Daisy Thank You

As I write this post I have daisies on my mind.  My sister, Tina, had back surgery 2 1/2 weeks ago so her stamping and classes are limited right now.  She planned a class using the Daisy Suite and her husband, Dave, was teaching the class Tuesday night.  Dave is quite a character so I’m sure the ladies at the class had a great time and were well entertained.  I can’t wait to hear all about it.

This is a card I made for my Summer Splash Class earlier in the month.  I think it’s a great card to send to say Thank You for almost anything.  The card features the Daisy Delight stamp set, Daisy Punch, Delightful Daisy designer paper, Clear Faceted Gems and the fabulous Calpyso Coral Ombre Ribbon.  This ribbon is “the bomb”, seriously.

Life is a Beautiful Thing

This past weekend we had a family reunion on my dad’s side of the family.  Sometimes we dread going to these “mandatory” events but I love going to them every year.  Life is so busy we don’t get together with extended family except this one time a year.  I grew up playing with these cousins — now we all have our own kids and most even have grandkids now but it still always reminds me of those long gone times — remember when…..

Our reunion is held on my parents’ property which is part of my grandpa’s old farm land.  Many of us camp there for the weekend sitting in lawn chairs around the campfire, so this card reminded me of my fun weekend.

I used the Color Theory designer paper for the background.  I cut a great Adirondack chair using the Seasonal Layers thinlits and stamped the words — Life is a Beautiful Thing and the flowers from the Colorful Seasons stamp set.

Today is the Eclipse!!!

Are you ready for the Eclipse today?

Solar Eclipse
Everyone is talking about it — remember though DON’T look right at the sun.  I remember in grade school we used a paper plate (back when they were paper) and poked a hole in it — I can’t remember how we actually used that to see but I remember we did it (I think that’s called old age).  I’ll be inside working so let’s see if I even notice it.

Because today is a rare occasion I thought we would celebrate with a FREE goodie.  How do you get this FREE goodie?  All you have to do is place a $35 order TODAY (August 21, 2017).  That’s right place a $35 order today only and I’ll send you a package of the NEW Black Rhinestones FREE (value $5)!!!  These wonderful Black Rhinestones will be in the Holiday Catalog beginning September 1st — I will order the right away and send them to you as soon as I receive them.

Let’s celebrate the Eclipse together!!!
