All good things must come to an end...

Well friends...the time has come for me to give up my stamping business. I've had so much fun and met so many great people! I never dreamed I'd still be with Stampin' Up this long when I signed up 6 years ago. I'd never stamped anything and certainly never considered becoming a demonstrator!!!

The boys' activities are taking more and more of my time which makes it difficult for me to keep up with projects, trends, and deadlines with Stampin' Up. I also have some other things that I really need to focus my attention on.

I hope to have more time to create things for the fun of creating. I will try to post those things here to give you ideas that you can use. I also want to focus on writing the book about raising boys that I've started with my friend.

I will still be able to process orders for you through July. I will also keep my website up so that you can place online orders until I'm officially done.

Super Cute Project




This little (it's only about 2"x3") envelope was made using our envelope die with The Big Shot. It was so easy to make! You just crank it through the big shot and glue it together! This would make plain wrapped gift extra special!!

March Stamp Camp

We had a great time Saturday at the stamp camp. I wish all of you could have joined us!! Here are the projects we made. We made 2 of the cards and decorated our envelopes to match.



This little gift bag was made using one of our new box/bag dies with the Big Shot. The paper is Good Morning Sunshine Designer Paper.


This cute box is made from 1 sheet of cardstock and then the top and bottom pieces are die cut with the top note die using the big shot. Very easy but very cute. It sort of reminds me of a jewelry box or a chocolate box!



This frame is made from 2 blank coasters (ordered online) covered with the Urban Garden Designer Paper. We set the grommets using the crop-o-dile. These are a great little gift item.


We made 2 cards w/matching envelopes using the Priceless stamp set and the Sale-a-Bration designer paper. It was fun to see what different combinations we could come up with using the same basic pieces.

Just one more week of Sale-a-Bration. Let me know if you need anything!!!
