WHAT? Lil' Chick's gettin' hitched?


Yup, that's right! My Lil' Chick is ENGAGED! The DH and I couldn't be happier for her, and talkin' about the most PERFECT fella, oh my, IS HE EVER! We couldn't have picked a better SIL if we tried. He even asked the DH for her hand ahead of time. Isn't that the sweetest? {sniff-sniff} Oh, and her ring is just STUNNING!
A few days later, she called the DH and I and asked, "hey, how do I clean my ring?" So, we both say at the same time "toothpaste" (we were on two different house phones), and then she says, "But it's PLATINUM!" So, of course, we both come back with, "Ewwwwwww, well we poor ol' gold folk wouldn't know anything 'bout PLATINUM!" Now you have to imagine, this went on for a good while and she got to laughing so hard at us teasing her. LOL! Hence the sentiment on her card! Needless to say, she LOVED it! Now, let the wedding plans begin... *sigh*
Oh and just a reminder, you hens still have until 7:00pm EST on Wednesday to enter this week's That's Krafty Thursday challenge! Come on and play along!! {{{hen hugs}}}

Supplies:
Stamp - Stamping Bella; CS - SU Soft Suede & Kraft, Neenah Classic Crest White, Dies - MFT Dienamics, SU Top Note; Copics; Stickles; Ribbon - Stamp Simply Ribbon; DP - DCWV

  14. Jeanie, Just wanted to mention that I had to try several times to do the word verification, the distorted word is soooo hard to read now.
    I get spam and I have thought of doing this too, but I know some people won't comment when they see it. Not complaining, just wondered if you knew.
    Luv, Babs xo
