Blog Candy: I’m Celebrating . . .

by on February 6, 2010

 

. . . 2 years of blogging!!   More than 500 posts and 1000 pictures behind me, the time has unbelievably flown by!  Take it from me, the pleasure has been all mine!!   Getting to know you all, keep busy and growing with in the craft have been a blessing.

In celebration of the two year anniversary, I’m giving some blog candy.  Central to what I’m giving is my one of my  favorite Spellbinders Frames.    I thought it would be a neat item to give because through feedback you all have inspired me to do a tutorial on the Woven Lattice Card that I made in December.  I should have the tutorial ready and posted in the next day or two :-) 

In the meantime, here are the rules for the Blog Candy.  Feel free to submit your name once each day from Sunday, February 7th until the end of the candy which will be Friday, February 12th at Midnight.   I’m including a special secret bonus, if the name that I’ve picked has entered at least 5 of the 6 days the Blog Candy is available.   I’ll announce the winner on Saturday morning and will give the winner 48 hours to respond to me through my contact page before I pick the next name. 

Okay, so here’s what I’d love for you to share in your comment . . .  my daughter told me about a show she watched called the Buried Life.  On the show the four guys who are cast members have a list of 100 things they want to do before they die.  For every one thing they cross off their list, they help a stranger cross one item off of the strangers "Bucket List".  Surely you’ve heard of "Bucket List" right?  If not, please google it before you leave your comment.  For each day you enter, I want to know, one item from your "Bucket List."  They say not to put your dreams off until "someday" so I hope this is the start of a list for you.  :-)   Here are some of the listed examples they checked off on the show – plant a tree, help someone build a house, give a stranger a $100.00 bill, send a message in a bottle, pay for someone’s groceries . . . you get the idea?  I can’t wait to see what you come up with.

You have inspired me to start my own bucket list and one of the things on it is to visit at least five more national parks. They are so beautiful– I love nature and use it in my cards often.

1st off let me say thank you for taking the time to share all your dreams, struggles and spectacular projects. You are a blessing to many Becca. It’s funny, my husband and I are married 35 years and tend be same old same old. This last summer we stepped out of our comfort zone and flew out west for a wonderful 3 week tour of Arizona, Utah and Ca. The newness and beauty of each day really sparked something fresh within our relationship. So… each month we plan to try something new. Our church has so many wonderful opportunities to serve that we can start right there. Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.

I would like to say thank you Becca for sharing your beautiful creations with us. Yours is my favorite blog I follow because yours is a sweet spirit! I know that when I browse through your lovely entries that I will sense the presence of God. Next, thank you for your very generous blog candy offer! Someone will be blessed by it indeed! Finally, on my bucket list I will one day hand a homeless person (not someone with their hand out on a street corner) but someone I see sleeping outside, a $100 bill. And I will pay for them to stay in a hotel-not a dirty, cheap motel, but one where they can clean up and sleep well for 2 or 3 nights. This is just one of the desires of my heart! Blessings to you!

Congrats Becca on the 2 years. I have only known about your website for approximately 3 months or so. Boy am I glad God led me to your blog. You are such an inspiration. I absolutely love your work.

I don’t have a bucket list, but guess I really need to start one. At least I’ve never really thought of it as a bucket list, but maybe it already is. Anyway, I would really love to visit Greece.

Thanks for the chance to win the blog candy.

Congratulations on the two year mark.
I’ve done little things in the past like paying for someone’s milk and bread when they were counting their change to pay for it or giving some cash to a little old lady at the grocery store whom I overheard saying she’d like something, but couldn’t afford it. That’s the kind of thing I’d like to do more of. It’s a terrific feeling!
I’d love to scuba dive the Great Barrier Reef before I die too! *grin*

I make a point of telling at least one student in school something to make them smile each day – I try to do this to this for the students who don’t have a lot to smile about, whether it is telling them that I love the color of their top on them, or just sharing a joke with them, as long as I get a genuine smile out of them, I am satisfied. This is a selfish act, as I get to see immediate results. And it makes me smile.

