Not to long ago I found the online stamping community. I was so overwhelmed by all of the amazingly talented stampers out there and so very grateful to find so many willing to share their talent. New to the stamping world, it was such an open, warm place. How exciting to find so many new friends and so many wonderful challenges.
(This one is from CHA last summer in Chicago. I was so excited to meet Sharon there. Isn't she beautiful! She's seriously just one of the nicest people you could ever meet.)Holy Moly! What an amazing person and such a talented stamper. I love her perspective on all things stamping and so love her enthusiasm for this 'hobby'. When I found her challenges I was so excited to play and can still remember the first card I posted and her kind words to my humble card. She made my day! I was so happy when Sharon asked me to be part of her team in April of 2008. That was one of the happiest stamping moments for me. I called my stamping friend Amy and think I may have screamed in delight in her ear! Poor Amy! ;) Now here we are all celebrating 100 challenges with Sharon.
I absolutely adore Sharon. She's one of the most wonderful people I have had the pleasure to meet and am so very thankful that she is doing what she does.
Thank you, Sharon! Here's to many more! Keep 'em coming, cause we love them so much!
This week in celebration of this momentous event we are all creating birthday cards. I decided to use the Papertrey kit that I got at CHA in Florida a few weeks ago. I seriously LOVE this kit! It's so beautiful. Here's what I created....
(We are just going to pretend that the candy box is filled with beautifully covered nuggets. The painters are still here (we are painting...the house is total chaos) and I didn't have time to make it to the store.)....and now.....for a little something, something from me to celebrate....
How about your own little PTI set? I just so happen to have an extra!
How fun is that! This kit is so super beautiful. If you would like to be entered for a chance to win this kit please just leave a comment to let me know. I will draw a name on Sunday, August 16th.
Now head on over to the rest of the team to see what fun goodies they have in store for you (and when uploading to use the keyword ssnotime100....
