Good morning Try Stampin' on Tuesday fans! Hope y'all are having a great

Though I have to say that it really hasn't been too bad this summer. 

Usually we have many days in the 100's and so far we have only had a few. 

Most of the hottest days have been in the mid to high 90's. I don't know about y'all, but 

I am so very ready for some fall weather! I love temperatures in the 60's!

We have a new sketch and twist challenge for y'all to play along with! It is open

Good morning crafty friends! I hope y'all have all had a great weekend and

are geared up for a great week! We had a wonderful Sunday yesterday! We went to

church where we learned and discusses some great things in scripture, then

we went out to my parents for lunch and a 4 hour game of Phase 10! Which my dad

won even though he started off in last but caught up after a while. I also have

off work today (at least until 4. I'll have to go in if the spine surgeon goes later than

4 although I doubt that'll happen) so I'm going to meet up with one of my sisters for
lunch! We usually don't see each other during the week so I'm looking forward to it!
Until then I'm going to get some cleaning and laundry done. Before I start on those tasks,
I wanted to share a card I made last night following the current sketch from Pals Paper Arts.

Good Sunday morning crafty friends! I sure hope all y'all have had a great weekend

so far! We are about to head out to church this morning. I'm ready for

choir because I've had our special stuck in my head all week.! Been singing and

humming randomly throughout the days. Not that that is a bad thing at

all! I'm ready to sing it in church though! Some of y'all might know it. It's "Greater"

by MercyMe! Such a wonderful song with a great message that reminds

us that we are never too messed up to get to God! He calls us redeemed! That doesn't

mean we will never mess up again, but if we give everything to Him, he work

in us to heal and transform us, and make a new day by day! Before I head out though,
