Hello all.  Did you think I fell off the face of the earth.  It has been a very long time since I posted anything.  Between the holidays, medical procedures, and packing up to winter in Arizona there wasn’t time for blog posts or videos.  I am now well settled in Lake Havasu City, and hopefully will get back on track with videos and posts.

Today’s card features a new bundle Sunshine & Tulips from the 2026 January-April Mini Catalog, and the stamp set of the month for January Fabulous Sayings.  The stamp set of the month is a new promotion Stampin’up! is offering with a $50 purchase not including taxes and shipping.  Cost is $5.00 and you are only entitled to one.  Promotions is while supply lasts.  You may remember the Sale-a-Bration promotion we used to have for January and February.  The product of the month replaces Sale-a-Bration.

CARD RECIPE: 

STAMPS:  Sunshine & Tulips, Fabulous Sayings >  PAPER:  Thick Basic White 4-1/4×11, Score at 5-1/2, Basic Beige 4-1/8×5-3/8, Granny Apple Green 4×5-1/4, Timid Tiger 4×5-1/4, Peach Pie 4×5-14, Scrap  >   INK:  Timid Tiger >   DIES:  Sunshine & Tulips   >  OTHER:   25-27 In Color Flat Pearls

Hope you enjoy this springtime card.  I realize most of you are still experiencing winter, but spring will come.

I am loving it in Lake Havasu, and am trying to find a church I can attend while I’m here.  I’ve tried two different ones, and will try a third one this week.  Then I will decide which one I want to attend.  Hope to be back with you next week.  Blessings!

Hi everybody!  Here’s my Terrific Tuesday card for this week.  This is probably the quickest and easiest card I have ever made.  It’s quick work because of the Storybook Moments Designer Series Paper.  I used one of the cut aparts, and two of the pop out die cutouts.  Check out the paper in the January to April Mini.

STAMPS:  Spring Corners  >  PAPER:  Early Espresso 5-1/2×8-1/2, Score 4-1/4, 3-1/8×4-1/8,                        Basic White 4×5-1/4 Basic Beige 4-1/8×5-3/8, Scrap   >  INK:  Early Espresso   >   DESIGNER SERIES PAPER:  Storybook Moments Cut Apart and Die Cutouts  >  OTHER:   Linen Thread

Happy Tuesday everyone.  I have been absent for couple of weeks, but glad to be back with you today.  Today’s card is a cute birthday card featuring the Friendly Fins Bundle.  I made a version of this card using the hammerhead shark stamp for a special young man at my church.  He is totally in love with sharks, and knows a lot about all kinds of sharks.  I used the dolphin stamp on our card for today.

Big thanks to Amy Koender for featuring this card on her channel.  I CASED (copy and share everything) from her.  Loved it exactly as she made it so no reason to change anything.  There are so many great Stampin Up demonstrators out there who willingly share their creations.  I always take advantage of their creativity when mine is lacking.  Hope you all received my email about the Stampin Up sale going on through tomorrow.  All stamps in the 24-25 Annual Catalog are available with 15% off.  Sale does not apply to bundles, and only the stamps in the annual catalog are included in the sale.  Go to my online store sherriminne.stampinup.net and check it out.

Thank you all for supporting my blog and YouTube channel.  Enjoy the cooler weather.  Fall is here at last.  Blessings!

I certainly took a long break from my blog.  Didn’t intend for it to be so long, but I had a holiday letdown in January I guess.  Holidays are always so busy with shopping, friends and family.  Then it’s January with – at least for Colorado – extremely cold temps and gray dreary days.  Past time for me to get back in the swing of things.  Today is a simple fun fold card featuring products found in the 23-24 Annual Catalog.  What do you think?

CARD RECIPE:

STAMPS:  Inked & Tiled  >  PAPER:  Lost Lagoon  5-1/2×8-1/2 score at 4-1/4 & 2-1/8, Pool Party 3×5, Very Vanilla 4×5-1/4, 3×5, 2-1/4×4-1/2    >    DESIGNER SERIES PAPER:  Inked Botanicals 1-7/8×5-1/4 (2)  >  INK:   Pool Party, Crushed Curry, Lost Lagoon  >  DIES:   Nested Essentials  >  EMBELLISHMENT:  Linen Thread

Even though Z fold cards are not my favorite, I do like the way this one turned out.

I will try my very best to have a post next week, and get back on my regular schedule.  Blessings!
