Updates

I felt the blog needed a face lift (don't we all) so I hunted around on the Internet and found this free site with backgrounds. I love the daises, they are one of my favorite flowers. It's still a work in progress. I'm sprucing up for the Royal blog tour the end of July. I am really excited to be apart of this great group of ladies. They are so encouraging. Speaking of updates. This is more of a reminder. Today is the last day to sign up for the DSP Stationary set Class scheduled for Thursday, June 25th at 6:30 at the Ink SPoT. Here is an example of the box we will be making, it holds six matching cards and envelopes. Fun project. I have room for 2-3 more ladies, so call or email me if you are interested. Got go now. Have a blessed day. Stay cool!

The Rest of the Story

Ah, don't you just miss Paul Harvey, "Now for the rest of the story". Well, here is the rest of my last post. I am still struggling with getting pictures to do what I want. Yesterday I even played with the Html code. That didn't help! I had a couple more pictures of the girls and a card I made for them. I am trying to get my last fix on the retiring colors. I have really loved them this year. Since, we were talking about "my little fishes" I made a card with the Just Beachy stamp set. I really like this set. Simple card -the white cardstock is wheeled with See you around jumbo wheel which is retiring this year, then I used a piece of DSP in Pacific Blue. The Hugs and Kisses stamp is embossed with white embossing powder, the fish and Popsicle are colored with a blender pen using Tangerine Tango and Baja Breeze classic ink! Okay, half the month is over. There are only 14 days left to place an order off the Last Chance List, don't want to long you don't want to miss out on that favorite stamp set that is moving to Stampers Paradise or maybe Florida! Gotta run, Love yall, go bless sombody's socks off!

Terrific Tuesday

Hi Girls, It has been a great day here in Dixieland. Hot, Hot, Hot! They are predicitng 100 degree temps tomorrow and Thursday and it "ain't even summer yet!" Me and the Future Stampers of America (Cadie and Haley, 2 yrs.old now) have been spending alot of time in the pool. "Wimm, CeCe wimm" is Cadie's first sentence when she arrives each morning about 7:30. And after breakfast wimm we do. They look like little fish, or maybe turtles! So, I am showing yall pictures to day! Also, as you can see I have been crowned and I am really excited!!!! The banner is not there yet, but hopefully before long. This is Cadie. Haley didn't make it into the swimming pictures. Have a blessed day GRITS (Girls Raised In The South)and go bless somebody else!

Exciting Day!

Good afternoon ladies! I had hoped to be saying good morning but that didn't happen. Today is an exciting day for a couple of reasons for me. First, Michelle Laycock of Laycock designs is working on a new banner for my blog. I am very excited about this. I have worked on this for some time and have admitted total defeat! Michelle's work is beautiful and I am thrilled to have her design my new banner. You can see her gallery here. Also, I am being crowned a princess! That should also be happening today! You will need to keep checking back to see the results of these two events. I can't wait!!!! I have a DSP stationary set to show yall. I am doing a stamp camp June 25 at the INK SPoT teaching how to make these great little gifts. This one was for one of my daughter,Lee's friends for graduation. Therefore, it held mostly thank-you notes. I learned to make these from Angie Juda of Chic n' Scratch. They are really cute and easy too! This one uses the textured DSP Slumber Party which is retiring at the end of June. Don't miss it.Better run, Love yall and be blessed by blessing others around you!

Cute Little Treat Bag

Any one who knows me, knows I love to give out treats, i.e. warm fuzzies, happys, unexpected goodies. My youngest daughter's friends growing up called me "Treat Mommy". Probably not the most acclaimed title. Well, paper crafting and stamping serve me well in this role. Here is an example of the cutest little treat holder. It will hold 2 Ghirardelli chocolates, and a handful of Kisses, M&M'S, Reese's pieces, you get the idea. I really love that it is made out of a 5.5 x 4.25 piece of cardstock. Then it only takes scraps of DSP and ribbon to embellish the front and back. Very quick and easy. This one is made from the In Color Baja Breeze which is retiring in just a couple of weeks, so if you want some, place and online order quickly of call or email me by this Saturday as I will be placing an order Saturday evening on Sunday. Now, I gotta run-Go be a blessing to someone today.

An Old Favorite Retires

Heartfelt Thanks is retiring this year. It has been a part of the Demo Kit since before I became a part of this wonderful family of friends. If this is a set you would really like to own, you have until the end of June and then it becomes history. This sample was made by my 10/15 Hostess club last month. It was created by my upline and friend Angie Brailsford. The cardstock is Pink Pirouette, Riding Hood Red, and Whisper White. The red check DSP is from Bella Rose. This is an example of 2-step stamping. This is really a very versatile set, so don't miss out on it. You can always call or email me, or place an online order at my Stampin' Up website, http://www.cindywaldroff.stampinup.net/ . Thank you for your encouragement and support. I hope to be a blessing to each of you as we go out together to bless those around us.
