Celebrate Today!

I mentioned in my last post my husband & I went to see Joel Osteen last weekend in Ohio. His message included thanking God for everything good and right in your life. When you wake up, be happy you can see, walk, have clothes to wear, a job to go to. It's such a simple thing to do, yet I know I am guilty of taking things for granted. I am going to try harder to "celebrate today" each and every day.
My creation goes along with my new theme in life! I hope you like it. It's also fitting for a birthday card too! The "Celebrate" comes from the Stampin' Up! retired set Wonderful Words. It's very similar to Heard from the Heart or Warm Words, another favorite of mine. You could also use Celebrate Everything and really personalize what you are celebrating!

The big scallop circle in the background is the Scallop Circle Die (item #113468) from Stampin' Up! This die is not only great for scallop circle die cuts, but you can also make scallop circle cards from it. If you don't have a die cutting machine and would like scallop circle cards, Stampin' Up! sells Carousel Notes which include 12 cards with envelopes!

I created my own center for the Prima flowers using Stampin' Up! Jumbo Brads and adding a little flower rub-on. Don't be shy about using your rub-ons. They go on practically anything! Gotta love em!

Leave me a comment and let me know what you are going to celebrate today! It could be that your kids are healthy, the UPS man came today with your Stampin' Up! order, or you ate candy for breakfast! The candy for breakfast would do it for my little one!

Have a great day and thank you so much for visiting my blog!

Hello friends!

I am having a great week! I've been busy placing Stampin' Up! orders for my customers, spending time with friends and family, and got asked to be on a design team! That was my big news! I am still learning about this online store I am going to design for and I will provide you with more details later. I am very excited about it!!!!

I made this card for one of my best friends who took me along to the Amuse event on Sunday. She is a sweetie and a wonderful stamper too!!! The supplies I used are listed at the end of this posting.

I just bought the Spiral Binding punch from Stampin' Up! and wasn't sure if I would like it or not. I used it for this card and let me tell you, it's a slick little punch to use and I love it! I have seen so many samples using this punch that I don't think this one will go unused.

I hope you are having a fun week and enjoying your summer. Thank you for stopping by and be sure to check out all the Stampin' Up! sales on my sidebar. The retired accessories list is out so stock up now while supplies last.

Take care.
