In my last post I talked about how I loved the Sweet As A Peach stamps and dies from the 2021-2022 Stampin' Up! catalog, but I didn't include any samples. Oops! So here are some of the things I have made so far. I went into Halloween mode and then Christmas, and now I am beginning to make valentines, so I figure I will get back to the flowery stamp sets in March. The Sweet As A Peach bundle has not only peaches, but flowers and leaves as well, and the Designer Series Paper that goes with it is so beautiful. I love everything about this! I made a bookmark for my husband, Andy, which he promptly lost, lol. I think it is under his end table, and one of these days I will find it. It's kind of girly, but he doesn't pay much attention to that. And, the tag that is posted next may have been what I gave him; my memory is pretty bad these days.

Stampin' Up! Sweet As A Peach Samples

New Cards Using the Wonderful New Stampin' Up! Products
I think that Stampin' Up! has outdone anything they have done previously. The Pansy and the Peach collections are amazing, and I can't get enough. And then there is the Meadow set with dies, I have more new stamp and die sets, but I can't get to them because I can't stop using these three.
Stamping has been a lifesaver to me these past almost three years, and lately I have been able to find more time for it, finally! Things have somewhat settled down, and I am not quite so busy around here. (Edit: That situation didn't last long. I am run off my feet and have been for several weeks.) I finally found valances for the windows, so everything is done except for the front room and fixing all the things that they did wrong. And that is a long list!
So here is what I have been doing lately.
I have a lot more cards to show, but will have to do another post for that. This post has been sitting here waiting for me to finish for weeks, so I'll just quit now, and put some more cards on later.
Blessings,
Janis

MY LATEST CREATIONS SINCE MOVING BACK IN...
So we have moved back in our house as of the end of June, but is it finished yet? No. No it is not. We have hired a new contractor and I have high hopes that he will finish soon, but he is very busy since he is the only person that has a good reputation that I could find. I had high hopes before, and that didn't work out for me. Oh well, at least we are here and things are beautiful! I love my furniture, and I love not having as much stuff in this house. I will post pictures in a week or two.
I have been very busy unpacking and doing other stuff that I would rather not have been bothered with, but I have spent some time here and there in my studio. Stampin' Up! has been coming out with the most wonderful stamps and dies, and I could sit here all day long and make the Little Treat Boxes. So cute!

MY FIRST CHALLENGE ENTRY
The requirements were:
I had already used the Stampin' Up! Subtles embossing folder with silver foil before and loved it, so I knew that was going to be my background. After I finished the card, I realized that I had made something that was impossible to take a picture of. I finally ended up with one halfway decent picture, but it isn't the greatest and doesn't show the sparkle on the snowflakes, which were cut out of white glitter paper.
The home for this challenge is: http://www.asyouseeitchallenge.com/2020/01/challenge-216-recipe-for-sparkle.html
And here is my entry:
