Just wanted to share a simple card i made using the stamp set "Hooray for You!

Our granddaughter wanted a birthday card, pink and lavendar with balloons, so I thought this was the perfect solution ;-)

She also loves bling so I colored some gems with a pink SU marker and addes those, too.

I ran a piece of WW cardstock through the Stampin' Cut and Emboss machine using the largest Ornate Layers die.

Then, I stamped the balloon with Magenta Madness onto the WW card stock and adhered it to a piece of 8 1/2 x 4 1/4 Magenta Madness card stock that I had folded in half.

I ran another piece of WW cardstock through the Embossing machine using the same die for the inside of the card to write my sentiment.

She hasn't received it yet, should be getting it today or Monday.  I can't wait to hear what she thinks.

She is Special needs and LOVES getting cards and her birthday is one of her favorite times of the year, along with every other holiday :-)

Haven't been stamping much these past few months, I did do a Card of the Month in September for those that ordered and a few cards here and there but then started not feeling quite myself around the second week of September and finally hubby made me go to the Dr.   She saw me and sent us directly to the ER. They kept me for a few hours and scheduled me to have a stent put in..... but  couldn't because it was too big of a blockage...so they sent me home with meds.

Long story short, I ended up in the ER, again, about a week later when my BP went really low and they put me in the  hospital for 3 days and told me that I have Cardiac artery disease and that they cannot put a stent in to relieve the symptoms.  So, I am on quite a few meds and haven't had much energy to do much of anything.

The Cardiac Dr. put me on a whole new way of eating and eventually, I will have cardiac rehab......but, my main goal is to get back to feeling up to stamping again.

I am going to try and make a card a week to start with and share, either here or on my Facebook group.

We shall see!!

Actually, my goal is to have classes again....but that's not viable, right now, with all that's going on in the world....except if I can learn to do it on Facebook or You Tube......so that's a future goal.

If you read this far....thanks for still reading my posts. 

I will not promise to post every week.....but as long as one person is reading my blog.....I'll try to post now and then.


Have a great day.....and keep looking on the bright side!!!

Hopefully, next year will be a lot better.


Hugs,

Char

Hello AUGUST and many fun things coming!!


Wow, it's August!!!  I really can't believe we are still having to social distance.  It's been 5 months.  But, on the bright side, more time to play in my stamp room.

I have not been able to have any classes in my home...and YES, we are now living in a house again!!!  More on that later.  I almost have my stamp room all organized  :-)  We had a lot of other things to get done before I could get to the craft room.

About a month ago, I bought two Kallax shelf units from IKEA (one like the one below) and another one that was half as tall.
KALLAX shelf unit white 57 7/8 " 15 3/8 " 57 7/8 " 29 lb


And, on Thursday, I got a desk with two sets of drawers.  LOVE IT!!!!  Just did get the desk unit set up last night and haven't even sat down to stamp yet, but it won't be long.  I didn't buy the center pole.  I knew that would drive me crazy.

LINNMON / ALEX table white 78 3/4 " 23 5/8 " 29 1/8 "

What I really wanted to remind you about was that if you placed an order with SU in the month of July, you would have been e-mailed Bonus Codes.  Hang onto those Codes and use them when you order in August!!  Each coupon is worth $5.  And, yes, you can use all of them in the same order.

Some other great things are about to happen.  Our Holiday catalog or what they call the August-December Mini Catalog is going live in September!!!   So many exciting things in the Mini Catalog. 

07.01.20_TH_AD_CATALOG_US
And, a new ordering system is rolling out soon.  We've been assured that it's easier to navigate and you will love it.  I'm excited to see it, myself.

There are still some things on back order.  It's the way things are going, I know, in a lot of different industries.  One thing comes to mind is the In Color reinkers and some other items. 

I have been having fun with the Forever Fern Bundle!!!  I just sent out my customers that ordered from me, a Card Buffet including directions for three cards.  They LOVE that set.

Here is one I made using that set that wasn't a part of the Card Buffet.

It's using the technique,Split Card stamping

I'll be posting some of the other cards that I made using that set in a few days.

Hope everyone is staying safe and crafting away.

Hi

I just wanted to update you on why I haven't been posting on my blog for months!!   We got moved into a rental house, in January, and are giving up RVing and we have been super, super busy getting everything cleaned and fixed up and getting my stamp room set up.

I am back to stamping, again and have managed, with the help of my customers, to stay active, with Stampin' UP!,  the last 3 years while we were on the road.

I have started up my Card Buffet, once again.  For those that order through my website, in any given month, they will automatically be sent the instructions for those cards along with photos, via e-mail, for that month's Card Buffet.

