PUPPIES!!

Friday, March 31, 2023

I don't normally post on the weekends but I thought that I would give you an update on Tori's puppies.

They were born March 14th - National PI day (pie?) haha!!

Since she had two red females and 1 pitch black male, we call them Strawberry, Raspberry and Blackberry. The Berry Patch!!

These are the pictures that we took when they turned 2 weeks

Miss Raspberry has the cutest markings with a white "glove" on her front right paw, a white mark that you can see on her head and a white "bib". She is also the smallest berry in the patch.
You can see how tiny they are according to Dale's hands
Tori is a protective mama - she wasn't sure what we were doing to her baby.
Miss Strawberry is full red, super sweet, but no special markings
Master Blackberry tips the scale as the largest in the berry patch. He is absolutely adorable! He has white tips to his paws, a white tip to his tail, and a white"bib."

I made this card using the PLAYING IN THE RAIN stamp set and the February Paper Pumpkin kit stamp set (for the little frogs & the sun)

I had to borrow the little wagon die from my team mate, Inez, and when I showed her this card she said "but it's not puppies". That was a lightbulb moment so I cut out another wagon and came up with this...
I used the puppies from BELLA & FRIENDS, but I had to resize the little pups on my copy/printer machine to make them itty-bitty.

The Best Thing About Easter

Thursday, March 30, 2023

 One of my favorite books to read to the kids at Easter season is called "The Best Thing About Easter"

I read it every year to my day care kids and now to my grand kids
It talks about all the fun aspects that surrounds how we celebrate Easter, like Easter egg hunts, chocolate bunnies and getting dressed up for church...
But the BEST thing about Easter...
JESUS!! of course!!
If you follow my blog posts you have noticed that I have made my share of cute bunny cards for Easter, but my customers (by far) prefer the faith based cards.
This card was pretty easy, inspired by Erin, was perfect for the last cards that I needed to make up (I send 80+ Easter cards each year between my team members, my Paper Pumpkin customers, my Card Club Members and the people at church - staff and widows & shut-ins)
It uses ENJOY THE JOURNEY Designer Paper that makes a great sunrise background and the die from GREATEST JOURNEY creates a great hill. The stamp set for the words and the dove is from REJOICE IN HIM, and the branch cut from Pear Pizzazz card stock is from the FOREVER FLOURISHING DIES. 
The cross is cut from Crumb Cake Card Stock at 3/4". The vertical board is 3-3/4" long and the horizontal board is 2-3/4" long. I sealed them together then ran them through the emboss machine with a wood grain style embossing folder.
It's absolutely perfect and a super simple card.
We are getting close to getting a new Annual Catalog and the Last Chance List will be out soon - ummm it's out NOW check out the links below
Both the current Annual Catalog and the Mini Catalog expire on April 30th. Grab what you want now before it is too late
I will tell you that once the Last Chance List "hits the fan" - it's the paper and inks that go first AND... there will be a color revamp. I have no idea what colors are leaving and what new colors are coming. Oh wait - as a demonstrator we get prior knowledge of what is coming and going... Great time to sign on and the deal is always the best deal - $99 and get $125 worth of products AND... FREE shipping on the Starter Kit!!

Of the items used on this card, Greatest Journey Dies, Enjoy The Journey DSP, Rejoice In Him & the Forever Flourishing dies are all on the retiring list, even the Pear Pizzazz color is retiring - check out the links below.

GREATEST JOURNEY is a great out-doorsey stamp set and dies.

The funny thing is that I am NOT an outdoors type person, but I know that many of my friends are and they are great for masculine cards for my classes

During the tail end of SAB they offered the ENJOY THE JOURNEY Designer Paper as one of the FREE with a $50 order so I stocked up on a couple of those so that I could use it for classes

This is one of the cards that the ladies will be making at an upcoming Tuesday class. It also features the BIGGEST WISH Stamp Set. it was inspired by Diane DeWald

This second one, as well, is one that the ladies will make at an upcoming class 
I keep thinking that this sentiment "You belong among the STARS" would be great for graduation 
cards.

I really like this tent die but all of the dies in this set are great.

You can see my previous post HERE

Just a heads up that the Greatest Journey stamp set and dies are on the retiring list. If you like this bundle - NOW is the time to get it before they are GONE!
