Puddle Jumper Blog Hop - Day 2

Are you ready for Day 2 of the

Claudia and Company March Release

of the

Puddle Jumpers Blog Hop???

We are very happy about bring you Day 2

and

super excited about getting to introduce another Puddle Jumper!!

His name

NOAH

Isn't he a doll?!?!?
I designed him to favor Claudia's very own little sweetie named...Noah!!

These stamps are made of deeply etched red rubber.

Mounted on quality cling cushion foam, ready to be trimmed to your liking and then popped onto an acrylic block for you to stamp away!!

Another fabulous fact about these stamps is that when you purchase a Puddle Jumper you are actually getting 2 stamps in 1....A little cutie pie and their sweet friend!!

The Pink Elephant and Die Cuts R Us

Yep, I have been super busy!!

And therefore...my TPE and DCRU posts are a bit behind schedule!!

Are you all getting excited about the
Puddle Jumpers at Claudia and Company!?!?!?
I sure am?!?!?

Thanks Jodie for sharing your adorable stamps with us!!

Die Cuts R Us

This week the DCRU Design Team is challenging you to use your left overs...BUT...there is a catch...you can't make it look like a Valentine!!

That's Right... create a

Not so Valentine from Valentine Leftovers

Hey...they don't call it a challenge for nothing!!

The Design Team worked with My Mind's Eye - Be Loved Collection. The great thing about this paper collection is it's versatility. It was perfect for all those Valentine Love Cards, but is beyond perfect when it comes to being usable for other occasions, events and theme!!

Pictured below is DCRU's 6x6 paper sampler pack; this week's sampler pack features Be-Loved papers...yes again, but with a new paper combination. Looks more like everyday paper now, doesn't it?

Be Loved new 6x6 Sampler Pack

A great base and/or accessory for the Be Loved Collection is

Be Loved Collection Coordinating Prism Cardstock

Hope you all find time to join in this week's Fun at TPE and DCRU!!

Claudia and Company NEWS

This has certainly been a month and a half, full of adventures...not only was every member of the Boyd Family violently ill with a terrible stomach virus (which caused my Sweet Ella and Landon to end up in the ER), a few days later my Mom was admitted into the hospital for several days with Stroke like symptoms (Thank You all for your prayers. Her doctors said that due to Insomnia, Diabetes and Chronic pain from a botched shoulder surgery this past summer her body simply tried to shut down on her. She is slowly but surely mending...Praise God!!)....but I also have been blessed with the opportunity to work

with a great great friend Claudia of Die Cuts R Us.

She has started a brand new stamp business...Claudia and Company!!
I have designed a brand new stamp line called

Puddle Jumpers

Cute name huh?!?! Imagine little toddlers jumping in puddles!!

My wonderful friend, Terri named them for me!!

Too cute...thanks Terri!!!

We have a fabulous line up of Design team members!!!

Tori Wild

Sandra MacLean

Risa West

Jen Shults

Donna Wardle

For the last few days, we have been showcasing a few snippets of the Design Team's cards.

Here is a sample of what you will find:

You will also find details about our upcoming Release and Blog Hops!!!

I hope you all love the Puddle Jumpers as much as I do!!
