Oh, Scrap It All!
Ann & Cecil left me yesterday to go to see Joyce Meyer speak in Sacramento. Their seats were actually pretty good & they sat with some really nice ladies from Southern California. Still, I had to fend for myself to share this card with you because...
Happy World Card Making Day!
What a good day to stamp with your friends! That's why I'm featuring a card today from one of my best friends & biggest fans, Doodles. She sure loves that bird punch! And she loves our Stampin' Up! Designer Series Patterns Paper...
Halloween’s a Hoot!
I've got to tell you that I'd get in trouble if this were me! This would be a great card for a guy. You could change the sky to a Marina Mist & put something other than the Midnight Raven Stamp #116529 from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini...
Don’t Let Time Get Away From You
In the 5 years of my life, I have learned that Ann knows a thing or two about stamping. She does it better with me telling her what to do. She wishes she'd have become a demonstrator sooner. She wishes YOU'D become a demonstrator sooner too! Time is running...
Do Your Homework!
It's always a good idea to do your homework! Ann had a class here where they were playing around with the new Distressing Essentials Kit #118762. They were playing around & using it with the Newsprint Designer Series Paper. Although...
Dust Off Your Brayer!
Ann dusted off her brayer to do this card. She used the Stampin' Up! Season of Friendship stamp set #111776 & the All Holidays set #114916 to make it. The Bat Punch #119279 sets it off, doesn't it? This is the first year in a long time that...
Filled With Gratitude
Ann's back & I'm so happy! She likes my new bright smile that I got while she was at the Stampin' Up! Founder's Circle Retreat. I picked this card to share with you. I found it in our cards from the 24/7 Stampers' swap they...
You Can Get It, But You Can’t Buy It
...and you can't get it just anywhere! Human, oh human! Have I got news for you! Ann called me from the Stampin' Up! Founder's Circle Retreat in St. George, Utah to tell me the good news. There's a new stamp set coming & only a few...
While Ann’s Away…
I can't believe that Ann left me the keys to the office while she's gone to Founder's Circle. I think that she's hoping I'll do some filing - NOT THIS DOG! Since she wouldn't take me to the Stampin' Up! celebration, I'm...
Not All Dogs Have Spooky Power!
Yikes! I'd heard that my predecessor, a Westie named Johnny Walker, was a pretty powerfully cool pooch, but I never had an idea HOW powerful those Westies can be! Ann had a Halloween tale of her own to tell about that hat from the...
It's always nice to get a handmade card in the mail. This one came from someone on our team of 24/7 Stampers Valory, from Fairfield, CA to thank Ann for an event she did for the team. It uses the Stampin' Up! Hello Again stamp set #113780. ...
Snowmen Have All the Luck!
(speaking of luck - Read On! I'm announcing the Blog Candy Winner from this post today!) Everyone had a funderful time yesterday. We had people from SIX different towns! Some of you traveled almost 2 hours to come see me! Honest! ...
Look What Landed in Our Back Yard!
I was sitting on the back patio overseeing some work that Cecil & Mike were doing to improve my outdoor gym earlier this week. Ann was inside & took this picture through the screen door. STALKER! Anyway, I digress. They didn't notice the...
Coffee or Wine? Blog Candy!
It's good to see Ann back at the stamp table. She's getting better at carrying out my suggestions with each card. We butted heads yesterday on these two cards made with the Stampin' Up! French Foliage stamp set (Wood-#120845 Clear #121166). ...
3 Numbers to Make Your Day (+ 1)
Sharon Tanenbaum shared this in Real Simple Magazine (one of our favs): The average American adult spends 29 hours online each month. (I wonder what the average for dogs is!) 9% of the U.S. population has a birthday in August, the most popular month. 5 minutes...
