Faith in Nature

This is one of my favorite hostess sets. You can purchase this with your hostess reward money for as little as $8 for the clear set and has five different stamps included. This card was made by Vanessa Zhong. Isn't it beautiful?

Thanks for Inkin' of me,

Stampin' Up! Stamps are a Top 10 Tool for 2011

We're excited to announce that Creating Keepsakes magazine has named Stampin' Up!'s wood- and clear-mount rubber stamps as one of its Top 10 Tools for 2011!

While Stampin' Up! has long been recognized in the stamping and crafting industry for producing high-quality rubber stamps and exclusive images in a variety of artistic styles, being recognized by Creating Keepsakes is just another validation that when you choose Stampin' Up! products, you are choosing the best!

Licensed & Ready!

I'm back! After six weeks of school, studying every night and working as well, I've passed my class test (with flying colors) and sat for my State Licensing Exam and passed! I'm officially a licensed Real Estate Salesperson!! WOO HOO! Those of you who know me, know that I haven't been in school for a few years. So, can I share with you how hard it was to develop good study habits when you have a family of six and a job outside of the home? Phew... so glad to move on and learn more, but without the exams! I know what you're thinking, "life is one big exam after another!" right? I couldn't agree more!

I'm ready to get back to stampin'! Earlier this month, I signed up to be an seven different swaps in the new catalog! I am fired up to finish up my cards and get back 100+ cards, each made with a different stamp set out of the New Idea Book & Catalog (2011-2012)!! I'll be showing these off on a daily basis. Stay tuned in early September for some major sharing!! Meanwhile, I'll be sharing along the way, too.

Thank you for your patience and understanding,
Keri
Happy stamper in Michigan!
