Freshly Made Sketches and Vendor Event

Hello everyone,

Just came back from having an awesome time at MOPS Vendor's Blender Event. I was invited to participate together with an awesome group of ladies from different direct sales company united with the purpose of blessing and encouraging mothers of preschoolers as the beginning of the school year starts.

I met beautiful ladies who love to craft but find no time for it. I presented my favorite kit My Paper Pumpkin and also a bit of Project Life. It was a blessing indeed. Looking forward to meet with many of these ladies soon and explore the possibilities with Stampin'Up!

I also got a stamp set out this week that I haven't ink in "ages". It is the lovely Bootiful Stamp Set.
I found this super cute sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #151 and fell in love with it.
What do you think?
Check it out and try it here!

I am so glad this stamp set is in the catalog. I have a friend who has been in pain for several days now. I sent her a card with this set…I chose a different one, brighter! I will show you that one on Tuesday. 

Bootiful Occasions

I haven't been playing much with challenges, it was so refreshing to visit this site and be inspired. Thanks creative ladies at Freshly Made Sketches!

Creative Blessings!

Envelope Punch Tool: Inspired by Creative Donna

This beautiful card was my inspiration when I started making these type of File Folder cards. I actually got this on the mail for my birthday from my sweet CD (Creative Donna).

Thanks Donna!

Stampin'UP! This and That: #100THANKFULDAYS

Hello my dear friends,

I started a Thankfulness Journal! I came up with the idea of dedicating 100 days to be thankful and find the beauty in each and every day. So here I'm sharing a few of my days already journaled.

I plan to start to do this with my kids this week. I got them each a Retro Fresh Journal Bundle. It comes with the journal, stickers and washi tape for nay $17.50. Eeek! We all need to practice thankfulness.

Join me sharing your fun #100thankfuldays here below…you may link as many times as you would like. Feel free to use whatever you have at hand. I will refer back to this post for linking purposes and will keep you posted every week with my own pages. 

Let the thankful days begin!!

To decorate the front of my journal I traced the already debosed camera and then added a few die cuts made with my On Film Framelits. A bit of thick Baker's Twine and Word Bubbles framelits with Just Sayin' stamp set. 

Love this pic of my baby boy. I started by thanking the Lord for this sweet boy. I jounced all the sweet things he says to me daily like "You are the best mom…" on the back of that cute tag made with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. Trying to keep it simple.

On the left I gave thanks for things that make me happy! A done workout, orange (rug), a clean house (rug) and the Word…lifts me up indeed.

On the right I gave thanks for new friends to go out with and enjoy life. What a refreshing blessing!

Left: Giving thanks for this little girl. She is funny, loud, brave and way too social. Haha! So much to be grateful about I wrote it behind the tag. I like hiding my journaling most times. Haha!

Right: Always thankful for an amazing man God gave me. He is my best half. Love him tons!

TIP TIP TIP: In order to create quickly several pages at a time, I meditate during the day on what I am grateful for this day, then make a note on my phone and take a picture (unless I already have one). When I find a short time I print my pictures in my home printer…3-5 at a time and do my pages as simple as possible using what I placed in my little thankful basket. I will take a pic and show u my tiny basket next time.
