Saving the best for last. The Retiring 2024-2026 In Colors are fabulous.  We have enjoyed them for two years.  Please order refills, cardstock, and blends if you are low.  It was fun to stamp the clover in the retiring colors.  Which is your favorite?  Mine are the greens ... represents spring.  I am tired of our Iowa winter.  Ready for green grass, and buds on the trees.  

Had to do a simple card on Thick White Cardstock with all the retiring 2024-2026 In Colors and used the amazing sentiment, You Can Do Anything!

I enjoy my morning coffees in our sun room.  This is a recent morning while assembling a Paper Pumpkin Kit and watching the sun rise.  How do you start your day?  Mine is with God and coffee.  

Today, let's pray for all the veterans and their loved ones as they defend our nation. We appreciate our freedom. We support their families and know they sacrifice much to serve our country and to be away from their loved ones.  Thank you for your service.  God please protect these fine people and their families.  In your name, Amen.
