More sad news but I'm still thankful...

Hello everyone,

It is confirmed I have blighted ovum (anembryonic pregnancy) a common cause of miscarriage. So, I'm scheduled for D&C on Friday personally I need closure.
But again I am still so thankful for everything I have right now... my wonderful family, my loving husband, two beautiful healthy boys. And of course, for ALL of you for sending me your loving thoughts and prayers. Thank you!

Hugs, Maribeth :)

Sad, Sad News... :(

To my dearest Blogger Friends and Followers,

This past days I've been very sick... well, we found out I was pregnant and I was starting to have morning sickness... and I really do get severe nausea and vomiting :(
This really affected my time to craft and get motivated to create. And to add up with my N/V I had my first prenatal visit and found out I have some complications... I'm still hoping for the best but I have to give up my crafting for now :(
I will still try my best to create cards for All That Scraps Blog, so please visit me there every Monday for the rest of June :)

And I really want to THANK everyone for your wonderful and kind comments from my previous posts! And I would like to apologize for not responding fast enough to some of your comments.
I will return to blog world with my creations when I get better... I hope very soon.

Thank you everyone and I hope you all understand :)

I have some pictures of my cards I barely finished for ATS... I hope I'm still able to inspire you all... :)

My 4th Monday GDT Spotlight at All That Scraps!

Hello there!
I apologize once more for being so behind with my posting.  :(
But I THANK YOU for your precious time visiting my blog!  :)

It's Monday and I'm so thrilled to be featured once more at All That Scraps as Guest DT for this month of MAY!

For this card I used the NEW CC Design Swiss Pixie Cute Birgitta, the Stone Wall and the NEW AmyR Great Greetings set. I tried to follow the concept of making a Joy Fold Card but did a little twist to it to make this card...  :}

And for my second card I had to make this sweet little onesie card using the

Great Greetings set for my coworker up coming Baby Shower this month.

I think just using the NEW CC Design AmyR Great Greeting Set sentiments is perfect!
