September

I can't believe September is already here. Where has the summer went?

Has everyone received the new Holiday Mini? Lots of cute items. Get's you thinking about Fall and Halloween. Did you see the Candy Wrapper Bigz die? How cute would that be to place your treats in for Halloween to give to your trick or treaters. You would be the hit of the block.

And how cute is that Autumn spice Designer paper?

The Candy Wrapper Bigz die could also be used for Thanksgiving to place on each place setting, with some after dinner mints tucked inside. And how cute would it be to string a ribbon inside these to make a garland to wrap around your Christmas tree. Or for a Birthday party. The uses for this die is endless.

With the holidays quickly approaching us, dates for parties are filling up fast. Call today to book your home party or your catalog party.

Send me some pictures of your masterpieces. I would love to post them on my blog.

Needing a graduation card? This is a very cute card, the graduate is made out of punches. With a little change of the hair this graduate could easily become a boy graduate.

I made this dinosaur card using punches. It's sure to be a roar with your little one.

This card is sure to please those of all ages, who doesn't love a sock monkey or remember playing with one as a child.

Have any basketball fans???? This is a great card for them. This can be interchanged with any of our sport stamp sets.

This is a very cute card and perfect for your little boy.

This card was made using the baby wipe technique. I just love the way the colors blend together with this technique.

This is the perfect card for your little robot fan.

These last two cards are very bright and a favorites for teen girls. They love the bright colors along with the butterfly's and flowers.

I will be posting ones for sell soon. If you are interested in one and would like a certain color, let me know.

Rag Purses

I spent yesterday making rag purses. These are very cute purses and are very fun to make. The squares are made using our Big Shot and Square Scallop Die. Which made cutting these out so quickly. The designs of these purses could be endless.

This is a small 6 patch purse I made last night. It is done in browns, pinks and greens.

Here is a picture of the inside of the purse.

There is a picture of the front of the purse after it has been washed. It give's it a more of a soft look to it.

And here is the other side of it before it was washed.

Will be posting more, later in the week. Keep checking back.

Greeting Cards

Spent Friday night making cards. Look at the great cards below. These are all very easily done. Would you like to learn to make on of these cards, call me today and lets set up a private class.

This card was so easy to make. These flowers remind me of tulips, which is one of my favorite spring flowers.Receiving a card like this would lift any one's spirits. I have stamped Happy Birthday here, but it could also say, Get Well Soon, Just thinking of you.
This is a very elegant card. And also could be used for several different ways. This makes a very pretty wedding card, which I used for a Wedding I attended today. I used the exact same design, and just stamped a bride and groom to the front of the card. Very easy and very elegant.

This friendship card, is going to put a smile on anyone's face, when they open the envelope.

Lisa's Workshop

Had a busy week of stamping this week. Thursday had a workshop at Lisa's house. Lots and Lots of fun. We made 2 scrapbook pages, in-spite of a few set backs, we managed to get them completed had lots of laughs and I was home before 12:30 AM. But we had a great time. Here are a couple of pictures of the pages we made. These pages were made using our current In-Colors. If you would like a kit of one or both of these pages, contact me today.

Kelly's Workshop

We had a great time at Kelly's workshop this past weekend. We made two scrapbook pages. The winner of the contents in my basket was Carla Paris. Congratulations, Carla, I know you will enjoy all the neat items that was in the basket...

This is the first page. We used the current in-colors and the stamp set, Things that I love. This is a fun stamp set.

This is the second page we did at Kelly's party. This is a spring page that was done using the Big Shot and punches. There was no stamping done on this page. I just love the picket fence. The fence post was created using our new jewelry tag punch and our word window punch. Doesn't this page just make you wish spring would arrive early.
