Wedding bliss

Hi to all my crafty friends
 I hope everyone is having a good weekend so far. Mine has been pretty good so far. Friday night we went to a Dodger game, then sat was my uncle's birthday, and my first trial run for my wedding day make- up.. Yup you heard it I'm getting married in Jan. I'm so excited!!! I'm marring my best friend and high school sweetheart. We will be getting married on our 18 year anniversary... So If I disappear from now to then it's because I'm planning this amazing day by myself and may be a little overwhelmed lol!

Back to crafting!!

Hello to all my crafty friends,
   Omg! Can you believe its been almost 6 months since I've posted anything:( For those of you that follow me know that I took some time off to spend time with my grandmother. Sadly she passed away earlier this month. Though it is so hard to see her leave i now know she is free from the pain and suffering that the cancer brought to her. I would like to thank all of you for your kind words and support during this time.
   Now on to today's post. I made this card with one of my new stamps I received from SU called Field Flowers. I am going to enter this into a few challenges this week as I'm trying to get back into the blogging world lol!
    Hope you enjoy and thanks for stopping by, HappyCrafting

prayers for grandma

To all my crafting friends,

I  just wanted to check in with all of you and say great job on all of your resent posts. All of you have been so creative with your projects.
Well since I've been gone there has been a lot going on in my life.Some good and some bad:( As for the good my high school sweetheart and I finally decided to get married(after 17 years of dating) so all the excitement that comes with a wedding is surly taking up some of my time. Like most of you its summer break so I have my three kids home with me all day constantly asking what fun activity is next. I've been trying to keep up with some crafting but it is super hard. Even though I haven't done anything just for fun I have had a few family occasions that I made party favors,invitations,cards etc. for. So that covers my good things.
Now on to my bad things as you may know in April my great uncle past away after a long battle with cancer. Not only a few weeks after that my grandmother who raised me as a child found out during a routine gallbladder surgery that she to has stage four cancer. The Dr. gave her 6 months to live. This was so sudden and surprising to everyone that it just crushed us. Now not even 3 months into her battle things have progressed severely and she is very sick now. I as well as my family are trying to spend as much time with her as we can. we are her around the clock doctors trying to make these days as nice and pain free as possible. It's to the point now that the Dr.'s have given up and only family and our prayers are keeping her alive. Please pray for her as she is quickly losing this horrible battle. Thank all of you for understanding and I will be back soon.
