I have had an eclectic kind of week – a mish mash of classes, FB LIVES, and even cards! I’ve jumped from the Mini Holiday catalog to the Annual Catalog, and today I jumped back to the Holiday one. I’ve done samplers, techniques, masculine cards, sympathy cards, and Christmas cards!! We’ve had free shipping day and Mystery Box announcements. Kind of been all over, haven’t I?? LOL
Knowing I would be gone for these next two weeks I wanted to schedule as many live events as possible and it’s been a whirlwind week but I believe we made it through the worst! Now on to attending a crop in my hometown, a funeral AND 90th birthday dinner tomorrow, and packing last minute – right before we have to leave!! – and it’s smooth flying/sailing – hopefully!
Hoping The Boughs Of Holly DSP Carries Over!!!
I have truly loved the Boughs Of Holly DSP – some of the most beautiful prints Stampin’ Up has offered in their designer series papers. I’ve not tired from using it for my Christmas cards so my hope is that it will make the list of returning products from the holiday mini catalog. Was it one of your favorites as well?
Adding the Merry Melody embossing folder and the beautiful gold holly leaf was the perfect touch to this elegant card, along with the gold and vanilla satin-edged ribbon and the festive pearls for embellishment. I find that Shaded Spruce is not a green I turn to, so it was a refreshing change to use with the Boughs Of Holly dsp, and the Happy Holidays greeting came from the Brightest Glow stamp set. Everything came from the Holiday mini catalog EXCEPT the embossing folder that is included in the annual catalog. (The irony is that as a music director you would think I have used that folder multiple times, right??? Nope – first time today!) Go figure!

Final Thoughts…
I’ll be back tomorrow to share a quick post before we take off for Aaron’s memorial service, then back for my mother-in-law’s 90th birthday dinner. Thank you so very much for your comments and condolences on our dear friend’s passing. Aaron truly was my “brother from another mother” and we will celebrate his life tomorrow with both tears and laughter. I’m thankful for the years of friendship we had and the memories to continue for years to come. Find some time this week to visit and laugh with a dear friend and make those memories for yourself. Take care and God Bless!

Hey Arla!!!! Thank you for the comment you sent! We had a wonderful trip and my Mom in love had the kind of birthday she would have wanted – spending it with her two kids and their spouses together for dinner. It made her heart smile!
