Let me share what I created for this weekend’s sketch challenge…
This card was so much fun to make! I used 2 different stamp sets and one of them is a Christmas stamp set, Be Jolly, by Golly. I L O V E it! I love using a Christmas stamp set in a totally different way.
This card is also a Flash Card and the retro feel of this card was so fitting for me.
A little glitter on the glass rim really made this card fun! Love that little lemon on the side too. It added just the right amount of bright yellow.

I don’t think Flourishing Phrases bundle ever leaves my desk these days. I just love this stamp set and the matching framelits.
Elegant Eggplant and Wisteria Wonder are so beautiful together. That touch of Pear Pizzazz just makes this simple card a big WOW card. And the framelits did all the work!
I think this would also make a beautiful sympathy card too.

Sketches provide a jump start to creativity but what I love are all the different interpretations! That’s why I have joined forces with 3 other demonstrator friends to help me create and enjoy the Stampin’ Gals Gone Wild Weekend Challenges! What better way to show you the magical possibilities of sketches than to provide you with different styles of interpretations?!?
And now it’s YOUR turn! What will you create with this weekend’s sketch? Give it a try and then head over to our Facebook page and share! Can’t wait to see what you create!

How about a pic of the new camper. We traveled in a motor home for several years, so I’m feeling a little nostalgic hearing about your weekend.
I took some pictures this weekend and posted them for you. Check out the September 12th blog post. 🙂

LOL! You could tell I was excited, right? It was a great trip. I am in LOVE with my new camper!!!
Hey Connie, your emails to me are showing the dates of Aug. I have 14 of them. , love your Gals Gone Wild Facebook page. Had to join myself. For some reason I can’t understand I can’t find your current challenge. As much as it pains me, I’m going to delete all and start over. Thank you so much for your shares. Thank YOU!
A few subscribers had this problem about 2 years ago and it was just a matter of hitting the HOME button on the website but getting 14 of the same emails? I really don’t know why it would be doing that.
You might try going to https://subscribe.wordpress.com/
On the left you will see Manage Your Subscriptions. Enter your email address and click Request Details. You will get an email with a link in it. It will take your Subscription Management. Just under Subscription Management you will see Settings.
Make sure that Block Emails has NO tick mark in that box (Block all email updates from blogs you’re following on WordPress.com) and then SAVE changes. That last part is important. You have to click SAVE. 🙂
Once WordPress can send emails again, you’ll be able to re-subscribe. So, you can now go back to http://www.SimplySimpleStamping.com and enter your email address in the subscribe box. Maybe this will help reset it????
Let me know if that takes care of the problem! It helps me help others when I know what works and what doesn’t.