I LOVE that show! Wow what a big question but I’ve been watching and it has me pondering the same one. I guess I’ll start off small I want to get published! I got rejcted from a bunch of design teams then had some health issues now I’ve let my blogging go and motivation to get published right with it. Hopefully I’ll be able to turn it around soon:) you inspire me so much. I’ll have to dig deep for what else is on my bucket list- how fun!

On my bucket list my #1 thing would be to become and better Christian. And by doing that I would have to start out by learning to forgive and forget to the person that has hurt me so much in this world. I think once I can tackle that the rest would fall so easily behind.

Thank you for two wonderful years of sharing your amazing gifts with all of us. First and foremost for my list, and I would like it to be my way of thinking is to “Celebrate the magic in ordinary days” – each day is a gift from God, and I hope to live by that thought each and every one of them. I think we all need to appreciate how magic our ordinary can be!

Becca you are blessed in so many areas of your life it may not seem like it at times but you inspire so many others with your kindness and caring nature. I am subscribed to so many web sites most I don’t have the time to look at any more, but yours I make sure to check every time I see it in my inbox. On my “Bucket List” (that movie made me cry) is to help someone who would then turn around and help someone else. I have already started setting up times to help at the local food bank.

Congrats Becca on your 2nd Blogaversary! I am celebrating my first right now! You have been a wonderful source of inspiration and thoughtfull introspection.
I started a bucket list several years ago when I was a more avid scrapbooker. I have crossed off several of my “100 things to do before I die” list. One that remains is to visit each of the 50 States.

Congratulations on your 2 year anniversary. I think I must have followed your blog every day for nearly the whole of that time – at least, since I started blogging and my 2 year anniversary is on the horizon as well.

One thing I have on my ‘bucket list’ is to cruise the Norwegian Fjords. It’s been a dream of mine for years but somehow have never got to do it. One day …..
Now I’ll have to sit and think of other things and make them happen rather than just wait to see what the days bring.

Hi Becca

Congratulations! What an achievement – 500 posts and 1000 pictures! And every one a winner I might add! I feel I should be offering you blog candy, rather than the other way around, as you give so much of yourself and your talent!

One of the things I want to do is visit all of those people on my Christmas card lists, especially the elderly ones, whom I haven’t seen for years. Every December as I write the cards and letters, I think to myself that the next year will be the one when I will make those visits. Needless to say, we are now in February…..!

Thank you for giving me a nudge in the right direction.

Thanks and hugs

congrats Becca on your anniversary..that’s awesom!!! on my list I’d love to be able to help all of the homeless people in our country. I think there is no need for our country to have homelss living on the streets with no food/shelter. I always was taught to take care of your own before you go off and help take care of others (meaning other countries). Don’t get me wrong, I love that we help other countries, but our own should be on the list first.

Thanks for achance to win your awesom blog candy.

I try to visit your page EVERY SINGLE DAY! You are quite the inspiration to me and, I’m sure, to many! I started my bucket list two years ago and am pleased to say that “it’s really FUN getting off that couch”. When you have something to aim for… a goal to reach, it is much easier than to say… “I’ll do it SOMEDAY!” Setting a time limit actually make my goals and bucket list more attainable. So, what’s next on mine? To help someone achieve THEIR dreams and goals…even if it is just one. I am helping to send a boy I know on a church mission that he feels will help many in return. Make it happen! THANKS, Becca! You’re the best!

Congratulations, Becca – we’ve enjoyed it as much as you have! My bucket list… I’ll start with a biggie. I’ve had a dream for many, many years to create a women’s retreat for women who are in crisis, in sorrow, whatever, and if money is an issue, they can come for whatever they can afford, if anything. I always thought it was impossible (impossible/not qualified/not enough money etc etc) 3 years ago I went out on a VERY precarious limb, and with 2 partners, purchased nearly 20 acres above Kootenay Lake in BC. Now my circumstances have changed, and I cannot afford to keep my portion. Finding a way to do so AND make this dream a reality is the top of my bucket list!!!

Just a note to thank you so much for your blog that you supply each
week–you are such a blessing! Second, I thank God for your talent
and willing to reach out to others to share. I plan on viisting a resident

Happy blog anniversary! The first thing that comes to mind for me is to take a trip with a friend. Something I’ve never done. It looks like I’ll be able to cross that off my list this year as my best friend and I are planning to go to Paris for 1-3 months this September.

My bucket list is long and picking the most important wish is hard. I guess seeing all 50 states would be the first on the list. Only 14 or 15 more states to go and I will work on that this summer.

Hello Becca, your blog’s are so enspiring to each of us. I would have to say the first thing on my bucket list is something you do everyday. I want to start our easy by having a word of encouragement for someone every single day. I would love to be able to make someone feel better about themselves. Especially if they are having a bad day. There are so many day’s all someone needs is a friendly face and a :).

Becca,

I do have a “bucket List” it’s in my head but I do have one none the less. Perhaps I should be putting them on paper and now that I am going to type some of them I feel inspired to do so. Everybody hears “start your life, do it today, don’t put it off any longer” but for many people I think they are just words. To actually write them out and SEE them may help to focus on what you really want in life and so with that being said: I’d would like to travel to Ireland! I have alot of Irish in me and it was my grandfather’s dream to visit Italy and Ireland (who we are – I know I know – volital mix right? hehe) He was diagnosed with cancer and got to italy and to the vatican and upon his return became very Ill and was never able to get to Ireland and so I very much want to go to Ireland.

Thank you Becca for this “assignment” it truely has inspired me already.

My hubby and I have a “Bucket List” and have been crossing off things, and adding things since Feb 2005 when we did the first crossing off. It was to visit a Caribbean Island…..which we did. St. Maarten was our first adventure for our 30th Wedding Anniversary! We recently took off our list “support our local Children’s Hospital with a monthly donation”. Last year we were lucky enough to be financially in the position to do that. Now to add our local “Variety Club Children’s Charity” to that monthly donation……………..

Maybe we don’t put the effort into it that others do. So on my bucket list is to make not a card that I am satisfied with, but a card that I can be truly wowed by!!

CONGRATULTATIONS on what has been a wonderful 2 years of inspiration! Hoping you continue to inspire us all for many more years to come!

An item on my bucket list ….there are many but one dear to my heart is to help those in need and give back what I can. Life is filled with so many blessings the least I can do is to do help someone else who is in need…of a shoulder to cry on, help a senior with daily chores, give encouragement to a child who is needs that extra moment or two to learn or do something to enrich their life. To look with fresh eyes and do what can be done to help nearly anyone!

My father was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s this past year.

The first first thing on my Bucket List is to spend as much time with him as I can.

The second thing on my list is to start scrapbooking his life. As time passes, he is going to start forgetting things and people, and I want to have a visual way for him to see the past that he may not be remembering anymore.

Love you blog Becca and like other my bucket list has been in my head for a long time. Seems I know what I need to be doing it’s just doing it. I have no problem helping others with their lists but getting my own done well that’s another issue. 1st on my list and I’m trying to do it is getting exercise everyday. It will help with the 2nd on my list of getting rid of this extra 40lbs I don’t need. I’ll be back with number 3 tomorrow.

Congratulations, Becca, on two years of blogging…believe me, the pleasure is all ours! You are an amazing and inspiring woman, and I can’t wait to see what you’ll create in future…it’s bound to be awesome.

Unfortunately, I have two “firsts” on my bucket list. My sister has had breast cancer twice and is now receiving chemotherapy for a spot on her lung. First on my bucket list is to be as much help to her in her day-to-day activities as possible (she has a 15-year-old son and a resale shop). My mother has congestive heart failure and is slipping away from us. My other first bucket list item is to spend as much time with her (and my father) as possible and to make her last bit of life as comfortable as possible.

It’s so funny that you are doing this. I’ve been planning since the first of the year to make the ‘perfect’ little notebook. I want to use it to record all the things I want to do or make or buy or research in the coming days, months and year. I haven’t made it because I want it to hold up to the torture of my purse but still look pretty. I don’t want it to be too big or too small. I told ya it needed to be perfect.
I guess the first thing on my list should be to STOP being a perfectionist. It really holds me back from trying a lot of things. Okay.. it’ll be the first thing. I’ll make that little notebook today. Maybe I’ll put it on my blog.
I want to exercise and lose some weight this year.
I want to spend less money but still feed my stamping habit.
I want to learn how to digital-scrapbook.
Another dream would be for me to be a fraction as talented as you. How do you do it? I’m so amazed at all the talent I see here.

