Little Birdie tags

Hey everyone! I hope everyone is having a fantabulous Wednesday... I made several of these little round tags last night, they were quick and easy and I liked how they turned out. Last night was the first time I used Stickles on anything! I love that stuff, I need to find a good source to order it from. I had picked up a Christmas pack at Michaels, I wish they carried it all the time and in many colors, if I'm missing it meone please let me know where to find it in the store. :) Anyway, back to my tags. I used SU Whisper White card stock to stamp the birdies on, and they I used the SU scallop punch as well. The birdies are from the valentine bundle that is available through Jan. 31 for 20% off. The other card stock is what I had in my stash and the ribbon is Martha Stewart - I love it too!lol

Thanks for stopping by, let me know what you think about the little tags. Hopefully I will get to do more tonight and I will share what I get done. :D

Speak Out, Get Involved, Inspire Action

Help Expand Cystic Fibrosis Research & Care
Please, YOU can make a difference in just 5 minutes.
Please tell Washington to support childrens health.
http://www.cff.org/GetInvolved/Advocate/
They are going to use $ to support research anyway, please help encourage them to support research in finding a cure for Cystic Fibrosis. Cystic Fibrosis is an idividual disease, and affects everyone differently.

If you didn't know it already, Lindsey, my baby was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis when she was about 4 weeks old. We are blessed that she is thriving right now, no signs whatsoever. Right now we are taking precautions to keep her healthy in hopes it will be a long time to come before we see any kind of symptoms. The doctors can't promise us anything one way or another about her health. They can't tell us when she will be affected, right now we take her to the pediatrician and to see the doctors at the Childrens Hospital in Madera on a regular basis. They will let her body tell us what we need to do with her. If you don't know somebody with CF already, chances are you will sometime since they are diagnosing CF during newborn screenings and adults are now being diagnosed more often as well. We need a cure!

Thank you for helping us do our part...

HUGS

WOW! I just finished watching this video at Andrea's blog and I gotta say it was a great way to start my day. THANK ANDREA! You know, not only can a hug change somebody's day but it can make a world of difference in your day and even in your life. Yesterday, a friend of the family passed away at 32 years old. She was a wife, loving mother, friend, sister, & daughter and touched many lives in her job as a caregiver. She had been going to the doctor for two years comlaining of pain in her back but they all brushed her off because she was so young. Last week she awoke to be completely paralyzed! Come to find out cancer had been spread throughout her entire body and yesterday it took her life. It left her husband a widow, her children without their Mommy, and her Mom with one less daughter and her sisters and friends with a huge loss too. Although I didn't know her very well, she still held a special place in my heart as she was a part of a life changing experience that my family went through - my mother-in-law's passing. She was a care giver to her when we brought her home to live her last days. Not only did she care for her as if she was her own family but she was there everyday to offer a hug to me too, those hugs helped. I knew her well enough to know she was a very special person and a very caring person...

So, hug your loved ones as you never know what tomarrow will bring. Don't be stingey with your hugs, okay... It could mean the world to someone, especially in todays world where there are so many challenges.
