I am a stay-at-home mom. I have been married to my handsome and wonderful husband for over 14 years. Right now he's battling stomach/esophagus cancer. So I do my best to craft when I can. I have two wonderful boys. My oldest, Garett, is 24 and served 5 years in the Navy. He's been home since the beginning of the year (2014). We are very proud of him. My youngest, "DJ", is 13 and in the 8th grade. I have two Border Collie mix dogs (Koda and Rugu), one Calico cat (Hydie), one orange Tabby cat (Bosley), one Tea Cup Chihuahua (Gigi...I LOVE her sooo much), a Chiweinnie (Lily....sweetest dog ever), and a Jack Russell/Chihuahua (Connor....AAALL boy).

A Mushy Thanks

HAPPY FRIDAY NIGHT

My husband and I decided to start taking on the task of redoing our shower tiles.  Not just because they were outdated, but because the showers needed it.  My husband's shower was first to be done.  All the prep work was done and now came time to hang waterproof sheet rock.  It's a good thing my best friend's husband builds houses for a living.  He came over and within two hours had the whole shower walls hung.  Now all we need to do now is plan up the tile and get it put on. Fun fun fun.  So here is a card I made Darren for helping us out.


Stamps used:  Unity Owl on a MushroomFebruary 2013 KOM (Sentiment and wood-grain background)

Jute Twine, Colored Pencils, Stickles, Brown and Black Ink.
