Hello my stampin’ friends!  I hope your Monday has started off great.  Are you ready for a fun tutorial for Make It Monday?  I have a really bright and cheery card created solely with the 2018-2019 In-Colors.  I love this simple layout and can we talk about this Varied Vases stamp set?  It’s awesome!

The new Blueberry Bushel is a gorgeous deep shade of blue.  This polka dot pattern from the In-Color Designer Series Paper Stack gives this pretty vase a whimsical feel.

2-Step stamp sets have always held a special place in my heart.  I still remember the first 2-Step stamp set I got from Stampin’ Up about a hundred years ago.  

The Polka Dot Basics Embossing Folder gave the Lovely Lipstick cardstock some texture.

Not able to create today? Why not create a file in your “Documents” on your computer and call it MAKE IT MONDAY? Or, you can always search the Categories (right side bar) and click on Make It Monday and you will see all of them.

Here’s what you’ll need to create the IN-COLOR BIRTHDAY WISHES card.  Use what you have, order what you need.  Just click a pic!

We made it safe and sound to Broken Arrow, Oklahoma on Sunday.  We brought the RV and we’re all set up and ready for a week of awesome.  

If you’ve followed my blog for awhile you might remember Ginny auditioning for Kristin Chenoweth’s Broadway Bootcamp last year.  She had the most amazing experience EVER and I was thrilled beyond thrilled that she made it in again this year.  

There were over 500 kids who auditioned and 45 are selected to attend.  Kristin Chenoweth is bringing in some of the best stars Broadway has to offer.  Ginny will have the opportunity to work with them one-on-one to perfect her vocals, she will get a ton of dance experience with a Tony award winner, and Kristin has a few amazing things up her sleeve as she brings in Skype sessions with other actors in the biz to share with the kids as well.

To say that I am jealous is an understatement.  Oh to think if something like this were around when I was Ginny’s age.  Broadway Bootcamp is only open to high school students so this will be Ginny’s last year to be a part of it.

Christina and I will spend the week just hanging out around Broken Arrow and Tulsa.  I’m looking forward to some time with her.  We both will wait patiently for Ginny to come back to share all about her first day at Bootcamp.

Thanks so much for joining me today.  I will be sharing more stamping throughout the week.  Tomorrow is a new 2-Minute Tuesday Tip and Wednesday I have a cool video for the Fancy Fold Design Team.
