Stampin’ Up announced it’s Color Revamp last weekend at OnStage.  My favorite part of the revamp is the return of former In-Color, Costal Cabana.  Costal Cabana is a lighter version of my beloved Bermuda Bay!

I’m a designer and hosting the challenge this week at Use Your Stuff Challenge Blog.  We purchase crafting supplies to make beautiful cards, scrapbooks and gifts, not to just collect the crafting supplies.  Use Your Stuff was created to inspire us to use what we already have.  The Coastal Cabana ink and cardstock have been in my stash since 2013.  I pulled it out today for this week’s challenge of, “Babies.”  Please head over to Use Your Stuff and enter the challenge.

On my latest version, I used the fancier banner from Bunch of Banners Framelits.  I also added the little heart from the Enamel Shapes- Brights.  These are retiring, so get them while you still can.

This was a Chicago Cubs Baby gift for one of my favorite Cubs fans!  Notice he got a Real Red Enamel Shape for his heart.  I’m so glad Baby Bear made it into the new catalog.  Do you have any ideas for what kind of Bear I should make next?  Please leave me a comment with your suggestion.

If you’ve never stamped with me before, you’ll also get to choose 3 cards with envelopes from my card rack.  If you invite a friend who’s never stamped with me, you’ll each get to choose 3 cards with envelopes.

I’ve been busy organizing my Stamping Studio to accommodate the retiring product and new product arriving soon.  I’ve also started planning Keegan’s grad party.  We became parents 27 years ago and will become empty nesters starting in August. This fall we’ll have three college kids and one college graduate.

Blessings,

Beth 🙂

Which one is your favorite?  It makes Marcelyn’s day to hear from you.  Please email her at  marcelynchurchill@msn.com  Please stop by next week to see more of her creations.

If you’ve been reading my blog very long, you probably know I have 4 kids (actually young adults now) and 2 therapy pups.

Ryan is 22 and graduating from Iowa State in December with a Software Engineering degree.  Maya is our 11 year old therapy dog.  Maya is our best therapy dog because she’s very calm with the people we visit.  She’s convinces each person she likes them the best.  Maya is our first dog and is the family dog.

Sean is 27 and works at Microsoft in Seattle, WA as a Software Engineer.  Molly is our 9 year old therapy dog.  Molly is more anxious around strangers. She is my dog.  My family gets frustrated when she abandons them to be with me. 🙂

Pictures of Abby and Keegan will be coming soon!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂
