March 16, 2009

Greetings from sunny Florida!! We left last Wednesday for our much needed vacation.  When we left home it was 18 degrees, snowing with 60 MPH and now I am in Cape Coral where it was in the 80's.  I spent the day poolside.  I feel so blessed.  I took a couple of pictures tonight to share with you.  It was a gorgeous sunset.  For those of you still in the cold I thought you might like to see it.Isn't it beautiful.  God certainly does good work! I also took a picture of a card that we will part of one of my classes which will start the first part of April.  I had hope to get them on my calendar before I left but my daughter was home way more than she was at her program so I didn't get as much done as I had hoped.  Please check the very end of March.  I doubt that I will get another post until I get home.  But you never know.  Enjoy St. Patty's Day and the rest of the month.  Here is the card: 
Happy Stamping!!

Hi Everyone,

I have been so, so remiss! It has been over a month since I've posted. February has been a very uncreative month for me. I just got the winter blahs I guess. But March is starting off with a real bang and quite creatively! This past Monday and I went to our local Catholic School, Our Lady of the Lakes and taught with the Art Teacher all day. The kids all made St Patrick's Day bag toppers. They did a great job and really enjoyed themselves. Here is a photo of the kindergarten class proudly displaying their projects! They did such a good job, I really enjoyed meeting all the students.

Aren't they cute. The school goes to 8th grade. All the children were really a joy. I hope I will be going back one day.

I attended a local stamping day today. We meet once a month at a local restraunt. We do a card exchange. The card I took today was stamped with one of Stampin Up's free Sale-a-bration sets. All products used for this gate fold card are StampinUp. I did the same card but in two different colors. Here are the cards:


Stampin Up has some great offers right now. If you place a $50 order during Sale-a-bration you get a stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration catalog free. In addition to that, if you place a $50 order on line through my website or the link on my blog, you will get a free Spring/Summer catalog in addition to the free stamp set. We have some wonderful new products. I'm going to be featuring many of these products here as well as many of our wonderful stamp sets. But before I begin that I am leaving next week on my first vacation in over 4 years. My wonderful husband of 35 years and I are going on a 2 week vacation. My great brother and his wife are taking our daughter, our terrific neighbors are taking our two dogs and we are off to Florida. I don't promise to do any other posts before we go (although I'll try) but when we get back at the end of the month I will posting regularly as well as beginning classes. Please check my calendar as I will be posting my class schedule for April before we go. Thanks for your patience - I promise my website and this blog will get better come April.
Happy Stamping
