Mailable Monday - Another Display Stample

Hi stampers!  I guess it's time for another edition of Mailable Monday although around here I think it's more like mopey Monday :(  I should be happy as 96 choco donut k-cups showed up on Friday when I got home from my mom's house, hehe!  And you would THINK that I would be stamping and blogging up a storm with all my extra time but the fact is it just hasn't happened.  I've done a whole lot of nothing really.  Guess I'm in a bit of a slump but I'm going to try to work on it this week.  And who knows...maybe the coffee will help!  If only IT could do the laundry and clean the house.....

We still aren't having any luck in the baby department so I'm guessing that's a big part of my problem.  Especially when finding out a friend is pregnant and while I'm happy for them I'm still sad for me and it makes me feel like a terrible person for not being as happy for them as I should or whatever you want to call it.  Anyway...this too shall pass.  Some weeks are hard and some are no problem......  What's your trick if you're feeling uninspired?  For this morning, I'm going to try to make a card quickly while my breakfast (and that wonderful coffee) digest before I go out for a run!  Wish me luck!

Anyway, I'll try to post more!  For now, I'll leave you with another sample I made for convention.  We got the chalk talk set of course and also the tag a bag accessory kit which I tried to incorporate on a few of my cards.  The kit is not only perfect for those cute bags and boxes it's sold with but can be used in a million different ways like on this card!



And don't forget about the FREE video class I'm offering!  You can find details HERE!  All you have to do is place a qualifying order and I'll show you how to make the cutest Halloween banner!  I'll be offering more as soon as I get my act together.  You can look for a Christmas banner class in October!  I'm also going to be offering a loyalty/rewards program for shopping with me and possibly an online club too with access to special projects and an exclusive club blog!  If you have questions about either one of those please email me!  MindyBackes@gmail.com

  2. What a fun card!!! I'm sorry that your baby dreams haven't happened yet. I can only imagine the feelings from watching friends and family struggle with similar issues. Your feelings are so so real and legit, don't feel bad. I hope your dreams soon become a reality!!

  3. Hang in there Mindy. It is okay to be happy for your friends AND sad for your own situation. Feelings are meant to be felt and no matter how unpleasant, the feeling won't kill you. You are a wonderful person and it is hard to want something you are not in control of "getting". Chin up Buttercup! Enjoy your coffee.

Thanks for your comments. I probably won't respond unless you ask a direct question (because I know my limits, lol) but I read and appreciate every single one <3
