Sympathy Cards

We sadly said our goodbyes to my grandmother.  She was 95, still living on her own while legally blind.  I am so blessed that returning to Idaho meant 13 years of creating memories and adventures with her.  My kids will always remember their great-grandma and I treasure this gift and legacy that is rare for many children.

My stamping team sent beautiful cards with words of comfort.  I deeply appreciated these sympathy cards and wanted to share them with you.

Marcy Kowallis designed this beautiful card.  The dragonfly comes from the "Awesomely Artistic" stamp set.

Becky Roberts designed this touching, monochromatic card using the "You've Got This" stamp set.

Jen Gaurino designed this sweet card of soothing pastels and geometric shapes.

Susan Loughrey designed this lovely card.  The colors are very peaceful. 

Aren't these lovely?  I am so grateful that they took time to send thoughtful words in a beautiful card.  Thank you for visiting today.   I appreciate your kind words and support.  Please join me for a local class - I really enjoy spending time with my stamping friends.

Affectionately Yours

Affectionately Yours is such a beautiful Designer Series Paper collection.  Anything you make will be gorgeous!

I love the Mint Macaron sheer linen ribbon.  Ribbons, butterflies and flowers: a perfectly sweet combination on this card.

Our new copper embossing powder makes a stunning impact.  Touches of Texture, creates the perfect splatter for this copper background.

Daffodil Delight is the cheeriest yellow - it's a smashing trio with the cucumber crush and tip top taupe.

Thank You Card Packets

I used my Pocketful of Cheer Paper Pumpkin to make up these adorable mini card kits. I took this project everywhere I went during July, working on assembling cards at places such as waiting at the hospital.  

I made an assortment of cards in tiny sizes and 3x3 envelopes.

Some are packaged with candy.

Here they are lined up and boxed ready for gifting to our teachers and school administrators and support staff.  I enjoyed making them up so I hope that they enjoy these cute packages.

There are always reasons to recognize others and show our gratitude.  Please join me locally for a class to make teacher gifts or my various card classes!

School Candy Treats

I'm getting some projects ready for school.  I know the first few weeks will be busy with figuring out routines and meeting new people.

Aren't these the cutest little treats to hand out to our great teachers and support staff?  This project was CASEd (Copy and Share Everything) from my teammate Jen Guarino.  

The box is all ready to go and counting down the days until school starts!

I would love to help you with treats and gifts for your school - join me for a class or place a custom order!  Leave a note in the comments, I will contact you with the appropriate information.
