Cold & Cuddly

This is a card I made for a Swap I was in. I LOVE this card. When I seen this set, I knew I had to have it. I had this image in my head for some time and finally got it on paper!! I think of this card as a fun one that will bring a smile to whoever sees it. I was so excited about this one that I even sent it in to Stampin' Up! I hope to see if on the Stamper's Showcase one day. Enjoy!

Cute As A Bug

This is another Club card. We had a lot of fun coloring this little guy using our ink and blender pens. The texture on the Crushed Curry and Bermuda Bay card stock is done with the texture plate and Big Shot. After we made this card, I showed them how they could use this template to create a scrapbook page....very fun!

Give Thanks

This fall card was one we did at Club this month. It is using the baby wipe technique and a little 'thumping' with a marker. I used More Mustard and Ruby Red re-inkers, added a few drops here and there just so the blend at the edges. You don't want to drop the ink on top of each other or you may end up with a 'mud' look for color! I used the brown maker to fill in the trunk of the tree and touched here and there on the branches. I used the Always Artichoke maker to 'thump' in the leaves, as I did not have the A.A. re-inker.

Cracked Glass Technique

It has been a long time since I have used the cracked glass technique and decided this was the perfect image for it. My Card Club will be making this card at the end of the month. I hope they have as much fun making it as I did!

Thanks for looking!

Marker Club

Marker Club

Join a Marker Club to get all 48 ink colors (markers) without making a large purchase all at once. The only way to get the big storage box for all of the markers is to order the whole set. We need 4 people to start the Club & then we’ll order 4 times & split up the markers between the four people each time; you get the Marker box when you are the hostess. Cost is $36.37 per month, per person. Each member is the ‘hostess’ once. When you are hostess, you could earn a free Level 1 hostess set of your choice, and $15 in free merchandise simply by adding outside orders to reach a qualifying workshop of $150.00. For more information, please contact me.

Would you like $50.00 in FREE Stampin' Up! merchandise?

50/50

Would you like a chance at $50.00 in FREE Stampin' Up! merchandise?

Beginning today, June 9th, I am offering the 50/50 chance! Here is how it works; for every $50.00 you spend in Stampin' Up! product (before S/H & Tax), your name will be placed on one square of the 50/50 grid. Once all 50 squares are filled, I will cut out each square and have a drawing. YOU could be the lucky winner of $50.00 in FREE SU merchandise....but only if you play!!! Please note: if there are only a few squares left, I will fill the spots with the first qualifying orders handed in w/pmt. The other qualifying orders will be place on the next 50/50 grid.)

Candy Bouquet

I wanted to share with you the candy bouquet I made for a bridal shower. After searching for ideas on the internet and coming up empty, I turned to my Stampin' Up! products. I used the Big Shot with the Daisy Die and Scallop Circle Die, bright color cards stock, and a few clue dots. I used floral stems and wrapped them with floral tape. Then I attached the candy by wrapping one of the twisted ends to the stem. I attached candy kisses to the scallop circle die flowers using glue dots. After I placed the flowers in the bouquet, I used curling ribbin to fill in. I filled the base with some clear rock and added the left over candy on top. Once I had the idea, the rest was simple! Thanks for looking!!!! :)

Hi,

You may make as many of each card as you would like. Cost is $1.35 per card. Please RSVP with class fee no later than April 15th as I will need plenty of time to order supplies and cut out your cards!! :)

If you plan to attend all day, you are asked to bring something, it could be as simple as a bottle of soda or a bag of chips.

FEBRUARY STAMP CAMP

WHEN: February 7th
TIME: 10:00 am & 3:00 pm
RSVP: January 23rd
COST: $20.00 prepaid (by Jan. 23rd)

Join in on the fun!!! Sign up now to make this fun message board, caddy and 4 cards. Here is how it will work.

Order a package of Designer Series Paper from the new Catalog, a $9.95 value, (included in class cost) of your choice. You will use less than 1/2 the pack for these projects so you will have plenty to recreate these, and more, at home! If you would like to copy mine exactly, I used Sweet Always DS paper. I will coordinate the ribbon and cardstock as best I can to match the SD paper you chose.

You will need to bring your cutter (or you can use mine), as I will be teaching you how to cut these pieces so you can recreate them at home! Many of you have asked for help with cutting so here is your chance!!

RSVP anytime between now and Jan. 23rd. I know...I know...you need/want your catalog!!! I will get it to you as soon as I get them. I should have them by the end of next week or Monday at the latest! Once you have your catty, contact me with the DS paper you chose. I'll place the orders for this Stamp Camp on Jan. 23rd.

As always, please bring your favorite adhesives (tombow works best for the 3D projects). If you have any questions, give me a call or drop me an email.

Sign up now, space is limited!!
