Summer Bummer (Request for greetings) Re-posting

Just moving this to the top for a few days, she would love some happy mail. Thanks, Sara

My DD found out on Monday that for the next thirty days she will need to wear this immobilizing brace, she is so destroyed over the fact. We found out a few years ago that all of her knee pain was caused by Osgood-Schlatter Disease disease, she is just growing too fast basically and her bones need to catch up. Well this past Basketball season she had a fall and what happened was when the tendons pulled away from the knee they fractured a small piece of bone off with it. She kept telling us the pain was getting worse make me an appointment so we finally got in to the specialist and this is how she is going to have to spend the next month. When she found out that her first season of Volleyball was not going to happen I thought she was going to cry. She has also been looking forward to our Church trip to the cities now she said she does not want to go. I just feel so bad for her she is so active (that is a big part of the problem with this disease) to be reduced to doing almost nothing is extremely hard on her at this time in her life when she is growing up to a teenager it is not easy. So as her Mother I am asking all of you that can to send her some cheer up wishes, she is so excited when I get fun things in the mail, this will surly make her time move faster. Thank you so much you can send your cheer up wishes to
my DD at the following address:
Donna Paschal

Monroe, SD 57047
Thank you in advance for all of your kindness.

Divine Flowers

My Sister came across these stamps at a garage sale they are by "Judith" she is from Minnesota and that is about all I know about this set of stamps. I think there was a total of 15 stamps in the package. I was playing with some retired colors yesterday, I loved these so (Forrest Foliage and Eggplant Envy). My Sis also found some retired papers so I used them both here as well. I need to start following her to Garage Sales, she seems to always find the good craft stuff. I added a flower clip and used my ticket corner punch for some added detail and I embossed the background with the Divine Swirl CB folder. I love the outcome.

I am waiting for some new stuff to arrive and so I am going through some unfinished cards and finished cards and cleaning them up. I came across these yesterday and I laughed so hard, these are probably three to four years old. (It is frightening to look back and see where you have been.) Okay, so I took some time and took these cards apart and tried again so here they are redone years later....

What a busy weekend along with the Birthday Celebration for the Wish Rak group I also worked on some craft show items. I decided I am going to try another run this season, now that I am getting the Rubicoil this is going to be great!! Anyhow I used up all of my red tacky tape sheets that I purchased at Archivers in May, BOO HOO! Good thing we are going to the cities in July, I will be getting more then. (Can't find it in our area if you know the hiding place for this stuff please send me an email.) So ten pens and six lip balms later I had a great start. Here is what I learned after the fact... I could have used my Xyron to put the Designer paper on the pen that would have saved me tacky tape and I could have had 10 more pens and six more lip balms out of the three sheets that I purchased. Oh well I know now for the next time.

I used Recollections Designer paper from SU and Making Memories paper from Michaels to complete the projects
