Good Things

I'm letting my inner Martha out and sharing some "good things" with you today.

Good Thing #1: Sketchy Thursdays is hosting another second chance challenge, and it's a card sketch once again! I decided to use the sketch inspiration for my sister's birthday card - a vintage-inspired library pocket. A gorgeous set of {ippity} stamps is up for grabs. Head on over for all the details!


Good Thing #2: I feel very blessed. I found an inpiring blog - Rachie's Place. A little comment I left earned me some amazing blog candy. A Christmas scrapbooking kit with oodles of embellies and vintage goodies, a vintage green glass compote (I think it may hold jewelry on my dresser - not sure yet), and a stack of vintage childrens Christmas books. Merry Christmas to me!


Good Thing #3: I am an elf. Yep. A singing, dancing elf. I have the wonderful opportunity to be in a theater group called "The Enchanted Entertainers". A group of moms here in my little town produce plays for the children and it is SO MUCH FUN! "The Elf Who Stole Christmas" is my first play, and I had the chance to choreograph a fantastic little dance number! We perform for all the schools and the community on Thursday. I am so excited! I will post pictures this weekend.

Good Thing #4: I've always loved everyone I've met named Joy, and my new friend Joy is no exception! By chance we met through Etsy and over several emails I have a new Facebook friend and a ribbon exchange partner! I sent Joy some Santa ribbons and look what she sent me:

It feels good to count my blessings every once in awhile. We are truly blessed, every day. We just need to remember to look around for those "good things". I hope you are having a wonderful day! I'll soon be sharing a couple of custom albums I've made, so stay tuned :).
