In April I lost my husband to cancer.
May 1st my grandson Colton was born.
In June my great-grandson was born.
In August went to Memphis and toured Elvis Presley home. We also visited Sun Studios where Elvis did his first recording.
We stayed at Tupilo Miss and gambled for three days also That was fun.
Then for Thanksgiving I went to Joliet, Il and spent 4 days with my SIL.
Colton and I went for Christmas and spent 3 days with my sister and a week with my SIL.
And now its Jan4th 2014.
Enough of my rambling but thanks for reading thru my year of 2013.
I saw this project on splitcoaststampers.com http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/res... Its called a box shaped pop-up card. This was so fun to make. Here is mine that I made.
The paper is from K and Company The sentiment is a stamp that I had gotten at M's. Happy Birthday is from SFTN. The bird is from Stretch Your Imagination. This was easy to make. I made this for my SIL whose birthday is January 15th.
Thanks for looking
Have a great weekend and please be safe. I know most of us will be in the deepfreeze or in a snow blizzard. Which ever please stay warm and be safe.
Hugs

ReplyDeleteI tell you Vickie, God took, but he also gave back to you my friend. What cuties you have there!!! I'm glad that you got to do some great things, it helped I'm sure to keep your mind occupied with losing Larry, which still makes me sad you had to go through this my friend. You know I'm here anytime you need me!!! Now I saw this box too on Splitcoast Stampers and thought it was so cool, yours turned out awesome!!! You go girlfriend!! Big hugs!
