Making Shanoah's wedding invites!

Chelsea & I have been working on Shanoah's wedding invites this week.
There are 250 of them!
Just look at the piles of card stock.
I helped do the cutting, scoring & the stamping of 'Mr. & Mrs'.
Chelsea did all of the printing.
Shanoah is coming home this weekend & they are planning to put everything together.
 This is a tri-fold invite......I'll show you more after she sends them out.
I don't want to spoil the excitement.
I think they are really pretty!!

This invite is similar to my Founders swap that I posted last September.

 *********
Drake has an ear recheck- dr appt today.  We are hoping that his ear infection is cleared up.
I know I have my fingers crossed!

Manda has an early meeting again today, so I'm  headed to their house to get the boys & stay there until Drake's appt.  If all goes well for Papa Deke this morning, he is going to keep Brody at home while I take Drake to the dr, as we are figuring that going to the drs office would be a great place for Brody to pick up something & get sick & we sure don't need that.  He needs to stay healthy for his surgery next week!
(Which is original surgery was suppose to be today!)

I am wondering how much snow we are going to get hit with this afternoon/evening?
Will tomorrow be a snow day??? filled with stamping????

Have a great day!!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

Hope you have a wonderful day!!
Happy Stamping!

'Feeling Sentimental'

Good morning!
Here is a cool card that my downline Dawn Klein made as her shoe box swap at our last group meeting.
I love her vintage style!!
She is so talented!!

'Feeling Sentimental' (SAB) & 'Petite Pairs'
cs:  Baja Breeze, Midnight Muse, Naturals Ivory
ink:  Basic Gray, Versamark pad
marker:  Basic Gray
supplies:  Big Shot, Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder, Silver Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, 2 1/2" Circle punch, Window Frames Framelits, 1/8" Mini Brads, Piercing Tool, Piercing Mat, 2 Toned Gray ribbon, Color Spritzer Tool, dimensionals

I have tons going on in the next 1 1/2 weeks as I get ready for all of my upcoming events for the rest of February & the beginning of March.
I have to get everything ready before Brody's surgery so that I don't have to worry about it during that time.

We are very happy that Brody has another surgery date scheduled!
We ask that you pray that he stays healthy & can have his surgery this time as scheduled.
And we also need prayers for him & his team of drs as they preform his surgery.
(And we need to pray that Drake stays healthy too- so Brody doesn't get anything.)

Thanks so much!
Have a super day!
Happy Stamping!

HI!
This is an update that Manda shared on their blog today.....

Brody's Surgery- Rescheduled!


Neuro called this morning and they have an opening in the OR schedule.......they are getting Brody in on Friday, March 1st...... just 11 days away!  I, once again, am having mixed emotions but I'm definitely feeling a sense of relief that we aren't going to have to continue this waiting game into April!  Please, please keep Brody in your prayers as he continues down this journey in the coming days and weeks!! My goal is to post to the blog each morning while we are in the hospital so you are all able to stay updated on his progress.  We have been told the surgery will last 7 hours and to expect to be in the hospital for 5 days.  Thank you all!  Manda, Steve, Brody & Drake

Here is their blog link:   http://theseeleys.tumblr.com/

I too will try to post something each day here about updates.
Thanks for your prayers!! 
Hugs!
