Good morning everyone!!! Here’s hoping you had a blessed Easter weekend! There were no Easter eggs hunts here at our house between the rain and half of the grands sick and unable to come. Oh, we did the egg coloring and the baskets filled with candy and money and really, the girls were most excited about the money! Today we make a whirl-wind trip to Jim’s hometown to take his mom home.
I was thinking about our Paper Pumpkin kit coming – Mountain Majesties. Every so often someone will ask, “Are you a mountain or beach type of person?” I can’t tell you which I enjoy the most! I love the beach and just watching the ocean waves break on the shore, BUT I love seeing the mountains as well! Some of our prettiest vacations have been to the Rockies. Which do you prefer, or you both like me?

The May Paper Pumpkin kit will be perfect for celebrating the men in our lives! Create Father’s Day cards with layered mountain landscapes!
• Makes 9 cards: 3 each of 3 designs with 9 coordinating envelopes
• Precut vellum and paper pieces
• Watercolor card bases and coordinating envelopes
• Coordinating colors: Basic Black, Lost Lagoon, Misty Moonlight
(Classic Stampin’ Spot), Mossy Meadow
This kit is available until May 10, so be sure to reserve your copy soon. Also, be aware that as of April 11, the monthly Paper Pumpkin kits have a price increase to $27 monthly.

Just a reminder that our 2025 ANNUAL CATALOG PAPER/RIBBON SHARES are open!!! This is the best way to gather a small collection of all of the new DSP – it’s like a taste of everything! Some people find that shares give them PLENTY of DSP to create with, without purchasing the whole 12×12 inch package! Each paper share comes with over 200 sheets of 6×6 DSP! Once you have a favorite paper, then go order the full pack!!! Of 5 or 6 of them! LOL
Click on the link below for more details AND the reservation form with payment link!!! We have 1 week remaining before the catalog goes live, so be sure to reserve your share this week!!!!

Final Thoughts…..

A picture is worth a 1,000 words! Pool Boy has had a rough few months and just a week ago today we were in the hospital, but you wouldn’t tell it from the photo above. It did him good to have his mom, his daughter, and his grand daughters all here to visit with. Not just mean badgering him! Family truly is everything!
Until tomorrow, have a great day doing whatever you love, and God Bless!
