I know its hard to believe that I’m 17 today!
In case you think I have gone all a little bit crazy, its my 17th Stampin’ Up! birthday today. I joined the company on their launch day in Europe, which means Stampin’ Up! UK is also 17 today!
So of course I have a lovely birthday card for you today with some of my favourite bundles from the annual catalogue, they are still discounted, along with all the ink pads, re-inkers, markers and blends, you have until 10.50pm tonight Friday before the Seasonal Sale ends.
Painted Lavender and Labelled with Love are the bundles. You can pick either dies or a punch with Labelled with Love, I will always pick the punch. I know dies take up less space, but punches are soooooooo quick!
Stamping in the corners gives you plenty of space in the middle to pop your sentiment, and adding a punched sentiment gives the card dimension. Quick and lovely.
Here are all the Stampin’ Up! items used. Click on the pictures to go shopping in my online store.

I got caught up! Well almost…….. I mean who ever completes all the things on their list?
The November Craft-along kits have been sent, I’ll be emailing next week with the cutting lists and the video link. There isn’t a Craft and Chat next week as I’m at a Stampin’ Up! event, but there will be a video going live at 2pm on Tuesday.
I’m looking forward to tomorrow I have my In person Christmas retreat and a scrapbooking day so its going to be busy but lots of fun too. There are of course mince pies, and I’m trying to figure out if I can get my little speaker to work for a few tunes! ( I might have mislaid the instructions….)
Sunday no doubt will be bathrooming again, but we will be heading to the beach as well.
Have a wonderful weekend, I’ll be back soon with some more creative inspiration.
