Good afternoon....

stamping friends!!! Hope you all had a wonderful and creative week. I had a lot of running around to do and had another migraine attack...hate those!! I usually don't talk about private stuff, but yesterday I found out, after visiting the dentist, that my oldest, the 8 y.o., has perfect teeth but has 3 or more extra teeth that are blocking one of her permanent teeth to come through. So, my baby needs surgery or she won't get that front tooth ever :C:C. If you could, would you please say a prayer that it won't be too bad as she is terrified. Thanks!!!




So, that was that ;D.
As I was going through my daily dose of blog land I saw Betty Wright had her new challenge up on the ODBD Blog SNTODBD5 and I just had to play,hehe!!




I only played a few time but did not play for the last 2 or 3 times as I did not have the required stamps, but this time I can, and guess what, so can you, as Betty has changed the rules a little ;D. You still schould use ODBD stamps but you don't have to have a particular one, any, yes ANY ODBD stamp can be used from now on, how cool is that? Well, I love it and I am trying to play every two weeks with Betty. There is only one requirement this time and that is to use something NEW!! This is not hard for me as I just last week bought some yummy paper and a new MS punch ;D;D.



Have a look and see for yourself
