The Olympics

Shad and I ventured to Vancouver for the weekend to take in some of the Olympics. We didn't have tickets to any of the events but decided to venture to some of the sites around town. We managed to see the cauldron and of course the rings. They said that they would turn gold every time Canada won a Gold. We should have stayed longer because Canada won a Gold metal not long after we left them.
It was a ton of fun seeing so many people celebrating. I hope everyone enjoyed the games as much as we did.

Sweet Treats


With Valentine's Day just around the corner I thought it would be nice to bring a treat in for my coworkers. I didn't have much time to work on them but wanted to use sweet heart cups. I used the full heart shape punch which makes it a perfect fit for the cups. I think they are so much fun. The only hard part was to decide what to put in them. The cardstock I used was certainly celery, real red and whisper white. The stamped heart image is from a Sweetheart stamp set.
I'm still working on Shad's Valentine's card and a little something for my nieces so I will post them this weekend. I hope your ready for Valentine's Day.

Sorry the image isn't great I just used photo booth but I will take actual pictures of my next Valentine's cards.

Happy Stamping!

Stamp Out Cancer



I will be participating in my third Relay for Life in June and found the perfect way for me to give back with one of my favorite hobbies - Stamping!
I will be hosting 3 Stamp Out Cancer events (1 in March, 1 in April and 1 in May). These are stamping classes I offer with all proceeds going towards my teams (Rose's Buds/Rose's Buds Part 2) fundraising goal for the Relay. We have a big goal this year and I really hope we make it.

Have you participated in the Relay for Life before? My Mom was diagnosed with cancer over 6 years ago and is today a cancer survivor. This is a great way for us to give back and remember how lucky we are to have her with us. It is also the excellent opportunity to remember those we lost to cancer and offer support to those friends and family who are currently fighting there own battles with cancer.

If you are interested in attending a Stamp out cancer class (or all 3) please contact me or if you would like to donate to such a great cause please visit our team page http://relayforlife.kintera.org/faf/search/searchTeamPart.asp?ievent=330307&lis=1&kntae330307=B575B11C512D46A08FC730BBAB10CFFB&team=3628491.
