The view from our room, sooooo nice!

Enjoying a glass of coastal wine, sooo good, and the fireplace in our room. That was a nice feature.

The BEST italian food ive ever had in my life! OMGosh it was sooo good! We are having our wedding reception there.

I have to say this was one of the best trips I've ever had in my life. The room was amazing, the food was amazing, the relaxation was so fantastic and very needed. We had the best time. I love the beach! I want to live there but making trips there will have to do for now. Thanks for letting me share my wee memories with you. ;)

Now I would love to share a card too. What would a post be without a card? lol I made this card for CARDS FOR KIDS. Please I urge you to check it out if you haven't already. Its a wonderful way to make a beautiful child smile. Check it out HERE.

CARDS for KIDS

Afternoon everyone! Hope your enjoying your day!! Today I just want to share with you quickly about Cards for Kids! If you haven't heard about the drive, well let me tell you all about it! 

This is the third round of Cards for Kids drive, by Jennifer McGuire. Shes so kind to do this and so are all her volunteers and her Dad goes everyday and picks up the cards from the post office. I already sent some cards in including some for the Cards for Grace drive which ended July 31st including my donation for the postage for all the cards they have to send.


I hope I can encorage you to check it out if you haven't already and send in some cards for those wonderful kids, to help cheer them up and brighten their day. Cards of encouragement, cheer, love and hope. Please go check out all the details HERE and read about all the wonderful kids! You can also have your kids make cards to send in like my daughter is doing. 


I want to share with you a card I did for Cards for Kids to add to my stack of cards to be sent soon.

Happy Wednesday!! Hope your having a wonderful day. Still making more posts here to get caught up... sorry to bombard you lol.

Theres also a separate CARDS for Grace drive. Jennifer is collecting cards for Grace, who lost her twin sister Ellie to cancer. So heartbreaking. Its hard when you loose a family member as I well know but I cant imagine loosing a twin. My father is a twin and he lost his twin brother Stanley in 2004, it was very very hard. For these cards they need them fast by the end of July. Mine are hitting the mail tomorrow and here they are, I would like to share what I made for her.

Jennifer showed a cute idea, see HERE, using colored pencils on kraft for the kids cards. Love it!
