Not fun

Some time today was spent stamping but it was not happy crafting :(  Last month my grandpa passed away and I needed to send thank you cards for flowers and things.  I had been putting this off because it was something I didn't want to think about but it needed done.  Yes I could have used ones from the funeral home and had it done and over however when I stopped by there last week the lady still didn't have things together so I didn't get any thank you cards picked up and honestly I felt I should make them myself.  If they cared enough to send something I should take the time to send them a proper thank you.  

Thank you to Ginger Pelfrey for posting the card for my inspiration on Facebook. 

Rose Wonder In Color Cards

I probably say this every year but I am loving the new in colors this year!! Usually I like one or two and the rest are ho-hum, but this year I love EVERY. SINGLE. ONE!!!


I was upset when we lost midnight muse and while dapper denim is not quite the same, I think it takes its place quite nicely.


If you place an order with me during the month of June you will receive a FREE set of these gorgeous cards.

*not my original design was found by multiple people on Pinterest

All you need to do to get your FREE CARDS, is place an order and use the hostess code: UCNPYMMN



Please be sure not to check the box that says no contact or I will not know who to send these lovely goodies to. 

Back to School Set

I made this cute little back to school set as a silent auction donation and am also making one for my daughters new teacher. 

The set includes a mini tote bag and hold some 3x3 little cards, a matching post it note holder and 2 regular size thank you cards with envelopes. 

Hopefully it does well at the auction and will raise a little money for the fundraiser. Also included was a new catalog and gift certificate for a class.

Painted Petals Birthday Cards

These cards were sent out to some wonderful people for their birthdays this month.  I saw a version of this card on Pinterest and knew I had to make some. Sometimes you see a card and when you recreate it, it just doesn't turn out quite as cute as you were hoping it would. In this case it was the opposite. I loved it even more than the original one I had seen. I am not sure but I think it was because the blackberry is just so stunning with that green ribbon and those flowers.

New Personalized Stamp!

Just released TODAY is a new personalized monogram stamp. This stamp is made from the wonderful new photopolymer material and leaves a terrific image. Make it say anything you want!

You can click on this link or directly on the photo to be taken to the site so you can play around and see what you can come up with. I think I have made about 5 that are going to be must haves!

What would you want your personalized stamp to say? These would make wonderful gifts for just about anyone. 

Photopolymer Thank you Set

Not sure how I missed doing a blog post about this. I really like the new photopoly stamps but I have yet to buy any of them myself. (though I have borrowed the bombs away one, love it!) When I saw this one I knew I HAD to have it. I make thank you cards quite often. I like to send them to customers when they place an order or just to friends and things for things they do. It seems like I am using the same sentiments over and over on my thank you cards and I needed some different ones, so when I saw this I think my order went in the same hour!

I will be sure to make some cards using this set as soon as I get it.

This set is only $13.95 and you get all the included images. These would be great for other direct sales consultants to stamp on your order forms, postcards and more.
