Who do you craft with?

#loveitliveitshareit

Stampin’ Up! is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. One of the ways we are celebrating as a company is with the theme “Love it. Live it. Share it.” I’m blessed to be able to do all of these things nearly everyday in my job as a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator. Some of these days involve more of the “share it” making these days extra special. Today was one such day. 

I spent the morning with one of my favorite “littles”. Ainsley is on spring break from school, so she stayed with me while her mommy went to her little brother Ben’s and Griffin’s “Spring Hat Parade” at their preschool. I’m not sure who had more fun, them or us.

Our morning started with a yummy yogurt snack Ainsley brought for us. We chatted and planned our craft project for the day. We decided we’d make an Easter banner for her family since theirs kept falling down. Lol. She keeps it real! Their banner says “Happy Easter” so ours needed say something different.  We chose our colors, got out our tools and supplies, and got right to work. Of course, to us it doesn’t really feel like work when we are having so much fun doing something we love. PS…We did have to text Ainsley’s mommy to tell her not to pick her up too soon. 

Take a look at a few of the pictures from our time together and the banner we made. I think you’re going to like it and what it says. Ainsley was very excited to hang her Easter banner up at home to surprise her dad and her brothers.

Ainsley’s a very good Big Shot Operator!

A treasure to take home…Clear Faceted Buttons. You would have thought I was giving her diamonds!

Our completed Easter banner!

The Easter banner is now hung up (and it’s not falling down). Ainsley looks so happy and proud in this picture her mom sent me. I’m sure 4 year old Ben and Griffin will be excited to see it!
