Hello everyone!

Happy Thursday! Blog candy until July 21, so go leave those wonderful comments.

A1C - Craig James started his new technical school at Keesler AFB, MS yesterday. He strained his knee a couple weeks ago and is doing some physical therapy a couple of days a week. The therapist feels he'll be 100% by the end of next week so that is a good thing.

I belong to a birthday club on split coast stampers, I love it! Today's altered items include an altered post it holder, pie piece (sizzix die filled with ribbon) and an altered paper weight, the stamp on top is "may your day be filled with happiness". I need to put in a few stamps and a card and it will be ready to go postal tomorrow.

It is early evening here in Maryland and we went from having beautiful weather to having July sucky hot and humid weather. We really need rain so pray the Lord will provide that for us.

Stamp happy and have a great evening!

Now that I've cleaned up its time for stamping Fun-- Blog Candy Reminder!

I hope everyone is enjoying their Tuesday. It is beautiful here in Maryland. Even though the thermometer says it is 86* it doesn't feel that hot. It is very pleasant.
***
I've had the doors and windows open in our home all day. I'm hoping for a repeat tomorrow since I am having our carpets steam cleaned.

I love split coast stampers, I have been participating in a secret sister swap for the last three months, and these are some of the things my secret sister will receive.

I hope every one enjoys a beautiful day filled with blessings and sunshine!

Stamp Happy!

Hello Stampers!

**

I actually started blog candy a few days ago, but haven't had many responses, so I've decided to give you a list of this months blog candy (from June 28 until July 31).

On to today's post!

The paper storage is here! The UPS guy arrived at about 3:00 pm local time. He had eight (yup 8) boxes with him. Five sets of 12X12"paper storage and three sets of 8 1/2 X 11" paper storage.

***

No I did not take pictures of the before or in progress, it was just too messy in here. I also did not allow visitors into my space this last week during the cleaning and purging process.

***

It is awesome to be finished! It too all day to complete. By the time my friend Chris came over to visit, I had not only finished but had vacuumed the floors!

*****

I am so glad to have this space for my 'dream' area. If we ever put an addition to our home, I'll request my own dedicated space with its own door, no men (unless they stamp) allowed!

*****

Now that I'm finished I'll be blog posting more.

Stamp happy and blog at you guys later!

Don't worry about me! A quck update on "progress"

Hi Stampers!

A quick post this morning to let my loyal blog followers know I won't be stamping until the middle of next week. Check my previous post for the details of blog candy!

I have new paper storage coming in on the 13th, and I can't even get to my stamping desk until then, it is covered with my paper. If you are local area plan on checking in on the blog or via email around the 15th of July for a listing of what I will be selling or gifting. There is way more paper than I realized I owned. I will also be sharing some other items, cigar boxes and other things, tins, etc., for altering.

Also, if you are in the local area and are in need of a washer and dryer, please let me know, I am selling my old set and have purchased the Duet from Whirlpool. The set is in excellent condition. Uhaul of course.

I'll be posting some pictures of the progress. Be safe and Stamp Happy!
