A fellow blogger friend of mine Archiving Angel gave me the Sunshine Award! I am very honored that you chose little ole me and my blog for this award! I really am humbled and very encouraged by all of your uplifting comments! You are so sweet! I'm fairly new to the world of scrapbook blogging, but I really enjoy hearing from new people, receiving comments, and learning from all of the talent out there in blog land!!!

Now I must follow the award rules which are:
1. Post the award on my blog.
2. Mention the blogger who tagged me.
3. Give the prize to 5 friends.
4. Post on my blog the link to their blogs.
5. Announce everyone on their blog.
