Stampin Up recently held their very first Virtual Album Retreat. This was a scrapbook retreat held online via video over three days. The videos were live and you could craft along with the presenters. I'm going to share a couple of the pages. The projects are two page spreads for each month of the year.

Working Weekend
I have the best job. One of my favorite parts of being a Stampin Up demonstrator is meeting people. I work anywhere from 15-20 craft retreats per year. I know, it's a lot of retreats.

I have lots of Stampin Up kits for sale plus a variety of kits … [Read more...] about Working Weekend

I love quick and simple cards like this. Something like this means I … [Read more...] about Happy Day

Birthday and thank you cards are probably the two most popular cards that I make. It is so handy to have a stack of birthday cards ready to go when you need them. Periodically, I'll make a batch of quick and easy cards just so I have them in my stash ready to go. Today I'm using the Birthday Celebration Bundle for a quick pack of cards. This style is very simple and easy to replicate. I used more feminine paper here, but you could easily … [Read more...] about Make A Wish
