HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Welcome to 2022. Each new year the first thing I must accomplish is to remember to use the new numbers. Do you find that it's difficult not to continually remember that the new year means you must write the new number...2022, not 2021. I seem to just start to remember the new year's number when it's changing again. Like the saying, "the days are long but the year is short".
And today brings the ending of the Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini Catalog for 2021. It's sad when one ends, especially the one for the holidays. The anticipation for Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas, always seems to bring me joy and excitement for all the wonder of the seasons. The ending of the catalog reminds me of all the things I planned on doing over the holidays and yet, just didn't seem to find the time to do. There's so many projects I planned to complete, but just didn't have time. Well, next year...
And so with a heavy heart I begin to look at the new catalog...and as I glance through it, I realize there's bright colors and flowers and happiness and excitement starting to flow through me again. Winter will soon be Spring! No more heavy clothing (yes, even in Florida, where I live, we wear sweaters and even sometimes coats!) But Spring brings flowing clothes, sandals, soft and bright colors! And summer soon follows with sunshine, blue skies, sandy beaches, splashing in pools, picnics in the park, and cool dips in the lake...yeah! I'm excited to get started on Valentine's Cards, Easter Cards, End of School projects...Wow!
The new catalog to be released tomorrow brings all of that to us. All the beautiful colors shown in Rainbows, beautiful delicate flowers, and playful animals swimming in the cool waters. This week I'll show you some of the new stamp sets and dies and gorgeous Designer Series Paper that are included in the new January to June 2022 Mini Catalog (JJ 2022 Mini). If you don't have a demonstrator and would like to receive one, please leave a comment below and I'll send one out for you to see the delights of Spring and Summer 2022.
Here's a taste of some of the cards I'll be posting here...
