I received this lovely award from a sweetheart of a lady named Nancy Keller.
She made my day with this lovely award and the sweet comments she left about my blog. '
THANK you Nancy! This totally made my day!

Oh man, 8 things about myself?

HMMMM

Here goes

1) I love coffee (duh right? or DER for some of you lucky peeps who have talked to me on the phone ;)

2) I apparently call everything a THING instead of it's name. No wonder my husband gets confused. "honey, go get me that thing!" lol!!!

3) My best friends are in my computer. I still can't figure how to get them out :(

4) I am Pentecostal Holiness (no, we do not participate in snake handling. lol. I had someone ask me that recently, so I had to throw it in there. Apparently that is still a rumor going around :/ lol. You can ask me anything about what I believe. I would love to share with you. :)

5) I LOVE to sing (even if I am not that good) with my husband. We sing on the praise team sometimes at church

6) My BFF&E&E does not drink coffee!!! Yes, she lives in my computer too!!! I miss her. :(

7) i have a pain in my left hip.. it acts up after sitting too long and when I get up I have to drag it and hobble around the house a few minutes before it stops, lol. Argh matey!!! Call me peg leg Heather!

8) FINALLY!!! I am making myself sound "Loony Nutty" lol!!!
hmmmmm...... I think I still know The Little Mermaid and Beauty and The Beast cartoons by heart and can say it along with them.... sad. :) lol!!!

I have no idea who to pass this on to! I have so many wonderful friends and have met so many new people through my website and challenge blog.

TGF day

hi everyone!!! If you are looking for the Tellen's place blog hop, please scroll down to the next post.

i have a few cards to share with you tonight. I have been participating in the TGF CHA challenge, and have been having a blast. Sadly dut to unforseen circumstances the challenge is come to an early end. You can still snag the freebie of the cutie Prince Ian while it lasts!


For the Toby card I used heidi grace double sided paper, inkadinnkado chalk and a prismacolor marker in putty. I kept it simple, but still bright and fun. I am sending this card to my beautiful friend Stacy. She makes me smile and I wanted to send her a smile in return.

The Challenges for this card are: Crafty Creations: blog hop celebrations

Crafty Creations is having a FUN and Generous and filled with sweet inspirational Celebration cards. Be sure to check it out!!! It was one of the bestest hops ever!!!

Truly Scrumptious: Sketch

My Prince Ian card was created using DS American Craft paper, my cricut, a printed sentiment, prismacolor markers, bic markers and copics. He was an absolute blast to color up. I really thought of prince charming with this one and wanted to make his hair black. I am not a pro by any stretch and need a lot of practice, but am still happy I tried.

the challenges for this card are: Card Patterns: Sketch

Also today I was so surprised to have been given this award from my friend Sandra. she is such a wonderful and sweet person and I am so blessed to call her my friend. Thank you for your love and constant support. You always make me smile.

For Me??

My too sweet and loving friend Carolyn gave me this award. I have to say that I read her post and felt as if the same words were coming out of my own mouth. Life got to me the past few months and my 'blogging' or commenting rather has slacked off. I am getting back in the swing as much as I can and I DO check everyone's blogs, read, smile .. but sadly have not had as much time to comment as I had in the past. I do not feel as deserving of this award as I would like to, however I am excited to pass it on to some of my wonderful supportive friends. Carolyn, you my dear would take the top spot. I wish you knew how amazing you have been, even with your difficult times ~ you have helped me through the worst of mine. I am so thankful, grateful and blessed to have you as a friend. I treasure you and love you so much!

I chose to award this to:

Heather T.
Cassandra
Adeal
Stacy
Jenn

I could go on and on forever!!! Thank you again Carolyn! This meant so much to me! ( you all know that I would just go to my sidebar and link you all!!! but we are all friends and I figure that some of you will award friends that I would as well ;) ))
