 Hello & Happy Wednesday, Friends!

It's a rainy morning here in south central Pennsylvania. No complaining from me since we really need the rain. It's been a dust bowl around here. So far this morning it's on the warm side but that is all going to change this afternoon as a cold front is coming in with much cooler temperatures. I noticed yesterday that the breeze was really blowing the leaves off the trees. Tis the season, right?

Today I have a pretty birthday card to share with you from the Gallery Blooms stamp set. I love that big ole flower in the set and always gravitate to use it. Take a look...

Card Details:

Stamps: Gallery Blooms, Simply Said 

Ink: Memento Black, Stampin Blends-Soft Seafoam, Cloud Cover

Cardstock: Cloud Cover, Basic White, Floral Charm DSP (Online Exclusives)

Accessories: Gallery Blooms Dies, Eyelet 3D EF, Neutral Matte Dots (Online Exclusives), Linen Thread, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Cloud Cover is a new In Color this year and one that I have barely touched. 

It's an odd blue-ish gray but it is very pretty! Reminds me of an old Stampin Up! color, Bordering Blue.

Last evening I delivered another card order to Audrey and picked up the basket of Halloween treats. There was only 3 M&M Sticks left! That was a pleasant surprise! 

It's always great to sit & visit with her! She looked great, too!

Today I have to get the finishing touches done for my Stamp Day w/Friends get together that I am having tomorrow morning. I cannot wait to see my friends and make some cards! WooHoo!

Gallery Blooms & An Update

 Good Morning & Happy Wednesday, Friends!

Happy Hump Day to you!

This morning we have a bit of sunshine so that's a good thing! We had rain overnight and everything this morning is pretty soaked. More rain/storms are expected this evening, again. Warmer temps are on the way today and the humidity is to jump up. It will start feeling like summer even though the first day of summer arrives on Friday.

Today I have a card to share with you from the new Gallery Blooms bundle from the 2025-2025 Stampin Up Annual Catalog. This was one of the 1st purchases I made when the catalog went live. I love the flower images in it!

Card Details:

Stamps: Gallery Blooms, Beautiful Motifs

Ink: Memento Black, Strawberry Slush, Stampin Blends-Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight & Strawberry Slush

Cardstock: Strawberry Slush, Basic White

Accessories: Exposed Brick 3D EF, Stitched Rectangle Framelits (retired), Stylish Shapes Dies, Gallery Blooms Dies, Strawberry Slush Gems, Dimensionals, Stampin Seal

I'm not usually a big flower person but the flowers in the bundle are so pretty that I could not resist! I got both the Gallery Blooms & the Beautiful Motifs bundles but not the paper. It hasn't grown on me yet but maybe down the road I will grab it. For now I am happy with the stamp sets! Just beautiful and there will be more cards to come!

UPDATE:

I told you yesterday that I had my 4 month check up on Monday evening. I got bloodwork results back yesterday. I am shocked and elated that everything was within range and all is normal for the 1st time in my life! It's just so hard to believe! My doctor said "everything looked beautiful"! I am so proud of the work I put into myself and getting the results that I had never dreamed would come to light. I'm SO thankful for my doctor's guidance and this medication for changing my health and my life!
