Happy Memorial Day Weekend Everyone!

Hello Crazy Stampers,

I've had such a busy couple of weeks.  My daughter has graduated from high school and we had a big celebration for her.  It was alot of fun, but sad for this momma.  I'm so proud of her.  She was accepted into the Aviation Mechanics program at the University here in Alaska.

I did have time to do a quick video for you the next day, after all the festivities were done.

I used the stamp set, Glamper Greetings, which is retiring May 31, 2018.  Seeing this camper here in my town inspired me to pull out this cute stamp set. 

Memorial Day weekend is Alaska's kick off season for camping.  (Don't forget what Memorial Day is all about. Remember the ones who lost their lives for our freedom.)

Enjoy the video!  I look a little rough in this one. LOL!

Early release of my latest video!

My sister and I had an amazing time.  We went to dinner, and watched Cabaret.  (I had no idea it was so sad.)  Then we went and watched an 80's band.  So fun!!  This morning I took my mom to breakfast.  It was so nice to spend time with these two.  My sister leaves to go back to Massachusetts the end of the May, so I wanted to have some sister time.  Makes me sad she's leaving.  I've enjoyed having her be close.

Well enough of thinking about that sadness.  I was able to upload my latest video today while visiting my mom's.  Her internet is so much faster then mine.  Because of that, you are able to watch it early.  Congratulations on the happy news! lol!

My two girls decided they wanted to participate, so you'll get to see them in it.


Enjoy!

Sweet cupcake video 2 and 3

How many hours have I spent trying to download these videos?  The answer is sooooo many! LOL!  It's worth it though.  I'm getting to share what I love to do.

In between the stamping, I've been enjoying my youngest play soccer.  She's still too young to be pro (LOL!), but I think she's great.  My oldest will be graduating soon, so we have been busy getting her ready.  I'm going to miss her, even though she will only be 2.5 hours away.  I still can't believe in less then a month she'll be fleeing the nest.  

Well I should let you know the measurements of each card, so I will give you my recipe.

Hello Crazy Crafters!

Hey guys, sorry I’ve been MIA the last few weeks.  I was getting ready for Onstage Las Vegas.  Which was AMAZING!!  I love being a part of a team that is so positive and supportive.  Another thing is the discount and getting access to things before everyone else. LOVE, LOVE!!  Plus we got to see the new catalog.  UMMMM AWESOME!!  The new colors and stamps are exciting!  I love the new ink pad design.  It is way easier.  Stampin'Up! really is an amazing company to be a part of. Love seeing all my friends who live all over the United States.  I can't wait to see them in Orlando.  Message me if you are interested in being a part of our team.  We have so much fun and have amazing events during the OnStages lives.  Plus you can work your business and little or as much as you like.  No pressure.  I joined as a hobbiest and now I'm doing this as a business, because I love what I do.  When you love it, people feel that and want to be a part of it.

After I left Vegas, I went to visit one of my best friends in Reno.  It was a quick visit, but so nice to see her and her family.

Then back home to get caught up on my house being at the mercy of my husband and children. LOL! It really wasn't that bad and my oldest is a huge help.  I needed to catch up on laundry.  Plus I needed to start spring cleaning. My craft room is a mess.  Then there's volunteering at my youngest's school and helping out at Girl Scouts.

So I put together a video for you.  It is LOOOOONNNNNNGGG!  I went ahead and split it into three different ones.  I decided to step in front of the camera.....SORRY. LOL!  I wanted to high lite one of my favorite stamp sets that is retiring...sad face.
I made 3 cards kinda on the fly, not really knowing what I wanted to do.  It was fun.  I think I may start doing LIVES on Facebook.  Speaking of Facebook.  I have a promotion going on this week.  Head over there and get the details....Crazy Paper Crafter.

Enjoy the first video of three.

Adorable Hedgehugs!

Just wanted to pop in super quick. I'm having a very crazy week.  Who says stay at home mom's get bored with nothing to do.  Not this chic!  Even with the kids in school, I still feel like I have a full plate.  I'm loving being home.  Should I feel guilty, heck no.  Should mom's who work outside the home feel guilty?  Heck no!  This is 2018.  Anywho, I have been busy volunteering, getting ready for my daughter's birthday and working on my Stampin'Up! business.  Stampin'Up! is where I meet friends like you and get to share what I love.  The only thing I hate about it is....it takes sooooo long for my videos to download. LOL!  That is not Stampin' Up!'s fault.  It's my sllllloooooooowwwww internet.

I did however manage to make this card on Sunday, to share with you today.  I hope you love it.  I was super quick and right now I need quick. Cheers!

Here's the video on how to make this super simple card.  Enjoy!

Friend You Are The Sweetest!

Well guys spring break is over for us.  It's back to the regular schedule.  It was nice while it lasted.  I am ready for the snow to be gone and I'm looking forward to some green.  Nothing like some bright colors to make you feel like summer, so I decided to use some. 

This stamp set is so cute!  I just love these little strawberries! I popped up some of them, which really added to it. Making this card was easy. I will put a list of supplies at the bottom of this post. 

Remember this stamp set is available in the Occasions catalog only until the 31st of March, 2018.  

If you want me to do a video on this card, let me know in the comments below.
