Welcome and Hello again!  I’m excited to share what I have been up to in the past few years but I’d like to start by saying that I have been working on getting my blog back up and running in the past week by adding newer blog entries. The current subscribers from back in the day received a dozen or so email notifications from me. I apologize for the slew of recent emails and for the few silly test posts too…I’m sure you were thinking ‘what on earth’!! LOL. I hope you like the new digs and design of the blog.

Anyway, my new adventure is joining Stampin’Up! and becoming a Demonstrator and so far really enjoying it. I figured I’d better get the old blog going again since I have received so many enquiries.  I even started doing Youtube videos. (my channel is BearyWishes).  I’ve been focusing on sharing alternate projects using the Paper Pumpkin kits and may expand on creating card kits using the lovely new stamp sets.

I received my little haul of Stamping Up goodies yesterday from the 2017 Christmas catalog and since I put the finishing touches on my blog yesterday and it was ready to be rolled out.  Thought I’d take a few snap shots of what I picked up and will be sharing the coming weeks. I also picked up just three of the new Designer Series Paper (DSP).  I really didn’t want to do it but I cut them up into 6×6 sheets.  I don’t normally do this but it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be!

Aren’t they lovely? Here’s a shot displaying both sides of each of the three DSP’s and I also picked up the 144111-Be Merry DSP from the Annual catalog. The three new DSP’s from the 2017 Christmas catalog are:

• 144629-Christmas Around the World
• 144613-Painted Autumn
• 144610-Spooky Night

There are a bunch more DSP sets from the new catalog that I didn’t pick up and now think I should have!  Albeit, wouldn’t you want to get your hands on any one of the three new DSP’s I have here?
To celebrate…..I’m throwing a…

Long weekend and Blog Launch party!!

If you place an online order of $75 or more in my shop, not only will you receive the August Host Code Gift of either Glitter Gems or Rhinestone Jewels, you get to choose one of the three DSP’s I’m offering (or the Be Merry DSP). Each set has one sheet of each design. Please make sure you enter the Host Code in your order.

A bit of bad news tho, if you pick one of the three new DSP’S, you will have to wait until next month to receive it because the new catalog won’t go live until then but as a valued customer of mine, I will also include a copy of the 2017 Christmas catalog.  I will do my best to have it mailed out to you along with your goodies right after the new catalog launches (Sept 1). Unfortunately, this offer is available only on Canadian orders.

A few things….should you happen to venture into some of my older posts and wondering about my past adventures.  With respect to my BearyWishes Digital Design online shop, I have put that on hold for the time being and links will go to the shop, however will display a ‘maintenance mode’ status. Upon changing to a new ISP, the shop unfortunately did not survive the move!  I hope to have it back up one day!  As for my doodling…I’ll be sharing some free digital images now and then.

To wrap it up, I look forward to becoming your Stampin Up Demonstrator and hope you will consider me for your next online purchase.

Thanks for stopping by!
