Good Friend & a Discovery

IMG_0025a Mornin' Stampers, This past week end was a Demonstrator only Shoe Box swap.  This is the card that I created for us to do.  The picture doesn't do it justice.  TRUST ME. 


IMG_0102 This picture here is our cat GATO and the fish.  We only have had the fish since the beginning of the year.  The tank is about over a month old.  What is so funny is that the cat finally realize that we have a fish.  He is so mesmerized by the fish that he just sits and watches it.  He has swatted at the tank a few times and totally freaked out the fish so much that he knocked over the blue rocks in the tank.  Too funny.  The reason the cat is so close to the fish in this picture is that we had the shredder by the book shelf for easy access but we had to move it.  Gato was getting too up close and personal with the fish.  Can fish have a heart-a-tack?  lol

A Little Something...

IMG_0044a  Mornin' Stampers! 


This cute little bag was made with the "FAMOUS" Top note die that is Exclusive to Stampin' UP.  Everyone loves this die.  It works with your Big Shot Sizzix Machine.  I am sure you will see more samples with this little guy.  :) Because I just LOVE it. 


The Stamp that says "Something for you" is from the Stamp Set called Yummy and it is only available through the end of March.  AFter that it is gone forever.  Sale-a-bration is the perfect time to take advantage to get this for FREE.  The other Stamp that you see on the FLOWER.  Is another set from Saleabration called Polka-dot Punches.  The ribbon and the paper are also from Sale-a-bration.  Yep you can get all the items in this project FREE!  


This project was made this past week-end at my uplines Stamp Camp.  I helped my upline out on Thursday designing a few projects for Saturday's Event.  After the Stamp Camp Saturday morning we did a Demonstrator Shoe Box Swap.  Oh Boy... do I have some Fabulous projects to share with you from that event.  :)


Happy bloggin'  will have more tomorrow.  :)

Another Scrapbook Page

IMG_0010b 


Hey Stampers!


Isn't this just the cutest page.  This is of my nephew Joseph.  He was turning ONE in this photo shoot.  I thought the KIWI KISS was a good choice of color for the main color.  It really makes the colors in his shirt pop. 


This was one of the layouts we did in my Scrapbooking Class.  Everyone loved how this layout as well as the others turned out. 


All supplies used are STAMPIN' UP. 


Happy Presidents Day.

Happy Valentines Day

IMG_0011a


This was one of the pages I did at last nights class.  We had so much fun creating 3 beautiful 8 1/2 x 81/2 pages. This page here is of my Mom and her husband David.  I thought it was fitting to use the new Candy Lane DSP and Love ya bunches stamp set. 


I will put the "supply list" later on today.  :) 


Here is hoping you all have a wonderful Valentines Day.  Love you All.

Good Friend

Mornin' Stampers,


These colors are just amazing!  So FRESH. 


This was for a Demonstrator Meeting make-n-take I had with some of my close demo friends and downline.  We had a great time. And learned a-lot.  The supplies used in this project is all STAMPIN' UP! 


Last night we had Club Meeting at my Uplines house.  We made 3 beautiful cards.  Those will be posted soon, I promise.  While at my upline's house a few of us helped sort through her "retired" stamp sets.  Close to a 1000 of them.  Yes I said a 1000.  Sorted into boxes, and took inventory, took pictures and put them back into the boxes.  Whew What-A-Day.  I came home and told my husband to NEVER complain about the QUANTITY of stamps that I have.  :)


Happy Stampin!  I'll be back tomorrow with another project.

Botanical Blooms

IMG_0053Good Morning Stampers!


When I first saw this stamp set in the Sale-A-Bration mini Catalog, I just wasn't sure about it.  I just new it wasn't on my top favorites to pick first.  It was actually last of all 6 of the items. 


I then realized I needed a few samples for my display board to show at my classes.  I went over to my uplines house one Monday and worked on a few "sale-a-bration" samples. 


I really like the Basic Black with the Riding Hood Red & Tangerine Tango.  The Gingham Ribbon just makes it pop even more.  


Stamps:  Botanical Blooms


Ink:  Kiwi Kiss, Basic Black, Riding hood Red, Tangerine Tango


Marker:  Ballet Blue with the spritzer tool


Cardstock:  Tangerine Tango, Riding hood Red, Basic Black, Wihsper White


accessories:  Black Gingham Ribbon, air spritzer tool


Thanks for Looking!

With a Cherry on Top

IMG_0052


This card here was a project we did at my Stampin' Up Open House last week.  This was the Hit of the class.  Even a few demonstrators loved this card when I showed it to them. 


The stamp set feautred in this card is called:  Goody Goody Gum Drop - It is a level 3 Hostess set. 


The Designer Series Paper is from the pack of Sweet Always. 


To top it off The cherry was stamped and cut out to layer on top of the Sunday and used Crystal Effects to add a little gloss to, it to make it shine!


Hope you enjoy this card and I have a few more to show you in the next few days. 


Happy Stamping!
