Congratulations to the winner of the Me & My Big Idea Stickers!
The winner is.......Jan!
25 years ago my kids were badgering their dad to make me a valentine. Instead, he went to the store and bought one of those kiddie school packs and signed them all with an R, then hid the envies all thru the house. There were 33 of them including 2 teacher ones. I still have no found them all but last year, found two more. That was the first time in 10 years I had found any. It will drive me batty until I die...or move.

Jan, your name got yanked out of the hat......and I have to tell you that your comment is AWESOME! What a great guy you're married to! I think I would have torn the house apart years ago because it would have driven me insane.....but what a nice surprise to find every now and then. :)
Jan, please email me with your mailing address so I can get your stickers sent out to you. :)
Thanks to everyone for playing and for sharing your stories! I enjoyed reading them all and I hope the rest of you did, too. :)
Have a great Monday and check back later for a new card. I just got a package in the mail today from GinaK Designs and she said that we could sneak peek something on our blogs before her new designs debut later this week.
Happy Creating!
-Stampin' Mama
You asked who has been a blessing in my life - I would definitely have to say my MOM. My mom Ruth is 78 yrs old. She survived breast cancer & major surgery a year ago & is still going strong! She is presently taking care of a large home & my terminally ill bed-ridden dad who is 91 - her husband of 54 years. I watch her in total amazement each day as she gets my dad into his wheelchair( life sustaining attachments & all)to wheel him to the kitchen door to look outside & watch the birds at the feeder. While he's doing that, she's pinning out fresh washed sheets to put on his bed later. The nurses & therapists in & out of her house each day get their treats of home made donuts, breads or soup before they leave. I stop in every morning on my way to work to check on them & my mom has breakfast waiting for me, always something different, and a bag sitting on the counter with little treats for me for my lunch, (my pre-school kids that I teach still don't believe me when I say "my mommy made MY lunch too", I guess teachers aren't supposed to have mommys)! My mom blesses my life DAILY by her silent, humble example of what courage - strength - determination - dedication , and most of all, LOVE is all about! THANKS MOM - I LOVE YOU!!!!!
