Heart Felt Get Well and another visit to the playground

When I think pink, I think Di, and if you read her blog, you'll know why.  I thought of her often as I was making this card....I wonder why!  My buddy Dee Dee scraps at the Scrapin Place in Loveland Colorado.  Terri, the owner gifted me the stamp set I used on this card.  I know if I'd caught a bug, I'd love getting a card made with these stamps.  So, Thank You Terri for the great set of stamps. 
Here's the inside....
A story about snippets....I went into my craft room to tidy up.  Actually I went in with a shovel (not quite, but close).  And as I was putting paper away, I found the decorative pink piece.  Laying close was the solid pink.  I put them away, and then I spotted the rubber stamp, which was waiting to be stamped and cataloged.  My little mind started working overtime.  But I continued with my task of putting my toys away.  When I got to the dies.....I could no longer control my need to make this card.  Long story short....tomorrow I'll be back in my craft room putting things away.  A side note:  As a little girl, my daughter Amy would go to her room to tidy up.  Sometimes, hours later, I'd look in on her and notice that little was done, but she'd be sitting on her bed looking at treasures she'd found in the closet or a drawer.  I thought of her today as I started and stopped cleaning my craft room.  Amy, what was frustration when you were a little one, has turned into a very cherished memory! 

Poor Di, she's getting another visit from me.  She'll be happy when the gates to the playground are locked.  I've been running wild in the playground.  Spring is bringing out the playfulness in all of us.  Isn't it wonderful to see the sun.  Well....off I go.... to play in the playground...check it out here.

See you soon,
