It’s time for the All Star Blog Hop where we are featuring the Flowering Fields Suite! Be ready to be immersed in this beautiful suite with all that we have to share.
My window cards feature the Stamparatus Wreath Technique. And they were so much fun to make.
A few hours ago I shared live on YouTube and on Facebook step-by-step directions for making these amazing cards. I used products from the Flowering Fields Suite (the Tulip Fields and Flowering Tulips Stamp Sets, Windmill Fields Dies, and Flowering Fields Designer Paper) along with a few other coordinating Stampin’ Up!® products. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Sorry that it got cut off at the end.

For those of you who have been curious…Here are the before and after photos of our upstairs bathroom makeover. It’s all done, and I absolutely love it!
We are still in the midst of remodeling though. So it’s still a little chaotic and dusty here at our house. I’ll share before and after of our main level when that’s completed (end of June is our hope).

There are only a few days left of the current 2021-22 Annual Catalog. And things that are on the Last Chance List will be gone for good come May 3rd when the new 2022-23 Annual Catalog begins.
Two of those items are boxes that are perfect for transporting Random Acts of Kindness (RAK) cards. My cards stay protected in my purse. And when I want to leave a note for someone while I’m out and about, I just pull a card from the box and jot down my thank you.
Below are a few sets of these RAK cards I made with the New Horizons Designer Paper after getting a gift from fellow demonstrator, Leslie Francis. Here is her gift. I love how she recycled and used a plastic chewing gum container for her box.
Obviously I was very inspired by her gift and used the same beautiful papers. I kept the cards super simple like the ones I shared on December 17th though.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Here is the first set. There are no matching envelopes since I cut these cards to fit into the Sweet Little Boxes box (which I also decorated in a simple way knowing it would be jostled around in my purse). I could make some, but envelopes aren’t really needed sometimes.
The Basic White card bases are 2-1/4″ x 6-1/2″ folded in half at 3-1/4″. The Basic Black layers are 2-1/8″ x 3-1/8″. And the designer paper layers are 2″ x 3″ which means you can get 6 from one 6″ x 6″. All of the papers decorating these cards are from just one sheet in this set. Three are from one side and three are from the design on the other side. Fun, right?
Here is the second set I made. This set of cards paired with mini envelopes is in a 3-1/8″ x 3-1/8″ Acetate Box (one of the Last Chance products) which is decorated only with a bit of Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon (one of the Last Chance products that has sold out already sad to say).
The Basic White card bases are 3″ x 6″ folded in half at 3″. The Basic Black layers are 2″ x 3″. And the designer paper layers are 1-7/8″ x 3″ which means again you can get 6 from one 6″ x 6″. All of the papers decorating these cards are also from just one sheet in this set. Five are from one side and one is from the design on the other side.
With a clear box, the RAK cards inside are the decoration seen on the outside as well.
The sentiments and images stamped in black in these first two sets are from the On the Horizon Stamp Set. But I branched out for the images/sentiments decorating this last RAK card set. For this one I used sentiments from the Happy & Heartfelt set. And the images from both the Grassy Grove and Paradise Palms sets.
I have these Basic White Note Cards/Envelopes protected within a Mini Paper Pumpkin Box (one of the Last Chance products) with no outside decoration. Because again…I intend to carry these cards with me in my purse.
The Basic White card bases are 5″ x 7″ folded in half at 3-1/2″ and they come pre-cut and scored to this size in the note card set. The Basic Black layers are 3-1/8″ x 3-1/8″. And the designer paper layers are 3″ x 3″ which means you can get 4 from one 6″ x 6″. All of the papers decorating these eight cards are from just two sheets.
I hope you were inspired!
My oldest son Nick and his girlfriend Jaylene attended prom last night! Too fun!! Here are a few photos we took at the start of the evening. They had a wonderful time…fun memories made.

