I’m posting a more sell-a-bration cards while I can! This card will be one of the projects we’ll be doing for Linda’s in home workshop tonight….(I’ve delayed publishing this post so it won’t spoil it for the class attendees!!). The card features the Sell-A-Bration set, Big Blossom. I inked the Fine Lace background with pink passion ink (applied with a brayer to make it easier), then pressed the clean blossom stamp onto the inked lace stamp to create a blossom with texture. It’s stamped across a whisper white notecard which is slightly smaller than the standard 1/2 sheet card, and comes complete with envelopes. I like how the flower wraps around to the back of the card. The sentiment from the winter mini set Small Sayings. The centre of the flower is barely banana, punched with the 3/4" circle punch and mounted with a stampin’ dimensional to give….dimension.

I’ve just added another event to my calendar. An Opportunity Night – Friday, Feb 23rd from 7 to 9 pm at my home. If you are curious about the Stampin’ Up! business opportunity, this is your chance to get your questions answered (with no commitment required!!). The mini starter kit special ($137) only runs until the end of February, so there’s still time to act! RSVP ASAP….I can give you more detailed instructions on getting to my place then. Hope to see you!

Did you know that a hamster can climb 2 flights of stairs? Neither did I until this evening. I am extremely happy & relieved to report that Pikachu Climber (that’s really what Dylan had named him, who knew how appropriate the last name would be) is back in his (I think it’s a "he") OLD cage – the wire one that I didn’t like because the bedding tended to fall out onto the floor when he pushed it around. However, bedding on the floor is much preferable than hamster on the floor, when given a choice. If only he knew – by escaping, he gave up the funky plastic condo and moved back to the starter wire cage home. (insert victorious/vindictive "HA" here) OK off to get some sleep now!! (Obviously didn’t get much work done tonight…promise to post some creative stuff over the weekend….)

It’s because I’m looking for a HAMSTER. Pikachu aka Houdini has escaped from his cage (AGAIN) – some kind of Herculian strength to knock out components of his plastic cage and escape. Last time we found him in minutes of the search starting. This time…….wish us luck. (or should I say wish ME luck). Dylan isn’t horribly broken up about the disappearance….yet. Off again for the search. We have the trail of food out….
