Happy Birthday Concord & 9th

Happy birthday!!!!!  I am so proud to be asked to participate in this Birthday Bash Blog Hop.  When I heard the story of Greg and Angie, it made me heart smile.  I did meet Greg at CHA in January.  He is an awesome and sweet person. Concord & 9th has come a long way in just one year.

I know it is early for a Christmas card, but the JOY stamp set was my most recent purchase.  It is never too early to start preparing for the holidays.  The stamp set is versatile and not just limited to the Christmas.
JOY should not be limited to the holidays.  It is something that we should enJOY on a daily basis.  It is something that I struggle with.  The struggle is allowing something to rob my JOY.  Luckily, I am blessed with people in my life that are constantly reminding me to enJOY my blessings.

One of my blessings is the crafting community that supports small businesses as we grow.  When I see the Concord & 9th logo, I feel JOY that they are out there helping spread JOY by creating stamps for us.

We feel JOY when we receive our stamps.  We feel JOY when we create with our stamps and we feel JOY when we give our cards away to others.

Giveaway:  Concord & 9th is giving away a $20 Gift Certificate.  So leave a comment on what brings you JOY.   I will post the winner on the 9th.

So I hope you enJOY my video.  Happy Birthday Concord & 9th!!

  1. My JOY comes from FAMILY. After issues having a child, God blessed me with a perfect, healthy boy. I was (to say the least) an older parent by the time of my blessing. We just got back from vacation with him and his family (two beautiful boys and wife).Of course I find joy in stamping and making cards for them all, but the joy I get from them embellishes the joy that comes from my hobby.

  2. Awesome card! I get joy from the beauty of nature which is probably why I am drawn to floral, foilage and butterfly stamps!

  78. I get joy from the sun shining. Right now it is over-heating the weather but when it is milder I really enjoy being outside or being able to have the windows open. I'm a fresh-air fiend.
    It's never too early to think about Christmas cards. I usually start
    thinking about the middle of July but it's around the first of December
    when I finally settle on my final idea.
    Great card.
    thanks for sharing.

  79. My three grandchildren bring me joy! Jenna, who is 4, lives with us full time and then there is Joseph, 12, and Isaac who turns 8 on the 5th of August! Without these three wonderful human beings I am not sure my lie would be as full as it is!
    When you add in all the time that I get to craft with Jenna every day then life seems pretty rosy from where I am sitting! Even though she is only 4 she really has a great handle on techniques and can run a die cutting machine like a pro! She knows her primary and secondary colors already and we are working on the rest!
    TFS!

  85. Oh, my! So many things bring me joy! Being creative, admiring the natural world and artist's interpretations of it, laughing with my daughter and my grandchildren, cooking up the wonderful bounty of summer vegetables all bring me great joy. My sister is named Joy, so Joy abounds in our family. (She doesn't like me to "personalize" her Christmas cards with her name, so for her I use "Peace".)

  155. What brings me "joy" is bring love and happiness to others! I made a promise years ago, to
    Everyday do something even if it's small, to bring a smile or joy or happiness to another persons life. Even if it's as simple as seeing someone with a food product in their shopping cart, and I k ow I have a coupon for that item, I excuse myself and introduce myself and give them the coupon!

    The look on their face is pure shock and it truly is a pay it forward type deal, of other did this as much as I, the world be be a softer and better place to live!

    I incorporate my greeting cards that I make into this as well giving a complete stranger a card saying hey I just wanted to think about you today and give you a smile is amazing of what their reaction is !!! Give love to others, it will come back to u and ur family 10 fold! 💗💗💗
