Life Happens

 

 

There are three things besides taxes that happen in life…. babies, weddings, and death.   At some point, we all need one of these cards.  Unfortunately for me, I need a sympathy card.  My cousin had been trying to get a hold of me yesterday to no avail.  Between work and golf, I was not around and she didn’t have my cell phone number.  So this morning I found an email to telling me her mom had passed away.  They had just put her in hospice and knew the time was coming to say goodbye.  She was my mother’s sister-in-law and this leaves my mother’s brother as the last living siblings of eight.  It is so sad to see that generation leaving us.

I found the perfect stamp that was in the Occasions Catalog and will be in the Annual Catalog.  So if you didn’t get it, you will have another chance.  The stamp set I am referring to is Southern Serenade.  You will find this stamp set so versatile that you will be reaching for it. It has wonderful words, but no sympathy words.  I used Rose Wonder which will be retiring.  I absolutely love that stamp set for the words and beautiful rose.  If you have not purchased that stamp set, you need to order it today!  Just click here to order all the Retired items. https://www.stampinup.com/ECWeb/product/140697/rose-wonder-photopolymer-stamp-set

Paris in the Spring

 

Welcome to our Pals Blog Hop, May 2018. This month we’ll be “Stepping Up with Textures or Techniques.” What’s that? Projects that are “stepped up” by using textures or fun techniques. Who knows, maybe both! Join us in the fun while we inspire you to “step up” your creations.

You may be starting the hop here or you may be coming from a previous Pal’s blog. Either way, you’ve come to the right place. You’ll find the full line-up below to help you move or “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

I want you to use your imagination and picture yourself in Paris sitting at a French cafe.  It is a beautiful spring day in Paris.  You have nowhere to go and can enjoy your wine or cappuccino as you watch the people. You can easily recreate this scene with the Mediterranean Moments stamp set.  It has the perfect sidewalk cafe on this stamp set.   Use your embossing paste to create a textured background that resembles a brick wall.

This card will surely take the receiver away to a peaceful moment in time which is perfect for their birthday.
