For From Our Hearts

Hi Stampers Finally finished my stamp room.  Now on to the rest of the house! One of the good things about decluttering is that you have "stuff" to give away.  I went through all my cards and decided to give some to the From Our Hearts Organization.  There's about 300 in the stack! Well, I don't have a card for you today but hope to have one tomorrow. Thanks for stopping… Read More »

Mass e-mail or newsletter service

FYI ~~Rachel Q:  So if I have a Stampin' Up! group set up in my Outlook and send that group an email (BCC) does it mean it will be counted as more than the 5-10 (which may get set as spam)? I always use my name as the "To:" and my group as "BCC:". There are at least 25+ in the group. A:  It absolutely means that! The worst thing… Read More »

PS I Love You

Hi Stampers I have to tell you decluttering is the worst!  I keep getting side tracked in looking at old pictures.  I found some of me when I was in my 20's!  I hadn't seen them in years and was surprised to come across them.  First, here is one that I found of David & Felicia.  They are now 11 and 10 and will be 12 and 11 in a couple… Read More »

Valentine Birthday

Hi Stampers I am way out of my comfort zone when I make a card that's not shabby chic or vintage or something like it.  Today's card is that card and it's for a friend whose birthday falls on 14 February and she likes bright bold colors. Well back to decluttering – tomorrow I tackle my stamp room AAAACCK! Thanks for stopping by today!

Rue Des Fleurs

Hi Stampers I love the Rue des Fleurs Stamp Set.   This splendid, Victorian-inspired eight-piece set has everything you need to express gratitude with unconventional humor and wit! Coordinates with the sumptuously feminine Attic Boutique product suite. In case you are thinking this card looks familiar, I cased it from the Occasions Mini Catalog (Page 22) but changed a couple of things to make it my own.  I added another layer using… Read More »
