New Stuff! Turtle & Co. 3 ways!!!

Is it just me or did June disappear REALLY fast this year? I had all these plans for stamping and blogging and holy cow, I lost an entire month!

In good news, I got a box full of new catalog merchandise today!!! So of course I stamped all evening and had a really fabulous time.

The set I used today is called Turtle & Co. Part of the purchase price of each of these sets is donated to the Ronald McDonald House Charities. I thought this was a good way to kick off the new catalog. I have known a number of people who have received help from RMHC while their young children were being treated for serious illnesses and I know they're a good organization that is truly helping families. I'm going to buy stamp sets anyway, so I might as well help others while I'm doing it. Thanks Stampin' UP!

Did I mention this set is really cute too?
