A Little Gift for You

If you look at all the recent samples of handmade cards you'll notice a trend...simple. Let's face it, life is busy and that makes us busy. BUT that doesn't mean that you can't create beautiful, thoughtful handmade creations. This card represents just that. I needed a pile of birthday cards, fast, and this was it! I made them in all different colors; blues and greens for the guys, pinks and yellows for the girls. Two stamps, two punches, one ink color and done! Now that's what I call simple...and effective...and handmade from the heart! My tip for you today; don't overlook your holiday stamp sets. This little image came from one!

Creativity for a Cause

I serve as the assistant lead on behalf of Stampin' Up! for the Ronald McDonald House in Tampa, FL. It is my responsibility to ensure all 14 guest rooms are stocked with hand-stamped greeting cards for the families to use during their stay. The RMH uses approximately 300 cards per month and I need more “manpower” to help me create them. This is where your group (Women’s ministry, group of neighbors, friends, Bible study, Mom’s group, Bunco group, etc.) comes in. I will provide pre-designed, pre-cut pieces that are ready to be stamped and assemble. I ask for a $5 donation, per person, to help off set the cost of supplies. I would love to have your help, so together, we can make a difference in our community. For more information or to organize your group, please contact me.
