Hello Friends! What are you doing
this summer? We made a 17 day road trip to MO and several other states in
April, trying to beat the heat. It ended up being 95 in Wichita, KS the
day we were there and 29 was the low near Denver, CO the same night. Quite
a difference in temperatures for sure. I ended up getting COVID for the
2nd time this year; so I was sick for 6 days of our trip. I wore a mask
everywhere except when I ate.
I
enjoyed visiting many of our family members that we had not seen in 6-7
yrs. It is difficult for me to travel being allergic to smells;
especially cleaning supplies. I have to call every hotel in advance
to find out what laundry detergent they use and whether or not they have air
fresheners in their lobbies, halls and rooms. It is quite an ordeal for me
before I can even make a reservation. I am also allergic to chorine
smell; so I have to be at least two floors above the pool and away from the
elevator.
My husband does all the driving; and we get there quicker with him driving. Lol! We managed to see a lot of fun tourist spots. I would love to be able to travel more; but it takes me a month to recover from the trip and get clothing aired out before I can wash it. I still have to wash everything 3 times before drying them; or the cleaning smells are still there from the hotels.
I am
sharing another one of my cards that I created using this fabulous digital
paper and digital card fronts from Anne Constantly Carding. The link is
above the photo. I created about 26 or more cards so far using this
gorgeous floral paper; with no duplicates.

All CTMH products are retired. CTMH's last day of business was June 30, 2024. I will continue to list the products and numbers; and will be using CTMH supplies until they run out.
FYI: I am not promoting or selling any products. I am sharing the products I used as a courtesy to the people who read my blog; and because many of the challenges now require a list of products used.

CTMH is out of business now; so my part as a CTMH consultant ended April 30, 2024. I will continue using their products for as long as I have supplies. They are still my favorite products and I will always have a place for them in my crafting and in my heart.
A beautiful card with a lovely sentiment inside. Thank you for sharing with us at Try it on Tuesdays.

It's perfume that gets me, it never fails when I am at a wedding or funeral someone sits by me loaded with it, it gets in my throat and I can taste it and then cough and cough, people need to be more respectful, a little bit goes a long way lol!!
