A FUN SURPRISE!

I have to tell you about the coolest thing that happened yesterday.

UPS dinged my door bell and since I had not ordered anything recently, I was like, hmmmm . . . I went and got it and there was a box . The box was addressed to me and was from Prism Papers. Inside was this huge block of paper (3 sheets of every color in the prismatics line) and another pack of some prismatics and a swatch pad. I was drooling when I opened it. It is seriously the most gorgeous paper. WOW!

It turns out that Prism Papers will soon be sold on the Hanna Stamps site and a wonderful girl named Jamie at Prism Papers sent out a designer block and swatch book to each of the members of the Hanna Stamps Design Team. (Thanks also to Kristi and Tami) We are all so excited about it! How wonderful!!! I hope you are super excited about this news too! I sorted my pack yesterday by colors and it looks so pretty in my drawer -- now I just have to work up the courage to cut into it . . . but that shouldn't be too hard since I have three sheets of each color in their line now, so I don't need to hoard it so much. New Hanna stamps are on their way to me too, so keep an eye on my blog in the next week or so for some previews for the next release! The new stuff will be available on April 4th. In the meantime, check out the blogs of some of my fellow design team members . . . they have lots of fun stuff for you to see and drool over! Oh and Tami Mayberry did a really cool color matching of Prism and SU papers on her blog -- go see that here: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3

My Decade Later Comeback and Playing Catch Up

Hello friends, It's been awhile and I kind of dropped off the face of the planet since moving to Oregon. I got busy with growing four babies into teens, and attempting to hold together a marriage with a partner who was working out of town for the most part. It was a lot! Truth be told, I have been spending most of my time over on Instagram which allows for more quick picture and caption posts (@the.amanda.sewell), but I really, genuinely miss having a journal of our adventures, so I'm back.  Some changes, my ex-partner moved out in October of 2023 (after 23 years of marriage, who would have thought?) and I am on a new, single mom adventure with the fabulous four. Luckily, they are adjusting to the changes well as we navigate this challenging time as a family team. Things are still in flux and hopefully at the end of all of this, the dust will settle and we will end up landing on our feet. Because of this change, I needed to go back to work and after not working for the past lo...

Hey guys! Happy 2010! I was so not ready for vacation to be done when I had to send my kids back to school yesterday! *sad face* We had such a fantastic break! Guess what though? Lots of fun stuff for you today! First, HAPPY 8th ANNIVERSARY TO MY CUTE, CHARMING, and WONDERFUL husband! I am seriously the luckiest woman! He is so good to me and makes me laugh and smile!

(SSD014) - Ear Infections and Pneumonia

I apologize for my late posting today . . . the countdown to being 40 weeks preggo continues.  This week has been crazy out of control already, and it's only Tuesday!  YIKES!   Friday night Baby E was running a fever and really congested.  We gave him tylenol/motrin, but he would not take in fluids, and I was worried about him, so I slept on he floor beside his bed (stupid thing to do at 39 weeks pregnant).  Anyway, I cried a bit, and when I woke up in the morning, I had the most intense pain in my right ear ever!  Seriously OW!   Saturday, Mic took the baby to the pediatrician, where he was diagnosed with double ear infections, and pneumonia -- he had a breathing treatment there, and an antibiotic shot . . . and his lungs were sounding much more clear when he left.  Late Saturday night his fever broke, much to our relief.   Sunday was an okay day, mostly we just all rested -- an interesting thought occurred to me while I was on th...
