blog candy winner

 I am sorry my Friday slipped away as I got 2 wedding dress's out the door and then we left for the Visa Championships in Minneapolis. I picked Vicky out of the bowl of names. I sent you an email Vicky I will send it out as soon as I get your address.Thanks for all of your kind messages.
  We had a great time watching the talented gymnasts.My girls did gymnastics for years and now they were so close so we went for a family get away before my older daughter leaves for Collage.I have 4 more wedding gowns going out this week so more 10 hour days this week. It feels so good when they are all done and fit so well it makes it all worth it.I have 26 gowns surrounding me right now I am dreaming in white and ivory!!!
Have a great day I hope to find some time to stamp soon.

A basket full of thanks

    My 13 year old daughter Alyssa has been doing Madison Mission this week at our church.The kids sleep at church and do community service projects during the day like working at food banks, working in gardens, playing games a senior centers, etc. Well I did these home made caramel corn bags up as a thank you for the volunteers.
  I used a Just Rite Stamp set Your the Best with Pallet Inks in several colors. I die cut them with Spellbinders blossoms 3 and Pendent die set  
 I sued foam tape to pop the circle with the saying to give it some dimension. I then attached it to a tag and then to the bags of caramel corn.
  I can not wait to hear all about their week what they all did. I also can't wait to see how this changes her life and how she looks at our community here in Madison WI.
  I hope you are having a great summer.
