This past weekend was our Girls Get Away Weekend. What a fantastic time spent with wonderful women. We crafted, chatted, ate great food, laughed, supported and encouraged each other and had an amazing time together.
We made a side step card using the Forever Blossoms stamp set, and I had some alternate projects using the same supplies. Here is one of the alternate cards.
My last post had a card with one of the cute little guys from The Gang’s All Meer. Today I have a whole group of them, and they are ready to Sale-a-Brate!!! These little guys are so adorable with their little smiles and cute party hats.

It’s a new year and a new decade! Welcome to 2020, it is going to be a great year. We kick it all off with a new mini catalogue that goes live on January 3, and Sale-a-Bration (SAB) starts then too. The new catalogue is filled with lots of great stamp sets, dies, papers, embellishments, kits and everything you need for beautiful paper crafting. The best part about this time of year though, is Sale-a-Bration. For every $60 you spend on anything at all from the new mini, or the annual catalogue, you can select a FREE item from the SAB brochure. It has everything from cute to beautiful, and lots in between! I thought we would start with cute.

It is New Year’s Eve, and that often means reminiscing about the past year, and looking forward and planning for the new year to come. I know not too many people send New Year’s cards, but one year I just couldn’t get Christmas cards sent, so instead I sent New Year’s cards. It was a great way to kick off the new year, and wish all my friends and family the very best for the coming year.

Deck the halls with boughs of holly. And maybe decorate a card with holly while you are at it!! I love the holly image in the Christmas Gleaming stamp set. Actually I love the whole stamp set, and when you combine it with the coordinating dies and the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper, it is a real winner.

How true is this? Christmas often makes us think of family and friends, perhaps ones we haven’t seen for a while. These thoughts usually also bring to mind happy memories and times we have shared with the special people in our lives.
