Good morning, y’all – I hope your weekend is going well so far.
While I’ve been here in Colorado, some of my teammates have been “retreating” in North Georgia! I’m sorry to have missed the retreat – but…being here with my Mom was more important so…there it is!
But – that doesn’t mean I can’t share the creativity of my friends! We all bring a “shoebox” swap – with a card or project, plus all the things that are needed to make the project. AND written instructions. They’re all sending mine home to me so…I’ll be able to share how to make them as the next weeks go by.
I figured I’d give you a little sneak peek at what’s in store!
This first one was created by Amy Koenders! I love the mix of the Take a Bow 6″ x 6″ DSPs and the Decorative Trees bundle is one of my faves!
Janet Gruer made a couple of darling treat boxes using the Book Treat Boxes and Nests of Winter DSP – I can’t wait to make some of these!
One of a couple of fun folds, this beauty from Karen Kzensakovic features a perennial favorite – the Perennial Lavender DSP and Spotlight on Nature dies. See what I did there!? 🙂
Susan Stanley also brought a fun fold with the Winterly Trees Tops bundle and that wunnermus Nests of Winter DSP. Can’t wait to try this one!
Oooh – Linda Nye made a glow-y easel card – and the Christmas Wishes stockings were hung by the chimney with care!! I LOVE glow-y cards so…I am betting this will be the first one I dive into when I get home next week!
This fun fold, styled by Tara Carpenter, features some Season of Green & Gold Specialty DSP and a pretty poinsettia from the Rustic Crate bundle. Love!
Karen Ilsley made this fun fold – that Spotlight on Nature die set is popular (for VERY good reason!). I love the DSP with the pretty embossing – and the faux bow is perfect! 🙂
Finally, Judi Hartbarger made this fun fold beauty with the Sophisticated Sled bundle (an online exclusive)!
And – I made this easel calendar/sticky note holder with the Snowy Wonder bundle! Which you can see how to make right now…at this blog post! I reversed the cardstock colors for the swap version!
We DO like our fun folds in this group, don’t we?!? 😎
Well – I missed being there in person – the flip side is the time I got with my Mom! – but look what fun I have to look forward to when I get home!
I’ll share some photos of the fun – let’s call them B-roll! – soon – they’ve been kindly sending pictures all weekend!! And – just so you know – we’re planning to do TWO sessions next year – so even more team members will be able to play along! Which means – if you want to join us…. we’d love to have you on the team!! 🙂

Finn Fan Fix 
I’m still in Colorado – Finn’s still in Georgia! So..no new pictures till I get home.
Here’s a blast-from-the-past to hold you over! 🙂
From 6 Sep 2019:
It’s an awful burden to be so stinkin’ cute that someone is ALWAYS taking your picture.
But – seriously?
Something so simple as sleeping – the Finn-man even does THAT cuter than any dog I know!

We all missed you so much Mary, it wasn’t the same without you, but we all know that family (and moms especially) come first. Have fun making the projects when you get home.
I can hardly wait to play! Thank you, Karen – so glad you had fun. Already looking forward to 2025!! 🙂
We missed you at the retreat! Can’t wait for next year!! 🙂
Me, too and Me, too!! 🙂
What a talented group with their beautiful cards!
And I am sure Finn was resting his talented efforts.
Thank you.
