Grateful! Thanks to all of you who read my blog.  I am very Grateful For You!  If you haven’t already, please Subscribe to my blog.

I am also grateful for stamping! Stamping makes me happy and makes other people happy too!

I am very grateful for Lindsay who makes my hair very cute every five weeks.  I had a hair appointment today and my sweet daughter Abby wanted me to take homemade cookies to Lindsay.  My entire family loves Lindsay!  So because I love to stamp ,  I can make cookies “cute” in five minutes or less.  Here’s what I came up with today on my way out the door.StampinUp Fry Box, designed by demo Beth McCullough.

Everything I used is from the current catalog except for the Melon Mambo Trim PomPom.  The cookies (made by Abby)  are Flourless Brownie Cookies. (No flour must be healthy right?!)  Abby is entering these at the Iowa State Fair tomorrow.  Please let me know if you want the recipe.  They are delicious!

Anyway here’s Lindsay when I gave here the cookies.

See, doesn’t she look happy?  So like I said before, “Stamping makes me happy and makes other people happy too!”

What are you Grateful for?  Please leave me a comment at the beginning of this post.

Blessings,

It’s time to start making Christmas cards!

Here’s my first Christmas card for 2015! The Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge (PPA262) for this week is using Pool Party, Mint Macaron & Tip Top Taupe.  I used a new set, Cheer All Year, from the 2015 Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog to stamp the tree. You can use the Perfect Pines Framelits Dies to cut out the tree. Pearl Basic Jewels were added to make the tree fancy.

The Pool Party piece is embossed with the new Softly Falling embossing folder.  It’s really pretty in real life!

My favorite ribbon of all time is the 2015-17 In color 1″ Dotted Lace Trim.  I have every color of this lace trim and use it often.  The matching envelope is made with the Mint Macaron stripes from the In Color Designer Series Paper Stack.

Christmas is in 137 days!  It’s time to start making Christmas cards and projects!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂

Some of my favorite swaps I received

I received many awesome swaps at the 2015 Stampin’ Up! Convention and here are some of my favorites.  The first card is made by my good friend and downline, Jenny Waszak.  Her beautiful card is made using Watercolor Wings.  Aren’t those butterflies gorgeous!

Dreamia Toloso made this very cute Christmas card with Wondrous Wreath and the Brick Wall embossing folder.  It’s never too soon to start making Christmas cards!

Watercolor Words is quickly becoming one of my favorite sets.  This clean and simple card was made by Debi Calandrelle.  She even colored the Rhinestone Basic Jewels in the center of the flowers.

I can’t wait to show you more swap cards and more previews from the 2015 Stampin’ Up! Holiday catalog!

Blessings,

Beth
