Spiritual Thought Sunday and Happy Valentine’s Day!

By Robyn Cardon - February 14, 2016 - 2 Comments

Hello Everyone!

I hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day!  Most of you know that this is one of my most favorite days of the year.  I love celebrating the color PINK!!!  This morning we woke up and we had our traditional PINK breakfast that I started many years ago.  I don’t have to cook anything.  Just put pink donuts, and everything else pink or red I could find.  It’s a pretty simple ordeal but my family loves it.

Bryan surprised me with this ring for our 20th Valentine’s Day together!  I’m not big on jewelry and don’t wear a ton but I LOVE my new ring!!  I feel blessed to have 20 years together!
Chicken Update:
My little girls are now laying over a dozen eggs a day!!  Good thing we have neighbors who love our fresh eggs or we would be stuck with a TON of eggs!  I love how we are getting such a variety of colors, too!!
Spiritual Thought
Today was a wonderful day in church!  We heard from an elderly couple who were getting ready to go and serve a mission for our church in Hong King.  So awesome!
The biggest thing I took in today from church was trying to have Peace in my crazy, busy, chaotic life!  It’s a work in progress for sure!  One of the ways that I try to create a peaceful home is by listening to relaxing and uplifting music.  It can change the mood from night to day in my house.  ðŸ™‚
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!  
Hugs,
Robyn

Thoughtful Thursday – Stampin’ Up! Picture Perfect Card

By Robyn Cardon - February 11, 2016 - 13 Comments

Happy Thursday Everyone!


I hope you are all having a wonderful week!  I have been so productive with my Stampin’ Up! business!  So excited about that!  I was getting a little bit behind.  ðŸ™‚  Today I have already filmed, edited, and uploaded THIS video along with filming my Going Global Online Class Video!!  Woo hoo!!  Now I just need to finish  my boys’ Valentine treat bags, edit my Going Global Class, make thank you cards for my February customers, finish my group team swap, oh ya…….  and then I have to be MOM and start my taxi service at 3:45!  In just a little over an hour!!  LOL!!


For the past 2 or 3 days the city where I live has been REALLY smoggy and foggy!!  I have NEVER experienced this where we live and I guess it’s not super normal.  My daughter called me from school on Tuesday and asked why she couldn’t see hardly anything!  I hadn’t even noticed!  Today we woke up and the smog/fog had actually FROZEN and there were crystals floating in the air and stuck to EVERYTHING!  Karlee told me it’s called frozen fog.  I’ve never heard of it but you all probably have.  I just stepped outside to take this picture from My Pink Loft’s balcony and you can’t even see the mountains!



Here is today’s video!  I am starting a weekly segment on my blog called “Thoughtful Thursdays”.  I want to remember why I started making cards in the first place and actually brightening someone’s day with a hand stamped card.  I encourage you all to do the same thing.  Please use #mpsthoughtfulthursday if you would like me to check out the cards you have made and why you have made them.  I am robynstamps on Instagram.


This card has turned out to be one of the most favorite cards I have made this year.  I was feeling uninspired this morning but pulled out these stamp sets and some ink pads and started playing.  It’s a good lesson to us all that we sometimes need to get inky to get “thinky”!!  LOL!!  Do you like my quote??!!
