Hi everyone,

Sorry I am so quiet. It’s always hard for me to get back into my stamping rhythm after being on vacation. I think I will give myself until next week, when the kids start school again before I start stamping again. I had a wonderful time in San Antonio over the Holidays and have re-read some of my favorite book series (check one of my pages for more info on my favorite books).

I do have a post coming up on Saturday. I hope you know that Spellbinders has a Blog hop going on this week showing off soon to be released dies.

Random.org picked #122 as the winner for my latest blog candy. That’s Rebekka with this comment:

While I have nothing new to share, I have some exciting news. Simon Says Stamp is featuring two of my cards on their blog today. I hope you have time to check it out and say hi.

Thank you to everyone who commented on my blog recently. That brought a big smile to my face. I think that’s how I will give away my blog candy from now on to make sure one of my readers and blog visitor will receive that candy. Random.org picked #76 (after picking two numbers that had less then two comments + candy comment). That’s Evelyn in Oregon who wrote:

What a haul! I’ve followed your work on SCS and wherever I can find you. Unfortunately, I seem to be one who admires from afar rather than creating as I want to.

Evelyn, email me with your mailing address and I will send the goodies out to you!
Have a great day! Hugs and smiles

Happy Black Friday! I hope you had a save and fun shopping trip. I finished the Christmas shopping  for my kids (Apple.com) and me (Amazon.com, new camera: Canon Rebel T4i!) online. I LOVE shopping online instead of going out in the crowded stores.

Spellbinders posted a cute video photo collage of our trip to Arizona today. You can find it here:

Sorry I have been quiet lately. I was stuck in some book series. I promise not to start any new ones anytime soon. I love reading, but when I do, I get nothing else done.
