After yesterday's very busy Post-It® Note project I decided to do something simpler today. In fact, using scraps from the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack it turned out even simpler than I'd imagined. My plan to include a sneak peek of a new product from the Stampin' Up! 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue was shelved so you'll have to come back tomorrow to see that. For now though, here's something bright and cheerful. VARIED VASES The project began with the retiring Varied ... VIEW POST
Sale-A-Bration Is Ending Soon

Well I hope you were paying attention because one of the sets mentioned, Wonderful Floral Framelits, sold out overnight.

Every Tiny Victory
As I mentioned yesterday we are expecting a powerful storm to hit us sometime today. In fact as you're reading this we might be in the thick of it. So I thought it would be prudent to try to get a few projects made ahead of time. With that done, I'm hoping to get the blog posts written just in case we lose power.
