MayvMac Epic Fight 2017 So sad. Goodbye Ruby! Newbie MN State Fair Surgery Part 1 One evening a week ago, we had a somewhat quiet evening in the house. Hubs went off to run errands I cannot do yet, son was studying (playing games more likely) and I thought, I have not done any Project Life scrapbook pages since May I think. Maybe not, but close. My time ended up being interrupted by LIFE, but I still got 6 pages done, not sharing the other two yet. I still want to write up much more on my surgery. This page is pretty much just leading up to surgery. I may not share my entire journey on social media, I am not sure. I have been pretty open about it, hoping that it helps someone else. Then again, maybe it is worth sharing. I will need to get those pages done soon. I have a lot to get caught up from this summer, two trips and a few other noteworthy activities and events. I am still working on our big California trip from June 2016. That I am completing in My Digital...

There is no reason you need to assemble it per the instructions. Use your own creativ...

This adorable and versatile stamp set is only available for a short while. Until October 31st to be exact. You can get it FREE for hosting or placing a qualifying order (of at least $300).. Thats it. There is no item number as it will automatically be included in your order or your party order. There is no limit to how many you can get either. It is a two step stamp set. You get an outline stamp (deer, candle, words) and a filler image that coordinates seamlessly with the outlined image. Watch the video above to learn more. I personally will be placing an order this week to make sure I get my own Merry Patterns stamp set. How will you get your stamp set FREE?   Host a party (online or in person), place a qualifying order? Plan ahead. Because once this promotion is over, this stamp set is gone forever. And those candles and that deer can certainly be used outside of the holiday season. Even the word SEASON could be used elsewhere. Shop Now...

View Friday's Live at 5! I am still working on figuring out how to upload my Live casts to Youtube. If you have experience doing so, please message me at  needsaribbon@gmail.com Today I discussed our punches and how we have stamp sets, in some cases, several stamp sets that are designed to coordinate with punches. That makes them super versatile and should be found in every crafters tool box.  Feel free to download the document below. It lists all our punches, and the stamp sets that were designed to coordinate with them.  F'YI I have a large collection of helpful documents listed under my Tool Box Tab at the top of the page. It may include tips for putting together some of Stampin' Up!s kits, and much more. I am always adding documents. For mobile users,  scroll to the bottom and click on VIEW DESKTOP. That will take you to the non-mobile formatted website.  L ink to Punches and coordinating Stamp Sets PDF

I put together a short video of some of the products available in the Holiday 2017 Catalog from Stampin' Up! Products are available until December 31, 2017. Thanks for stopping by today! I hope this video inspires you to start planning your fall projects today! ~Sandy

I love this zippy video about the Holiday 2017 catalog.

To serve you better while I recover from knee revision surgery I am going to do Facebook Live videos three times a week at 5:00 pm CST. I still cannot get down the stairs very well to get to my studio. Once I am there I am okay at getting around. And getting back up the stairs has become easier. So I haven't done much creating outside of swaps last two months. And I feel bad I haven't had much to share, or haven't had an easy way to share with you. I like sharing with you. Here is the link to my Facebook Business page . Be sure to join in or watch it later. I am still learning how to manage this, which I am sure will in itself, provide some entertainment value. Join me this Friday, September 22nd. No topic yet. I may not decide until I go LIVE. We will see. I may just talk, or share some projects, or demonstrate something. Tune in to find out what I decide. See ya on Facebook on Friday. ~Sandy
