Happy Monday! I hope all of you had a wonderful Easter weekend. What did you do to celebrate? It was a beautiful weekend in Frederick - sunshine, food and family! For once the Au Gratin Potatoes came out perfect! Lol!
Springtime brings new life and with new life - Grandparents are "born". One of my crafting friends recently became a Grandma to a beautiful little granddaughter. I had the perfect stamp set from the 2021 January - June mini catalog just waiting to create with! Treasures of Life Stamp set is a very special set expressing the joy that these precious little treasures bring to our lives!
I used Blushing Bride Cardstock and Smoky Slate from the Subtles 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper for my card base. I used a bit of Blushing Bride 3/8" Metallic Ribbon and Pearl Basic Jewels to embellish this simple stamped card. I used the Stitched So Sweetly Dies for the sentiment and image. Tuxedo Black Memento Ink was used this lovely grandma holding her new bundle of joy. I can just smell that babies precious little head!
This card was made with the same card supplies. This time I used the adorable little loving hands. This one just brings tears to my eyes as I remember my little ones presenting a special gift for their grandma or grandpa. I used the Stitched So Sweetly dies again to showcase the images and sentiments. I find myself using these dies most frequently to showcase simple stamped images. Great News! They are carrying over to the new 2021 - 2022 Annual Catalog.
I'm anxiously awaiting my Big Brown Box full of goodies with my preorder from the new 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. I can't wait to see the new In Colors in person. I received my copy of the new catalog last Friday along with a new stamp set provided as part of On Tour. On Tour will be an demonstrator event to showcase projects from the new catalog. I'll be attending on Friday, 4/19 - the day of my 2nd COVID vaccine. I am so hoping I will be feeling okay to enjoy the presentations! I've thoroughly enjoyed flipping, oohing and aahing through the beautiful pages. I wished that I could share photos of new products from the new catalog so you could ooh and ahh along with me - just a few more weeks! Unless you are interested in joining my team, then you can place your preorder and ooh and ahh right now! I would love to explain how you could get $125 worth of new products for only $99 - free shipping! Reach out to me if you are interested!

Mother's Day is coming fast along with Graduations! This week, I'll be working on some Mother's Day cards for an upcoming card swap for next week. I'm thinking of playing with my Hydrangea Hill suite next. I believe it will work well with those gorgeous butterflies from the Butterly Brilliance Suite! What are you crafting on this week?
Enjoy the beautiful spring weather and ...
Keep on Crafting!
