Monday Montage 158

Wouldn't that be great if there was a national holiday every month???  I could totally use an extra day off work every month.   You know its Presidents Day when your mail and TV ads are for furniture and electronics!  I hope to spend the day from work tackling a few more boxes/bins from moving and trying to work out a team building activity for about 30 people.  Don't ask how I got that assignment  PHHHHT!

Welcome to the Monday Montage Blog Hop.  I hope that you find something that inspires you to create!

So, one of the stamp sets I fell in love with right away was the Honey Bee Bundle.  The sample card in the catalog was so darling.  Little did I know that after I got it and started to see all the cards being made with it all I could picture was the Utah State Motto and Emblem

Trust me when I say that the beehive emblem is all over Utah. We are the Beehive state. So that being said, every card with the beehive started to remind me of the emblem I see everywhere.  The last thing I wanted to do was create a card that looked like some image pasted on a poster or door knob here in Utah.  I have left out the beehive for now.

Stamps - Honey Bee
Ink - Black  
Paper - Very Vanilla, Basic Black, Basic Gray, Crushed Curry, DSP Regals
Accesories  - Stitched Rectangle Dies, Layering Circle Dies, Stitched Shapes Dies, Detailed Bee dies, Linen thread, Wink of Stella

I love poppies!!!  Even though they are not in season, having these dies, stamps and papers allow me enjoy them all year.  They can go from elegant to super whimsical.   I love the two tone leaves and the border lines on the poppies.  Allows for all colors.  The sentiment ties in to the poppy that is for remembrance.

We Create Blog Hop – Have a Heart

I always celebrate when we have made it through January.   It seem like such a hard month to get through.  It seems to be the coldest, grayest, and recovery from the holidays.  Today is sunny and in the 40's which is practically shorts weather here in Utah.   Although Mother Nature is sending another snow storm to compliment the Monday commute to work.

First weekend in February is also a chance to watch the last football game of the season.  Super Bowl Sunday.  
We will worship at church in the morning and then come home to watch football, and relax a bit.  We are serving up Cuban Sandwiches, Veggie plate, Chips and dip, and Buttermilk Crunch cake with berries for dessert.


Thanks so much for joining us on the We Create Blog Hop.  We hope you will be inspired to create a project of your own!  We are hopping with hearts today.  

I resurrected my puzzle pieces stamp set for the card today.


Stamps- Love You to Pieces
Paper - Whisper White, Real Red, Basic Black, From My Heart Specialty DSP
Accessories - Real Red Flirty Flamingo and Call Me Clover Stampin' Write Markers, Puzzle Pieces Die, Stitched Shapes Die, Detailed Heart Die, Subtle EF
