It has been such a joy to hear from so many of you with questions about the LAST CHANCE LISTS. Some of your questions are funny. Some are serious. Others are complicated. But most are just easy-peasy and simple to answer. I wanted to use this stamp set, because as a result of your visits, you've been in my thoughts...
...and I've been flitting around like a butterfly...
...getting ready for the NEW CATALOG!
A LITTLE DESIGN NOTE: When you make a card with an element like the butterfly above, make a couple extra to slip inside the envelope. The recipient will LOVE your card - and LOOOVVVEEE the extra surprises tucked away even more!

Cherries are finally in the produce section! For some reason they are a little late in coming. But now I plan to enjoy them! Yesterday, I fessed up to my hubby that last year, I made a few extra cherry-runs, and ended up eating them all before he even knew we had them! Of course, at $5.50 per pound, I probably only had a few handfuls-in-hiding. Regardless, I hope you ENJOY this bowl of cherries along with me...
The bowl of cherries is from a new stamp set (Cherish Friendship) in the brand new catalog to be released on July 1st. I have boxes of the 2011-2012 Idea Book & Catalog all stacked up and ready to pass out. You can get cherries at the grocery store but CONTACT ME TO GET YOUR BOOK!

Teacups are one of my favorite things. I have a collection. Teapots too! Drop by my house any time, and I'll show you. In the meantime, here's a card made with a stamp set called Timeless Treasures...
They bring happiness, always...
Some are very old. The best antiques are old friends...

Recently I was inspired to CASE a card made by Michelle Suit. CASE means Copy And Share Everything. Here's the card I made to look like the card she made...
(Someone took a bite just before I snapped the picture!!)
But... My favorite ice cream is a Dairy Queen BUSTER BAR...
...with nuts... lots of nuts!
...So I designed this Buster Bar by myself - for myself...
(I don't have to share it. I love being spoiled. Lucky me!)
Did you ever notice those greetings in the Afterthoughts Stamp Set?
This is a Hostess Stamp Set. Contact me to see how it can be yours!
But time is running out! (It is retiring on June 30th!)
Sundaes are good too! And three are much better than one!
(But they need NUTS!!)
MICHELLE... You are the inspiration for this delicious post. THANKS!
While I'm making my lists and checking them twice a dozen times, to see if there is anything else I can't do without from the soon-to-be-gone OLD catalog, I just have to play with a few things from the soon-to-be-here NEW catalog...

This stamp is from the fun and fabulous WORD PLAY STAMP SET. We all need to laugh a little more because life is too short to miss out...