Okay…I’ve got to get busy on my little notebook of dreams and ideas. I’ll stamp my pages and use my Zutter Bind-it-All.

take care and I hope you have a wonderful day!

I have added a few more things that are extremely important to me, get closer to god, help others on a daily bases, do not pass judgment on others, always say I love you to my family and friends, give to a charity each year, stuff like that, I believe that everyday is a gift from god and that we should all be thankful and always help out our each other.

Congratulations, Becca, on your fruitful two years of blogging! WTG! During that time, you have provided so many wonderful examples of what we COULD do with our hidden (and not-so-hidden) talents! You have certainly motivated me!

Hmm, Bucket List – before it was called that, DH and I did many things that have already been listed above. At our age, we have a lot of mileage behind us! We tend to help another when we see a need. One thing I have left to do for myself is to take a cruise to Alaska. I’ve always wanted to see that state. A cruise just sounds calming.

Thank you for the opportunity to win the amazing blog candy posted. I wish you many more years of blogging success!

Helping others is #1 on my bucket list.

In Canada we have a coffee shop called Tim Horton’s and it’s a given that 50% of the people who drive thru pay for the order behind them…it is a small gesture but paying it forward feels so good!

I have started to do the same thing here with Starbuck’s as I’m sure others do to and for now it’s all my budget will allow but, every little bit helps.

I would also like to have my own blog and etsy shop up and running in 2010…wish me luck:)!

A Bucket List. I’ve seen the movie – but haven’t really given much thought to the things I want to do before I die – but after a little reflection I remembered that from the time I was 14 I wanted to travel to Australia and hold a Koala bear. I am now 50 years old – and would still love to have that opportunity.

A Bucket list… I hadn’t heard of that before… did you say we’re limited to one? I’d like to volunteer at a hospital to rock babies. I love babies and anticipate great joy from grand children in the coming years.
Thanks for the opportunity to reflect on meaningful activities!

This is a wonderful idea! Thank you for not only the blog candy opportunity, but for the Bucket List idea. It is something I need to start and keep at, better than a New Year’s resolution or two.
The first thing on my bucket list is spend at least 1 day a month with my children just doing what they want to do; where my full attention is on them and nothing else. We don’t do that often enough now.

Hello Becca, I would love to make more baby hats for newborns for the hospitals here or for babies in other countries who need them. I had a friend who made over a 1000 of these hats before she passed away. I have only made 200+ and would like to make more.
Congratulations to you and to us because we’ve been lucky to see all your creations.

First congrats to you for having this amazing blog and for sharing your faith with so many. I have heard of a “Bucket List” before but never ever had the chance to write it down. There are many things that are on my list, but something that I have wanted to do since a child and the other since my young teenage years was to play the piano and to write a Christian Novel. I love reading Karen Kingsbury books and other Christian Novels and I have always liked to write. About 2 years ago I started writting a novel, but had to stop due to health issues. So my biggest dream is to finish that book and get it published. Tell you daughter I said thanks for giving you this idea. It really is a thought provoking question and a great one at that. God Bless.

So with that under my belt, this senior gal must start playing those $l.00 lottery tickets because my dream is of helping others…Smile Train, Make a Wish, Fresh Air Fund… a giving heart gathers and this I do and its the best.

One of the items on my bucket list is to go to New Zealand to visit my penfriend of almost 40 years. We have been penfriends since middle school, and have kept up with each other through teenage – young adult – parenthood – and now middle age years, and my life on numerous countries and continents. My penfriend is going to be a (young) grandma soon! And we still write to one another.

Thanks for the opportunity to win your generous prizes.

My husband and I have started on our bucket list and I must say it is quite long. After a real scare this past December with my heart we have decided we will not put things off any longer and hope to accomplish several things this year. One of the things we are going to do this summer is ride the motorcycle to the VietNam Wall. Have been there several times (but not on the bike) but this year we will be riding with about 25 guys that were in VietNam together. Should be a lot of fun.

