Avery's First Birthday Card

I stamped this Penny Black image at a past Cal-gals meeting (I think it's Merlie's stamp...probably...that girl owns everything!). I struggled to make just the right card for Avery (this is the third iteration and the one I am actually happy with!).


Snap Cup of the Day: Thankful for my bro today. He called me after his visit today to see if my water softener was working as it should. Although I still don't know the answer (duh!), it was sweet of him to look out for me!

What's a water softener?

Is it something for cold places? Or is my house just so crappy that I'm missing out on something good?
