Good morning good morning good morning!!! GUESS WHAT DAY IT IS?!?
No, silly – it’s not HAWWMP Day! It’s OFF TO VACAY Day!!
We’re on our way to Seattle – and looking forward to a few days of sight-seeing and trying to get the idea of moving to that area out of my head!
I fear this plan may backfire…. 😉
Anywho…
Next on the agenda is the cruise. Whoo-hoo! And I’ve heard tell that the folks who give us all the service that cruises are known for do appreciate a hand-stamped little thank you at the end. Stampin’ Up! has kindly paid our required gratuity (yes – being an SU! demonstrator is awesome and earning a trip is one heck of a perk…perhaps you’d like to earn a cool trip of your own?) but we can give a little extra at the end to those folks who we think go above and beyond.
Well – it turns out that SU! has ALSO come up with the perfectly perfect All Inclusive Card Kit – called…Notes of Kindness!
So, I whipped out a bunch of these babies and boy are they wonderful! I have to say – I love all our kits – but I don’t always love them enough to partake in the refill. This one is NOT one of those. I’m going to order the refill ASAP – it’s just that cool! When you buy the kit – you even get an acrylic block. All you need to add is some adhesive – I recommend Liquid Glue and/or Glue Dots. 🙂
So…the kit comes with a Basic Black Archival ink spot and you can make 20 gorgeous cards (in 4 designs) with just that. But, you know I have a penchant for doing up the inside of my cards – and my envelopes – so, I also pulled out my Blushing Bride, Mint Macaron and Mossy Meadow ink pads and got busy!
All of the envelopes come with a wonderful Blushing Bride striped “liner” already inside…
but…since I already had the additional pads out..
I know – crazy pretty, right? And fun to make. The included Copper Baker’s Twine is….ridiculously wonderful! Hey, Stampin’ Up! – WE NEED THIS TWINE IN THE CATALOG!! Seriously.
So – I can’t recommend this kit enough. Get it now. Get the refill at the same time. You won’t be sorry!
Well…I’m off, folks! Stay tuned for updates from the great Pacific Northwest! 🙂 🙂 🙂

Finn Fan Fix
Sunday was packing day.
Now – you should know. I’ve packed for a LOT of trips – a LOT.
I’m pretty good at it. Don’t really even have to think on it much. Heck – it’s the same stuff every time.
Unless.
You’re going to Seattle/Sequim for a few days and then on an Alaskan cruise with your other half.
And then – all heck breaks loose!
No – that is NOT an episode of Hoarders.
It’s our bedroom as we attempt to resolve the whatdowewearontheexcursionsandwhatdowewearontheship question. Part of the problem is that I’ve bought clothes for my new skinny self and I sorta want to dress up. Which means that Wayne sorta HAS to dress up! Which means – we gotta find/clean/try on dress-y-er-up clothes for him
This is not a trivial task.
The struggle is real.
When the stress began to bubble over, we took a little break and took the Man off to camp. I actually needed to get that out of the way so I could quit worrying about it.
You can see that Finn was….devastated to be going to camp. He HATES it there. 😉
Uhm…no. Not at all true.
He went off to play with nary a backward glance…
Have a good time, Finny Bo-Binny! Love you more than chocolate.
See you in August!
🙂