Last year we took 2 weeks and drove cross-country, or at least from Ohio to Southern California, to visit with relatives. I’ve always wanted to do that. That’s as far as a bucket list. My thing right now to show my son how to “pay it forward”. It’s the little things that sometimes stops you and make you say that quick little prayer.

Congratulations, Becca on two years of sharing all your time and creativity with all of us. I truly look forward to each new post from you. I loved The Bucket List, and while I’m probably like many others who had things they wanted to do, this movie gave me a push to start actually writing things down. Many will have to wait til retirement (which is not what the list is supposed to be about), but I”m hoping some get done before and somecan wait until then. For now, we’ll put down the entry I’ve got of visit Alaska! It always looks so beautiful, and full of adventure. Living in California, it’s not THAT far, and I’ve managed to travel to further places in the world, so I’d like to scratch that one off my list. Back tomorrow with another entry. Thanks again for sharing all your wonderful ideas and talent with us.

Thank you Beca for a chance to win some blog candy. I truly enjoy your blog and appreciate all you share. I want to learn how to paint a landscape. Something larger than a card and use the big brushes like Bob Ross. I’ve already bought the grocery for a stranger that ended up not having his wallet and bought lunch for someone that looks like they’ve been dealt from a bad deck of cards. One thing I get a kick out of is when I’m at a fast food restaurant and I see a police car or EMS car one or two back from me, I tell the cashier I want to pay for their lunch. She gives me the total and when they get to the window, they don’t need to pay. They don’t know who I am because I’m already on my way. That’s exciting for me. It’s happened about 3 times this past year. Maybe that would give someone an idea. Thanks again.

Hi there – I am an Australian and I am not at all sure that I am allowed enter but here goes – and you can ignore me if you wish. I promise not to be offended. Number 1 on my Bucket list would be to take my husband on a return visit to England – he just loves this country so much and so do I.

I just LOVE your Blog.

Congratulations!!!! You are truly an inspiration to many. That is your Gift. #1 on my list is to walk again. I have had MS 37+ years and was recently diagnosed with arthritis. We all get it sooner or later but it’s a poor mix. I’ve walked until a couple of years ago so I’m lucky and God willing, I will again. I am always upbeat. And I’m a fighter. Your blog and all your creations are very important to me
and give me the inspiration I need.
Peace. Becky Johnson

What in inspirational Blog Candy! It really has made me look at what I can do, or want to do!
After enjoying your blog so much the last few months (ever since I found it), I have tried to “better” my card-making skills and find my own niche. Now, I have a better idea…just make people happy with my cards. So, number 1 on my Bucket List is to make someone happy or give them something to smile about with every card I make and send!
Congrats Becca on your 2nd anniversary for your blog, and we’re all really looking forward to many more years of inspiration from you!

I would dearly love to activate a business I am in by bringing in two business partners, because there is so much potential in this business, and the more people who join, the more people who are going to be free from the rat race and living from paycheck to paycheck. And the more people who will be exposed to our biggest product, which is doing miraculous things for the people who take it. This is not a commercial; I am just being honest with you. This is at the top of my list for now.

I have written off a couple things off my bucket list – learned to scrapbook and make all my own cards.

- biggest thing on my bucket list is to visit Italy where my uncle is buried. He died at age 23 right near the end of WWII and is buried in Italy. No one from our family has visited there. In fact, I just found out a couple of years ago where he was laid to rest. So, my wish is to go there to pay respects to a family member who died before I was born. Big problem with this happening is that I’ve had brain surgery and the doctors forbid me to fly, ever again. Someday, somehow, maybe?

Thank you Becca for your wonderful and very inspirational blog. I have enjoyed it so much and learned so much from you. Congratulations on your 2nd anniversary!
The first thing on my bucket list is to get more physically fit so that I can do the next several things on the list. We took a mission trip to Peru last summer and it was really hard to be at that altitude. I would love to be able to go on more of these trips.

A big thing on my bucket list is to find a new job/career direction now that I am essentially an empty nester. It was worth the sacrifice (financially) to be a SAHM with my kids as they were growing up. You can’t put a price on the benefits reaped from doing that (for them and for me). But now, I need to be able to pay the bills and build for our retirement.

