Announcement & Quick Share

Ok, my daughter graduates High School tomorrow so I've got LOT'S going on.  But I wanted to post really quick.  First I am going to be going on vacation for 2 weeks coming up this Sunday (Father's Day) we are heading to Monterey…stopping first in Port Hueneme (Mandaly Beach)…then on the way back from Monterey we are stopping in Pismo Beach then Anaheim to see the Pirate Adventure.  It should be a GREAT vacation. SO while I am gone I am going to have a HUGE Give Away. To find out the details just subscribe to my monthly newsletter at the upper left hand corner under my photo. My mid-month email will have all the details and will come out on Sunday.  Only those that are subscribers will be eligible. 

Happy New Baby Card So now for my share.  I needed a quick baby notecard and gift and I pulled out my "Pun Fun" set.  I LOVE this set and the versatility of it.  It's the perfect stamp set for beginners. 

*All items used are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted

Stamp Set: Pun Fun
Cardstock: Whisper White, Certainly Celery
Ink: Basic Black, Certainly Celery
Accessories: Blender Pen, Silver Eyelet

The Baby Bear you ask? He to is Happy New Baby Card Close up handmade – I crocheted him all by myself. LOL!!! I couldn't resist taking a photo of him too!  Before my obssession for Stamping I crocheted. I still do and love it, my Mom taught me when I was 12.

I will have a post go out automatically tomorrow while I'm getting ready for Graduation. So stop by and see the card I made for my son's 5th Birthday.

Oh yes, did I fail to mention that we had his party this past Saturday since we are going to be gone on his Birthday. UGH!! I SO need a vacation!

Thanks for stopping by and as always Happy Stampin',
