I've always been fascinated with photography. It's amazing to me what a great story can be told in just one picture...

So I realized yesterday that I had just put up my 600th post! Woo Hoo! I figured that we ought to CELEBRATE!Last year about this time I was clueless about what to do for my Christmas card, so I had a contest. This card was the result...

StampMonkeys I've just announced my 2nd Annual Christmas Card Contest on my blog! You'll eventually see the post here so you'll have all the details. YOU get to pick the stamp set, technique, and color combination of my Christmas cards! It was so much fun last year, I had to do it again. (Plus, I'm clueless as far as deciding what to do this year! Again!) Check it out - it will be a fun contest!

Yet another GREAT thing to love about Stampin' Up! is our PUNCHES!I have used punches from many different manufacturers. When Stampin' Up! came out with the latest "thumb press" design a few years ago, I couldn't use anything else!Here are a few reasons why I only use Stampin' Up...

Just a quick note - in case you missed the deadline to sign up for the Holiday Card Stamp a Stack, there's still time! I have a few spots available for both the afternoon and evening sessions...

StampMonkeys Anyone still interested in the Stamp A Stack next Saturday? (Nov 14th) Even though we're past the sign up deadline, I do have a few spots still available for both the afternoon and evening session. Send an email or give me a call if you are interested!

If you happen to know anyone who has the Swine Flu, this card would be perfect for them, don't you think? I know it would bring a smile to my face!The advantage of having a ton of punches is that you can make just about anything with them...

I'm sure that I'm not the only one who needs help during the holidays to figure out what gifts to give to my family and friends - right? Every store I've been to in the past week has their own "Gift Giving Guide" available now - even drug stores! Stampin' Up...

In case you were wondering why I've been posting every day for the past few weeks...and even if you weren't wondering...November is National Blog Posting Month...

I wish I could remember where I saw the card that gave me the inspiration for this one. It's a perfect example of how all of our products coordinate together and the result is FABULOUS! Don't you think?I love how simple it is, yet it's really a pretty card...

StampMonkeys November's newsletter has been slightly delayed by the fact that I have to grade mid term projects at New England Tech. Look for it (hopefully) later today! :) (I know....I'd MUCH rather be finishing up the newsletter!)

I couldn't let the day go by without putting up another card that we're going to be making at the Holiday Stamp a Stack Buffet in a few weeks.I just love this bird! (Can you tell...

Just checking in to let you know that I'm giving myself a "stamping time out" today. There are lots of fun things to announce, but I'm hanging out with my family today. Check back tomorrow for all the fun news! :)
