from the #76 brag results

profile: A little bit about me...I am married to a wonderful man who is my best friend and patiently lets me create cards.   We have 2 children--a son who lives in Long Island, NY and a daughter who recently moved with her family from Chicago to Florida. This move was a real blessing for us since that puts our grandchildren close to us...Chicago was just too far away!!  We have a granddaughter who is 5, and 2 grandsons ages 3 & 1.  For over 20 years I was a Stampin Up Demonstrator, but in 2021 I let go of my demonstratorship. I still love scrapbooking & creating cards and have enough Stampin Up products to last me till eternity...so I will keep on creating!! I am currently designing for 3 challenge blogs: Cardz 4 Guyz, Sunday Stamps Challenge, and CAS on Friday. Proud to be a daughter of the Most High God--who was and is and is to come!!
