: 


Pink...who doesn't love Pink?


I've had the sequins in my stash forever...but did you see Danielle's fabulous sequins that she is selling in the Neat & Tangled shop?

I used the fun new On The Strip set for my card:


Oh the possibilities....such a fun new set!




Aren't the color combos absolutely delish?!!!!!!!

That's definitely what drew me to Timeless Twine...Raspberry Lemonade and Strawberry Cupcake make me a happy girl!

Check out the FAB happy mail I received from my bloggie buddie, Janice!


Such fun goodies...thanks soooo much Janice!!!!!

I follow a ton of blogs...a ton.  This morning I read THIS over at kind over matter.  It really struck a chord with me {is that the saying?  I didn't grow up with all that stuff}.  When we moved to Seattle, I was in 2nd grade and I was bullied by a girl...forced to give up my lunch money.  For whatever reason I never told my Mom or my brothers.  Here's the interesting thing, we were on the reduced lunch program so I'm guessing back then it was $0.20....who knows, that was a long time ago.  Obviously, what I experienced is nothing like what kids these days go through...it makes my heart break....I loved how the author of the posting, Laura Summers, finished her article:

Don’t let it continue. Teach love. Teach acceptance. … and do it with unceasing intention.
