New Host Code

March 30, 2023Leave a comment

Hello Stampers! It’s a day to change the host code and here it is: 9QVMM3NC. Host codes change every few weeks. I appreciate if you use a host code on orders under $150 excluding shipping and tax. If your order is OVER $150, then don’t use a host code and remain shopping with me. Either case will earn you the monthly Pretty Paper Projects pdf idea file. It’s filled with assorted stamps, design styles and pretty papers too!

Click on the graphic or these words to zoom to my online store to be linked to the host code. You can always remove the host code if your order tips over the $150 mark as well.

Happy Shopping and Stamping! Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

Paper Crafting Blog Hop Queen Bee My Favorite Bundle

March 15, 2023March 15, 202315 Comments

Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the globe. We have a wide array of projects created with current catalog products to share with you featuring our favorite bundles. You may have arrived from Traci Gardner’s blog. Hop all the way around until you get back to me so you see it all!

Queen Bee bundle is my current favorite as I love the shabby chic look that can be created with the stamps. I am also a honey beekeeper;) I opted for a repetitive pattern for this design, using Rustic Metallic dots to accentuate the floral springs.

The inside is decorated too…

Thanks for hopping with us each month. Now click here to hop to Tracy Held’s blog to see what fun project she has created.
