Hmmmm I thought....what did I order? Then I remembered I ordered a couple of CUTE maxi dresses from a cute online boutique (I hope they fit) but they were coming UPS and not through the mail...hmmm ok, what else? I couldn't recall ordering any stamp stuff...but I won't tell you how many times I've ordered and forgot, lol! So, when I got it out of the mailbox I saw it WAS from SU and not an order but directly from SU. Then I got a little nervous because I thought hmmmm...maybe this is how they are notifying the Artisan finalists, eek! I doubted it but I couldn't imagine what it could be. So once I finally opened it (of course I couldn't get it open and couldn't find any tools to help, lol) I found the SWEETEST thing inside.
Someone from the home office must have seen my post about what a goof I was on vacation where I lost a bunch of stuff including my coveted mini catalog (or seasonal catalog...I need to figure out what exactly we are calling it now, lol) and they sent me a new one PLUS a new regular catalog, Spanish catalog, and the magazine that came with the mini! THIS, right here is why I LOVE Stampin' Up! So, to my "Secret Santa" THANK YOU! The past month or so has been pretty rough for a number of reasons so it was so nice to get a little pick me up! This card is for YOU!
Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps: Lots of thanks, really good greetings, sweet essentials (I think I used a retired one too but can't remember now and I'm not in my craft room....)
Paper: Whisper white, coastal cabana
Ink: Coastal cabana, crisp cantaloupe, strawberry slush
Accessories: None :-)
I saw a card like this with a different theme on Pinterest and thought I'd like to make my own. You could make this for any occasion...or you can if you're a hoarder of greetings like I am....).
And again, thanks to whoever sent me the catalogs!
Happy stamping!

ReplyDeleteI love it when someone goes out of their way to something nice. They didn't want any credit, just wanted to a smile on someone's face. What if we all did that regularly. Wouldn't the world be a happier, kinder place.
ReplyDeleteNow to the card you made. I love it. All those bright thank yous stamped along the edge. It's perfect. I hope your secret person sees it. :)
