I wanna be a cowgirl....

The kids and I had such a lazy Sunday. It was wonderful. LOL! They didn't even get out of their pj's. Sunday is also a happy day around here as that's the day that Sam calls. I was so happy to hear this time that he is moving camps. Where he has been is horrible---another reason I've been overwhelmed/worried. Hopefully the new camp will be better. He also found out his two week R&R should be in August. Not too far away! Yay!!

Do ya like the new blog header and background?? I LOVE it!! Christy Croll was kind enough to work on it for me! I just can't stop staring at it...thanks so much, Christy!!! {she was fine tuning the background so if it's not there, it will be soon}

This week is an awesome week!! First there are new designers at Susana's store. Be sure to check out my sidebar for links to their sites also be sure to check out the store blog, Follow Your Heart~~stop by and say hello!

There are also lots of FUN things happening later in the week....I so can't wait to tell you about them, but alas, I must wait.

Onto my card for today. I have a whole stack of images ready to go that I colored at my friend, Jennifer's house. This is one of them. I had so much fun with the red hat and boots for Wild West Anya. If I were to ever get boots or a cowboy hat, it would be a hard pick between pink and red. LOL!


supplies:
card size: 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
stamps: Wild West Anya
paper: some from my scrap pile
ink: Memento Tuxedo Black,
others: copics, Martha Stewart border punch, Kaisercraft Red Rhinestones, Royal Red Shimmerz,

Red, must go with a red hat a boots! Sexy!! I too love Sundays. I was feeling all good (as good as ya can about your husband being sent into harms way) about Dave's deployment in Aug, until last night. He decided to inform me that time frame is still the same, however, LOCATION is NOT... Now I am Freaked. Glad to know Sam is moving and I love that excited feeling while waiting for the phone to ring, it feels like falling in love over and over again.
