Sweet Day...

Happy Thursday sweet Bloggers..
I had the most relaxing day yesterday and it felt good. My husband went to work a little later today so we had a great morning. So looks like my Thursday is going to be awesome.  
I love those good days. Thank you Lord.

So last night I made this card for the The Crafts Meow June Sketch Challenge, while watching So You Think You Can Dance last night... Wow those people can dance. I love it. Can you image all the calories those people loose...what great exercise.  Well here is my card...I hope you enjoy.
Recipe:  The Craft's Meow Beautiful Spring and Sew Happy, Ranger Jenni Bowlin ink pads, Simple Stories Summer Fresh 6x6 paper pad, Neenah white card-stock, Sizzix embossing folder, Gel Pen, Ranger Artist trading cards, Misc Ribbon, Scotch advanced tape glider and Recollections foam adhesives.
If today was July 14th I would be on a plane to CHA Chicago. I can't believe that it is only a month away. I have been shopping and have only found ONE shirt. Can you believe that.  Boy it is weird how that works. When you really want something you CAN'T find it. So I am going to wait a couple of weeks and maybe there will be some new stuff out. But I did find some cool Hello Kitty shoes...
Yes...I know I am 36 and still love Hello Kitty. 
Hey what can I say I am a big kid at heart.  
Well Thanks for stopping by..
Have a crafty day.
