3 Girl JAM Design Team-Make A Wish Card


Hi everyone!

I'm here today with a project for 3 Girl JAM!


I am sad to say that this is the last post that I will be doing as a 3 Girl JAM Design Team member.  The term is coming to an end and I'm moving on to allow new creativity to come in and show off the yummy crinkle ribbon.  I want to thank Julie for giving me an opportunity to share my creations with everyone.  I also want to thank my design team sisters for all the inspiration :)


For my last post I'm sharing a simple card using the white crinkle ribbon!  I used the awesome 3 Girl JAM Bow Maker to create the perfect bow!


The wand came from the Silhouette store and the Make A Wish stamp set and Flag Dies come from Jaded Blossom.  The paper is Bazzill and Echo Park Dots & Stripes Soda Fountain Collection.



Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to check out 3 Girl JAM!



Have a fabulous crafty day!

A Special Post

Hi everyone!


Today is a very special post and project I'm sharing.


Most of you know me by now....short and to the point posts and very rarely do I actually post something about my personal life.  I'm not one for posting personal matters for attention or airing my laundry for all to see.  Today I'm sharing something going on in my life....

A few weeks ago my mommom (grandmother) was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 77.  This is the first we have come across breast cancer in our family so it shook us all.

Because of her age, her heart and the medications that she's on, the doctors decided no chemo.  She under went a partial mastectomy and began radiation on Wednesday.  She will do this 5 times a week for 6 weeks.  I'm the one that takes her back and forth and we are already getting into a nice routine.  Mommom has been a trooper through the whole thing and her one request was that when she is done we take her to the beach lol.

As for my project....
My mommom wanted to mark on a calendar the countdown to the day she finishes radiation.  I told her I could do something better.....




Recipe:
Papers are from stash
30 Boxes & More from My Scrap Chick
Ribbon Shaped Card from The Cutting Cafe
Posy twine from Trendy Twine




Each day when my mommom comes home from radiation starting tomorrow she will pull off a ribbon.  Each ribbon has something simple written to her from the family.  Jokes and words of encouragement :)




Thank you so much for stopping by today!



Have a fabulous crafty day!