This is the first month, for my Card Buffets, and it's a really great time to shop......as in July through August 2nd, for every $50 you spend, before tax and shipping.....you will get a $5 coupon delivered to your e-mail (make sure you DO have your e-mail set up, if you don't already, to receive these from SU).   Make  sure you keep the coupons  safe or write down the coupon code....and, Then, in August, you can redeem those coupons (by typing in the coupon codes) when you place an order.

This month, for my Card Buffet, I am featuring the "Forever Fern" Bundle and have instructions for 3 cards to share with you, via e-mail, when you place any order through me through the month of July.

FOREVER FERN BUNDLE (ENGLISH)

I can't seem to quit making cards using this Bundle.   So many possibilities.
Next month, will be an entirely new stamp set/bundle.  So stay tuned.

Have a great day!!!

Making a difference during Covid 19 SENTIMENTS


COVID-19 Giveback Social Shareable

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to give you a heads up that SU has created some really cool sentiments to add to your cards that you are sending out during this time. 

I have purchased my set and I can tell you that there is something for everyone in this PDF. 

The following was on the order page.  I cannot share the PDF.....as this is a way for us to make a difference by each of us purchasing these sentiments and all of the proceeds go to making a difference.

This digital stamp set is packed with both lighthearted and thoughtful sentiments and imagery relevant to the unique COVID-19 and social distancing situation we are currently in. You can use the download in your cardmaking and papercrafting projects. Simply print the imagery on cardstock and cut it out using Stampin’ Up!’s Paper Trimmer, punches, or dies. Since we are physically distanced from each other, now is a perfect time to share sunshine with our friends and family by sending cards!
As part of Stampin’ Up!’s Making a Difference program, 100% of the Share Sunshine PDF Download proceeds will go to COVID-19 efforts through these organizations:
  • The World Health Organization’s COVID-Solidarity Response Fund
  • United Way Worldwide’s COVID-19 Community Response and Recovery Fund
Help us make a difference today!
Here is the link where you can purchase your own set.  There are 15 pages and the cost is just $12.  You will then be able to print off the images, over and over, once you have saved them to your computer, to make even more cards.
Here is the link to go to purchase them https://covid19.stampinup.com/products/giving-back-us-ca
I don't receive any commission from the sales of these sentiments.....and SU donates all the profits to two different organizations.  It's our way of just doing what we can.

ENJOY!!!!  And, when you do purchase the sets....be sure to tell others.

Thanks!!!

Char

In the Saddle again!!!! Thank YOU!!!

Hi Everyone,

Daisy | plant | Britannica

Well, just to catch you up on what's been going on in our lives,in a nutshell,....basically we ended our RV travels 'officially' on January 31st.



A lot went into this decision and I won't share all the details but it was extremely hard for me to keep up with my Stampin' UP! business and even to keep up my quarterly minimums while we were travelling and working.

BUT, without some of you even knowing what a struggle it was, just as a quarter came to a close one or two of you would send in an order and I'd be good for another quarter.

At first, I didn't think much of it.....but when this went on for 3 years, almost, I KNEW I had to do something..  You never knew how close I was to having to give it all up but somehow, just about the time I thought I would have to give it up......here came an order from one of you.  YOU KNOWWHO YOU ARE!!!  :-) And, I wanted to just say THANK YOU so much for your support!!!
You are the ones that kept me going when I just couldn't order myself because of one thing or another.

We had some health issues for awhile, then our precious Annie became ill and we just had to stay focused on keeping her well. Then, my husband had a health scare and finally, I did.....and so, we finally made the decision to just sit for awhile and decide what to do.

That is when we were given an opportunity to rent a house here in WA state.  The day was Dec. 7th.   We jumped on the chance and were so excited.  Not an hour later,  our Annie had to be rushed to the Vet....and she had to  'leave us'.  My heart was broken and still is.



Some of you that know me, personally, and know that my Annie was the inspiration for my blog name and that I was super close to her.

BUT, the good news out of all of this is that.....because you, the customers that kept ordering from me, I was able to stay active and I will NOT forget that.

So, I am back in the 'saddle' again.  Who knows where this journey will lead.  If it leads nowhere, that is ok!!!  But, it's just so wonderful to be in a house and able to create once again.

And, as soon as I have my craft room set up (remember, I sold everything or gave it away) I can stamp again (which should be next week).

I'll be sharing photos of the progress I have made in that room.  It's nothing like the room I had, but after having NO ROOM.....I'm so excited.

AND, I'll be starting up my Card Buffet once again.  More on that later.

Just wanted to say thank you!!!  And, to let you know you can expect posts more often, now.

BIG HUGS!!!!!

Char
