Cards really do mean a lot…

Posted on May 1, 2013May 1, 2013 by Josee

As some of you may know, my mom was diagnosed with lung cancer 3 1/2 years ago. It has been a very long, exhausting journey for the both of us and this past weekend she passed away peacefully in her sleep.

We knew it was coming, especially this past month, she just kept getting worse but it honestly does not make it any easier when it does happen.

This past weekend was also the Creativ Festival, so, between that and my mom…I am a bit behind. The good thing about Stampin' Up! is how flexible it can be…but honestly, working and keeping busy is good therapy for me, so please do not hesitate to ask any questions you have. (If I have not answered your email yet, I am getting to it…I promise.)

All this to say, that I don't have any creations to share so far this week, but, I received the loveliest card in the mail today from one of the amazing Inky Divas in my group, Sophia. (Thanks so much Sophia)

What a beautiful card…Sophia used Fabulous Florets on page 83…super duper pretty!

Words cannot explain the love I have felt from the many messages and the cards I have received from my Stampin' Up! family. I honestly do believe that my group and my customers are part of my support system and I am so thankful for each of you.

For my new Creativ Festival friends–I have just completed entering in the orders I received from the Creativ Festival…sorry for the extra couple of days it will take because I was behind.

We have some exciting things going on in Stampin' Up!…so, I'll point you in the right direction before I sign off:

    So sorry for the loss of your Mother. You and your family will be in my prayers. May your memories of the good times bring you happiness and light as you go this difficult time.
