Wouldn't this make a great Father's Day gift? That's what I'm thinking…. I created this scrapbook page using the Strength & Hope digital set. For each digital or rubber stamp set that is purchased, Stampin' Up! will donate $2 to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. It's a win-win in my book!
I will be sharing this project and others on CH Morning Live, tomorrow – Tuesday, June 7th around 8:10 am so please tune in! I have my trusty technician Tom on the job, so will hopefully also be able to upload video of the appearance as well.

The Occasions Mini Catalogue has almost run its course…so don't miss out on any of the products! You have until April 30th to place your order. You can contact me or place your order online HERE.
Also expiring – your chance to get the Four Frames stamp set and Paisley Petals Designer Series Paper! You can order either of these items with your $25 merchandise order. One of my hostesses this month managed to earn the items for free based on her workshop sales. If you don't get your order in this month, you'll have to wait until the new Idea Book and Catalogue comes out in July. (I hate waiting….don't you?! LOL).
Also – there's still space in May's Card Class – Thursday, May 5th, 7pm here in Burlington. We'll make four cards, and you can be sure we'll be using some of the new product from the Summer Mini Catalogue! Contact me to reserve your spot!

So, I'm going to let you in on a little secret…I try really hard to be organized, but it can be really challenging for me. Especially in my stamp room.
I was coming up with ideas and samples for my May email newsletter (click here to sign up) and I thought I'd create a decorated journal. I love having these books around to write things down – thoughts, memories, "to do" lists…you name it. Anyway, I grabbed supplies that caught my eye….one of which was the designer series paper used on the front of this journal. Created my main image using the Just Believe stamp set; added the Victoria 5/8" crochet trim and a vintage brad and added it to the front of the journal. Love it.
When I went to catalogue all the supplies I used on the journal…I discovered that the Designer Series Paper I used isn't in the current catalogue! DOH. If you're wondering, Woodland Walk or the digital download of Urban Garden have similar colours and themes though. I think I should spend some of this long weekend putting away retired items….I'll add them to the pile of things for my annual "Rubber Garage Sale"!!
