That's how Karen at Sugar Nellie put it anyway.
Because, yep, you gotta take the bumps with the flowers. And luckily I do have a very lovely "garden". :)
What the heck am I talking about, you say?
Well my new Sugar Nellie Stamps, of course.
Karen is having a blog hop today in honor of the release, and wait until you see all of the wonderful things these talented girls have created! You can start the hop here.
There are 8 images in this first release. You can see/purchase the rest of them at Funky Kits. I'll also be adding a link in my sidebar so you can pop on by there anytime.
Thanks so much to the girls at Sugar Nellie and all of the stampers who made my images look so good!
I didn't read the post before this one until now. I am sending loving thoughts and hugs. I have every confidence that you and Mike will work together to find a great solution to this "bump." I wish there was something tangible I could do. If there is, please call on me!
ReplyDeleteNow on to some happy news! Your stamps!!!!!!! I love them! I just went to the site to see them all....wow!!!! and this is a first release? that means there will be more too??? I am going to do a bit of housecleaning (took the day off for that purpose) and then as my reward I am going to go on the blog hop. Can't wait to see what people have done with your stamps!!! Then with next month's allowance...I will have some Diane Duda stamps too!!!!!!!!! I am so happy for you! May the success keep rolling along!!!!
Oh, you know that image of the girl floating on her air mattress in the pool???? Did you ever think of making that one into a stamp? I love her!
Wanted to say how pleased I was to learn your designs were being made into stamps....have loved the blog hop and I've already ordered the upside down girl before I even started on the blog hop!.....I want that stamp.......I need that stamp :)LOL
ReplyDeleteI know how distressing your bad news is...my DH has been there (4 times!!!) it never gets any easier.

These are the cutest things I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteI'll be going on the hop today, for sure.
*I remember how hard it is when hubby loses a job...when we were young and before retirement, it happened to us ...several times. It is never easy and always scary but God ALWAYS comes thru for you. Just hang in there with your fabulous attitude and all will smooth out.
hugs, bj
O what are they great. They really look lovely just like your paintings. I think a lot of people will enjoy them and your girls will travel all over the world to make people happy with some nice cards.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Diane! :) I'm heading over there now. I'm sorry about your other news, but it looks like there are still great things in store for you! :) I wish him the best of luck as he discovers his next path...I'm sure it will be even better than his last one! :)
