Flowers, Comment winner, and Snowcouple

My flowers are very pretty right now. I love these. They come back each year and don't require much care. 

This is a new plant arrangement that I am trying this year. It seems to be working well. The plants in it are doing well. The top one and the bottom two are plants that I kept over the winter in the basement. It took them awhile to adjust to the outside. Now that the weather is warmer, maybe they will start to fill out and do better. It is a fun arrangement and take up a small amount of room. 

The winner for the comments this month was Linda for her comment on June 27th. She won some little tags. They will work in nicely in her scrap books.  All comments between now and the next Stamp Along will be in the drawing on August 11. 

This is the snow couple that I took along to the Late Night Stamper event just before convention for one of my show box swaps. They were a big hit. They are made using the envelope punch board.  If you would be interested in making them, let me know. If enough are interested I will do a class. We could pair them up with another one of the projects that I received in exchange. 

Convention was amazing, as always. I hope to share some of the pictures I took at the event, the swaps, and the giveaways. 

Tonight I am going to bed. It was a long day! We got up at 3:00 to get to the airport only to wait for the employees that didn't get there until 5:00 to check us in for our 6:30 flight. We got home late afternoon, tired but happy. I still have lots of unpacking to do.