Have you purchased the fun Celebrate Today Magnet Board Kit from the Stampin’ Up! Kits Collection yet? These two images show the supplies from this kit…
…and what the supplies in the kit can create.
I added a bit of extra cardstock, some envelopes, the new Happiness Abounds Stamp Set and ink, the Bough Punch, and some Iridescent Rhinestones and turned the supplies from this kit around to make a simpler more personalized magnet board, a 12×12 scrapbook page layout, and 15 greeting cards! It’s a beautiful project as intended. But I couldn’t help myself and had fun changing it up.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions all the projects I came up with. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

As many of you know we are getting rooms in our house remodeled. I have yet to share with you before and after photos of our bathroom because it’s not quite done yet. A couple things needed to be re-done. I will share those photos soon.
But we are already going forward with our main level remodel project. And as I mentioned in the video, we are going to have some BIG changes. Tear down began on Monday of this week!
Lucky and I love all the action. Here he is supervising the work. The plan is to have this whole level done by the end of June. So we are crossing our fingers that there are no delays in products and supplies.

MY FAVORITE EXTRAS I’ve added a new section to my website titled My Favorite Extras. This is where you can find direct links to other products (from Amazon, Stamp-n-Storage, The Country Hive, etc.) that I love, use, and share about.
This Million Sales Retreat event was held March 9-13, 2022 for me and 16 other achieving demonstrators.
It was an amazing experience! We were spoiled in many ways…air travel (first class), a luxury hotel stay, pre-travel & pillow gifts, fun experiences, lots of wonderful meals together, lots of time at the home office, and many opportunities to visit together with each other and with those at Stampin’ Up!.
Below are photos from this amazing experience. I’m starting with photos from the event/retreat. Then at the bottom are photos from the days leading up to it…the sites Tim and I saw (since we flew out early).
Wed., March 9: We arrived at the Grand America Hotel in the early afternoon (this was our room!) and spent time visiting with Lisa, Bob, Alexandra, Sven, Irene, and Joe.
That evening all the achievers were treated to dinner at From Scratch. We sat with Jessica & Donnie.
Thurs., March 10: Achievers and guests were transported to the home office in Riverton. Here we were welcomed with beautiful floral bouquets (all personalized) and lots of cheering from those at Stampin’ Up!.
The decorations were amazing! Even the water bottles were done up in our honor.
We were given a tour, opportunities to meet & visit, and a beautiful lunch with desserts from local bakers.
Donna and Dave are two of my favorite people.
Here are more beautiful friends. Natalie took this selfie above. And here we are with Logan, Sandi and Bob.
Lots of special photos were taken in front of this backdrop. But my hubby and I had to get one of our own, too.
That evening (back in Salt Lake City) dinner was on our own. So we joined Erika, Ted, Angie, Dave, Lisa and Bob for dinner at Valter’s. And on the walk back to the hotel we stopped at a bar to have drinks. Cheers!
Fri., March 11: Achievers returned to the Riverton home office for more fun: product peeks, stamping time, and education & insight into other specific areas of interest. Here I am on the bus with Robyn. Sara photo bombed us. Too funny!
Four artists from the home office shared with Angie, Laura and I how they transform products from ideas into reality in the Product Strategy presentation. I’m next to Jen who helped me create my “million dollar” stamp set (debuting in about year!).
I then Robyn, Lisa, Dawn, Sandy and I enjoyed stamping time with Shelli & Sara. We were also allowed to look through the new 2022-23 Annual Catalog (coming soon)!
After lunch (with more amazing people but I forgot to snap a photo), Product Sneak Peek was next on my agenda. Jen and Kristy shared with Angie, Robyn and I LOTS of new goodies. I’m so excited for what’s around the corner!
My last session was a one-on-one with Andrew discussing my absolute favorite lines: Paper Pumpkin and the Kits Collection.
Guests had free time this day. So Tim joined the guys that we had dinner with the night before, and they spent the afternoon golfing.
The evening ended in a very creative and fun way…with a Mystery Murder dinner. The costumes that many wore were SOooooo amazing!
Look at these great costumes: Dawn and Richard (above)…Sara, Shannon, Brian and Natalie (below).
Sat., March 12: This was our excursion day. Some achievers visited the spa. Some enjoyed shopping in Salt Lake. And some enjoyed Snowshoeing in Park City. You can see what Tim and I picked. It was such a beautiful day, and I had a blast (I LOVE snowshoeing). The scenery was gorgeous, too!
Our group from left to right: Irene, Joe, Alexandra, Sven, Erika, Ted, Donnie, Jessica, Natalie, Susan Elise, Diane, and then me and Tim squatting in the front.
Afterwards we were taken back to Salt Lake to rest, get a bite to eat and clean up. Mid-afternoon we all gathered and were brought to Park City for shopping time…
…and a farewell dinner at the Riverhorse on Main restaurant.
Sun., March 13: This was our departure day. We had breakfast with Natalie, John, Alexandra, Sven, Irene, and Joe. This was the day we got our last gift. Look at all these boxes!! (Each of our gift tags and packaging for the gifts at the retreat coordinated with the cards we received initially when we reached our milestones.)
Here are pics of the other gifts given to us before and then during the retreat. (Our bouquets, bags and wallets were all different.)
Some of us achievers exchanged cards/gifts, too. Here are the fun goodies that were gifted to me.
Sat., March 5-9: As I mentioned before…Tim and I flew out early. We spent March 5-9 at a beautiful, spacious Airbnb in Washington, Utah. It even had a back yard with a grill, a fire pit and a hot tub. But the majority of our time was spent exploring nearby parks: Zion National Park March 6th…
…Snow Canyon State Park March 7th…
…and Bryce Canyon National Park March 8th.
What an amazing, unforgettable week! A big thank you to all of you who have purchased Stampin’ Up! products from me these past 22 years. YOU helped me to earn this, and I am so very grateful to you!

