{Stencil Sunday} Artsy Stencil Fun with Leslie

 

Happy Sunday, STAMPlorations friends! It's time for another Stencil Sunday post. We have new guest designer in the next 3 months. The talented Leslie Turner will be sharing her creations that feature ARTplorations stencils. Make sure you comment on this post for a chance at a $15 prize code. Every month, we draw 7 winners, with the winners randomly drawn from all posts published during the month. The more posts you comment on, the more chances you have.

    

March Winners Post DELAYED

Hey, STAMPlorations friends. I know many of you eagerly look out for the winners post every 10th of the month. My apologies but that post is delayed.

The last 2 1/2 weeks, a family member has been ill (no, it's not Covid-19, but it's serious enough to require angioplasty and stenting) and I have been stretched thin, barely getting any rest and sleep, as I had to pile on more on my plate to keep the Russ household running on top of managing the business and taking care of 2 extremely active little girls (who always seem to come up with things that make me want to pull my hair out every single day).

I thought I'd be able to get the winners post done before midnight tonight but I'm running on empty. I'm just wiped out and desperately need rest and sleep.

So...the March winners post will be published either on Monday (4/12) or Tuesday (4/13), depending on how I do on the rest/sleep department in the next couple of days. The deadline for claiming prizes will be adjusted accordingly. Plus, you have until Sunday night to comment on the March posts for more chances at our prizes. (Commenting usually closes on the 8th but I'm extending it this one time.)

Thanks for your patience and understanding!

{Spotlight Project} Maria Makes A One-layer Card With Flexi-Templates

Hello STAMP friends! I recently got some Flexi Templates designed by my teamie Monika and I'd like to share some fun I had with them with you today in my Spotlight project. There are so many things you can do with them (check out my Tuesday inspiration posts this month for more ideas). Today I created a one layer card with lots of interest using the oval templates. Take a look.
