Summertime!

Hello Everybody!

Life has been cra....zy lately, summertime fun, traveling, visiting, yard work, ferrying the kids around, you know how it is! Anyway, I just put together my calendar for August and will be posting LOTS of fun things so I hope we can get together and get our fingers inky again soon!

Here's a little peek at what I've been doing the past few weeks though, yesterday the ladies at our local LDS church were doing Christmas in July and I took some fabric flowers for us to make, too much fun! I enjoyed hanging out with old and new friends.
On Monday we had our BLISS demonstrator group meeting, Tammy and Teresa have just got back from convention and they had a BLAST. The rest of us were GREEN with envy, especially when they pulled out hundreds (literally HUNDREDS) of swaps and samples... oh my word! They made some really cool things, entered lots of the optional swaps, got free stamp sets and new toys that I hadn't seen - we had a great time rummaging through their boxes and bags and I took a couple of pictures of my favorites. I couldn't go to Convention this year :-( but I am planning on attending Leadership for the first time in January. It's in Nashville, Tennessee so that's what I'm working towards now... Here's a picture of Linda who is a returning demonstrator to our group, she needed a little sabbatical to make this little cutie! Adrian. Isn't he adorable?

Well, I be sending out my August schedule today, so watch out for my email and I hope to see you soon! Have a great week,

Brenda

Thank You!

I had another amazing year with Stampin' Up! and I just got the official letter to tell me I'd earned another cruise (can you believe it?! I can't!) We're going to Alaska next May. I have never been there and so this is a real dream of ours. I am so grateful to my lovely customers and friends for helping me achieve this. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!


Stamp club today. We learning all about wheels. I've been terrible at posting haven't I? I'm going to try and get a little more regular - we'll see how that goes! Here's a picture for you. I made these little "thank you's" for the customers who placed orders while I was away... I used the Pedaling Past set from the mini and made up little 3"x 3" note cards. Easy and quick. I used the new color Marina Mist on the front right set, I'm loving it!
Have a great week, Brenda
