I hosted a Scrap-IN at Michaels on Saturday (more commonly known as a 'crop') and enjoyed catching up on some pages. This page includes a new stencil from Ronda Palazzari, a favorite Stampers Anonymous border stamp, and the brand new #14 from Tim Holtz's Valentine Blueprints set. I used the '14' to mark my son's age last year.
My friend Anita recently had a very generous giveaway on her blog and I was quite lucky to win the set of Tim's new stamps. Anita sent such a beautiful (inside and out) package, including one of her very own handmade tags... what a very happy mail day! Thanks so much, Anita!
On to the big news... last week I received a wonderful phone call announcing I'd been selected to join the Xyron Design Team. I'm incredibly honored and excited to join this team. I've been using Xyron products for over a decade, and I am a true believer. I have three different Xyrons in my work space and use them every week. I cannot wait to start working with the team!
Thanks so much for visiting today. I hope you have a great week.
