April 9 - Packaging

Yep, I'm a HUGE dork sometimes. Especially when I get a box of Stampin' Up! orders. I LOVE cutting rubber. So I cut all of the sets that leave my house before they get delivered. There is nothing better for me than sitting in front of the television at night and cutting down the stamps so I can mount them. Audrey loves it too and always tries to help, cracks me up.

I also love packaging the orders up. Sometimes I just don't have the time to do it, but when I do I love finding creative and fun ways to package up my orders. All Stampin' Up! supplies on this one.