Here goes: if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all. Sometimes we just speak and don’t think what we are saying and this can be very hurtful. Once said it is very hard to pull those words back. I plan to very carefully not say anything to anyone that I wouldn’t want said to me. nc

Hi Becca – I’ve mentioned this many times in my posts to you, your cards over the top gorgeous. I’m so thankful to you for posting and sharing your amazing talent with all of us. I read about your husband’s health issues and keep you all in my prayers. We all know that life can be challenging at times, but it is extremely gratifying to know and to love God and to have the comfort of having HIM in charge.

I never saw The Bucket List but I that would be something I would like to put on my list, along with this year being the year that I get “myself” back into shape after always giving and giving to everyone else. I lost myself and I’m working to get some weight off with a healthy diet and exercise (I refuse to succumb to any sort of surgical intervention for something I was responsible for. . .I need to do this on my own!).

Thank you for the chance to win the wonderful collection of blog candy! I agree with another fan that we should be giving you the blog candy! Congrats on your 2 nd year anniversary, I have enjoyed every minute of it, even if you do cause me to buy more Spellbinder dies! I can’t wait to open your e-mails, not only is your work exquisite but you are an amazing person as well. I haven’t thought much about a bucket list, but the one thing I have promised God I would do (and haven’t yet) is to study and learn the Apologetics so I can defend my faith and teach others about God’s love. Thanks for the gentle reminder. < Jeanne

Two years of blogging! Wonderful! I think I found you just about 18 months ago. I know we have all felt blessed. I started a bucket list about 3 years ago, and checked off one item last fall – taking the ‘circle tour’ around Lake Superior. We camped our way counter clock-wise for about 10 days. Wonderful. Item # 2 – to see Niagara Falls – both sides.

Thanks for letting us share in your celebration.

In that tone, my bucket list includes striving to light up someone else’s life every day in some way…a smile, a helping hand, a compliment. These can be small things or more elaborate offerings, but they mean so much to others. There is much we can share through simple words and actions and outreach.

Congratulations on the two year blog., and your work inspires me. Just to get all of my closets cleaned out is near the top of my list. Does not seem like such a big job, but spending so much time out of state for medical treatment for my husband has taken a toil on our house. We will be going again in a month for stem cell harvest. Just hope to catch up on a few simple things this year.

I want to spend as much time with my grandchildren as I possibly can and hope they remember me in a positive way when I’m gone. So I guess the #1 item on my list is for my grandchildren to remember me as “the crafty grandma” and the one who did fun projects with them.

Congrats Becca, you have an incredible talent and I am so thankful for your choice to share it!!

So many things on my bucket list but the first I’ll mention is to share the Word of the Lord with my family and see them come to accept Christ as their Saviour so that we may be together forever with Christ in Eternity!

thanks, Tracy in MIchigan!

It is hard to believe that you will really read this comment with so many others to read and then 7 days worth! But I really want to express that your idea of having your fan club list their really important goals shows what a special person you are. God has put each of us on the earth to glorify Him. This exercise will help many find that purpose. He has already given me many opportunities to accomplish so much but there is more to come. My highest goal is to write a Bible study on the women of the Bible, that is no 1!

Hi Becca!!!
OH how you’ve got me thinking!!! Gosh I think that I should actually start “crafting” and not just watching what everyone else is creating. I think you have inspired me enough to at least just open the pack of paper and adhesive and get cracking!!!
Thanks a million,

I have had fun reading through other people’s Bucket list items. It’s harder than you think to come up with a list, but even harder to make the wishes come true. I encourage everyone to take the first step, whether it’s saving for a trip, contacting your church or nursing home to see how they can help, or taking a meal to someone who needs cheering up. Don’t put your dreams off.

I would like to learn how to use my computer for more than internet and word processing. I’m going to put a date on my calendar to learn a skill such as scanning, so I don’t let the opportunity slip away.

Thanks for your wonderful, beautiful blog and the chance to really think about what our goals and dreams are.

