Can you say amazing….oh my. Yes, I have my catalog and being a demonstrator you can order some things early…..fun.fun.fun. If you would like one, email me at bettybickford (funnything) comcast.net. Yes, these days with shipping issues, it will be interesting what we can order. I do know one thing, the amazing paper, in colors. Yes, they are so beautiful and bright, just what we need today in all the changes going on in our lives.
Meantime, I am doing the Daffodil fun cards. I do know. I am heartbroken that Timeless Tulips stamp set is sold out and no more……my goto now is Daffodil dreams and dies.
Spring Love Daffodil
The above card is just simple but striking. The paper is now retired (means you can not order anymore) but do not fret…..new papers starting tomorrow and than come the summer, more holiday fun.. Can not wait. I will enjoy the moment. The dies are my go to, simple and easy to cut with the cut and emboss machine. I will have more cards this week, I have been a Daffodil frenzy.
Place an order with me…..Yes, things are so different today but creating cards and giving cards are the greatest joys to give to yourself and others. Make it a joyful day!
You may not celebrate Easter, but it has been part of my being for my entire life. This year, it has not been one to celebrate. I push myself to do so. Last August, I lost my brother after heart issues, strokes and falling. He was my only sibling who stayed with the Catholic church and celebrated the special day. This same special brother always called me when I sent him a card. This summer, Covid restrictions kept me from seeing him in the hospital. The saddest thing, I could not attend his funeral. I was helping someone who had fallen and lived out of town. In her 80’s with no home Healthcare available. I attended the burial but not the same.
Easter, Spring…season of change, renewal. Life stops for no one. My heart aches but creating helps me in so many ways.
The card I show Above is one I did post before…look back and you will see All the information on how it was made.
It is a lazy day. Cold, raining…above is beautiful Yum Yum. She is always ready for love and cuddles.
Paper Pumpkin March 2022Winding yarn for socks
Made a thank you card and prepared yarn to knit socks. Feeling cold, so moving and throwing old stuff out…..old old stuff. A boring but productive day.
Yes, organizing so I have space for new stamp pads, paper and markers. Truly love this about Stampin Up!. Color makes everything fun. These new colors are needed. The Parakeet Party, is Kermit Green to me….love Kermit the frog and this lime color green.
I began as a demonstrator in 2017, February. I have had so much fun, especially in the last two years. I love reaching out to family and friends, paper and mail is so much better than a email or phone call….truly more personal. Like everything in the past two years, change, change and more change.
Soon to be gone….sadly….love these colors. Yes, knew ones are coming but I have grown to love these colors, especially Misty Moonlight…it goes with my favorite blue Night of Navy.
Oh, yes…willmiss these greatly.
My storage of 220 to 2022 colors
Yes, every 2 years, one set of colors retire and a new set of colors come. The major colors keep on, like brights, subtle, regals, etc… I love getting the new colors cause it makes your creations more interesting. Color is color, truly inspiring
Misty Moonlight is my go to color. I made the base by cutting it to,4-1/4″ by 8-1/2″. Scored at 4-1/4″. I stamped the greeting with Misty Moonlight on white. First on 4″ X 4″. I also cut white for inside.
My first attempt…to much whiteMy 5hird attempt
As I was trying to post this, my internet went out and I lost everything…so I had to reload everything. I have autosave, but it erased that, too…..ugh….
one retired, one new.
The stamp set I used, Happiest Birthdays, is now retired. It was on the retired list a few weeks back and now sold out. That makes it a collectors item. The other set bottle of Happiness is available May 3, or available now if you like to join my team, you also get 20% off all purchases. Give it a thought, you choose what you like for your first order for a kit….lots of freebies, too.
so many creative designers in this blog hop. So thrilled to be apart. Like many, the wonders of spring brings hope…needed so much in so many ways.
Easter and spring was the theme of this hop. I have had so many ideas floating around in my head. I hope you enjoy what I am sharing.
Springing in Michigan
Well, spring is not blooming here in Michigan. It is trying, we are having a cold rainy day today and tommorrow is going to be sunny. This is the pokies in our yard….daffodils when they are blooming.
I was going to going with flowers and they shout Spring/Easter, but I went the bird route. Spring to me is flowers and birds…plus trees. Love Spring. There is a stamp set called Birds and Branches with die set that I have had and hardly have used. I am sad cause it has been out since 2020 and this week I know it will be on the retired list. Yes, things come and go quickly like the seasons.
Birds and Branches with matching die setGetting thoughts togetherBluebirds…Final Easter Spring Card
I used crumb cake as the card base, I cut a piece of the horizon dsp to 4″ x 5-1/4″ for the back layer. I used the horizon dsp for the die cuts of leaves and birds, as shown above. Simple and sweet, my motto.
The sentiment is from Timeless Tulips, a lovely set with matching punch.
this is a card made for birthday….we love cats. This is from a old retired stamp set. This means it can no longer be ordered. Sadly, this changes quickly and often. I bring this up cause things are changing again at Stampin Up!. First like every costs are changing, sadly, like everything these days. I am hanging on….our lives have changed greatly with lower income and higher prices, our household is hurting. I love creating and sharing, I will not stop but I need to change how I do things…….I know many who tell me to stop and step back….I need to have some sells or I need to scale back. I am my own best customer and need to change to survive.
So….next week the retire list comes out and will be telling you about it March 23….so things are changing…
Place an order, use host code RJZPGZRC and get extra fun….
so delighted to be with other creative Stampin Up! demonstrators. At this posting I am celebrating 5 years as a demonstrator. The year 2020 to present has been hard because of Covid, husband forced into early retirement and I have had many surgeries but thankful I am still creating and sharing the joy.
fun fold birthday
I made a simple, fun and easy
I used cherry cobbler as a base. This is a standard A2 card. 8-1/2 by 5-1/2 scored at 1-1/4 and 4-1/4. Turn back the 1-1/4 panel. I cut two 1″ strips of DSP ( I used Pattern Party) into 5-1/4″ length and glued to strip turn back…fun fold. I added one strip one strip to inside white layer, 4″ by 5-1/4″
