My Sunday Blessings

This was a pretty slow weekend, and not nearly as productive as last weekend was. Sleep hasn't been that great, and that affects everything else in my life. *sad face* And I didn't get time/energy enough to do much crafting at all. I did finally manage to get three cards done by the time I went to bed, but only have one to share with you today.

So....what's new....

Thomas' unit has raised enough money to have a Daddy-Daughter Dance!!! Bella is over the moon excited, and is counting down the days until February 27th!!! They will have a fancy dinner with dancing afterwards. There will also be a professional photographer there! Obviously, the first thing on Bella's agenda was to get a dress!!! There was nothing to be found at the PX (no surprise there!), so we started looking online. Bella wanted a dark pink dress, preferably with some sequins on it. So I searched and searched and gave her about 8 options that fit her requirements and were available in her size. And this is the dress she chose!

Isn't it pretty???

She will also be getting a new tiara too! She already has a lovely pearl-beaded sweater to wear over it, which she can take off when they start dancing.

Here's Thomas, being silly and becoming a real live Sims character, lol!

There are many, many wonderful reasons to participate in What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday!!! One of them is find super cool things like this....

A handmade, one-of-a-kind knitted hedgehog!!!

AND HE'S ALL MINE!!!!!!

"Lunch Lady Jan" is currently making tote bags and little owls as part of a fundraiser for a friend battling cancer. And then she came up with this guy!!! I was so lucky to be up and about early that day so that I could claim him for my own!!!! His name is George, and he's now upstairs in the Stamping Studio along side my favorite Italian hen, Rosalina! I'm not really a stuffed animal person, but these little guys really spoke to my heart and I love 'em!

And last, but not least!, here is the card I finished for Alex. It's an unusual Valentine for my Alaskan living daughter!!! Lots of lovely Lawn Fawn goodies, with a new SU punch for all the little hearts, and colored with Copics.

Like I said earlier, I did manage to get two other cards completed before bedtime, but I haven't photographed them yet. There's soooo much I want to do, but finding the time and energy is a different story. Hopefully this week will be better and include MORE STAMPING!!! :D
