KIT IS SOLD OUT!

Come back to check out the two different Card Kits you can get in July!

There’s something about this photo that just hits me right in the heart.

On the left—little Connor James, excited and nervous for his very first day of 4K.

On the right—the grown-up senior, on graduation day.

One backpack. One diploma. Fourteen years of memories between them.

If you’re a sentimental auntie (like me) or maybe a sentimental gramma or mama, you get it.

These years flew by in a blur of lunchboxes, ballgames, band concerts, and school projects.

And now, with graduation over, I wanted a way to really honor a senior year—not just in a camera roll, but in a way that tells the story of who he’s become.

That’s why I'm going back to my scrapbooking roots and I'm going to purchase the brand-new  Month by Month Album Retreat 2025 Kit.

This fully prepped kit that will be sent out and be ready to assemble.

It will contain all the items needed to create 12 two page 12''x12'' layouts.

An album is not included in the kit purchase, so if you don't already have one there are two options for 12"x12" in my Online Store to choose from - a D ring or 1 1/2'' post 12'' x12'' album.

With the purchase of the kit you'll be sent a link for the Stampin’ Up! Virtual Album Retreat.

This will be a three-day online event that is designed to help us create all the layouts using the Month by Month Album Kit.

I'm excited that it is all designed and pre-cut—looking forward to just showing up, craft alongside Stampin’ Up! staff and other scrapbookers, and relive every beautiful memory of Connor’s last year of school.

They’ll walk us through each layout, give tips, and even throw in some fun giveaways. Yay! Fun!

If you're like me, you might not be able to attend live (it's happening during my work hours) so I'll be watching the replays that are included with the Stampin’ Up! Virtual Album Retreat. 

Honestly? It feels like the perfect full-circle way to celebrate his journey.

From that first little-boy smiles to the confident young man he is now—I'll be able to capture a year's worth.

So if you’re feeling all the senior year feels like I am or have a year's worth of photos to scrapbook, come scrapbook with me too.

Let’s preserve these moments before they fade into “remember when.”

April is for Spring Flings and all things fun, but this April I will be making a special request to help two lovely ladies with their combined annual fundraising event for Karen Minor and her MS Ride and Diane Anderson's Relay for Life team! 

Karen does an annual ride with her MS Ride team to raise money to help MS research and those afflicted with the disease.

The sign above is the one she sponsored at her ride last year and tells her personal reasons for supporting the organization.

The other half of this annual fundraising event is Diane Anderson who supports Relay for Life and those who battle cancer of any kind.

Having had many people in my life who have battled cancer I know the comfort and support this organization can bring to the family and the patient.

I usually have a booth in their daylong vendor fair at a local coffeshop but the dates this year don't work for me to attend in person.

I have promised to run a month long fundraiser for both organizations by donating my profits for the month of April to be split between the two.

I hope you will help me to make the largest donation ever by placing an order with me this month.

There is no host code required (as they will be going away in the middle of month).

Any orders that are placed in my online store from April 1st until April 30th will count towards the total.

Thank you for your generous support and please encourage the crafters that you know to support this worthy cause.
