Farewell My Stamping Friends!

Hello Stamping Friends,

As you can see there have not been any posts here for several weeks.  I have made the decision to 'retire' after 25 years in the amazing world of paper crafting.

My Instagram and Facebook business pages have been taken down but I am leaving my blog up so that ideas can be referenced and most shopping links are still working.

Thanks for joining me all these years!

Take care,

Becky

Tiered Tray LOVE

Quite literally Tiered Tray LOVE here with this love themed card.

I used the Tiered Tray Collection Dies with a little help from Parcel & Post Heart Decorations.  That is where the LOVE letters and hearts come from.  

The envelopes and flowers are from Parcel & Post Mailbox Etched Dies, and letter is from Parcel & Post Sentiments.  

All the sets with smaller dies and sentiments work so well together.

Idaho Custom Creations February Kit and New Signs

The Idaho Custom Creations February Tiered Tray Kit is EASTER!  

Since this is the second year going through all the holidays, she didn't want to do traditional Easter again, so she chose bunnies and coffee.  I love the fun twist on the Easter bunny.

My tray is from Felt Creative Home Goods and can be found HERE.

As a reminder, the kit comes unfinished and with everything you need to complete it, including paint.  It is a monthly subscription through Idaho Custom Creations.  Michelle owns the company, I just paint for her and enjoy all her products!

She offers the subscription kit as well as regular products for sale in her shop, and she takes custom orders. 

The kit comes with these colors of paint, but I used my own.

I will link my colors here in case you want the exact same.

Warm White

Banana Cream

Coral Blush

Bahama Blue

Traditional Burnt Umber

Here are the pieces in this months kit and below are close up photos of each.

New jar fillers/bowl filler for St. Partick's Day, Valentine's Day and Easter.  

I freaking love the jelly beans!!

Jaded Blossom January Release

Just when you thought the year of gnome add-ons was over...they've decided to continue!  They have been so wildly popular for Jaded Blossom, they just couldn't end it!

Please scroll to the bottom of this post for a personal note.

As a reminder, these are add ons for the Boy Gnome Dies and Girl Gnome Dies.

Also, there are more items in the release, this are just what I am highlighting, so be sure to head over there and check it all out HERE. 

This new Build a Booth Die is so fun and perfect for an A2 card size!  The Build A Booth Valentine Add Ons turns it from a Ticket Booth to a Kissing Booth. 

The background is the new Lip Stencil.

Do you remember those big wax lips we used to get at Valentine's?  That is what this reminds me of as she is holding up her lip on a stick. 😍

I added a heart to her hat and the background is the XO in the Gnome Dies: Sweethearts Add Ons.

Hey stamping friends, my Instagram account has been hacked, taken down and held for ransom.  I've reported to Instagram with screen shots of the e-mails I have received and am waiting to see if they can help restore it.  It doesn't sound promising, but I am remaining hopeful.  And before you ask...yes, even with the 2 Factor Authentication, they got ahold of my account.

To Instagrams credit, they did send me an e-mail letting me know suspicious activity was detected, but it was at 3 am and I was sound asleep.  I checked my account first thing and it was already gone.

If any of you know how you get Instagrams attention or have an e-mail for a contact other than the standard help desk message, please reply to this newsletter and let me know.

Thank you!!
