BONUS GRAND DAUGHTER DAYS………

How about this pretty pink card to my left? I have been making some of my favorite pink cards lately…..I’ve been on a real PINK KICK……maybe it’s two more grand daughters on the way!! 🙂 This is embossed in white on vellum and colored with markers both from behind and on top to give it depth and shading……but anyway…..isn’t it neat to think that OUR GOD WATCHES OVER US LIKE THAT?? My son Mike once said to me after I confessed some worry fit I had just had, “Ma, that’s no way to live!!” And he’s right! I struggle with worry more then just about ANYTHING in my life…..but I do STRUGGLE, and TRY…..it hit me too that hopefully my kids will outlive me, so who will worry when I’m gone? And then I think, hey, what GOOD does your WORRYING DO??? Ever catch your self thinking like that? Do YOU hear the VOICES in my head? (that’s actually a line from The God’s Must be Crazy….one of our fav family movies) but anyway, I am trying really really really really hard to stop being such a worry wart. It’s just so counterproductive…….and here to my left is my most favorite card I have made in a long time. If you actually read back in my blog I am always naming some card as my most favorite – so that’s why I said that I have made in a long time. This one took a lot of cutting…..but I really do love it in the end. I actually made one like this for a friend at work and then had a battle giving it to her…..how selfish is THAT???? I kept making excuses like oh gee, she’ s not really a pink lover maybe I will give her this card over here instead….etc….but in the end I just made another one like it and gave it to my DEAR, KIND and WONDERFUL friend at work……..and felt so much happier with myself. :):) harhar. That’s the best thing about being a demonstrator is keeping your cards cuz you need samples…….anyway, sometimes I think that God must get so tired of my worrying – but then I realize that HE is my FATHER and he does not expect perfection from me and HE loves me UNCONDITIONALLY…..worry warts and all. :):) Well I have stayed up way past my bedtime here to blog…..you know I am not sure if they improved this thing or if I am just finally getting a little blog-savvy……(careful there….pride comes before the fall)but it seems like it’s been a really long time since I wiped out a card…….or had one turn sideways on me……I think I am getting to be an expert blogger. harhar…not. Here are two more of those precious ones I have been telling you about. We call Lami – (whose whole name is Elami Cheruto) Lami-Lou, it’s just a nickname that is sticking and so she sort of thinks that is what her name is now. When we were trick or treating the other night we were walking along and I said to her, “Lami, Are you grammas little punkin girl”…..and she said “No, I notta punkin girl”…..and I said,,,,”Are you grammas little bo peep?”(she was dressed up as little bo peep) and she said, “No, I notta little bo peep,” and then she said, “Gramma, I yust a Yittle Yammie You………(just a Little Lami-Lou) – and I tell you – 2 more weeks with these precious baby girls is gonna fly by and the next time I blog it’s gonna be cryin time again…….but I am gonna try with all my might to remember that safe in the great big hands of a STRONG AND MIGHTY GOD is the very best place for them to be….along with everyone else I love……..that’s kind of a sweet thought, isn’t it??
