Stampin' Red

Spring Card

Hello Everyone,

Well, since the snow has cramped all our plans here in Maryland I have been getting a lot of stamping done.  Today I made a very springy card since the 30 inches of snow in front of my house have been starring back at me since Friday. 

We haven't seen a snow plow yet and to our surprise on the nightly news tonight we saw my in-laws house!  It was because they lost power on Friday and they were reporting on areas without power.  My in-laws finally moved to my sister-in-laws yesterday since it was too cold.  We would have had them here except they couldn't get to us.  We have no way to get them here.  Funny thing the news then reported on another part of Montgomery County without power and it's a road in our neighborhood.  Actually only 10 houses down our street!  We are truly lucky that we have kept our power through the Blizzard of 2010!  Fingers crossed since we are expecting another 15 inches or so Tuesday into Wednesday and the wind is suppose to kick up.  I'm dreaming of Spring! Here is a 4x4 card.

Stampin' Up! Borders and Corner Punches Video

Hello Everyone,

Well it's been very snowy here in Silver Spring, MD.  We are enjoying being snowed in.  I could have gone out and started shoveling the driveway today or taking the yard stick and measuring the snow, which by the looks of it is closer to 3 feet.  OR I could decide to stay in and stamp.  Hmm....can you guess what I did?  That's right...I stamped.  I will have a lot to show you over the next couple of weeks.  Can't wait to stamp tomorrow too.  That is before the Superbowl comes on...I just love to watch for the new commercials.  I hope they have good ones that make you laugh out loud.  That's probably the only time I ever watch commercials since the invention of TIVO. 

I'm happy to share with you the new video Stampin' Up! has posted for everyone.  Bonnie Thurber is a hoot as she explains the corner punches and border punches. 

Enjoy, Corene 

Local Card Club February

Hello Ladies,

Due to the expected 2 feet of snow....I'm gonna go ahead and cancel Friday sessions and Sunday sessions.  I will keep the Monday sessions open in case we are all able to get around town.  Although, Steve just pointed out that parking may be difficult since the streets were only one-way throughout the neighborhood after the December Storm. 

So many variables... My weekend the next weekend is filled with stamping events and family parties.  I will put on the calendar Monday Feb 15th evening hours, Friday Feb 19th evening hours, as alternate dates for card club.  We will just put our club orders in when we can. 

Thanks for understanding this month! 

Hope you have some happy stampin' time in the snow!  Go to the current Card Club Blog to View your Card Club Cards for this month!

Stamping Always,
