HAPPY NEW YEAR--AND A SAD GOODBYE TO TWO OF OUR NEAREST AND DEAREST

HAPPY NEW YEAR'S

Dear Stampin' from the Heart Family and Friends

As we all start this New Year, I would like to wish each of you and your family members a very happy, healthy and prosperous year.  Here's wishing you love in your lives, miracles that are seen and wonderful memories with families during the year.  Something you might want to do during the year--get a gallon jar and keep post-it notes next to it; at the end of the day put a note in it about what good happened that day, then at the end of the year go back and read what you have written--you will see many smiles, hugs and miracles.

This was a sad year in the fact that we lost one of our own.  Nina Montoya (my assistant and co-hort) from the start of Stampin' from the Heart was taken from us.  She was diagnosed with Colon Cancer in July 2014 and she fought, laughed and did all she could do to battle this disease.  She did things that she never tried before, she went on trips to see family, she did Disneyland with her daughter.  She will be very sadly missed.  Thank all of you who made her last days happy by visiting and crafting with her.

Now news coming from a different front; two of our own, Judy Urvan and Susan London will be leaving our area to sojourn with their respective families.  The following is an invitation from Ellie to come say good-bye to our girls before they leave for good--we hope to see many of you come.
