Beautiful RAK

I rec'd the most BEAUTIFUL rak today!!!

KRISTINE from INK SOMETHING is an awesome person!!!
If anyone knows what the symbol of a transplant is,it's a Butterfly. I had seen this card on Kristine's blog and was in AWWWWW when I saw it!

THANKS A MILLION KRISTINE!!
Love ya bunches!!!!

It will be on my desk for a super long time!!!
It is so gorgeous,all the diff butterflies inside and the colors are so stunning.

If you haven't visited Kristine's blog,you should,cause her work is phenominal!!!

So when I got up this afternoon (cause lately i've been sleeping alot) my DH says,you got some mail today. I rushed in the kitchen where he had left the envie


This is the inside of the card...isn't it beautiful!!!

Oh,this is my 2nd post of the day,go down to see my card challenge ...

Hugs,Diane

Rock 'n Roll is here to stay!!!

I found these glittering butterflies which I adore so you'll prob see lots of them here.






Let's go to the hop,oh baby,let's go to the hop....Remember that song??? Well my friend Anne was invited to a little 50's party with some of her old friends. She didn't really want to go cause they are to dress up and she had nothing to wear and couldn't find anything. So one of her neighbours brought her a skirt with the poodle,so now she's all into it. It's happening next weekend,so I made her this card to wish her lots of fun.

It's from the 50's set from Pink Cat Studio,turned out pretty cute. I'm sure she'll get a kick out of it.

Well rain again today,I think the sun refuses to come our way. What a depressing summer this has been!!!
Better days ahead I'm sure (I'm hoping anyways).

Have a wonderful week my friends!!!
Hugs,Diane

Raks to share from Joanne

I rec'd some happy mail yesterday which made me sad and happy.

I rec'd a beautiful Hanna Christmas from our Angel Joanne who passed away last week!

She was so talented,so kind and thoughtful!

The Hanna in her exercise outfit,(don't know what she is called) is another creations by Joanne for encouraging me with my weight loss.

Joanne,I know you are now looking over us.Youcame into my life for a reason,but don't know why God came and take you.He must have plans for you I'm sure. I will treasure your cards and keep you in my heart. I will also keep your family and friends in my thoughts and prayers through this difficult time and season.

Hugs,Diane

Rak and weight loss update!

Last night was weigh in night!!!! I LOST 2 POUNDS!!!! Which means I'm missing .4 of a pound to my weight goal. It was so funny,the weight recorder was saying,is there anything you can take off,go for a pee,lol! It's all good,I'll be extra good again this week,to take that .4 off. The group are all rooting for me because I would be the only member to attain my goal for 2008,but I must reach it before the end of the month. So I'm hoping and praying that I can eat sensibly and do my exercises as I did this week.

I'm also motivated because we are going to JAMAICA for 2 weeks on January 9th. So I need to lose a couple of more pounds below my goal even because I always gain when we go away. That's what holidays are for right? But I will dedicated to do the aqua exercises and take lots of walks on the beach to try to gain less this time. We'll see how that works out.

Now on the lovely card above.
Isn't he just a darling little monkey! Thanks to Rose Ann!!!! Your card is sooooo cute!!! I love this little guy! Love everything about it!

Beautiful Christmas Raks!

This cute little treat package is from Rita from Rita's Little Corner. The holiday lineup image is too cute and look at the package she created.



It is called "Snowman Soup",it contains,hot choc,mini marshmallows,a hershey kiss and a candy cane. And the other little treat is Christmas M&M's!!!! Yummy!!! This is too cute to open up,I think I'll just keep it,hopefully my DH won't get into it,lol!



Thanks a big bunch Rita,You're such a sweetie!



My friend Kristine from Ink Something sent me a beautiful Christmas card! Her coloring is gorgeous and I admire her work! Thank You so much Kristine, I love it!

Thanks so much ladies,you've made my day so much better!

Yesterday wasn't a good day for me,this sure cheered me up

A rak and Tilda

This beauty is from Rita ,she sent me TY card for some images I had sent her,that was so nice of you Rita,I'm glad you liked them. I'm going to make some one image cards similar to this,they are so pretty!

Here's Tilda,an image I rec'd from Wish Rak. I love her in pink,and will put a sentiment when need be.This will be one of those cards to have on hand.Pretty simple and quick,just what i need right now.

Today was a short day for me,with having had a bad night sleep again,I got up at almost noon. I hate that cause then your day is all messed up,urghhhhhh! Then we went to visit my brother and sis-in-law.Then we came home and dear hubby made dinner while I took our tiny little tree out and some decorations.

I'm just not in the mood,but Al really wanted some kind of signs that Christmas is just around the corner,gee,it's coming fast!!! So a few on my favorite men came out (SNOWMEN) and our little optical tree and decorated here and there. He's happy with that,so it's all good!!

Hope all had a wonderful weekend and may you have a busy stampin' week ahead!!!

Hugs,Diane
