More Perfect Partners - This Birthday Piggy

Perfect Partners
Hello friends!

Happy Labor Day! Here in the states, today is a national holiday to celebrate the hard working folks that keep our industries going. It also marks the end of Summer, which is always sad to see go. We had a low key day here. It's one of those rare occasions that both hubby and I were off together, unfortunately, he worked a 16 hour shift last night so didn't get home until this morning. He's been doing a lot of those lately. Apparently, the department of corrections is short staffed these days. So the guys there are having to pick up the slack. Poor hubby is napping as I type this, trying to get as much sleep as he can before it starts all over again tomorrow. 

Anyhoo, this week I am focusing on another of the Perfect Partners bundles, This Birthday Piggy! OH MY GOSH! These guys are too cute for words. Of course, I love piggies anyway...I have a small collection of stuffed and ceramic/porcelain piggies all around the house. 

This Birthday Piggy fun fold

This card is a really simple fun fold (you can watch the FB Live replay here) 
It features a couple of different techniques, water coloring and ink blending. If your a fan of the piggies, then this bundle is for you. Just remember, these coordinating dies are only available for September.

New for September - Weekly Deals

 Hello my friends and Happy FriYAY!!!! I hope this finds you all well. COVID seems to be raising it's ugly head again, at least in our community. You see, during the day, I'm the Infection Prevention nurse for our nursing home and I monitor community rates and they seem to be on the rise. It's my job to keep the ugly beast out and should it find it's way in, keep it from spreading. 

Weekly Deals

Anyhoo, yesterday, Stampin' Up! announced that for the month of September, they are going to have Weekly Deals. Yesterday marked the first week of deals. Then on 9/8, 9/15 and 9/22 new deals will take effect. This is exclusive to the month of September. (Who's been around long enough to remember when Weekly Deals were continuous???- Me! - that was fun) 

Weekly Deals 9/1-7

If I had to choose just one of the sale items this week, I would have to choose the Splendid Day Specialty DSP. That DSP is GORGEOUS with a capitol G! The colors, the shimmer, it's just beautiful. My next recommendation would be the Brushed Brass Butterflies. They make such pretty embellishments. They're simple but elegant and make a great addition to almost any card. I find I reach for them often. 

What's your favorite deal this week? Feel free to tell me in the comments?
