Welcome to our Stamp Simply Christmas Blog Hop and Sale! Yes, we have arrived at our new home in Tajikistan. All is well (more about it all in a future post), but most of my stamping items are still in transit! I wanted to play along today, but will only be able to do so with previous samples that I created...so sorry! So, if you are dealing with hot and steamy weather right now, how about checking out these crisp, refreshing Christmas ideas for a bit of relief? There's also something "sweet"--details to follow!
The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store needs more space for incoming product. Some of the Christmas items currently in stock are being offered at reduced prices to clear those shelves. Today the Design Team is here to inspire you in the creation of your Christmas projects, and with the papers and some of the other items in use being offered at SALE prices, what better time to stock up than now!!! Sale prices are in effect while current inventory lasts -- when it's gone, it's gone -- so sorry.

ReplyDeleteSusan
Oh Deb! How wonderful to hear from you! I remember most of these projects as if they were from yesterday! I love them! I think that the snowman on the first card has a mischievous look in his eye or smile. Love that card! My favorite is the one with the Graphics 45 gold and ivory paper. Could anything be more beautiful...other than the person sending it? I think my favorite paper is used in the last card shown. It is so versatile, the colors are vibrant...and that stamp is so cute! The "dear" bag has been one of my Favorites of yours since you made it...I remember when I saw it. It was the first time I realized how wonderful a bag could look...for any occassion!!
ReplyDeleteSorry your new supplies haven't reached you yet...can't run out to the local Michaels? LOL At least you have had some time to set up your home...where if you had all of these fabulous new things...you may have been distracted! (Trying to find the silver lining!) God bless you and yours, Deb!
He IS Able!
