Last Sunday I attended my very first MeetUp. Have you heard of these? If you look them up online, MeetUps are groups of people that share a common interest and get together to partake in that activity. There’s all sorts of MeetUp groups – hiking, biking, crafting, and lots more. It’s such an awesome way to meet people who share a common interest. This past Sunday’s Meet Up was for a group of people that decorate their planners. I know you’re … [Read more...] about Grateful for Friends
Cards
You’re Lovely
Yes, you really are! But only for a limited time! Okay, not really. You're lovely all the time! But this You're So Lovely stamp set is retiring at the end of the month. Do you have yours yet? If not, better get it ordered right away. Only a couple items on this card will be continued after June 1st: the gold ribbon, gold doilies, white card stock, green ink, and the pearls. Everything else is going. The white doilies are quite a bit … [Read more...] about You’re Lovely
Five Minute Friday
Did you know there’s only little more than two weeks left of May? Yikes! Where does the time go? The end of the school year is always really busy for us: wrapping up our soccer and track seasons, end of year school activities, team award banquets for both school and extracurricular teams, awards nights for schools, and the list goes on. Sometimes, the only way I can get cards made is if I don't set my sights too high. Geeze, that sounds bad. What … [Read more...] about Five Minute Friday
The Best Mother’s Day Ever
Just in case you didn't know, yesterday was Mother's Day. We celebrated with my mom Saturday evening and my hubby spent the previous Saturday with his mother. Yesterday, we got to do something I've been dying to do since I first heard it they were building it about two years ago. We went to Universal Studios to see the Wizarding World of Harry Potter! Oh my goodness! Universal did a pretty good job recreating Hogsmeade and Hogwarts. It … [Read more...] about The Best Mother’s Day Ever
Five Minute Friday – A Little Something for Mom
Still trying to come up a gift idea for your mom? One thing that doesn’t change is that mother’s appreciate the gift of time. Why? Because most mothers have learned how to juggle time commitments and therefore understand exactly how precious time is. How do you give the gift of time? You can either spend time together or take time to make something for her. My mom still likes getting handmade gifts from us. I know she appreciates the time we … [Read more...] about Five Minute Friday – A Little Something for Mom
I’m going to miss you!
Stampin Up does this to me every year. You think I'd learn by now. Every year they retire In Colors that I have fallen in love with. And now there's only one more month to get the 2014-16 In Colors. I'm really going to miss this group of colors. I'm not sure which I'm going to miss more: Hello Honey or Blackberry Bliss. Or Mellow Moss. Or Lost Lagoon. Or Tangelo Twist. And to top it off, we're losing some really cool stamp sets and accessories … [Read more...] about I’m going to miss you!
Five Minute Fri-yay!
This past Wednesday night, we had our monthly Downline Meeting. I love getting together with these ladies every month. We have the best time together! This was a fun meeting! We shared all the information that we got at OnStage in Salt Lake City and showed off some new goodies as well. If you attended OnStage, you were able to order some new products that won't be available until 6/1 to customers or 5/3 to other demonstrators. This was one of the … [Read more...] about Five Minute Fri-yay!
Hello and Goodbye!
For the next couple weeks, I'll be sharing some of my favorite products that are retiring along with something brand new! This week is the Watercolor Thank You stamp set and Sketched Dots Bags. I'm seriously going to miss both of those items. I had several packages of the Bags and now I'm just about out. I love how they are the perfect size for a couple treats or something slightly larger than your standard "fun size" chocolates. I filled … [Read more...] about Hello and Goodbye!
