Hello my friends! I have been very quiet for quite a while… As most of you know, my husband has been ill for many years, but in Oct. he took a turn for the worse and was put on Hospice. Sadly, he passed away at home with all of us with him 2 months ago. Today would have been our 49th Wedding Anniversary… 💔🥺

I just wanted to thank you all for your patience, understanding, cards, texts and messages, calls and your orders that have kept me going with Stampin’ Up! I am working on my thank you cards currently, so if you have placed an order or several, be looking for something coming in the near future!

I plan to be getting back to vending at crops, starting this weekend at Tonya’s Shamrock Crop and in 2 weeks at Weekend Memories, but I am hoping to start offering classes of all types starting in May!

Thank you so much for your kindness, concern and support!
Hugs, Barb

Hello my Friends… due to my husband’s declining health, I have been unable to attend any crops or offer my Christmas Classes this year… I ordered 2 extra Stampin’ Up Advent Calendars thinking I would be able to offer them at my classes. I do not need 3 of them… they come with the stamp set shown. The actual cost is $99. plus shipping and tax… I am willing to offer them to the first 2 people who claim them for $99., no shipping or tax added.

I would prefer the purchaser do porch pick up’s, I am unable to run errands (Go to USPS) at this time. If you want it, and are not near by, it may take longer to get it out to you! Please email me at [email protected] or text me at (703) 298-8629! I will take your Credit Card, Venmo, PayPal or even better - cash!

Hello my friends!
There are many things that I need to apologize to you for...

Please forgive me for being so quiet these past 9 months... It started with losing CTMH after 25 years... CTMH meant much more to me than even I realized! I have also been dealing with quite a few health challenges both personally, and within my family this year... I have just been so overwhelmed with everything!

I must say that I am truly grateful that Stampin' Up! opened their doors to all of CTMH's Former Consultants... they have been so kind and caring! However, the transition from CTMH to SU! has been a difficult one for me, there is so much to learn especially happening this year with all the health issues that my family and I have been dealing with!

Once I get into 2025, I am hoping to find a way to make my SU! business work for me... I have always worked my business as a vendor at crops, but all the crops I vend at already have a SU! Demonstrator... And I was truly surprised to find out that many of my CTMH customers were SU! Hobbyists... so I went from many customers to very few! It is what it is... I just need to figure out a way to make this work for me... One of my Team Members, who is in a similar situation, said we need to Pray for VISION! 🙏

SO, with all that said, I want to clear my conscience... 9 months ago, I realized that I was pretty close to reaching a goal of becoming a Founder (The highest Consultant Title) before CTMH closed their doors... So I put it out there, telling you all about my BHAG, and YOU helped me do it! I promised that I would send everyone who ordered a card and a "Happy". I also promised that I would do a drawing of everyone who placed an order for one of my Pizza Boxes (Mystery) valued at $100 - $125... Unfortunately, this huge task of making all these cards added to my being overwhelmed and I totally dropped the ball!

Yesterday, I mailed a card and a Happy to everyone who placed an order to help me hit Founder. Now the next step is to do a drawing with all of your names!! I typed you all into the wheel and ran the Drawing and the WINNER is... (See the FIRST Comment!)

Congratulations to the winner... I need to find the box buried in my garage and will mail it to you ASAP!

BTW, I still have 10 TONS of CTMH product! If there is anything specific you are looking for, especially stamps, stamps with Thin Cuts, ink pads, Shimmer Brushes, Cardstock and B&T Paper... Please contact me! I do have some Scrapbook & Card Workshops available... won't hurt to ask!

Thank you all for your very kind patience and support... Hope to see you all soon! Happy Holidays!
