Seasons Giving Blog Hop Year 7!
Hello friends!
Welcome to the 2019 Seasons Givings Blog Hop!
Can you believe this is the 7th year we are doing this?!
Thank you so much to all of the loyal blog readers who support me, as well as the companies that I work for. I love the card making/paper craft community. We all love to make cards, that will make someones day. There truly is no selfless act like sending handmade happiness in the mail to someone.
I cannot believe that 2018 is already over. I felt every single minute of my age this year. I saw more wrinkles, more grey hair, more weight...but with all of those negative things in the back of my mind. I have never been happier in my life, my marriage, being a mother and a friend. With age comes wisdom, and I truly never realized that until this year. I do not sweat the small things anymore, I am prayerfully grateful for my health, my family and friends. There is a lot that I keep private from readers and on social media. I think keeping good deeds close to my heart and not sharing them, keeps me humble. One of the most soul fulfilling things I do, is help people. I help strangers and friends/family because its a calling. This year I had a lot of heart to heart talks with God. What I want to leave you with is this. If you feel pulled to do something for someone, but you keep talking yourself out of it. Stop. Do the good deed. It will make your cup overflow. With that said, I hope 2019 brings you so much happiness that you feel like you are magic. Love you all!

Favorite memory of 2018? I have many but getting married in August was the best.
My fave memories are whenever our children are here at the same time so we are all together. I cannot think of a specific memory that can top that for me!
I had a few favorite memories last!
year, e.g.the visits from our son, who lives normally in Shanghai. This memories are the best and when I had funny moments with my husband of course.
I live on a small farm and keep chickens. My favourite memory from 2018 was having one of my hens hatch out some chicks. One of them was attacked by the other hens and I ended up hand rearing her in the house. I became her mommy and although she is now an adult bird the bond is still there. Cheers.

My favorite moment was turning 50 and my coworkers making a "50" out of post it notes. Each post0it note had a sweet or funny memory that person and I had shared. I teach middle school with the BEST people!
Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year!
My best crafting memory was in January of 2018 was meeting a stamping friend from Florida who flew to Wisconsin to join me at a local stamping event--thanks Kelly!
Thanks so much for your generosity and inspiration!
My wonderful memory of this year is seeing and holding my first grandchild. He was born in September and brings light to the world. 😍
Happy 2019 to you and your family!

This might be your 7th year - really?? - but it's the first time for me hehe. My favourite memory of 2018 is making it out of my surgeries - not keen on any repetiton in the coming year!
Just in case this giveaway is not open internationally - good luck to everyone and have a crafty and healthy 2019!!
My favorite memory from 2018 was meeting brave women and girls in 4 cities in India who are learning leadership skills, work skills while not forgetting to give back to their community. Very inspiring!
Happy New Year! ������
I got to see my 4 year old niece spend time with my 102 year old grandma, that was pretty amazing!
My most memorable and hardest thing to do was taking my girl to college. God is good and it has been a rewarding experience for us both
My favourite memory of 2018 was a trip to Newfoundland ( an eastern island province in Canada) It is breathtakingly beautiful, the people are generous and take proud of their places and the fish is wonderful. This is a place for everyone's bucket list!
My warmest memory : thanks to selling christmas (and other) cards and other (mostly handmade) products on a local christmas-market we were able to donate a beautiful sum of money for the research on Alzheimer's desease. (My father passed away this summer, he had Alzheimer --- the most painfull/sad memory of this year).
Thanks for your generous give-away, good luck to all of us !
Happy, healthy, creative New Year from Belgium.
My favorite memories for this year and fun times at the pool with my great-nephews - guaranteed to make every day fun!
Happy New Year!!! My favorite memory from 2018 was taking a trip with my College friends and their families. It has become a new annual tradition for us and it's really more about making time for each other and showing how much we care even as we all lead busy and stressful lives. This has also lead to sharing more handmade happiness the past holiday season.
My favorite memory of 2018 was the purchase of our new FARM 😂 !
My most memorable moment was being together with family during the summer. Spending moments and making memories
