Take it to Heart

Yes, it is me and I am finally back! I took a break from blogging over the holidays and now I am ready to go again with the new Occasions Mini Catalog and the Sale-a-bration Catalog. So many wonderful, new accessories and stamp sets! Wow!
I made a lot of gifts for Christmas for my downline, club members and family and friends so now it is time to play again. This year I made all 110 Christmas cards, 3 calendars, 25 cozies out of our Stampin' Up! fabric, and many CD chocolate and coffee gifts, 13 swatchbooks, cards, and 2 photo albums which was a book about ME for my girls. Now they want one about their dad! I will post some of these ideas as the week goes along. One of my goals for the year is to post at least 5 times a week so here goes #1.
I just love the new framelits from the new Mini catalog. The ribbon along the side is Pool Party and then I added some fine narrow ribbon from the SAB catalog. I daubed too close on the beak with my aqua marker but it will work!
