SETTING GOALS

I have lots of things on my to-do lists – crafting list, demonstrator list, mum list, work list, horrible jobs to do around the house list …. some of these I get to quickly and others just seem to linger [like the ‘need to clean the windows’ job].

…and I must confess I am very easily distracted.

So when the quarterly Stampin’ Success magazine arrived, every other goal went out of those dirty windows!

Some of you might be asking “What is a Stampin’ Success magazine?” … it is one of the many benefits of being an Independent Demonstrator with Stampin’ Up! … it is a colour magazine brimming with amazing project ideas and information about products, demonstrators from around the world, techniques and lots, lots more.

My goal was to create every project in the magazine!

My crafting goal was achieved … well almost. I completed 34 of the 35 projects in this quarter’s Stampin’ Success magazine [the Sweet Little Kitten card will have to wait – the ironing just wouldn’t go away!]

So that’s – 30 pairs of cards and 4 smaller gift card pairs … I transformed any non-card projects into cards and have the magazine version and an alternative … and for the few stamp sets or DSP used that I didn’t have in my collection, I substituted and was pretty close. [very embarrassing that there were only a few that I didn’t have – sshhh – don’t tell my husband!]

I will post images of my favourites another time!

mmm…TIME FOR SOME CHANGES

I have taught myself something new … how to change web hosts and transfer most of my previous site’s posts and information into my newer WordPress.org platform.

You will see some slight changes to font and colour and bits and bobs … and I am looking forward to playing around with this to make things more interesting …

I have even added the current Stampin’ Up! catalogues as widgets in the sidebar [a whole new technical language!]

Look forward to any of your feedback about what I can do to make mmmstampintime even better!
