Endless Wishes Shaker Easel - Go from a card to a sweet gift! Check out the video at www.SimplySimpleStamping.com and look for the April 19th post!

Some stamp sets fall in the “All Time Favorite” category.  Endless Birthday Wishes has always been high on my favorites list but it made another list recently….the Retirement List.

I’m sad to see this set go and I wanted to share a couple of videos with you using this set.  If it’s been on your Wish List, make sure to order it before it disappears forever.  Trust me, this stamp set will not disappoint.  It’s precious!

Today I want to share a throwback video to one of my favorite projects created with Endless Birthday Wishes.   Check out this SWEET birthday easel!

What’s not to love about this little easel sitting on a co-worker’s desk to remind them how special they are?

 

Super cute, right?  Well, there’s more.  You can take this easel and easily turn it into a birthday card.

  • Pink Pirouette – 3 ½” x 3 ½”, use the 3 ¼” SCALLOP Square Framelit

It’s a day of remembrance here in Oklahoma City today.  On April 19, 1995, two men plotted and initiated a horrible terrorist attack in our downtown area. A truck filled with explosives was placed in front of the Murrah Federal Building and at 9:02am, it exploded, killing 168 people and injuring close to 700.

I’m sure a lot of you remember that day and watching TV in total disbelief that anything like this could happen here in the USA.

It is a reminder that we should cherish every morning, say “I love you” to the ones we hold dear, and continue to pray for peace in our nation.

I don’t want the end of my post to be somber or make you feel sad but to encourage you to celebrate your life and to hug those you love.  🙂  I hope you know how much I love you guys and I want you to know that I cherish you!
