Sharing Sweet Thoughts

Good Morning, Stampers!

Each year, Stampin' Up! gives back to our communities through their Making A difference program.
Stampin' Up! donates time and money to support the Ronald McDonald House Charities. To date, they have donated over $1.5 million dollars to their network and local chapters! If you would like to help support RMHC, Stampin' Up! will donate $3 from the sale of each Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set.

I created this card featuring the Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set and the NEW Basket Weave embossing folder - they work so well together - like they were made for each other! And I love how the Stampin' Blends make the strawberries look good enough to eat! Lots of masking done here to get the panel full of strawberries - SO YUMMY!

Purchase the Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set in my

online store and I will include this card as a 

"Thank You" for supporting families through

the Ronald McDonald House Charities💗

My Hero

Good Morning, Stampers!

Ronald McDonald House Charities keeps families close and surrounded by love when their children are receiving medical treatment far from home. You can help us support famlilies in need through the RMHC and the Ronald McDonald House program.

Did you know????

Since 2003, Stampin’ Up! has partnered with RMHC to help families stay close to their hospitalized children. Our commitment to RMHC is four-fold:

1. Each year, we contribute $100,000 to RMHC. To date, we have contributed $1.5 million to RMHC and their network of local RMHC Chapters.

2. Each year, we design an exclusive stamp set and donate a portion of the proceeds to RMHC.

3. We donate cards and other crafting projects created at Stampin’ Up! events to local Houses.

4. We help organize teams of demonstrators to conduct activities in local Houses.

The My Hero stamp set was create with a little bit of something for everything in mind! The best part is that Stampin' Up! will donate $3 of each stamp set to RMHC. Add the set to your order this holiday season! I will include instructions for these three project ideas in your order!

Good Morning, Stampers!

I changed things up a bit for today's project. I added the bulk of the decorating into the inside of the card leaving the outside clean and simple. Those little polka dots are so playfun and fun!
