Well, they're not far away -- in fact, you can shop ALL the kits currently available by clicking the image above or HERE.

We many wonderful kits to choose from; some are "all inclusive" meaning your stamp set, a stamping block, and ink spot are included, making it super easy to share creative fun with your friends.  I love these kits for trips, and to share creativity with young people as well.

And starting tomorrow, October 6th, our annual "Tag Kit" is being added to the selections!

Yikes!  While I've been trying to get my arms wrapped back around things around here, I somehow let World Cardmaking Day fly right by me!!!  (October 2nd, 2021).

As those who have participated before know, I like to do a series of card tutorials through the day on World Cardmaking Day over on the private DDS Dabblers Facebook group.

Sooooo . . .  we're going to have a World Cardmaking Day "make up session" - this coming Saturday, October 9th!!

Want to join me for some fun?  Ask to join the DDS Dabblers Facebook Group and join us for some fun, easy cards featuring the Textures & Frames Sale-a-Bration stamp set.  We're going to use "fresh" feeling color combinations focusing on our In Color collections, and keep it simple and easy so you can whip these cards out in no time!!

And I will be giving away one Textures & Frames Stamp Set at the end of the weekend!!

 

Hope to see you there!!!

 

We'll be back with a pretty Fall project -- and our 12 Weeks of Christmas card designs kick of later this week!  So stay tuned!!

 

I Love to hear from you.  Leave your questions or comments below!!

Hello Fellow Stampers ~ 

 

Wow!  It's been an interesting week this past week.  I apologize for kind of "disappearing."  That was not in the plan.  I'm continuing to struggle with some dental issues at the moment, and teeth issues just seem to cause me to not feel well.  How about you?  I'm heading back to the endodontist this afternoon to see if we can pin down where the pain and discomfort is eminating from.  Cross your fingers that we get this figured out quickly so I feel better and can get back into that Studio.  Things are waiting for me!!  LOL
