Who doesn't love a good #TBT post!? 
This week as we prepare for Stampin' Up!'s 26th Annual Convention in SLC, Utah, we're reminded that stamping has come a LONG way in those years!
Techniques have come and gone, styles have changed, and technology has made stamping a completely different industry.
What has NOT changed, is how timeless some stamp sets really are.
Here is an example!


This card was made using Fishin' from 1996!!  And @SoSocial from 2014/2015 
I love the textures and the way this set reminds me of days spent fishing with my husband.  We are celebrating our 10th Anniversary next month,  I told him he was my inspiration for the card and I just KNEW he remembered exactly what I meant by it.  
On our honeymoon we rented a boat and spent a whole day fishing.  Guess who caught the biggest fish?!?!!  Ha ha...it WASN'T him.  muah hahaha  :)

  (speaking of the hubs, he kindly pointed out that I colored this Bass to look like a Perch...oh well, I still like him)

  Our new Blendabilities make bringing water and grass to life SO simple!!  I am hooked!  (total pun intended!)


#whatagreatmoment  I completely agree :)

Let kids be kids ~ and how can you not celebrate that?!


Today is all about celebrating kids!  What better way to get my crafty bum in gear than to make my son's birthday invites!!

Okay:  So what can we make with these?
 How about this?!

These were so much fun!!  And using our White Stampin' Chalk Marker made this SUPER easy! 

 I honestly can say they were all super easy to make
and I cannot tell which one I love more.  We are huge TMNT fans around here and I was so happy to be able to make these for my son.  He's going to flip his soon-to-be 3 year old lid tomorrow when he see's them! (hopefully!!)
