Oh the Joy!!!

I have to say I have met some great people, that I can call friends through this great hobby called scrapbooking. One of my favorite new friends is Aleida Franklin . We have chatted and e-mailed a few times and I have to say that she is quite a hoot! She had to have the MS scallop heart punch that I was able to find at my local Michaels. YAY!!! She was totally doing the "Happy Dance" when she recieved it. That made me happy, too!!

Aleida turned me on to Studio Calico . LOVE it there! Great kits! AWESOME people! And fun message boards! One of the people I met there is Gilda . I mentioned that I was going to meet Donna Downey and she asked if I could get an autograph for her. Donna was more than happy to oblige. She ROCKS!! I sent it right out to Gilda. She was so psyched!! That made me happy!!

Oh and of course, I can not forget my fellow Tony Stewart fan, Kathy . She just had a new baby boy on January 1st. So the appropriate gift had to be this:


I so wish I had had one of these! So COOL! She was so psyched! She called me when it arrived. Loved talking to her. We definately have to chat again!

Seeing how happy they were just made me feel great! Glad to add a little happiness to your day girls!!! Enjoy!!!


PS-Stacy D. , don't forget I have a page kit for you too! I can not wait till you see it. It is so CUTE!!!

You are absolutely correct. Aleida is a hoot and one of the nicest and friendliest people you will ever "meet".

I must have been sick when you mentioned you were taking a class with Donna. I would have asked to be stuffed into your scrapbook bag, so I could tag along. Maybe next time. LOL!