Congratulations on two years of Blogging! You have blessed us all so much with your God given talents and your witness for Him. Thank you so very much. I look forward to your Blog each day and am always amazed by your beautiful creations. My bucket list is long. I love to make cards, but, like you, I enjoy all sorts of embellishments and layers. It’s not unusual for me to spend 5 or 6 hours creating one card. This year I ordered some ODBD stamps with the intent of making sets of cards for our church to sell to raise money for our mission trip to Jamaica. Unfortunately, I could not get enough done in time. Working more than full time and spending weekends with grandchildren leaves little time to create as I want to. This year, I will start earlier, try to think a bit more “basic” and get the cards done for our next mission trip.

It’s tough out there for many and so the young people in our church made up “Million Dollar Bags” filled with a bottle of water, hand warmers, sanitizer, peanut butter crackers, granola bar, dried fruit, 2-3 boxes of different eats, stapled the top of the bags…sold them for $3 each to church members…to be given to a homeless person instead of giving money. I bought two today and thought I would give them out next week. Well, on my way home, I saw a couple on a corner with a homeless sign…it was my pleasure to hand them the two bags and say “given with love”. What a thrill for me, and I got a thank you from them! My bucket list will include more of this for sure. Would, of course, like to finish some of my crafting ambitions. You Becca, are an inspiration…I know everyone feels the same way.
Hugs,

Yesterday I decided to start making some cards. I have started out small and just did some basic cards with nothing fancy. I have been accumulating some of the Spellbinders and will eventually fit those into my cards but that is for after I get the basics down.

You do such lovely work and congratulations on your 2 year Anniversary!

Becca, it is a very good reminder that we don’t have control in life, we are totally helpless when we are to come to encounter life’s most critical circumstances, such as illness. But one thing we can be certain that we have the assurance of eternal life when we believe that Jesus is Christ the Lord who has paid the price for the redemption, we are children of God through Jesus. I would like “to say more kind words to more people each and everyday” to be my first priority in my Bucket List, as I often lose patience too easily, although I know very well that kind words make other cheer up over and over again, as they are well appreciated and remembered, and they will be re-winded and re-winded.

Thank you Becca for giving so much of yourself to help all of us. I’ve learned many things from watching your video tutorials. I’m a visual learner…so I love when you make a video…I’m 76 so pictures work best for me.. I loved your medallian series and got the punch and did it I watched your tutorial several times to be able to do it.

I don’t have a list so to speak but I would love to travel more. I would love to go to the Holy Lands if my health permits…and other special places like Lourdes and a place in Turkey that has strong spiritual history.

Thank you for this opportunity to share.

Congratulations on your 2nd anniversary! You inspire all of us.

I would like to set up a fund that will pay for food, vaccinations, routine care and, especially, emergenciy care for pets, when the pet’s “parents” can’t afford to pay because they’ve lost jobs, are experiencing hard times for other reasons (maybe medical), or the cost is more than they can afford. I think it’s tragic for everyone when people have to give up or lose a member of their family because they can’t afford to keep them anymore or pay the veterinarian.

My dream is to change the laws to help protect innocent children against pedophiles. Children are our future, and what kind of future do they have after being molested. If it took me walking across the US in the rain and snow to get peoples signatures to pass tougher laws then I would. Abused children need to know that we care.
Becca, I’m sorry if these post is too deep. I enjoy looking at your blog everyday. You are very talented, thanks for all the projects you post. Keep up the good work. Your sister, in Christ Catherine.

First off…let me say thank you Becca for sharing your creativity and inspiring me to reach higher and higher in my crafting! I have learned so many awesome techniques from your blog and love the tutorials! I have already crossed off #1 on my bucket list…so far in a year I have lost 64.4 lbs. and am determined to keep it off! The next thing on my bucket list is to be financially able to bless those in great need…I would love to be standing in the line at the grocery and when the person in front of me gets ready to pay for their groceries…I tell them…never mind..I will get them for you…just pass it on! That would bless The Lord and bless me as well…you just never know where that person is in life and what a blessing you could be to them!

I think that you have inspired most all your readers to now start their own Bucket List, something that I plan to start doing very soon. Something that I have always said that I wanted to do is help people in need. I actually did that yesterday when I invited my 21-year-old niece over to spend the day with me. Her parents are divorced, they are both alcoholics and one of them is also a drug abuser, she has one brother that lives too far away to visit frequently and she is a very slow learner. I will definitely make more time for her and be available when she needs someone to confide in.
