Not everyone went on our annual Lake Powell trip, but those who did will remember this one for a long time!

Ashton turned twelve at Lake Powell—a longtime tradition for him. Instead of wrapping his parents’ gift in traditional wrap, his gift wrap was personalized with hand drawn lettering and drawings by family vacationing at the lake. Since Ashton likes all things camouflage and enjoys shooting targets with his bow and arrow, our gift packaging was personalized too—with stamps and ink!

When I was looking for a photo to include in Pam’s memory album, I came across this gem from over a dozen years ago. It makes me happy every time I look at it, knowing I have a dear friend in Pam. Thanks for YOU, Pam! 

Here are the last two cards from my stockpile. 

May is Arthritis Awareness Month in the United States, but no matter where you live, you probably know someone with arthritis. It’s like any disease with good days and bad days. Although there are lots of things to make life easier and less painful for people with arthritis, I wanted to share a few tools I appreciate on the not-so-good days.

Ruth and her husband Steve were welcomed in grand fashion at the home office in Riverton!

With a little imagination, and a few crafting supplies, you can create just about anything!

I sometimes stockpile cards to share, and then I forget to share! So, I’m posting two cards today…

Welcome to my new blog! It’s got a fresh and fun look, you’ll see more at a glance, it should be easier to navigate, and you can view it on your mobile devices.

This Mother’s Day we’re honoring our mothers who have passed on by giving our girls two gifts to remember them by (along with a random cute book about moms)—all tucked in a gift bag with this beautiful card attached.

I posted about our trip to see Shanna and the twins on their birthday, but I didn’t share their birthday gift packaging…same stamp set, entirely different look!

Ruth Snyder will be visiting Utah later this month to celebrate her Million Milestone, but honoring her and her accomplishment began when she achieved her milestone and received this beautiful card showcasing some of her favorite things.

Every year, usually in the spring, we have employee appreciation events in all of our Stampin’ Up! offices. Last week I got to attend two barbecue lunches (one in Riverton and one in Kanab).

Sean’s birthday usually signals that spring is here and summer is coming soon. It’s also time to start thinking about family time in the sun and boating on the water…

Because I haven’t been well enough to fly, we hadn’t been to Florida to visit with Shanna and the twins since September, so it was high time for a trip to spend time with them!
