WOYWW #382--Packing Up

Hi All,

Another beautiful week has buzzed by quicker than an Army barber clipping a new recruit!  Happy WOYWW # 382.  Looking to see what the "buzz" is all about....hop on over to visit Julia's Stamping Ground where you can learn more.  Don't forget to check out all the other talented artists!

I have to say...not much crafting going on in my space this week.  Packing for a trip to Canada next week.  Just received a box of goodies from Fun Stampers Journey, can't wait to get grooving on some new toys! The card and mermaid stamp was a very unexpected surprise from my Fun Stampers upline, Carol.  She's so sweet and I am happy to be part of her team.

Speaking of teams, YIPPEE SKIPPY, I will be helping out this Saturday at the Scrapbook and Stamping Expo in Akron, Ohio at the FSJ booth!  OMG...I can't wait to meet Richard Garay, President & Co-Founder of Fun Stampers Journey.  I'm so excited that I'm liable to skip work the next couple days and camp out at the expo center!  Check out Richard in his video's on YouTube.
He has a really creative soul and showcases some beautiful projects.

With that said, I'm off to pick up, pack up and go!
Until next week....
A good laugh and lots of Sparkles are the two best cures for anything!
Hugs,
Chris



In the back is my FSJ Tote.
I just received 3 new punches they are behind the beautiful card Carol sent.  In front of the card is the mermaid stamp,hard to see.  My Envelope set die is on top of the FSJ bags.  The smaller pack of dies are Winter Hills and Holiday Box window Die set and last is my new FSJ Trim & Score cutter.

  17. Have a great trip, Chris. Nice fun stash to play with, too! Have a great week. Thanks for your lovely comment - come over any time with coffee and we'll tuck in to cakes! I find if I take a max of 2 on a plate through into the sitting room and leave the tin in the kitchen, I can restrict my intake of cakes and keep my weight under control. Same with choccies. If I have the tin/box beside me, it's fatal.

    Happy belated WOYWW,

Thanks for the visit earlier this week... and YES, everytime I look out the window of our new home I pinch myself! (hugs) and Happy WOYWW from Lynne #44
