Kind Thanks

Lots of Kind Thanks going on here! I spotted a card similar to this on Stampin' Connections by mommie2quads (which just makes me exhausted to write) and loved how she let the Designer Series Paper take the focus on the card.
Cardstock: Old Olive, So Saffron, Rose Red, Whisper White
Stamp Set: Thank You Kindly, With All My Heart
Accessories: Extra large Fancy Flower, 1" Circle, Eyelet Border Punch, Rich Regals Brads, Trio Flower (which perfectly cuts out the small flower in the With All My Heart stamp set...gotta love that Stampin' Up! for always thinking for us!!


My Ace In Training son, Benjamin is still making cakes! This one was a practice one to keep up his skills on fondant roses. The colors were beautiful, even though you wouldn't know it by the color in this picture Ü

Good news for all of you who have e-mailed me about the sock monkey hats!


I contacted Debbie Orme, Store Director for the Fuego store where I purchased them. She said to contact her directly if you want to purchase a sock monkey hat and she will see what she can do. Her number is 208-287-3292 and e-mail is Boise@shopfuego.com . Good luck!

  9. The cards are beautiful and so understated. What am I missing on the paper - are you using a DSP?

    Benjamin's cakes have been fun to follow as well! He has a future!

  11. OMG! OMG! OMG! Thank you so much for CASEing one of my cards and giving me the credit. I feel so HONORED and FLATTERED that the GREAT Becky Roberts is CASEing my card. My kids and I (Quads + 1) have been shouting and dancing with joy. Thank you so much. I am truly humble. Be Blessed. Oh, your Son's cakes are beautiful, he is very talented. I guess the saying is true, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. (smiley face)

  12. Love the cards. Very pretty. I love Benjamin's cake. He is quite talented. I am a pastry chef, trained at the CIA in New York. You need to get him a copy of The Cake Bible so his cakes taste as yummy as they look. Also a great fondant product that actually tastes good is called ChocoPan. Check them out. He has a bright future ahead of him.
