I had good intentions of
posting the Blog Candy Winner yesterday, but after such a busy weekend, I found
that I was playing “catch up” all day Monday. Drum Roll please…Congratulations to Kathy K.! I'll send it out right away!
I continue to draw names out of a hat, but I when I get the chance I’ll check into an automated generator for drawing numbers.
Today’s post is a teacher gift idea for teacher appreciation or “End of the Year” gift. I found this super cute photo holder at a big box store (Kirkland’s) on sale, 2 for $5!! I couldn’t resist picking up a few (or should I say cleaning off the shelf!) for my daughters’ teacher gifts. My girls are all in high school, so I’m not sure if they even want to give gifts of appreciation. It may not be the “cool thing to do”! Of course, I had to add some hand stamped 3x3 cards for a cuteness factor. I used Tart & Tangy Stamp Set, which has been in the Stampin’ Up! Idea Book and Catalog for a couple of years. I always bring it out this time of year and again in the fall!

Ruby Red is retiring once supplies are depleted. Wild Wasabi is a retired In Color from a couple of years ago that is returning on July 1! Green is my favorite color, so needless to say, I’m excited!!
It was so nice to hear from my readers and customers over the weekend! I'll be posting pictures this week of my Stamp-A-Stack Class! If you live in the Richmond, VA Area and would like to attend my class this Sunday, drop me an email. I'll give you all the details in tomorrow's post!
