Stampin' UP! Birthday Card Organizer kit!

It has been on my bucket list, to create a Perpetual Birthday Calendar... but it just seemed it would be overwhelming!  This solves the problem perfectly!

Check it out!  I think you will agree!!

 Here's a sneak peek of what we will be creating at my next Stampin' UP! workshop!  I cased this idea from a fellow demonstrator Susan Ashby!  She is SO creative.  Networking with other Stampin' UP! demonstrators is so inspiring!

A bunch of demonstrators in my area meet and swap cards once a month... we garner new ideas from each other every time!  If you're one of the gang please comment below and let us know what YOU think about being a Stampin' UP! demonstrator and if you agree how fun it is to network!

I will be creating a video soon!  But wanted to hop in and give some  of you a little SNEAK PEEK!  If you've ever thought about becoming a Stampin' UP! demonstrators, this is another perk... networking with fellow demonstrators can be just as fun as Pinterest!!

Prayers for all of you in Florida... our hearts are with you!

And FINALLY time for another video tutorial!!

Things are starting to come together, the new barn is up and the electric has begun!  Time has sort of stopped for us... sifting through the ashes (and the water, and the smoke damage)... salvaging as many memories as we can.

Today felt like a new beginning.  I have not made a video since the end of September!  Today, I had to make two videos, because the first one was just BAD!  LOL... as you know I don't edit my videos, but sometimes it's just too unorganized!  So I hope you enjoy, this simple but fun

 What Time is it?  It's Journey Time!!

It's TIME to find out what happened to Christmas!  I brought you all up-to-date on my last post, so you know I wasn't able to do videos or much posting... but I was able to CREATE for Christmas!!  After all CREATIVE Journeys seem to 'take you away!'  And I truly needed that last month.  So while we try and get everything back together again.. I thought I would post some projects we did at my workshops.

This little gift card holder is cute and simple!  A great way to make your not-so-personal gift card, into a hand crafted gift!  I'll have the videos up before NEXT Christmas... lol!  Luckily the Pine Cone dies are NOT retiring!  I really love playing with them... here is a fun swing card using the Pine Cone dies and Here You Goat!

Credit to Jennifer McGuirre!  I watched a video where she used a Tim Holtz reindeer on a card just like this... Immediately I KNEW I had to use my goats!  We do after all have ten adorable GOATS on our property that we just adore!  They just won't sit still while I put the fake antlers on them!  There is however, a penny on the back of the goat's behind... lol... the weight helps him swing back and forth.  

I will post again once my tutorial is uploaded!

UPDATE:  PDF Instructions New Horizons Center Step PDF Tutorial 

Will have the video tutorial posted on my YouTube channel this week. just in time for you to play if you order now!

I just love this bundle and there is so much more in the new January - June mini catalog! You can view it by clicking the picture in the right hand column.

I know I will be posting LOTS of adorable projects in the upcoming months!

 It's been a while!!  2021 was a bit harsh to our family!!  First COVID then just when we thought we were back on our feet - OUR BARN BURNED DOWN!

So at midnight New Year's Eve we opened ALL the doors and windows and faithfully ushered 2021 OUT!!  LOL!!  We are EXCITED for 2022!

We are SO grateful, that the fire was contained to our barn because the winds that week were so fierce the utility company shut off everyone's electricity on Thanksgiving Day!!  But God is so good, the day our fire started the winds were completely still!  My 'scrapshack' is only 20 feet from the huge barn which burned to the ground!  With the windows OPEN!  

Of course we are also grateful it did not spread to our home and the neighboring homes!

With that said... there is no electricity in my shop yet, so I have not been able to post any new projects or videos!  But I promise to catch up very soon!

Now is the perfect time to take a relaxing, yet exciting JOURNEY through Stampin' UP! January - June Mini catalog AND the Sale-A-Bration catalog located to the right on the side bar!  

We are hoping for electricity this week and videos will begin again!  Meanwhile take a peek at some of my previous Journey Time Videos!
