Positively Friends

The Positive Thoughts stamp set has some wonderful sentiments that seem very appropriate these last few months. The Covid-19 virus has given many of us time to reflect on what really matters most in our lives, and sending a card can show someone how much you care.

Flower Wave

I participated in a virtual crop last weekend. Oh what fun! It was great to see people I have crafted with in the past, and through the wonders of Zoom, it almost felt like we were crafting together.

Missing My Boy

My son turned 30 yesterday. Yikes!! He hasn’t been a boy for a while, he is a man, but as a Mother, he is my first born, so he will always be my boy. I’m just glad I made the decision when I had kids that since they would be getting older, I no longer need to!!!!
