Pay it forward

I found this on Deborah's blog ScrappinMamma   who is doing pay it forward and I thought it was a great idea. 

"Pay It Forward" is the idea of blessing someone with a random act of kindness without expecting anything in return. It’s passing on a kindness, hoping that your recipients will do the same, and forming a never-ending chain of goodwill. But it isn’t only kindness, it is also a means to connect and share instead of just keeping it to ourselves.

"I promise to send an original creation to the (1st) 5 people who leave a comment here. They must, in turn, post this on their blog, and send something they make to the 1st 5 people who comment on their status."

How I feel today

I got these new Judith stamps and had to try them!  The embossed stamped design for the background is a bunny slipper.  I feel just like this lady today and the inside says it all.  The inside is a Viva Las Vegas Stamp and describes exactly how I feel about housework!  Anyone else??

card for the Disney/Pixar blog hop link up party

 

I have been making this card for my nieces for their birthdays.  I got the Tinker Bell stamp at a garage sale.  It says Somebody Special.  I colored her with metallic paints, embossed the top and bottom with a cuttlebug embossing folder, added the ribbon and bows.  The inside of the card has an element which twirls, but unfortunately I don't have an example of this as I have already sent the card!  It also says "is having a birthday today" on the inside along with the twirly element.  It is a fun card to send to any little girl (or big girl!)  Thanks for looking!