I received several hand made Christmas cards this year. So I photographed many of them so I could show them off to you. Maybe you will get some creative inspiration from them.
I didn’t have the time to give credit to all that made them. But I thank you if you were someone that sent one my way. Here they are…
And then I thought I’d share a few more photos from our December fun.
On Christmas day, we had my side of the family over. Everyone was able to attend, but I didn’t do a great job at getting good photos of everyone. We were all very grateful that my mom and dad (pictured below with my sister, my husband, and my nephew) were able to drive the 4 hours to be with us all.
Here is sweet little Simonne (my brother’s youngest daughter) pulling off the curly strands from the ribbon on one of her gifts.
And these are a couple photos I took the night before, on Christmas Eve: Lucky, our cat…
…and our Christmas tree after Santa made his stop.
It’s hard to believe another Christmas has passed. That always makes me a bit sad. So my goal now is to see if I can convince my husband to leave the decorations up a bit longer. How long do you think they should stay up?

A PEEK AT JANUARY’S PAPER PUMPKIN KIT The Kisses & Hugs Paper Pumpkin Kit will help you express that forever kind of love with 10 heart-shaped cards (5 each of 2 designs) that would make Cupid jealous. But this kit is not bound to just Valentine’s Day, it works for all love occasions year-round like anniversaries, weddings, birthdays, or those “just because” days. Check out the teaser video to get a taste of what’s included. Coordinating colors: Blushing Bride, Flirty Flamingo, Gray Granite, Very Vanilla. If you are not a Paper Pumpkin subscriber, I invite you to give it a try. CLICK HERE to learn more. CLICK HERE to sign up by January 10th for this next kit.
The Kisses & Hugs Mini Treat Boxes (item 160147) are an exciting add-on to this month’s kit! This is a chance to create stylish treat boxes to match the heart-shaped cards in the kit. The Kisses & Hugs Mini Treat Boxes are sold separately starting 25 January and only available to active Paper Pumpkin subscribers while supplies last.

Our youngest, Luke (on the left) is now a 9th grader. And our oldest, Nick (on the right) is now a 10th grader. Can you believe it?! For those of you who have followed my blog since I started it in January of 2013, click here and here to compare what these guys looked like back then. Crazy how fast they have grown. I am now officially the smallest in my house (if we don’t count Lucky our cat).
A huge thank you goes out to the talented Simona Boler from Simona B Photography for these recent family photos!
