Hi everyone. Happy Tuesday night.
Quick update for all of you who have been thinking about - and praying for Trish today. I got an update email from Trish's daughter to let me know that Trish did really well in surgery. She is off the ventilator and is breathing on her own. She will be in hospital for 2+ days - they aren't sure how many just yet. This is fabulous news. I confess to shedding a tear of happiness when I read the email. I know that Trish would want me to thank you, on her behalf, for all your thoughts and prayers. She really is a special lady - as you all know :-)
I also have a shout out tonight for BETH.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY BETH on 3/31!!! Please wish Beth a happy birthday - it's a BIG birthday for her. Beth I know you will be out celebrating tonight - and I have a card ready to put into the post - but I wanted to dedicate this card to you tonight to say happy birthday.
Tonights card is a redo of my blooper card. I know many of you will remember my blooper card. This card uses the Sending Love DSP ( - which I love btw :-) and is one of the 9+ cards I made this weekend. It also uses my favorite Stem Sayings. It's also a color scheme I don't think I've used before... sticking with my new year's resolutions :-).... oh... yes... and I have exercised 3 nights in a row! So... doing well on my resolutions!!!! Mmmmm..... taken me 3 months to get focused on this one - but better late than never, right?
OK... so the sentiment really is stamped correctly, for some reason when I lightened the background it made it look as though it stamped unevenly :-)
Isn't that rich and yummy. Reminds me of a neopolitan icecream! Of course, such rich luscious DSP and creamy satin ribbon needs a card stock to match - I used Shimmery White card stock for the sentiment.
Card recipe:
card stock: Shimmery White, Pretty in Pink, Chocolate Chip
DSP: Sending Love (117153)
Ribbon: Chocolate Chip Satin ribbon (117287)
Stamp: Stem Sayings (115078)
It's quick and easy and I actually made 4 different cards with this same layout. but using different papers. Some have embellishments, and some don't. You will be seeing those over the next week.
I'm off back to work. I took a break to work out and do a quick blog udpate. I hope you all have a fabulous Wednesday, filled with love and laughter. Don't forget - send a card to someone to show you care. Why? Just because you can!
As always, thank you for stopping by my little area of the stamping blogosphere. Your visits are always much appreciated.
Hugs
Jaydee

Thanks for the update on Trish. We will keep her in our prayers.
This card is a lovely desisgn and a great idea for usuing DSP on a card. (I have some lovely papers but sometimes don't know what to do with them).
I love the wording lines.
