Never Settle for Just one Scoop! Ha! This adorable Oddball stamp from Stamping Bella is just TOO adorable. I love her. I also added some bright colorful Turkish lace to the mix and beautiful flowers. I thought this card was just perfect for a bright summer day in Texas. Heaven knows with 110 degree weather, we all need some ice cream!!

Never Settle

wonder woman
Happy July everyone! I can't believe I am almost half way through my vacation at this point. WOW. I may not have mentioned it before, maybe I did. I got a copy of Babbel to learn some Turkish starting at Christmas time. I was pretty good at doing at least five lessons or more a week. OMG Turkish is SO HARD and so very different from English. I feel like I hardly learned anything, lol. My memory is like swiss cheese! I don't know if that's from old age (ha!) or brain surgery. I blame both!

Live like there is no midnight!
Here's an awesome image from Stamping Bella's Oddball stamps. I just LOVE this stamp line. This one is no exception. Isn't she great? It says, "Live like there's no midnight." Lol, I am way past that now a days, it should say something like, Live like there's no 9pm. HA! Well, maybe not that extreme. On vacation I take naps I wake up in the middle of the night and do things, (esp because of jet lag) so I am not nearly on a schedule as I am on school days, when 9 really is a bed time!

Balance
Here's a great stamp from Stamping Bella Oddballs. I just love that stamp line. "Life is all about balance" Now that's the truth. You are talking to someone who seems to just FALL down at least once a darn year. Perhaps I need to head this saying about BALANCE!!

Hogs'N Kisses
I thought this stamp set from Stamping Bella's Oddballs line was just TOO funny. They also have a sentiment stamp set to go with it. They all make me laugh. I used some gorgeous turkish ribbon to add to the base of this card, it matches just perfectly. So, Hogs'N Kisses everyone!

Elvis
Here's a hilarious card from Stamping Bella, using an Oddball, which is probably my favorite line of their stamps. I had to use Elvis' famous line, "Thank you, Thank you very much!" to close out the month. Isn't he just adorable? I am using some great Turkish lace in Blue along with some adorable embellishments that I got in Turkey as well.

Kindred Spirit
Here's an adorable image from Stamping Bella. I just love this stamp line, the Oddballs, from that store. They are just TOO cute and quirky. I also added a little fun lace to go with it. I can't believe we are almost to the half-way point of this month! WOW, it sure does go quickly doesn't it?

Thanks Doctor!
One of the most important things this month of course is to say a HUGE Thank You to my favorite Doctor, Dr Sami Aboumatar of Austin Epilepsy. He's the doctor, (epileptologist), who first told me he would "fix" my seizures and then actually did. I can't tell you how many doctors told me they would help me before. He's a brilliant Doctor and a wonderful man. What amazing work he does. I will never cease to be thankful to him and his staff.
QUESTION OF THE DAY:
Do you make handmade Christmas cards? I realize I have many good friends who aren't Christian, so it's helpful to know if you make them or not. I also know several people don't care to make Christmas theme cards for whatever reason.
For me, it's just overwhelming and after doing handmade Christmas cards for the family and promptly seeing them thrown in the trash, I started giving them store bought Christmas card again. At any rate? Christmas? yay or neigh
see the current winner list HERE
I haven't picked winners for Feb 2-Feb 4th, so if you haven't left a comment on those days, go back and leave one to be in the drawing!
Have you signed up on Feb 1st? prizes are drawn from there every day this month, so be sure to leave a comment there! GO THERE

Be happier
Well, it's Friday, we're all exhausted and have one day to get through before the weekend. I thought this hilarious stamp from Stamping Bella's Oddball stamp line was perfect for the day, "The less you give a damn the happier you will be." LOL, now I know no one around me is really going to stop caring, but the sentiment still made me laugh.

Hay There!
Sharing this hilarious card I made using an image and sentiment from Stamping Bella's Oddball line. I do love those stamps. TOO FUNNY. It says"Live like someone left the gate open!" The background of the card says "Hay there" I also added some gorgeous Turkish lace to the card.
Check it out, I'd love your feedback. Right now I am doing small amounts with pieces big enough for cards and smaller (like tag sized), but if you LMK what you want, I can make a pack just for you!!

Imagination
Imagination is more important than knowledge. I love that sentiment, though I was reading a funny sentiment somewhere about Alice in wonderland, something to the effect, "I'm like Alice, I just eat everything around me...." well, it was funnier, I am sure if you are on Facebook you probably saw it

Back to the doctor....
I have no idea what is really wrong with it, but it sure does hurt like the dickens, OUCH, even typing on my computer. Let's hope we can get this under control before school starts up, that means, three weeks! EEEK.
