Still Time to Sign Up for Saturday's Stamp Camp!

Saturday's Stamp Camp will feature three 3D projects with three matching cards--all designed so that you can complete three gifts perfect for a mom, dad or grad. (If you wish, you could change a sentiment and make your gifts birthday gifts, as well.)


The first gift, perfect for mom, is a favor box filled with small note cards for her to give, along with a matching Mother's Day card.


The second, a message center, will be perfect for the grad who will be off to college next year, and the card sentiment--"It's time to bloom!" -- reminds grads that this is just another stop on their journey.


The third, a handmade box filled with candy, will work perfect for the dad in your life. The matching card has a masculine look.


Join me Saturday any time between 10 and 4; plan to spend about three hours making your projects. Let me know if you're coming! :)

Time for Flowers!

The last few weeks have been hectic, keeping me indoors while I desperately want to play outside in the sunshine. I can't wait for the flowers in my yard to come up, and I'm anxious to dig my hands into the dirt and plant. But April in Minnesota is still a little early to do too much planting, even if the temps have been perfect.


So this month is all about spring for Stampin' Up! We're playing with flowers all month long, and I'm featuring a new set, Awash with Flowers, at my Stamp Camp on April 17. Stamp Camp will be held at my house this time--17 Camelot Drive, Mankato--because of a scheduling conflict with other venues. We'll be there from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and you can stop by any time to make your three cards and three 3-D projects, perfect for giving to mom, dad, or the grad in your life this spring. Cost is $20, and prepayment is appreciated to guarantee your spot. Plan to spend about three hours making your projects.


You can also find me at the Minnesota State University-Mankato Centennial Student Union on Sunday, April 25, for MamaPalooza, a showcase featuring items for and from mothers.


I'm going to the Regional Seminar for Stampin' Up! on April 10 in Milwaukee, and I'm excited to find out what new projects and ideas are in store for me. I'll be passing on my new knowledge to you!


And Congratulations to Mavis R., who won the drawing for mystery hostess benefits last month at our virtual workshop! Yay, Mavis!!


Happy Spring!
