Celebrate Independence

I love the 4th of July. I live in a town that is the perfect place for this holiday. In the morning we have a 10K run, in the afternoon we have an old fashioned parade, in the late afternoons there are parties everywhere and in the evening there are fireworks practically in my back yard.

I truly appreciate the freedom I have in my life and this is a day when you can reflect on that great privilege. I love the fact that in my town everyone is actively celebrating freedom from morning until night.

One of the blessings of my life is our talented design team. Honestly, I don't know how they do it but they continue to come up with amazing projects using SRM Stickers week after week. When I need a graphic or a sample or a tutorial, I just look on our blog and find the perfect thing time after time.

Here are a few cards from Amy Heller, a very talented member or our team to celebrate the 4th! If you want to see more cards and layouts celebrating the 4th, pop on over to the SRM Blog and get ready for inspiration! Enjoy!

You did WHAT with 1 Sticker?

About 6 months ago my life changed when Jenyfur Pohl approached me with an idea. Let's get a Design Team and show everyone how great stickers can be, she said. I agreed and the rest, as they say, is history!

I have always loved that stickers are easy to use. They are quick and easy. No experience is required to use stickers. No training is involved. For the month of July, SRM's Blog has a theme called "Clean and Simple". The idea is to show people that with 1 sticker, here's what you can do. Today is the first day of that theme and it is starting with a bang! Nina, who makes the most lucious cards, decided to take 1 sticker (the Thank You Sticker Sentiment that costs $3.00) and make as many cards as she could. Well you can see the results in the photos I've posted here today. But even though she has made 12 cards, she still has enough stickers left over to make many more. Now that's AMAZING!

And that's what people are saying all over the blogisphere. They are saying how fun and easy and simple and AMAZING SRM Stickrs are. Have you tried them yet? You need to find out for yourself, just like all of our Design Team has found out, that these stickers need to be an essential part of your crafting stash.

So hop on over to our online store and take a look at all the themes and get started. And hop on over to our Daily Blog and get tons of inspiration. And make sure to check our Flickr Gallery where there are now over 800 great ideas for your card making, layouts and altered projects.

So what are you waiting for? Let the fun begin!
