More 'Good-Bye's!

HI!

Today I wanted to share another cute retiring set with you.

Each  year Stampin' UP! makes an exclusive stamp set from which sales from that set go to the Ronald McDonald House Charities.
This is this years Ronald McDonald stamp set- 'Turtle & Co.'
It is a set of 9 that includes:  a stack of 3 presents, a snail, a frog, a turtle, a birthday hat, clouds with a heart in it & words- 'hippy,hoppy, happy hello!; sorry I'm late......happy birthday wishes!; hope you're back on your feet soon!
$3.00 from each stamp set sold will be donated to the Ronald McDonald House Charities to help support families & children who have serious illnesses.
Together we have already contributed over $1,00,000 to Ronald McDonald House Charities.

We race tonight in Bloomfield.
Today I will be working on putting new pre-order items on my shelves & removing retiring items.
Plus have 30 cards to get done & in the mail tomorrow morning for Kelly's swap.
And I need to get figured out what I'm doing for projects for my upcoming Open Houses!!!
And I have to get May BD cards done.....YIKES!

Yesterday we got my air conditioner in my Stamp Studio & new rods put up to hold more punches.
(Thanks to my wonderful husband for all he does to help me!)
We did our tour of Keokuk County & went to cemeteries to put flowers on our loved ones & friends graves.
Plus we checked out everyone's corn & bean fields along the way.
Then I delivered stamp orders & visited a few customers & one downline.
I came home & we made lettuce & dumplings for supper.
Then I worked on organizing my new ink pads & color caddy.
And we went to bed early.

Our internet was down all evening, so happy it was back up & running now for me to catch up on things this morning.

Have a great day!!
ENJOY!
Happy Stamping!

The top flips up & the bottom is a door that comes open.

Just something different & fun!

We are working on some "honey dos" around here this weekend.

Thankfully I have an amazing husband that is talented & can do things like that.

I have a long list for him to do.  

I am going to OWE him big time!

I have one of my New Catalog Open Houses here next Saturday- so he is trying to get an air-conditioner installed so it won't be too hot in my Stamp Studio.

Plus we got some more new rods for punches & a few other little things too!

We made a trip to one of my favorites stores last night- Menards!! 

Hope you all have a great day & enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend.

Check back again tomorrow for more ideas.

ENJOY!

Happy Stamping!
