Now on to the card kit! For whatever reason Canada Post is taking FOREVER to get me my packages again - so I wasn't able to post this last week when it all went live - but it's still available and I've had a lot of you asking where my unboxing video was!

So here's my Unboxing video of the May kit!

 

You can watch in HD over on YouTube HERE <-----click!

And here are all the links!

I get asked a lot about where to purchase the supplies I use in my videos and blog posts. I list all the supplies I use at the end of my posts (below) or in the description box directly below my video on YouTube. If the products  have little icons below the image it means there's more than one place it can be purchased. You can hover over the icons and it will tell you what store that link will take you to. Compensated affiliate links used when possible at no extra cost to you. Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home with my kids! I appreciate your support more than words can say!

I occasionally receive product for free from stores/manufacturer with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love. Everything else I purchase myself!

Just a heads up for those that aren't on my Facebook page or follow me on Twitter or Instagram: you might have missed me sharing the NEW Limited Edition Mother's Day Kit from Simon Says Stamp! Their Limited Edition kits sell out VERY quickly (within hours usually) and are not part of their monthly subscription.

SSS Haul(s) | Doodlebug So Punny, SSS, Mama Elephant

Happy Friday!! I have a TON of errands and whatnot to run today - this week was rather crazy! I have a post and video up on the Honey Bee Stamps blog for their blog hop today, and was a guest designer for MFT this week as well. Don't forget that I did the big WaffleFlower blog hop yesterday, and I was the host for this week's Color Throwdown Challenge!

Yeah - crazy busy week lol. I'll have videos coming to my blog and channel for the Honey Bee and MFT cards I've made (plus others I've filmed and haven't had a chance to edit yet) but for now how about a haul video?!

Oh it's still Monday - but it's been a productive Monday (for me anyway!). If you missed my earlier cards and video you can check out that post HERE:

 Lawn Fawn Rawr Heart Shaped Cards | AmyR Valentine 2018 Series #13

SO - I don't know what is going on with USPS and Canada Post the last month and a half or so - but tracking is a mess and orders are either taking forever to show up or show up out of sequence. I know I'm not the only one with this problem as I've had a lot of you messaging me and leaving comments. I have no idea why it's happening and it's frustrating!! My orders ARE showing up though - I have yet to ever have an order get lost/disappear (and FYI if you're Canadian and ordering from the US it CAN take up to 4-6 weeks. Though honestly I usually receive mine within about 2 - maybe up to 4 at the latest which a couple that's definitely taken the full amount of time for whatever reason). 

Anywho - all that complaining and disclaimer over with lol now I can get to the fun stuff:

SSS Haul + GIVEAWAY!

Hello everyone!! One of my orders from all the fun of the Black Friday sales showed up, as well as some items that were sent to me - so I combined that into one "haul" video (though I tend to ramble and share ideas in these videos - it's not all just "look at this" LOL!)

ALSO - since it was a great sale I thought I'd pick up a couple of my favorite stamp sets from Simon Says Stamp, and give them away to one of you! I REALLY appreciate all your support, the encouragement and comments and whatnot really make my day. Stay tuned to the end of this post for that give-away!
