I really love the cloche set and LOVE the Christmas bells you made with it. Sweet! So glad your root canal went well. They really have the procedure down well now. And I'm so glad to hear Rich is fine. Poor Lulu...it's bad enough being a human with a UTI, but not being able to speak. Well, I'm just happy she is fine now. And woohoo about the RV. I was curious (haha) and was looking at lots of fun floor plans for RVs. Sounds like you have a lovely one, and I know you are ALL going to love it! Thanks again for a lovely "visit," my friend!

I would love to travel the country like that, but I'm kind of a nervous rider and I don't think I could handle the stress of driving while towing it. Can't wait to see pictures. Maybe you'll even make it to Minnesota! :) Almost forgot - sorry about LuLu but so happy she's doing fine.Lynettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13755933774705586510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726403261110080226.post-17859468967822836602017-09-13T16:22:46.815-07:002017-09-13T16:22:46.815-07:00I am not sure how a root canal can be a piece of c...I am not sure how a root canal can be a piece of cake, but if you say so. :-) Glad that Rich is okay and everyone is doing well finally. The RV sounds so cool and I bet the puppies will love it traveling with you guys. Your cards are wonderful, oh I do love the balloons. That is so clever and they look totally 3d.

I LOVE bell jars, and have a few 'cloche' jars myself which will be coming out soon for fall! The cards with the jars are amazing, the poinsettias are gorgeous and the designs as well. I love, love that birthday card with all the pretty balloons! So glad that your family is all okay now, they say it comes in 3's so guess you had your 3!! Your RV sounds amazing (I hope you post some pics inside and out) I hope your travels will bring you to Michigan as it is so beautiful here with all the Great Lakes and your hubby can drive it across the Mackinaw Bridge or Mighty Mac as we like to call it...it sounds like your retirement is going to be so much fun...maybe you have a place in it to 'color at, too!!Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16568289914571514273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726403261110080226.post-81643873519033404972017-09-12T15:49:44.168-07:002017-09-12T15:49:44.168-07:00Wow, I love how you added those balloons under the...Wow, I love how you added those balloons under the oval for a cool 3D effect that is very unique!

Also good to hear all is well with your hubby too, got to keep him in shape for your fun times ahead in the RV, sounds like you made a great decision with it, and can't wait to see pics from your adventures :) I know you didn't mention it but I am sure you got one with a good table and plenty of space to have some cardmaking goodies on board :) Poor Lulu, glad she is doing better too, I think that is enough for you all now, do take care!Conniecrafterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09266327228870948083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726403261110080226.post-1237947380399214342017-09-12T07:10:15.557-07:002017-09-12T07:10:15.557-07:00Beautiful cards - your balloons look so dimensiona...Beautiful cards - your balloons look so dimensional and glossy!

I just love everything you color. EXQUISITE, and so lighthearted and sweet. Always, your artwork makes me feel peaceful, calm, happy, joyful, lovely - what a nice "ability" to give to your friends. Glad to hear about the root canal - good endodontists are like gold when you need them! Super happy to hear about Rich's followup check. Sorry to hear about Lulu - my kitty had a UT last year, and I felt so badly for her! Hoping Lulu feels like her old self soon. AND I CAN HARDLY WAIT to see your incredible traveling photos. I can imagine entire posts of beautiful landscapes, and fun tales (or should I say tails?). I envy you this opportunity. So as you travel, please carry me in your heart, knowing that I would treasure each of these travels as well. Maybe some day you'll make it all the way to Florida!<br />Sending happy hugs,<br />deDonna Ellishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16493910748228055970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726403261110080226.post-33201223654988231502017-09-08T09:24:13.521-07:002017-09-08T09:24:13.521-07:00Leslie, the cards are exquisite!!

But my story has been much more complex. i am going to document it on my blog soon; as I need a place to look back to. Many months and specialists later, no one knows what is wrong. I have several upcoming appointments...one with an oral surgeon and am hoping for some light shed on these issues. So glad your LuLu is better!<br />And am excited about your RV!

That’s one of the reasons I love this set, there are so many ways to use it. Those balloons are such a great pairing for the BD cupcakes, and I just LOVE the poinsettias in the cloche! So creative!
