Hi Stampers!

Today will be the last live post I make while I'm still in this country!  I'm heading out to Italy for vacation!  YAAAAAYYYY!!!!!

I will try to schedule some posts ahead of time to post on the blog while I'm away.  That way you will still have some stamping projects to look at while I'm gone.  :-)

If you wish to place an order while I am away, please do so on my online store.  I will not be able to place orders for you while I'm away.  If you have any issues with orders, please send me an email and I will take care of them as soon as I get back.  

To stay up to date with any promotions that may begin while I'm away please check the SU Homepage (http://www.stampinup.com/home/).

Now on to today's card.  This card is 100% a CASE.  Sadly, I do not know who created this little gem! If it was you, please let me a comment so I can give you credit!  I had gone to an event my upline was holding and she had displays set up of the swaps she received at the Leadership event.  This card was one of them so I snapped a quick pic on my phone and recreated it at home.  Here is the picture of the card that I made for my cousin's birthday!

Hi Stampers! 

Well here we are, the middle of the week!  To get us through rest of the work week, I have a bright and cheerful birthday card to share with you!



Stampin' Up! has released the April Best of 25 Years stamp set - Best of Butterflies!  Check out the Best of 25 tab above for more information on how you can purchase this set and how you can earn a FREE stamp set!  I have a lot of cards that I made with the Best of Flowers stamp set, so stay tuned to the blog because you are not going to want to miss these cards!!!!



I also just got my This and That bundle and I can wait to dig in and start capturing my memories!  Wait until you see it, the papers are gorgeous and the pages in the journal are just so cool!  Remember that the bundle price is only available in April.  If you want to purchase the items when the new catalog goes live, they will be sold individually at the list price.  I'm hoping that I will have some samples to show you before I leave for vacation.

Now on to today's card!
