Blissfull ATC Swap Orange theme for August

Hello Dear Blogging Buddies,

If you have not tried making an ATC yet  aka "Artist Trading Card"...You should!!
They are little miniature works of art that you can whip up in no time flat.
You can use any medium your hearts desire...well almost...all it is all contained
in the regulation size of 2 1/2 x 3 1/2" in.
If you would like to sign up to do a swap I would suggest going to the
Blissfull ATC Swap hosted by Wendy and Debbie. We have a swap once
a month and you have plenty of time to prepare and make a unique ATC that
you will trade with someone else! Try it and I know you will LOVE it!!!

My trading partner was Wendy this month and she made the most lovely
orange themed ATC!!!  Don't you agree??

Thank you Wendy and just so you guy's know the September
theme will be Leaves.....come on you will have FUN!!

Love and Happy Hugs to ALL!!!                           

Susan

    Hi, I love Wendy's ATC! I also traded with her and got this same one! I'll treasure mine always because it's the very first ATC I have in my collection. Hope you have a wonderful week!
    Hugs...

    I like the way Wendy put the flower on the back and wrote around the petals. She is so smart!

My Beautiful Sam Passed Away This Afternoon......

Image
Hello Dear Friends, With an extremely heavy heart I tell you that I have lost my little friend tonight. I thought he was having hairball problems and so my husband and I brought him to the vets late this afternoon. Upon arrival Sam was gasping for breath and they rushed him into a room and gave him ogygen. The nurse asked us if she could take an x-ray to see what was going on. When the nurse came back to the room she told us the devastating news, that Sam had a tumor next to his heart and that his lungs were filled with fluid. I was just floored....I am still in shock. We had Sam for 4 1/2 years and he was...well how do I explain to you the love that he gave us....he was always there for me....he would lie by my side in bed when I was ill and after two major surgeries....he would eat, have is water, and just stay with me. I always said he was a gift from God and he truly was. Tonight this is what I have learned.....even after my Sam has passed away he leaves this last gift   ....

Friends and Flowers

Hi Blogging Friends, I wanted to share this lovely bouquet of flowers that was brought to my door this afternoon. My dear friend Maggie sent these to me for my birthday.....they are so Beautiful and Maggie is an absolute doll to think of me. I know we all talk about our friendships here in blogland that we have found, and I know we appreciate each other very much. My life has changed so much in the last 9 years. I have had many surgeries and things going wrong physically which limited me quite a bit. Since 2003 I have not been able to drive anymore and that in itself was a big blow to me. I inherited a rare disease of the corneas in which I have had multiple surgeries for over the years, hence no more driving. Well I can go on but I will stop there. The real point in all of this is I have been lonely and needed somehow to connect with people and then I discovered the World of Blogging!!  WOW...I never dreamed that I would meet such loving and caring folks....
