Snow Day Fun!

In Western Washington a normal snow event leaves us with a few inches of the fluffy white stuff that melts in a day or two. We went to bed on Sunday with that inch of snow but woke Monday Morning to 6-7 inches on Hat Island and more on the mainland. We enjoyed an extra 2 days on the island with school cancellations. The big news is that it has stayed with us and Friday night another 4-8 inches is expected! I say "Bring it on!"

Toni & I worked on our January Paper Pumpkin kit.

The kit included 24 reversible pillow boxes ~ enough for her whole classroom plus the teacher!

Aren't those kangaroos just the sweetest? The fun didn't stop there. The kit contained 24 kangaroos & Pool Party circles AND 24 chameleons and Pool Party hearts... we also made Valentines for Isaac's classmates!

We filled cello treat bags and made cute toppers. I don't know when I have ever had Valentines completed for 2 classrooms a full 10 days early before!!! Yay for Paper Pumpkin and a snow day!

Stampin' Up! has given us a sneak-peek at the February Paper Pumpkin kit...

We know that the February kit includes the makings for 9 full-size cards in 3 designs and contains photo images of succulents. If you have never subscribed before, you will also want to know that each kit includes an exclusive stamp set, at least 1 Stampin' Spot (ink pad), and the mini glue dots and/or dimensionals needed to complete the projects. You can expect card bases, envelopes, and both printed and plain (for stamping) die cuts. Your first kit will even include an acrylic block!

IDEAS Bundle Blog Hop Amazing Life

Welcome to the IDEAS Blog Hop, a group of international demonstrators who create a monthly bundle of tutorials for our customers and team members. This month's theme is Birthday's and since the 2019 Occasions and Sale-A-Bration Catalogs were just released, we are focusing on those new products.

I chose to use the Amazing Life Stamp Set for my birthday card and decorated clipboard.

The IDEAS bundle features multiple tutorials, and each tutorial features at least one card and one project, some include multiples. Would you like a copy of the instructions for these projects to use for your personal use, or even to use in your classes? Contact me, or your participating demonstrator, to find out how to purchase the tutorial bundle or earn it for FREE!

Once you have received the tutorials, please remember not to share or distribute the printed or electronic copies of these bundles. We have worked hard to provide these exclusive projects for your use. If you know someone that would like to purchase the bundle, please direct them to me to obtain their copy. Thanks for your support.
