Our Playing in the Rain Dazzling Card Club

 

Happy Friday!!!

 

On this fun snow Friday, I have beef stew in the crockpot, and "grandma rolls" will be baking later!

 

Todd asked for it recently "before we're out of soup season."

Looking forward to it, and grandma rolls are the BEST.

They are THE REASON to make stew. ;)

 

"Grandma rolls" are named such, because Todd's grandma made these for every family dinner she came to--Sunday dinner, Thanksgiving, Christmas. 

 

They were the best and they were always perfect.

And she brought them in a little 9" round tin. :)

 

I, on the other hand, make a 9x13 pan of them--IF NOT 2!!!!

 

Mom and Dad couldn't get the recipe right.

But I asked Grandma for it and started working on it.

 

Both Liz and I were able to keep this recipe going--though mine aren't always perfect like grandma's were. But they TASTE the same!

 

LOVE.THEM.

 

 


 

Ok, I have my samples from my Dazzling Card Club that we had this week.

 

(Registration for my next one will open next week! Here's a look at Dazzling Card Club to get you ready! Click here: https://bit.ly/DCardClub)

 

This week was such a fun class!!!

A lot of it COULD go back and forth between using the stamps or die cutting the DSP.

 

You'll see some of both!

Sharing a Milkshake

 

Good morning!!

 

I'm here with my closeups from my Live! yesterday.

Share a Milkshake is a fun little set!

 

I had shared Jamie Sales' VIP cards earlier this week, and her mint chocolate chip inspired me to make flavors that I love. :)

 

So chocolate was definitely one of them!

But I also chose orange sherbet.

COLOR REFRESH coming!!

 

Hello!! Happy Monday!!

 

I'm checking in today with a little info and a project I CASE'd from a swap and used for a non-conventional Valentine card....

 

FIRST, Stampin' Up! has confirmed there WILL be a COLOR REFRESH with this year's new annual catalog.

 

That means some colors will be changing--besides the normal In Color turnover.

 

What we DO know:

  • At least 2 former In Colors are COMING BACK--Pretty Peacock and Lost Lagoon.
  • [Unless SU! intends to keep any in the CORE Collection--Brights, Neutrals, etc] the 2021-2023 In Colors are retiring BY 4/30/23. (Polished Pink, Pale Papaya, Fresh Freesia, Soft Succulent & Evening Evergreen)
  • March 29 we will have access to the Last Chance List for the current Mini Catalog and Annual Catalog.
  • After that, none of the retiring colors (or anything retiring for that matter) will be restocked by SU! (not cardstock, ink pads or ink refills) and  some items WILL run out before the end of the current catalog period.

What we DON'T know yet:

  • How MANY or WHICH colors are retiring or even which colors may be RETURNING

 

So--as we're approaching this transition period, DON'T WAIT to order your favorites or those items you still want from either catalog!!

 

 

With that in mind, I wanted to share this card we made at club back in January.

 

This Country Floral Lane DSP is adorable--and DSP NEVER carries forward with a new catalog.

 

I think I can only remember 1 exception to that in my 21 years as a demo!!

 

Thanks a Bunch (SAB), Country Floral Lane DSP, www.dazzledbystamping.com

 

These bicycles are everything!!

Oh this ribbon will be retiring, too, cuz it's in all the older In Colors.

And I just remembered this greeting is from Thanks a Bunch (the SAB Carrot set.)

 

 

Here are a couple more cards I made using the Country Floral Lane DSP I've shared before:
