I love fun cards. They just seem so much more cheerful to put into the mail. And these cows in the OVER THE MOON stamp set, fit the bill. I have to give credit to Corinne Oosterhoff, a fellow Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator in Denmark. She shared a card on a Facebook page for Stampin’ Up Demonstrators and… Continue reading I’m Over the Moon About These Cows!
My mother-in-law, who passed away in 2015 from Alzheimer’s Disease, loved flowers. She could make anything grow, even flowers and plants that she would give to me and I would seemingly kill, she would bring them back to life. She had a beautiful yard full of flowers...that included a HUGE magnolia tree. June 6th… Continue reading Good Morning Magnolia!
So my Red, White and Blue week last week didn’t work out as I expected. I was getting ready to travel.....19 hour airplane trip....and I’ll be gone almost a month. I had so many things to do and even though I thought I could fit everything in....it just didn’t happen. So I’m going to save… Continue reading Retiring Favorite – En Route

Hello....welcome to Monotone Monday! Or maybe I should have named this post I’ve Got the Monday Blues. Either way, the card I’m going to share today was a little happy accident...and it started with blue branches. I was actually making another one of these cards for a friend. You can read about it in this… Continue reading Monotone Monday – Petals & More
There are so many good and fun stamp sets that are retiring on June 3rd. But just because they are retiring from the catalog, doesn’t mean that they can’t be used to make beautiful cards. Petal Palette is another one of my first purchases....and there is so much goodness in this stamp set that it comes… Continue reading Retiring Favorites – Petal Palette
Most everything I post is cards, cards and more cards with a few treat boxes & bags thrown in. But every once in a while, I get asked to do “make something” for an event. My niece is pregnant and of course there was a baby shower. The theme of the shower was “Children’s Books”.… Continue reading Stamping is not just for cards
It’s April 15th and time to think about the next few months and all the exciting things that will be happening in my Stampin’ Up! world. It’s going to be busy!! Two of Stampin’ Up’s catalogs are nearing the end....This is sad because lots of stamp sets, embellishments, papers and ribbons will be retiring on… Continue reading Out with the Old….In with the New
I saw this definition of Spring the other day....SPRING: A lovely reminder of how beautiful change can be. So while this definiation is more about flowers and plants blooming back to life after a long winter, it also applies to other parts of our lives. Change can be good especially when it brings new and… Continue reading Still Blooming with Happiness
