Stamping For Autism Awareness Blog Hop

Good morning!!!   

I am so excited to have been invited to join "Stamping For Autism Awareness" Blog Hop, with some really special and talented group of ladies.

Over the Fall I had the pleasure of meeting Theo!!  Theo, is Tenia Nelson's son!  My boys and I fell in LOVE!!!!   He had this infectious smile and gave these big warm hugs.
Look at this group of handsome kids!!!

Not sure when we will see each other again, but I made this card with him in mind.   Hanging out with him that day, you would never know that he was Autistic and even if you could, so what!! The world is filled with way too much discrimination or idealisms about what should be considered normal.  What SHOULD be normal is ACCEPTING and LOVING one another without any boundaries.

Here is my project, using Faithful Friends Brotherly Love 
Nothing says "LOVE" and "FRIENDSHIP" like the bond between siblings.  I live this reality every day through my two youngest boys.  They are the best of friends and the worst of enemies at times, but those feuds don't last too long!  :) 

My Door Is Always Open

Hi there-

So while on my little hiatus... I took some time to organize my little craft room. 

I'm still not done, but the majority of it is!!  :)  Now hopefully, I won't be making any double purchases for things I already have!!  :)  I know I'm not the only one that has done this!!  hehe

Today I created a trio set of cards.  I just couldn't help myself!!  :) 

I used Paper Smooches:  Freezy Fellas, Hot Concoctions, and Bitty Bungalows. 

Love the coffee cardstock on this card.
