Blessed

I am very blessed to have a circle of friends both near and far that care so much about me, and I care so very much about each one of them. Everyone should be so lucky to have people like this in their lives. True friends. Friends that stay with you through thick and thin. That's what life is all about. So today, I'm sharing some cards that my friends made for me. Not only are they all awesome people, but a good majority of them are crazy creative!

These first two cards are from my dear friend, Ana. She is a Stampin' Up demonstrator and knows how to work that rubbah! You go, girl :)

This next card is from the wickedly talented Jennifer McGuire. I had won a book from the Hero Arts blog back in early December, and because it was so delayed in getting to me (I finally got it last week along with two other great books), she sent me some Hero Arts stamps and this great card. What a sweetie! Thanks, Jennifer!

Next up is a card and goodies from my cross-country BFF. She sent out a package to me nearly two weeks ago, and it finally arrived yesterday. What's up with the Post Office these days, anyway??

Seriously, how cute is that hippo?? I must have her :) She also included some fun Valentine's Day gifts. How "me" is this little fellow?

And socks! I love socks! My feet are always cold.

Lastly, she sent me this great alterable tin and some Studio G stamps. YIPEE! It's so funny that she sent me a tin because I just sent her a package with an alterable tin, too! We're on the same brain wave, obviously ;)

And that's it for now! I'm going to attempt to enjoy a relaxing weekend with the hubs. Perhaps I'll squeeze in a little creative time, too :) Have a great weekend!

Oh Sam, I'm so sorry I didn't know about Bay! I was so busy I wasn't checking blogs, then my computer was hit with a virus and out of commission for a week. I'm just now getting around to checking on people. I'm glad you were surrounded by friends, and the cards and packages you received are wonderful. Take care!
