Sketch #464~Paradise palms, on the horizon ocean front, Stampin Up

I was so excited to play with my new stamp 

sets.  Now you all know I've been struggling

with my eye sight because of covid.  

But that didn't stop me today.  I put the drops in

and used a warm compress.  Sometimes you 

just have to do things that bring you joy. 

That's what stamping has always done for me. 

So thankful to have this hobby. 

Especially being home all day, and today's 

weather was not enjoyable.  So dreaming

of a nice beach somewhere.  

I think the little fence is so inviting, just take off 

your flip flops and walk on the sandy shores under

the sun, and take a rest under the palm trees. 

Did you notice the rock I stamped and fussy cut out?

It's behind the fence.   I love the birdies in the air too. 

Now folks you know me, always one for making 

mistakes and admitting them.  

Well here it is🡻

I decorated an envelope.  I was so proud 

of myself.  You know the saying, Pride comes

before a fall.  well ain't that the truth.  

You see my card is a square 5x5 and I decorated

the standard A2 envelope.  UGH.  

Well I'll use it for another card, and make the envelope

to fit the square card.  

I'm going to submit this card to the challenge at:

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge

Stamp sets featured in this card are:

Stampin Up:  Paradise Palms

Stampin Up:  On the Horizon 

Sampin Up:  Ocean Front 

I think I will send this card to one of the kids

or my dad.  They all love those woody wagons. 

I'm also including a picture of my little 

leprechaun.

I don't think HP is very impressed with my 

shenanigans. (that word just seems to fit the day) haha

Here are a few cards I made for the kiddos and some 

friends.  I stuck a chocolate coin in the little pot of gold.

Here's the St. Patrick's day card line up. 

I am still holding onto faith and trusting God for the 

healing, but oh friends, I now have been losing my 

hair at a rapid rate.  My goodness this darn covid

has exasperated my immune system.  Still no 

smell, eyes, still dim and foggy and now hair loss.

good grief.  But in the grand scheme of things, I'm 

blessed.  My dear Friend had covid in December 

and a few weeks ago they told her it has 

attacked her central nervous system, and there

is brain inflammation.  But Praise the LORD 

she is making a recovery.  

Thank you for your continued prayers and

encouragement as I recover from covid.  

I'd love to have you follow me on instagram at: 

pjs.projects

I've also added a new tab to the bar at the top of my blog.  

I'll be trying to sell a few of my older stamp sets.

So keep checking back to see if there is something 

there you might like.

 Thank you for stopping by for a visit.

Keep Smiling and Keep Stamping
