Old Meets New

The new annual catalogue is live, and we are all excited to play with the new products, but today I wanted to share some love with some items that have carried over from last season. So old meets new, and that is one of the fantstic things about all the Stampin’ Up! products.

Missing My Boy

My son turned 30 yesterday. Yikes!! He hasn’t been a boy for a while, he is a man, but as a Mother, he is my first born, so he will always be my boy. I’m just glad I made the decision when I had kids that since they would be getting older, I no longer need to!!!!

Good Friends

A good friend is truly a gift. I have a number of really good friends, and I am grateful for each and every one of them. They enrich my life, make the tough times easier, and the good times fantastic. I am simply thankful for them.

Summertime

In the last week or so, we have gone from late winter chilly weather, to mid-summer hot. It has been a crazy turnaround in temperature. Today it was 32 degrees!! The heat has made all the leaves burst open, and more flowers are blooming every day. I couldn’t help but make a summertime card for my post today.

Healing Vibes

Last night a group of us got together to Craft and Chatter. It was great fun to get together apart, using Zoom. With our new physical distancing in place it is really nice to stay connected with other crafters, and this was a great way to do it.

Roses, Roses, Roses

One of my newest loves is the To A Wild Rose stamp set. I first posted a card using the set recently, (see that post here) and have wanted to play with it some more ever since, so today is the day.

Spring Butterflies

When I’m making cards to send to customers, I sometimes stamp in bulk - many cards that are the same or very similar, and sometimes I create one of a kind cards. This was a one of a kind, although I know a number of my customers that really like butterflies, so maybe I should have made several.

More From the Covid-19 Giveback Stamp Set

Hello Sunshine

The weather has been rather cold here recently, but thankfully most days have been bright and sunny. Sara Douglass our Stampin’ Up! CEO started to #sharesunshine with everyone as a way of cheering people up during Covid-19. My card for today is bright and sunny, and one the ways I am working to #sharesunshine.
