My Retirement Card & Goodbye AAA Cards

It's time. My husband is retiring and we are off to see the world and thoroughly enjoy our grandchildren. 
I haven't been able to craft for weeks. We found a bayside vacation condo and we are trying to close. 
Also spending time preparing wills and important life papers. Crazy changes for me and Steve. 
But it's all good stuff!


This is my last card for AAA Cards CAS Challenges. I founded AAA last year and
it's been an incredible ride! It started as a cute and new card challenge to express
the Clean & Simple crafting theme and went become a well known
spot to share and create!

Thank you all for the fun and sharing, the creativity and laughs. I hope to return to art in a few months, but my path will be watercolor painting and I will be able to fulfill a lifetime dream.

Big smiles and hugs, thanks for everything.......bye bye.

  7. WOW! While I am shocked you are giving up stamping, your travel plans sound exciting! I hope you have many fun experiences in your future, and lots of fun with the grand Littles. I also was pleased to see you passed on AAA rather then closing it. You worked hard to get it where it is! I do look forward to your water colors - I hope you post them on this blog for us to see them [when you get back into it] Enjoy Life~
