Hi Stampers,
Happy Sunday friends !
Over the last couple weeks since being back home from Alaska
I have been having a flare up with my RA along with a sore throat ,
I personally think it’s stress with so much going on this month
I know everything will get done but I suppose sub-consciously
I’m stressing about stuff, but enough of that …
I did film a couple videos for you this week .
This Thursday is our 4th annual Glitter Queens retreat .

Glitter Queens coming to my home this up coming
Thursday – Sunday
so I have also been making/putting together their
pillow gifts / organizing projects for us
to make while they are here PLUS clean my studio and house
(Thankful to my hubby for helping )
Plus trying to stay up on my blog posts and videos is a tad bit much
I am just taking it one day at a time .
I am really hoping to be
LIVE in the Glitter Pit this upcoming Wednesday

even if we just look at my advisory board swaps .
I was really thinking of doing that this past Wednesday but
Hubby and I are doing a new eating plan and
Wednesday I spent most of the morning / afternoon
getting chemicals for the pool and then grocery shopping and food prepping
Jessie came over and we cut each other’s hair
and she also helped cut some vegetables .
I did finish getting all 20 gifts made
and I did design one of our shoe box projects
( we are all bring 1 card & one 3-D / shoe box swap for all of us to make
I still need to design the card for our swap
and then cut and prep everything for both shoe box swaps
for the Glitter Queens to make .
I also got 2 projects all packaged up and ready for us to make
Thursday night when they start to arrive after Dinner .
I will get the projects I have for my shoe box swaps filmed for you all
and share those after the event .
Then the following Saturday is my local stamp club .
Here is a sneak peek of my 3-D Shoe box swap.
This is my 1st sample

But of course I am already changing it to Silver Glimmer paper instead of the Copper .
Over the next few weeks it may be a hit or miss on my blog .
I will be posting just not sure if every day .
Thank you for your patience .
Thank you so much for your sweet emails / texts asking about how I’ve been feeling .
I will see you all tomorrow for Card Sketch #41 .

We will still love you!
