This stamp set did not really appeal for me until I saw it when I was at the Stampin’ Up Inspire, Create, Share event in Salt Lake City back in July.
It has stamps that work for Halloween, Thanksgiving/Fall and Christmas – all three of the major holidays. I have used this set a lot in my classes over the last couple of months and have been sharing them with you over the last few days.
Goodness me…. this is my 300th post!!!!! Wow, I am quite amazed that I have this much to share……..hhhhmmm to continue…..
This is the second card using this stamp set which really did not have much appeal for me until I saw it at the Stampin’ Up Inspire, Create, Share event in Salt Lake City back in July.

Last week I shared some of the preparation and projects for the Stampin’ Getaway I hosted on October 3rd. We had a great location – in the Community Room of one of the Fire Station’s in McKinney – we had lots of space to spread out, little kitchen area for lunch and snacks and with the exception of the monthly testing of the fire sirens – it was very quiet!
Mark your calendars……………. our next Getaway with be in May 2016.
Here are a few more pictures to share with you of our projects and the day…………
I have been conspicuous by my absence over the last couple of weeks, partly this is ‘life’ stepping in but mainly it was due to me preparing for the Stampin’ Getaway I hosted last Saturday. Although I had done a lot of designing and prep work thru August and September, there was a bunch of stuff that could not be done until the last minute – that took some time!
Anyway, I want to share some of the experience with you…………..
Back in June a dear friend of mine from my UK days celebrated a birthday – she is a lover of PINK – so I usually make her a predominantly pink card and this year was no exception.

Have been a little bit quiet over the last few days, I had a Christmas/Holiday card Stamp Camp on Friday and Saturday – I spent most of Thursday preparing for it which included tying a bunch of ribbon bows!…. and completely forgot to write something for my blog.

Welcome to Card # 6 using the Celebrate Today Stamp Set, which takes a Christmas theme.
I know, I know – we are not even half-way thru September and here I am showing Christmas cards!!! but Christmas ‘stuff’ has been in the craft stores for several months now and I am sure the next 3 months will fly by so I don’t think it is too soon to be thinking about getting a head start on the Christmas cards.

Today’s card using the ‘Celebrate Today’ Stamp Set is a shaker card, I have not done one of these before but I thought the balloon theme lent itself to a shaker card. I trawled the internet for some inspiration to find out how to do this and came across a video which I have linked further down this post.

Welcome to card #4 of my week with the ‘Celebrate Today’ stamp set When looking at all the pieces in this set it came a surprise to me to see ‘wedding’ as one of the greetings – had not really associated balloons and weddings before – so I took it as a personal challenge!
There is also a video for this one……………….!!!!!!!!!!
