It is before June 2nd, but not by much!!


My daughter-in-law's parents are celebrating their 45th wedding anniversary this weekend so I sent them this card. By doing a Google search, I found out that the 45th anniversary is sapphire so I went with a Pacific Point card base. I also used the paper from "Beyond the Garden" which is only available until midnight tonight.

The stamp set with the numbers is called "Memorable Moments" and will be available as of tomorrow.

 If you think I would have sent you a catalogue and you haven't received it yet, please let me know! Or if your catalogue has arrived in poor condition...ripped or crunched, please let me know as Stampin Up is replacing any damaged catalogues.

If you have received your catalogue, let me know what you think! I love it and feel like I can just pick those buttons and brads right off the page! The 5 new In Colours that we will have for the next 2 years are yummy and I am looking forward to doing some card making with them.

I have been working on a couple of things (plus I was sick a couple of weeks this past month, but I am fine now!). One thing I am doing is making some Christmas cards for our Christmas in July event (which might get moved to August...I will keep you posted). The other thing that has been taking a lot of my time is re-arranging my craft room after pulling out so many stamp sets, ribbons, and paper that retires as of today. It is always a really fun time to start with new and different papers and stamp sets.

Two of my demo friends and I are having a huge sale on Sunday, June 3rd and Monday, June 4th. If you want more details, please let me know!

I hope to have some cards ready soon for you...made from new stamp sets and papers. Please contact me if you want me to send you a catalogue (if you are in Canada only) and I would be happy to do that.

Enjoy your first weekend of June, and I will be back soon!

So long for now,
Chrissie

It has been exactly one Month since I was Here!!

Gosh, time sure does fly for me...do you all have the same problem?

In April we had Easter, Blake's 8th birthday, and Blake's First Holy Communion. Here is a picture of Blake in his suit at church this past Sunday (the 29th)...
That is my DIL's face in the upper left and my son's arm and legs at the bottom. Blake did a great job at the church and then there was a party back at their home for him. A lovely day!

This is Sean and Brenda, and Maddie and Blake in front of their lovely home. (Maddie had on these cute little kitten heeled shoes and looked so grown up for 11...I thought I would borrow them but she only wears a size 3!!)

You probably didn't come here just to read about my family so here are a couple of cards... 


These cards are ones that you can use any Designer paper with and the Cupcake punch is not retiring so everyone can copy these designs at any time.

Just a reminder that the Accessories Retiring List is on a first come basis, but the Retiring stamp sets will be available until May 31st. (Just let me know if you need me to send you the PDF's of the retiring products.)

Brand-new catalogue starts on June 1st!!
(If you have purchased from me before, you will be receiving your copy in the mail before June 1st!)

That's all for today...I promise to be back before June 2nd!!

So long for now,
Chrissie
