A Birthday Card

For My Mom!

Tommorrow is my Mom's Big Day!

She's 57 years young.

I made this card for her

and I am super late mailing it.

Sorry Mom!

I have gotten a cold and feel yucky.

I have to apoligize for the

quality of my photo.

I don't know what wrong with my camera!

Jason's at work

so when he gets home

 let's hope he can fix it for me.

I really don't have the money

for a new camera.

Because I have new stamps, paper
and big shot goodies to buy!

Missing in Action

YES! I was and now I'm back.

December is really hard for me.

Last Christmas I had a bad MS flare up

had to be taken by ambulance on Christmas day!

It seems my MS flare ups happen around the holidays.

So this year I desided NO STRESS in December.

We had a very stress free holiday and so far so good.

I think I should just hibernate in December.....

and wake we when It's over!

The new year is around the corner and I have some

great ideas for my Blog in 2012.

Over the next few days I will be sharing

some exciting news for my blog.

Enjoy today's card and don't forget to visit

the Stampin Queens Sketch Blog for

more inspiration!

Hearts in December?

I'm wondering why

I stamped a card with hearts

in December?

I know it's Christmas time

and I should be making

Christmas cards...

but

This stamp set was on my desk!

I was just too lazy

to go find my

Christmas Stamps.

I should have some

Holiday cards to post Friday!
