Going…Going…Gonna’ miss it if you don’t act now! 🙂 As we prepare for the release of the 2013-2014 Annual Catalog on Friday and prepare to say goodbye to several stamp sets in the 2012-2013 Annual Catalog and 2013 Spring Catalog, I think it’s appropriate to take a step back and share some projects from the past year that feature products that are soon to be retired. I’ll be sharing those with you intermittently throughout the rest…
I’ve been telling you about my product shares for the past several weeks (if you want to know more, please click here). I’ve also told you about my Designer Series Paper Swatch Books, but I haven’t really shown you much. I ran the particulars by Stampin’ Up! Compliance and got approval to show you the books I’ve already made. If you like what you see, you can order them today. Of course, I can’t order…
We all know that Stampin’ Up!’s 2013-2014 Annual Catalog goes live at noon MDT on Friday, right? You’ve studied the catalog. You’ve made your wish list.

Going…Going…Doggone it! You missed it! Don’t be that person. As we get ready for the release of the 2013-2014 Annual Catalog on Friday and prepare to say goodbye to several stamp sets in the 2012-2013 Annual Catalog and 2013 Spring Catalog, I think it’s appropriate to take a step back and share some projects from the past year that feature products that are soon to be retired.

A wise man once said, “When life gives you punch-outs, make a polka dot stamp.” OK, so maybe that’s not a real saying – but it should be – and I am the person who said it. While the sentiment of this card is inked by a beautifully-designed rubber stamp, the rest of the stamped images are created with other items and leftovers. Let me explain. First, here’s my card: Tips, Tricks and Reminders: Making…
When I participate in sketch challenges, I love to play around with the shapes and stamps and colors until I find the combination that best matches the sketch. The moment I saw this week’s sketch from The Paper Players, I knew exactly which set I would be using and how I would be using it. I was ready! Moments after seeing it, I had my card drawn out. Shortly after, I made this card: And here’s LeAnne Pugliese’s wonderful sketch that inspired my card: Tips,…
Back in January, you helped me to celebrate Jude and Jonas’ birthday, and in February you helped me celebrate Janelle’s. Today, it’s Jarah’s turn to soak up the birthday wishes. Jarah is the older sister of Jude and Jonas and Janelle’s daughter. Jarah is such a girly-girl. Since she was able to walk, Jarah has loved to dress up in princess costumes and dance around the room. She’s a smart cookie, that one. Here’s my…
Thank you so much for all the positive feedback on my uber-simple cat card yesterday (you can see it here if you missed it). I received a lot of wonderful emails and blog comments. Bandit has been exhausted from all the phone calls from newspapers and reporters – maybe the last part is untrue, but Bandit was sleeping a lot yesterday afternoon. Anyhow, I promised myself I wasn’t going to go ga-ga for all my new Stampin’ Up!…
A gorgeous Maine Coon cat named Bandit lives in my house with me. He’s a bit of a jerk (likes to pounce from under the bed, doesn’t like me to sleep at night, requests food daily), but I love him all the same. I often sing him a little song to remind him that he’s a cat. It goes something like this. [clears throat] “B-an-dit, you are a cat.” If you’ve been to my house,…
