shout outs

This is a shout out to Samantha Ovitt from Bakersfield, Vermont!!!

Samantha left me a comment on my "Snail Mail" post and she'll

be receiving a free card in the mail from me! I didn't post her
comment because she left her address in the comment box
and I didn't think she'd want me to share that with the world!

She said:

"I love the internet and the ability to stay in touch with my siblings who all live in different states. However, receiving snail mail somehow warms the heart like nothing else ... especially when it is handmade and from the heart. I try to remember that and take a moment to put a smile on someone's face and a little warmth in their heart."

How nice!
Would you like me to send you a free card, too?
Leave me a comment and tell me why, then email me your address
and I'll drop a handmade card in the mail especially for you!

Thanks, Samantha! Your card will go in the mail on Saturday!

My other shout out is to my awesome upline, Kay...
I loved her tutorials so much, I became a
Stampin' Up! Demonstrator!
She is so sweet and inspiring!

Thanks, Kay!

over 1000!

How exciting! I've had 1000 visitors!

I know that's not much when a lot of bloggers have MUCH

more than that, but this "newbie" gets excited over the little things!

Please keep coming back! :) I'll keep posting!

I love all of you crafty people!!!

shout out to my UPS buddy

Dear Mr. UPS Man,

Thank you for delivering my wonderful Stampin' Up! goodies today! You are always so pleasant and don't really seem to mind that you have to come to my house almost every day AND try to maneuver your truck down our ridiculously long driveway! You always have a smile on your face when you greet me with my lovely SU! box! It makes me laugh when you say "See you tomorrow!"

Sincerely,

Heather

I can't wait to play with my new toys!!!

Until then... here's an MDS scrapbook page I just made!

Until tomorrow, dear blogging friends!

Have a fabulous night!

addicted to snail mail

I'm one of those strange people who just find it so fun to receive snail mail... Especially when it's a card! I think in this age of technology we miss those little personal touches, AND the excitement of getting real mail!

SOOOO....

Would you like to receive snail mail too? Post a comment and tell me why you love snail mail and I'd be happy to send you a handmade card from yours truly! Oh, and don't forget to email me your address! I'll even leave the card blank so you can pay it forward!

Happy mailing!

Have a fabulous night!

duck punch art & a mini pizza box

Look what my mom made!

She used my pizza box tutorial (see my post from 1/31/11).

She made a baby card, the pizza, and made 3x3 notecards

(thank you cards) to go inside. Aren't they cute?!

I believe she "cased" the duck and design from misslilstamper.
And, she "cased" the pizza box from me!

i (heart) "my digital studio"

Dear UPS,

Thank you for delivering my "My Digital Studio" software today!

Yippee!!!!

I've made my first scrapbook page... it was so easy!
This page literally took me 5 minutes to make, which
is saying a lot since I have ZERO digital
scrapbooking experience!

You have to try it!
ORDER MDS NOW!!!

And, what a cutie!
He's my brother-in-law's/sister-in-law's little boy!
