Hidy Ho Stampers,
It's a day to reflect for me. Today, August 22nd, 2013, is five years after I had my cancer surgery. I hit my five year mark today! I was very lucky. Anyone that has had cancer, knows how important this day is! I have lost several friends to breast cancer over these last five years and I always ask why? God bless you friends! I said it was a time to reflect, here is a card I made at my one year mark…
Wow…5 years.
This was acutally my very first post for my blog.
I did do a card for today. I love the colors and I used my new Envelope Punch Board to make the envelope. I love 3 x 6 cards but since we stopped carrying the envelopes I had to stop making them. But now I can make any size card because I can make any size envelope! :0)
Card with Envelope
Inside (see the cutest pom pom on top I made it with our Baker's Twine)
Close up! Just too cute!
And don't forget if you place a $35 or more order from MY website www.stampladee.stampinup.net between now and August 31st, I will enter your name in a drawing for the NEW ENVELOPE PUNCH BOARD. You NEEEEEED to use Hostess Code VKWDG6BA. If you do not use that code, your order cannot be entered into the drawing. If you have any questions when you are putting your order in, just email or give me a call and I will walk you through it.
Thank you for stopping by!o
Many Blessings to you today, Deb! I hope you enjoy many, many more wonderful years. Great envelope and card! What color is the green you used?
“thank you so much Amy for your lovely comment! Today is such a wonderful day…thinking back to what I was feeling 5 years ago at this time! Not knowing what the next day was going to bring but lots of prayers and LOOK AT ME NOW :0)! Thank you again”
Congratulations for making it to the all important 5 year mark. Enjoy this special day and celebrate in some fabulous way. You deserve it.
“thank you so much Andrea. My Family is UNBELIEVABLE!!!! They too have been though a lot these last five years and my biggest supporters!!”
Congratulations on your important 5 year mile stone. Relish this time and my thoughts and prayers will be with you for many years ahead. Love your creations – great inspiration. Have a great day.
“Thank you so much Mary Ann for your kind words of encouragement. It’s been a great day!”
Deb that is awesome. I too know how lucky I sometimes feel to be alive. Almost 19 months ago I had a brain tumor removed. I was scared to death other than knew God would help me through it if I gave it to him. I was elated to be told it was most likely benign and very happy when that was confirmed.
“Oh my goodness Linda, I’m so happy for you. It’s a scary thing. I’m glad it all worked out, thank you for stopping by.”
I’m so happy for you on your 5 year anniversary. I was diagnosed on May 2011 with breast and kidney cancer and I hope to get to my 5 year anniversary too.
Oh Maria, keep fighting!!! It’s not always easy but I do believe attitude is a BIG part of it! So keep your chin up and do everything they tell you! Please stay in touch and let me know how you make out. I’m praying for you.
