Making Valentines with Leftover Stamping Supplies
We're really on a roll now! This is not the first time this month that I've made a card with leftovers. And it's not the first time this month that we've made a card with no stamping. You can see the original card in this post from last month. You'd be surprised how...

Hello, Friend! I’m Grapefruit Grove!
We weren't crazy about Grapefruit Grove when it was first released, but over the years we've learned something about Stampin' Up!'s IN Colors. We buy them right away and use them. All of a sudden, we realize why Stampin' Up! picked them! They're great colors that all...
Happy Stampaversary, Ann!
Can you believe that Ann has been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator for 20 years? And in April, she's been doing it full time for 15 of those 20 years. I don't know what most people would do but Ann took the day off. And then she went to bunco. It wasn't the highlight of...
Starting Early on St. Patrick’s Day
St. Patrick's Day is usually a happy day, don't you think? People drink green beer. They have parties. They wear green so that they don't have to get pinched. Now, that's the part I don't understand. I don't know anyone who would want to hit me. At least I hope not....
It’s Not Just for Birthdays
When Ann and I first saw the Amazing Life stamp set, we thought that it was pretty much for birthdays with a few things thrown in to make the birthday card around a theme - like flowers for spring and 4-leaf clovers for St. Patrick's Day. Amazing Life #148750 It's a...
Grab the Foil Butterflies!
A few days ago, we shared a warning about the Grapefruit Grove and Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheets might be sold out before their time. They haven't yet, but it's getting close! We figured we should show you why these foil sheets that you can get free with a $50 order are...
You Made Ann’s Day!
Yesterday didn't start off as the best day but those of you who showed up for our live stream really lightened the rest of the day for us. It began with scheduling our post for yesterday. We thought we scheduled in for 4:30 in the morning like we usually do. Once we...

Always Nice to Get a Card in the Mail!
Yes, it's always nice to get a card in the mail. And it's even nicer to get a handmade card in the mail. And what's better than a handmade card in your mailbox? A handmade card with a gift certificate inside! It's just another wonderful thing about being a Stampin'...
Is This Card Sponge Worthy?
We had such fun yesterday. Of course, Ann did almost everything as I instructed - including 3 kinds of sponges. But there was thing at the end.... She forgot to tell everyone how to get the Color Coach! So if you haven't gotten yours yet, you can download your Color...
Incredible! Like You!
Ann and I simply adore the greetings in today's featured stamp set, Incredible Like You. We weren't sure about the flowers and everything, but not the verdict is in! We Love Them! But more important - what do you think? Can you spot the TWO free items on the card? I...
One Cut Card with Free Stamps
Would you believe that the card we made was almost free? Of course, not totally, but it was made with bonus stamps and ribbons that Ann got free from Stampin' Up!. Yep! Free! And it only took a few minutes to make a simple encouraging card. Can you believe that Ann...
Another Version of Marvelous
