Eighteen years ago, Scott and I pledged to share our lives. It was blazing hot that day, the church was packed with friends and family, standing room only, my train was very long, I was afraid I would trip on the steps. We were not the only ones wiping our eyes. Many people told me after 'it was so clear how much you love each other, it was radiating from both of you'. I was nervous walking up the steps in that dress, but I never had a moment's hesitation on saying 'I do'.
A simple card to let my guy know he still has my heart.
Our wedding colors, white and cobalt. Don't judge....it was the 90s! haha
It looks like smudges sigh, but the background is versamarked hearts.
Aren't they cute all popped up? And, yes, 18 of them. I'm a geek like that.
Counting our time together before the wedding, we've been together over half of my lifetime. We were such babies when we got together! lol I knew I loved him. I knew he was My One. I envisioned a great life together, but I really had no clue how much AMAZING was waiting for us. I told him I would do it again in a heartbeat. Not just words for me, I would. You know that feeling when you get home from vacation? That sigh that you're 'home'. That's how I feel with Scott. He's my home.
As I looked at my to do list this morning, I thought 'it sure would be nice to be heading to Aruba in two days!' lol Guess I'll stay in STL and tackle this week's list instead.
Thanks for looking!
Today I'm grateful for sharing my life with my very best friend, who also happens to be super cute and has wonderfully broad shoulders. ;)

I used Mojo Monday Sketch 182 as my jumping off point. The card is glittery and sparkly and just FUN. 
whew I'm so glad I can say 'your book is good' and be truthful. ;-) So, I AM proud of her for going for it and her book IS good. It's The Farmer's Story. It's very neat for me since it's set partly in my town and many of the details are from our childhood. Sharing those details here would bore you, I'm sure, but made the story extra special for me. Her story itself is very good even without that life connection. I truly am very proud of KJ!
Emily saw it and said 'oooooh, glitter'. I love this quote from my favorite wise bear.
I wanted to use this cute Prima as my 'bow'. It's a happy accident that the flower was a bit too big and covered up the top of the ribbon which makes it look like a flower.
I wanted to use purple, so I rummaged in the stack and found a green and blue that I liked with the purple. I grunged up the blue a bit by inking my 'Bug folder. You can't see it in the photo, but the center of the flower has black stickles. It's subtle, but very cool in person.
The panel and hearts are popped up. It doesn't show, but the black is actually glitter paper for some edginess.
A very simple card to let that poem shine.
