My First Award! Yah!

I am so excited! I am a scrapper because I love creating interesting, sometimes unusual, and hopefully a few pretty layouts, cards, and other altered projects. Also, I found this craft to be extremely relaxing! I have always been fascinated with paper, crayons, etc... So, "playing" with these things as I did when I was a child is like being given the most wonderful gift.

The Award I received is from my Alabama friend, Diana. Please take time to visit her Ausome Blog at http://dianasausomecreationsetc.blogspot.com/ You won't be disappointed. On her blog, she shares some extremely beautiful, creative cards. Not only do we share a love of card-making, but we are both GRANDMOTHERS!!!! (She shares pics of her granddaughter who is such a cutie!) Diana is also a very gentle, sweet-spirited lady that leaves me the most kind, heart-warming messages. The "Gift of Love Award" has no specifics; you must simply pass it on to 5 people. So, thanks Diana, I will pass this lovely award on to some ladies who always share their "gift of love" with others:

Aymee - http://southernbellescrapper.blogspot.com/ - my very beautiful, creative, talented, (and so many other wonderful things) daughter.
Michele - http://alighttouch.blogspot.com/ - a fellow educator, friend, and talented scrapper I met at JS (we both love to travel also)
Karen - http://alighttouch.blogspot.com/ - another very sweet spirited lady who is always kind to others and a great scrapper
Karen B. http://alighttouch.blogspot.com/ - the most jovial person I know, an awesome card maker (and layouts too) and stamper, and new Cuttlebug DT member
Kerri - http://kerrikr8tions.blogspot.com/ - a beautiful lady who has a great blog which shows off her creativity and new Cuttlebug DT member

Be sure to stop by and visit all of these wonderful ladies. It is certainly worth your time to visit!

I just have to be such a grandmother and post a pic of Carter with his new "Swip and Swide" (Slip n Slide). He had such a great time!

Have a Great Day,

Carol :)
