Good morning and Happy May Day! So…do kids still make little May Day baskets and take them to the neighbors? Am I totally showing my age?! Probably! But – it was a fun tradition that I remember doing with my grandmother and brother in Garden Grove! At least – I THINK I remember that… 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

But – guess what ELSE today is?? Today is the LAST day to snap up those goodies that are leaving us from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog and Jan – Apr 2023 Mini Catalog! Be sure to take one last swing thru the Last Chance store – right here before it’s all gone-baby-gone!

Good morning and welcome back to the work week. I hope wherever you are – you were safe over the weekend. My thoughts are with the folks who were so grievously impacted by that horrible tornado. 😔

Posted on February 27, 2023 by stampsnlingers

Good morning – and Happy Monday! It’s the LAST Monday of February already – can you even believe that another month has come and gone?!? AND its even harder for me to believe that Sale-A-Bration is almost over!

My card today doesn’t use any Sale-a-Bration products, sorry! Instead, I’ve used the pretty Decorative Borders set paired with the Happy Labels sentiment set. And some pretty Cane Weave 3D Embossing to make a clean and simple note card for you. Take a look-see:
