inspire – create – share – final touches on my stampin’ studio

As we prepare for Thanksgiving tomorrow I wanted to post the final touch to my Stampin’ Studio – this room is the culmination of almost 25 years of so much fun and blessings –

I take the time today and tomorrow, as we all pause to express our thankfulness – time to reflect and give thanks for all the blessings in my life – my husband of 35 wonderful years, my 4 boys and my bonus daughter, my dream home on the lake and my wonderful Stampin’ Up! career and customers that I have been blessed to serve and teach as I enter into my 25th year!

Thank you for all the blessings in my life I look forward to continuing to CREATE and SHARE and INSPIRE!

Thank you to 3C Graphix for the great work on my new banner to complete my dream space!

I told my husband I had one final project for him – I needed to hang something and needed his precision and expertise! He is a measure twice -oh maybe three or four times to be safe LOL and then cut!

When I told him what I needed – he was happy to use his new ladder and measure it all out for me!

I asked a local graphics firm near me in Meadville called 3C Graphix to cut and put together our inspire- create – share banner that has appeared on our catalogs and promotional material for Stampin’ Up! for many years in white vinyl.

They did an amazing job and my husband did the rest measuring and getting it centered and straight on the wall above my IKEA Kallax unit wall!

The final portion was up to me burnish the vinyl with my bone folder and attach it to the wall and remove the sticky paper that holds it all together!

I was thankful for the library ladder and the fact that I am not afraid of heights LOL

I finished the project and the wall is now complete!

These organizational bins were an amazon find and I will be sharing them on my website soon.

They are perfect for the new Stampin’ Up! packaging!

Next time you are in the studio for class – look up and see the inspire- create – share on the wall above us all!

That is what I hope to do for all of you – every day – bring beauty and creativity into your world and inspire you to send your artwork out into the world to inspire and share with others!
One card at a time – we can make this a nicer place to be!

Thank you for supporting me – continuing to come to class and allowing me to inspire and fill your world with my art!

These organizational containers are amazon finds and fit perfectly the new Stampin’ Up! packaging. You will be able to find them on my website in my favorites soon!

Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow – I hope you all are surrounded by family and friends tomorrow and that your day is filled with great food and love and laughter!

All my best to each of you!

Happy Stampin’
Natalie
