Inspired by my Colorado Sister

You read that right ... inspiration is everywhere!  When I hit a brick wall I know that my sister will give me just the push I need to find a little MoJo.  I am not referring to a Stampin' Up sister (not yet anyway!) but my amazingly talented sister Marie!  I was working on a card for an upcoming workshop in a couple of weeks and kept saying to myself, "it's missing something".  I took a break and jumped on Facebook for a minute.  Sure enough there was a post sharing a card she had made in her Creative Cave.  As I looked at her creation, I realized that all I needed to add was a little something on the inside of the card.  The result was a true transformation!

Be sure to check out my sisters block and enjoy her creativity!  http://isomcre8tions.blogspot.com

Hartford Regionals ... share and update

 

I am so excited that the Hartford Regionals are just around the corner.  I have been looking forward to getting away after much stress and health issues over the past month.  There is nothing to lift one's spirits than being surrounded by an extended Stampin' Up family.  If you are attending ... let me know and we can look each other up!

I've been crazy busy lately.  I was honored to be asked to make wedding cards for a woman  I met through a mutual friend.  How exciting that was.  Then I finished card fronts and some 3d items for Regionals.  Now to come up with an idea for some graduation invitations (anyone want to share some fabulous ideas?), and some Easter gifts!  I am planning a scrapbook night with some girls on April 6th and this will be our first gathering.  I'm a bit nervous but confident that I can put something together.
