NEWS over at The Stamping Bazaar….
BIG news over at The Stamping Bazaar. After Marina seen the poll results, She has sent five (5) –just five!– rubber stamps of Sammy with Ball to be manufactured. This isn’t necessarily a limited edition, but she want to see how well he sells, so she is only having five made! Eeeek better get in QUICK. BUT If there is enough demand, she will have more made, which we all know will happen, so adorable.
The response I get will also influence whether she does the same with Bikkie. Which is further down the post, so cute you wont want to miss a look see….
If you’d like to make sure you snag him, you can PRE-ORDER Sammy right NOW WHOO HOO by clicking here, and expect him to ship within 2-3 weeks. So RUN don’t walk to snaffle yours up today!
This particular stamp costs $9.00 USD because it is slightly larger than Hansel (measuring 2.995″ by 3.615″) and thus costing more to make. Marina will keep the price at $8.00 USD or even less whenever possible….
Sammy with Ball will also be available as a DIGI after the rubber version is officially released. In addition, one (1) Sammy with Ball DIGI will be given away to a random commenter on this blog post HERE…. You might just be the lucky gal or guy to get Sammy weeks before anyone else! HOW exciting is THAT!
Shy Sammy will be released on Tuesday, July 27th, as a digi. Mark your calendars! =) And keep an eye out for this little guy…

Hansel is giving flowers to Create 4 Fun Challenges, Stamp Something and Paper Romance Challenge
Good Afternoon All,
Well this post has taken me about 3 hours to finish now, lol, thought I might scroll back up and add that to begin with…. And my explanation…. 3 girls, haha.
Well it’s funny but as much as the colours from Paper Romance Challenge are not my style, I loved using them and so when I was thinking last night what to do next………….? I thought of Hansel in those colours and for the first time ever I made an circle easel card, thank you Pink Lady, Debbie Pamment *link in sidebar* and her easy to follow tutorial! So Hansel as you know is playing along with Paper Romance Challenge of Chocolate, White and Teal. He’s been picking flowers to play along with Stamp Something and their challenge this week is Flowery and with Hansel and his bunch of flowers and the webster bloom I think I covered it, which means I also covered Create 4 Fun and their challenge this week is Flowers….. So here is my card….
Stamps : Hansel from The Stamping Bazaar and Sentiment from All That Scraps.
Papers : Kraft, Cocoa Cardstock, Prima, Websters and October Afternoon…
Other : Websters Bloom Flower, Cream Lace, Ribbon, Magnolia Vintage Tag and Tilda Lace Doohickey’s, Martha Stewart Butterflies Punch and Brown Ribbon.
So there you have it my very first circle easel card and I can see many more coming it was FUN, simple and easy to make but so effective! Smaller space to and so great for that little quick card, although there ain’t nothing quick about this lol, still took me a good hour or more.

WELL you might had noticed another blog change! Poor Heather she is absolutely amazing and when I seen all the new headers she was pumping out and they have like a whimsical look and I LOVED my old header and when I asked, just asking Heather, but ummm if I were to say etc etc she came back with this response and I am in LOVE all over again WOW, and THANK YOU again Heather! That’s not all you’ll be seeing from her
Well I best get all the uniforms ready for tomorrow and what not, bit of a lazy Sunday happening here and hubby just got home so girls are all over him, hehe Daddy’s girls for sure!

Can you HELP me….Pretty Please?
Good Afternoon Everyone,
No card per say at the moment but it’s crafting related non the less, lol! I have always wanted a Making Memories Desktop Carousel and was going to get one last birthday from hubby, but something over road that, forget, mmmm maybe cuttle bug or was that year before, hmmm either way something crafty, lol! Now I finally can get one only to find out they stopped making them NOOOOOO…. And have spent way to much of my day googling trying to find just one. But thought maybe, just maybe someone might know a of hidden place I am missing that has them online? I have someone that has offered to check their local craft store for me, but if you know of some place online I would appreciate so much and then some more! It look like this……
Thank you SO much in advance for taking the time to help me….
