This box is such a cute little size! I used it to put goodies in for a teacher Valentine. I hope you all had a great Valentine’s and hugged the ones you loved!!!! We ended up at my daughter’s school for public speaking. She did a speech on "her little sister"…it was so cute to hear her talk about the baby with such love. Children are so precious!!! It’s certainly busy having 3 of them…but, so great to see how much they love each other. I was worried that the age difference would be hard for them (My first two are 7 and 6…and the baby is 10 mos) but, they really do love each other and get along well!

Have a HAPPY STAMPING DAY! Josee

 

My Family Frame-aren’t we cute?

 

Wow! What a busy few days!

Last Thursday was a snow day, gotta love that Ottawa Weather.
Friday was playgroup with the baby and PD day for the older 2.
Saturday I got the kids stamping at a really fun Mom & Me class and that evening  we went to the Stittsville Parade of Lights. 
Sunday was Church and then Skating with my oldest.
Monday was Science Fair for my oldest. 
AND today….was time to catch up!!! Believe me…I’m not even close!! 

I did get some stamping done today though…and I thought I’d share.  


(Inspired by Janice Weightman)

Isn’t it cute? I just love it, I hope you do too! (Don’t forget to leave me a comment, I’d love to hear what you think).

I used the All in the Family Stamp set that SU is featuring this month…don’t forget that I have a 15% off special on this stamp set and there’s only a few more days to order it. Click HERE to see why SU is featuring this set…it’s really a great cause.

BTW, I still have 4 more featured stampers coming up…I just have to finish their write up’s, so keep an eye out for them!

Have a HAPPY STAMPING DAY! Josee
