Our Holiday Catalog starts tomorrow! Can you believe we are already eight months into the year? I don't know where the year has gone, but here we are getting ready for another school year and the Holidays are quickly approaching. I have my fingers crossed that Holiday Season 2021 is going to be better than Holiday Season 2020 (thanks, Covid). Every year, when I receive the Holiday Catalog, I debate over and over what to make first. I'm dying … [Read more...] about Starting Tomorrow

Thoughtful Blooms
Two of my favorite items from the Sale-A-Bration Catalog have been the Thoughtful Blooms stamp and matching Bloom Punch. The Thoughtful Blooms stamp set is free with a $50 (pre-tax/shipping) order and the Bloom Punch is free with a $100 (pre-tax/shipping) order. The punch is on the pricier side, considering how much you have to spend to get it, but I have thoroughly enjoyed using it. And it makes cards like this one so much easier to … [Read more...] about Thoughtful Blooms
Stuck On Poppies
Last week, I started playing with all the different stuff in the Painted Poppies Suite and I just couldn't stop myself. I have tons of ideas to share using these products. I'm starting with a quick and easy card for you today. This card makes great use of the fabulous pattern paper in the pack. I used the sheet that has a row of flowers across the bottom and the top of the sheet. This sheet is meant to be cut into sections like this to cover … [Read more...] about Stuck On Poppies

Love You Lots
I am so excited that I get to see some crafty friends tomorrow. I will be at the Just Crop Retreat in Fullerton and I am so looking forward to seeing all the ladies. I love sharing make and takes with them and all the fun new products every time a new Stampin Up Catalog comes out. Sale-A-Bration is also one the best times of the year because of the freebies you earn with a qualifying purchase. This Valentine's Treat Box is one of my make … [Read more...] about Love You Lots
Mix It Up
On Friday I mentioned that I had a plumbing leak. I was seriously hoping it was a minor repair, but for the amount of water in my kitchen, hallway, and bathroom, I was sort of prepared that this wasn't going to be a quickie fix. Anyway, the plumber came out Friday and one of his comments was "I've never seen anything like this". Uh-oh. Not a good sign. After four+ hours, he still couldn't determine exactly where the leak was originating and left … [Read more...] about Mix It Up
Seriously The Best
I know you're probably still knee-deep in packing up the Holiday decor and probably don't have a lot of crafting time right now so I want to show you one of the fabulous kits in the new Catalog. I love kits because they come together so quickly. This is the Seriously The Best Project Kit and it uses the Seriously The Best coordinating stamp set. The only things I added to the kit were the stamp pads in Terracotta Tile and Pretty Peacock … [Read more...] about Seriously The Best
