Guest Designer- My Pink Designer June!

Hello!  I am June Houck , a proud My Pink Stamper designer. 

  A little bit about me...I have a paper and stamp addiction.  About twelve years ago my mom tried to get me interested in stamping.  I told her I was too busy working full-time to take on another hobby.  She persevered and convinced me to attend a stamping convention.  We went and I was hooked!  (Thanks, Mom!)  I now make and send cards more than I ever did before I learned to stamp.

  I did not have a lot of time to stamp when I worked full-time.  I taught middle and high school math for about 15 years.  Then our twin girls were born and I was fortunate to become a stay-at-home mom.  Then my creativity had a chance to soar.  I made the girls' birth announcements, baby album scrapbooks, and Christening invitations.  After they turned 2yo we enrolled them in pre-school.

This is their one year portrait from 2003.

  When I was teaching, I treasured the parents that offered their help to me at school.  Now it was my turn to give back!  In addition to volunteering, I try to make little gifts for the teachers for every holiday and at the beginning and end of the school year.  Now that I own a Cricut Expression, I am also able to help with bulletin boards from the comfort of my home.

  This month I have been packing our home.  In one week are moving to a town 11 miles west of where we currently live (in northern Virginia.)  We are so excited; we will have a yard for our children to run and play and a pretty view of the Blue Ridge Mountains.  I can hardly contain my excitement!  Most of our home is packed, but I have not packed one thing in my craft room yet.  I can't bear the thought of being separated from my paper and stamp sets :)

  And speaking of stamp sets, have you noticed the versatility of Robyn's My Pink Stamper sets?  Check out this School Days set:

  Did you notice "Birthday Goodies", "Celebrate", and "Party Time" could all be used for birthday and/or graduation, anniversaries, etc.?  I recently used "Wise Guy" for a card with an owl (I love owls!)   I may even use "You're the apple of my eye" for a card for my daughters; there are lots of great apple cuts on Cricut cartridges.  Today I chose "Party Time" from this My Pink Stamper "School Days" set and a cute dog from the Cricut "Birthday Bash" cartridge:

Happy Monday!  June
