Remarkable Ink Blog Hop


The Remarkable InkBig Blog Hop APRIL THEME:
Retiring 2015-2017 In Colors

Welcome to the Blog Hop for April 2017. This month our theme is “Retiring 2015 - 2017 InColors”.  You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog – Georgia Gaydos or may have come from the person previous to me in the list. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all the projects. At the moment you are visiting me at Livin', Lovin'n, Stampin' with G.
I am absolutely loving the colors that I used for this card.  These colors are just some of the colors retiring on May 31st. They are the In Colors 2015-2017. The flower was made using the Stylish Stems framelets and the sentiment is from the Window Shopping stamps in the Occasions catalog.  The mascara to this card is the hint of sparkle with Wink of Stella on the inside of the flower.
Thanks for taking part in our blog hop, there are so many amazing ideas and inspiration you don’t want to miss. Remember that right now you are at my blog – Livin', Lovin', Stampin' with GG, so check the blog hop line up list to see who is next in the list.

You can pick up all the supplies I used for this card at my shop!

Happy Stampin'!

Global Stamping Friends - Bloghop 8 My Favorite Bundle




Well, This is my first Hop with the Global Stamping Friends! This is number 8 and is My favorite bundle.

We have lots of regulars as well as a few new people participating, so I am sure you'll get to see some wonderful creations.  Fingers crossed that it goes to plan, but bear with us if there are any glitches, as a number of the participants are at an event called OnStage and OnStage local.  This is a wonderful event where Stampin' Up! Demonstrators get to learn about new products, get business tips and have a great time in general.  The April one is pretty big as they get to see the New Annual Catalog!! Yes some people already have it in their hot hands, and Yes I am a little envious, but as a demonstrator, I'll get to see it soon!  Exciting times.....


But, there is still lots of time to enjoy the current Annual Catalog and the Spring/Summer Catalog so there's no rush and we want to focus on the amazing products that you can buy!


Stampin' Up! do great bundles and the best thing of all - they come with a discount!  They also have lots of stamps sets that match punches or dies but this bloghop is all about the bundles!

My favorite bundle has to be....Rose Wonder Photopolymer bundle.  I have to be honest when I first saw it I only bought the dies, thinking I wouldn't use the stamps. Well, how wrong I was!  I then went and bought the dies - but missed getting the bundle discount!









This is a small up kick with Wink of Stella clear run over the Rose and the lettering. Just a hint of sparkle.



I love the fact that I only need to use one small cut out to make a big impact on this card. Creating my own designer series paper using the stamp set and then coloring in with the blender pens is so much fun.





And I love the large Rose!  Dies and stamps - what more could you want in a bundle? The only thing missing - a sentiment, but I'm sure everyone has one of those sitting around!


I hope you enjoy the bloghop and don't forget to hop along to see other favorite bundles, you can use the arrows below to move forward and backward.  If you're able to please leave comments and we love to know what viewers think.

Oooo Lala ...... Sassy Lady

I can not say just how much I really I absolutely adore this stamp set Beautiful You by Stampin' Up! You can find it in the Stampin' Up!2016-2017 Occasions catalog. So much fun and versatile for many different occasions.

With being handicapped due to a sprained right wrist, let me just say, that this set lends itself to make a complete card just with what comes with it. Very simple and elegant!

Happy Stampin',
Georgia

So what have you been up to?

As for me, I sprained my dominate hand the day I posted my last post. The struggle has been real. I never realized just how much I relied on my right hand.  Today, I finally get to go to see what the orthopedic says and hopefully get busy healing.
I keep seeing all the beautiful projects and want to share all the ideas I have in my head and well I need my hand for that.
So since I have not been able to create, show me what you have been working on.
Happy Stamping!

End of a crazy week for my family

Well, this week my husband went to Florida to help one of our girls move home.  Times are tough for our daughter and we are grateful to be in a position to help her out.  I am definitely looking forward to having my crafting buddy around for a little while.

Soon we will post some of what we will be working on.

Tell me how your week has gone!

To introduce you to my adult children. These three are my heart - on the left is my oldest daughter, Rebecca - on the right is my youngest daughter, Sabrina and in the middle is my bonus son from another mother -  my step son, Thomas. These three are total blessings in the good times and bad - I would not change a moment with any of them!

Changing things up a bit

Happy happy joy joy!

I saw a red corvette today on my way to work. The license plate was cute: NO ECAR and it made me laugh. Can you imagine an electric corvette?

I guess that makes you wonder what in the world that has to do with me and stamping. Seriously, I thought that too. But here I am Thinking to myself what about No EStampin? Why that popped into my head I don't know. But it is there so I figured I would post it and get your opinion.

So what do you think?

I really am looking forward  to getting your input.
