Today we have a new challenge posted for you at Freshly Brewed Challenges..

But that's not all! It is our MONTH LONG PRIZE CHALLENGE! 

WOOT WOOT!!!

So come on over and play along. 

We have a fun tic tac toe challenge for you: 

For my card I chose to use the 

 digital image: Far Out

I actually had this card made for a while now and do not think I have posted it ??? (I don't think)

My brain has turned into complete MUSH lately getting ready for Mayfest (a local craft show / festival / kick off to summer / super scary event that my mom and I are participating in for the first time and are only  a little freaked :/ (ahhhhhhh!!!). 

I have completed approx 30 cards this past week and low and behold all of them had three or more parts to the tic tac toe board, but none that made a winning score! HAHAHAH!!! 

Sooooooo that is why I dug out this one :))

I loved creating this card. The felt and stitching and button make for one very HEAVY card, but in 70s lingo, Heavy is not such a bad thing :D hehehehe!!!

Today is a very special day for me. 

Today, 14 years ago, I married the love of my life. He is so amazing and so wonderful. Of course we have our moments ;) but we also have may more moments that make us laugh at the other 'moments' that include both his and my monthly moody times (hehehe! Yes, I am saying he has his two. I won't blame myself for all of them! ;) He is a wonderful daddy. He loves the kids so much. He loves me and tells me all the time how wonderful he thinks I am even when I feel like a total failure. He lifts me up, he prays for me, he tells me I am beautiful inside and out and he means it. He emails me little love notes when I am in here working on blog posts :) and he just does little sweet things that amount to a lot more than any big things you could buy.

He gave me my anniv gift last night around midnight. I wanted this really pretty white travel mug from starbucks but it was tooooooo expensive for me to ok in my head to purchase. Well, when I went to make coffee (Yes, last night at midnight) There it was with a gift card to starbucks. Silly Man. I was so surprised.

He knows me so well! I will not buy starbucks drinks because I feel they are too expensive on our budget. I cant do it without feeling guilty, so when I get a gift card, I use it sparingly and enjoy it as much as possible :)

Anyway ~ thanks for listening to my ramblings... moving on :)

I do hope you will stop by the challenge blog and play along. 

Remember we have LOTS going on this month.
