I just cannot get into the Christmas spirit this year.

Is there anyone out there like me? Maybe the guys? I haven’t bought but two presents.

🙂 Joanne Stamper’s Dozen Blog Hop ~ In with the New!!! Until next time… keep it simple, Stampers! (And I used Memento ink to stamp the flowers so they would show up.) I think I will send this one to the neighbor that bought is pizza while we were caring for Grandma! I told you I couldn’t decide… so I had to make another! Same colors, just opposite. I used the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch for the sentiment and the Dragonflies punch for … well, for the dragonflies! 🙂 Of course, I had to use a little Wink of Stella and Iridescent Rhinestones to add a little sparkle! The layer and DSP are Orchid Oasis as is the ink and Blends used on the dragonflies. The card base and ribbon are Starry night along with the ink for the sentiment and the flowers. I couldn’t decide if I wanted to to use Starry Sky or Orchid Oasis so I used them both. I decided I would try out some of the new 2022-2023 In Colors. I used the Dragonfly Garden stamp set for the images and the sentiment. She now has a new understanding of exactly what that means!Īnyway, this is the card that I made for Katelynne to let her know how much I appreciate her! I have always told Kate to treat her residents like they are her grandparents. As the days progressed, Katelynne’s love for her grandma shined through the darkness. After days if not eating, Katelynne finally was able to get her to finally eat some cheesecake.

When my husband had to go back to work, Katelynne stayed with me and helped take care of Grandma and Uncle LJ. My husband and her came out to visit when they found out what was going on. One thing that came to my attention is how great my daughter is. Ten days after I arrived, she took her last breath while holding my hand. A few days later, she came home on hospice. The day after I arrived, she was admitted to the hospital. Long story short, I went to Kansas to go visit my mother- and brother-in-law for a weekend. Its been a rough time around the homestead and I am grateful to be able to stamp again. It’s been a couple months since I’ve been able to hop with you all. Hello and welcome to this month’s edition of the Stamper’s Dozen Blog Hop.
