Soooooooooo, how has everyone been?? I hope good.
As you can tell by the date of my last post here, life has gotten in my way a bit. No time to play. I did clean my stamp area!!

I did get a chance to make a card though.
There is a quirky little story behind it, and I will tell you the story first....

My 15 year old daughter is turning 16 soon. Sweet Sixteen. (yeah, I know, UGH!, lol)
For her birthday, she wanted a plane ticket to go visit family in New Hampshire.

Well, due to the airline being rediculous (that's me being polite), she misses her connecting flight in Charlotte NC, and ends up spending a night alone there! I was out of my mind nuts! I start making calls to people, as she is hysterically crying begging me to go get her!
No one in my family has ever been to Charlotte NC, and/or knows anybody there to call.

My daughter was fine, ended up in a nice hotel with food (all paid for of course by the airline). She even bought a North Carolina hoodie at the airport!
She got to NH the next afternoon.

That evening, I sat down at my stamp table to color. I just needed to calm down and relax. A few minutes later, the phone rings. It is a very nice lady who is interested in the TAC stamp set Tickled Pink, and she found this blog searching Google with the set name. We got to chatting about our lives and such, and I ask her where she is located.....
Charlotte, North Carolina.
How about that?!
So, she ordered the set, and right after I got off the phone, I made her this card and dropped it in the mail the next day.

They say it's a small world out there...especially in the stamping world.
