Honored beyond words and a gift for my followers~

I have been terrible about keeping things up to date lately and I do apologize for that. So, to fix that, I am posting some stuff I really should have posted a while ago.

I have been blessed with 3 wonderful blog awards in the past month and just haven't posted them. So, today I am. First, I would like to say how honored I am by these awards. When I started this blog, I never thought I would have readers, much less followers and people who actually looked at my creations and read my posts. I am honored by these awards and touched that these wonderful ladies have shared these awards with me.

Thank you so much ladies!

This third award is from Melina at Crafty Scrapper.
I just recently discovered Melina's blog. Melina has a wonderful CAS style that I truly enjoy and have drawn inspiration from lately. Stop by her blog when you can - you will enjoy her great creations.

With this award I am suppose to share 7 things about me.

So, I am going to be a slight slug and share 7 things and hope that the first 5 things count for the first award too! Sneaky huh?

1 - I have 2 dogs of my own (Pongo and Ebony - named by Shane) and Andrew's dog, Brutus. Pongo we saved from being sent to the pound, Ebony we adopted when she was a puppy and Brutus is my constant companion and the most adorable chihuahua ever.

2 - I hate shopping. Unless I am shopping for stamps and goodies. I truly have to be in the mood to shop and prefer to get what I need and be done.

3 - I have a fear of heights.

4 - I dislike spiders, but don't mind snakes.

5 - I almost quit stamping before I every really got started. My first demo had a style that just didn't work for me.

6 - I am a homebody. Andrew says I need to get out more.

7 - I try to stamp everyday, but haven't been accomplishing that lately.

Now, I am suppose to pass these on to other bloggers. I always have a tough time picking who to share these awards with because there are so many wonderful blogs out there that I just love.

So, these awards are for my followers. And if you aren't a follower and would like one or all of these awards, please feel free to help yourself.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you have a wonderful day filled with all that your heart desires!
