First Day of (Remote Learning) School

Only a couple of hiccups on the first day of Remote School for my youngest today.  I call it a win!  My older boys were arguing over who needed more WiFi during classes, but they seem to have figured it out.  Thank goodness because now I need it to do my blog post!

I have been busy making a cute study station for my youngest so he can work right along side of me while I work on cards and stamping.  We also did a major overhaul on his bedroom because we have a special visitor this week.

Even with all of that I was able to make a few more cards to send out to friends next week!  It feels like it has been forever since I last mailed anything out.  I have been working so hard on stocking the Etsy store that it bit into the time I spend sending out smiles.  I need to find a better balance because sending out smiles makes me smile too! 

I want to thank everyone who has shared this blog and the Etsy LISStamping shop on social media!  That really helps a lot!  Every little share helps!

Hopefully I will be able to post a few more cards to the shop today to share with everyone.  Also, the new Hello, Pumpkin! Paper Pumpkin kit is available to order until September 10thClick Here to Order!

When you order Paper Pumpkin you have the opportunity to make your own beautiful cards.  It comes with everything you need!  Scissors are really the only thing you need from home.  My customers who buy a kit can also make the cards in the kit with me in a special Facebook Live.  We will make one of each card together.  From there, you can personalize the cards and make them a little bit different to suit your needs.  Make sure you search "Let It Snow Stamping" on Facebook to join the group for updates!

Now, let's see what I've been working on.  To view my entire gallery CLICK HERE.  

I made more Sympathy & Get Well Soon cards for those who requested them.  It is amazing how many Get Well cards I have had to send out recently.  I count my blessings that I have not had to send out too many Sympathy cards.  

I love this cute little bug card.  It was so much fun to make!  I used sponge daubers to create the fun background, stamped the bugs in black, and then used an embossing folder to add texture.



I absolutely love working with Distress Oxide ink.  The background is all handmade.  I used a base layer of Dye Ink and then layered three different Distress Oxide Inks on top.  Finally, I spritzed it with water to blend the Distress Oxides together and to create the watermarks.  I needed a few more masculine cards and those backgrounds were a perfect fit for the map stamp I had in my stash.

I hope you will take the time to find all of the above cards in the Etsy LISStamping shop.  Please don't forget to share the links with friends on social media today!  Just click on the icons below!
