Welcome to week two of my month long challenge. Day 8
I am so grateful for the many opportunities I have with my business to inspire others with stamp sets, ink pads and card stock.
About three or four Mondays monthly I go teach an hour card making with some ladies at a retirement center in town called Villa Hermosa. It is so fun helping them create their very first card and seeing the excitement on their faces! I have met some wonderful ladies thru this fun experience. That hour goes by so quickly. I had a brand new lady today make her first card!
One of the kits that the retirement center bought for the class is the Oh Happy Day Kit. It is perfect for them as they like to make all kinds of cards depending on what occasion they want to make cards for.
Stamp and stick—that’s all it takes to create stack of all-occasion cards. Make one card when you need it, or make them all and use them later. Folded card size: 4″ x 3-1/2″, 3″ x 3″, 5″ x 3-1/2″, 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ (10.2 x 8.9 cm, 7.6 x 7.6 cm, 12.7 x 8.9 cm, 14 x 10.8 cm). Adhesive sold separately. Instructions included.
Kit includes * Set of 13 photopolymer stamps * 20 card bases and coordinating envelopes * Giftable kraft box * Die-cut glittered chipboard shapes * Embossed sheets * Printed die-cut images * Die-cut gold foil sheet * Die-cut white sheets * Basic Black Archival Stampin’ Spot * Printed color doilies * Baker’s Twine * Glittered dots * Stampin’ Dimensionals * Acrylic stamp block
Thanks for coming back to Day 7 of my challenge. If you have missed any posts this past week I invite you to catch up what I have been posting for the last 7 days. Variety of topics and I hope you enjoy them all.
I used to do this type of post on Sundays but it has been a long time.
It goes with what I am grateful today. That is my faith! As I have shared this week about some losses in my family goes hand in hand with today’s thoughts. Without my faith loosing my dad and then loosing one of my brothers so soon after it would have made me bitter. I have always believed things happen for a reason.
I turn to music a lot to help me get thru some hard times for myself or family and friends going thru something. This particular song has helped me personally so many times. I remember singing it to my brother in February and it was such a special time for us that day. I was singing thru my tears.
Next week come back and I will be sharing my story on how I began making cards!
Also next week going to share some fun pictures from some awesome trips I have went on just by sharing my passion with others and inspiring my team as much as I can to share their passion too!
Today I am grateful for the cooler mornings here in Tucson to take my dog to the dog park before it gets too hot. Funny story yesterday I shut my door and realized I had the mail key instead of my house key. Thankful my son and daughter in law live very close and was able to walk and get his key so I could get back inside. It was already hot by then. No walk to the park. I made it up to Meeko today though. It was great to enjoy the weather and we both got exercise.
Today to inspire you I am sharing this beautiful card from a fellow demonstrator!
Come back tomorrow to see what I post about.
Thanks!
