Good Friday morning stamping friends. I don’t have my fun fold card for today. I’ve been running around trying to get everything ready for vacation and I just ran out of time to make my card for today. It’s been a minute since I went on a vacation, and I forgot how much I have to do. Having 2 dogs now adds a bit to the list. I have one person staying at my house with them and 2 others stopping in while she’s at work to bring them out and feed the puppy. I’m trying to get all the laundry done and haven’t even started to pack let alone pull out the clothes I want to bring. I’m trying to juggle getting everything done on top of working my 2 other jobs. I’m hoping to post my fun fold card tomorrow.

To check the status of product availability, visit the online store.

• If a product in this brochure appears on the online store and is orderable, then it’s available at that time.
