Hi Everyone,

Valentine's Day is soon to come and love is in the air. My friends helped me get going on the treat bags for my daughter's dance company and people at work. I hope you enjoy these fun bags. The paper isn't from Stampin' Up! I didn't have any Valentine DSP, so I had to go and buy from the outside. SHH don't tell on me :) Enjoy the fun.










Another fun thing is that my sister-n-law came by and shared some swaps from leadership and other swapping groups. I thought you might like a few more Valentine samples. Enjoy.



My Sister-n-law's card. I love it!










LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this card!



I know there are some samples you love too. Comment back and let me know. I'm happy to send you out any catalogs you might want. Stampin' Up! has their annual Sale-a-Bration going on right now through March. Contact me for your party or order today.

Happy Stampin',
Mary

HI Everyone,

What a rainy time here is the great Northwest. Perfect for staying in and crafting. I love the Sale-a-Bration time that Stampin' Up! offers. Great product to earn, especially this year. I had fun creating a couple of projects with Balloon Bash from the Occasions Catalog Irresistibly Yours Specialty Designer Series Paper from the Sale-a-Bration catalog. The white paper with a glossy white pattern is perfect for coloring using a variety of techniques. The pattern is revealed when color is applied. I hope you enjoy my samples. I will post a video soon on this fun technique. Visit me a www.maryblocher.stampinup.net for my calendar of classes or contact me to host your own party and earn free products.

Happy Stampin'
Mary
