Mini Albums...

2010-01-17T20:12:00.001-08:00

Here's 2 mini albums i created which hold the translucent envelopes for pictures.. you can put as many pictures in the album as you like. Very cute! They are an excellent gift idea for anyone special!

I'm Back!!

2010-01-02T10:53:00.000-08:00

This is a collage I put together on Picasa of all my cards I've created! I haven't been on here in a while so this is my funny way of catching up! LOL Happy New Year to all of you!!

Lady Bug card

2009-08-13T08:12:00.001-07:00

This week my focus will be to post a new card each day. I haven't been updating things as much as I should be, so it's time to catch up!

Thought you would all enjoy this card, kind of the same idea as my frog card I made a while back.. It's very cute!!! I started a card club this month and this is one of the cards we will be making.

My favorite card!

2009-07-02T16:47:00.000-07:00

Today I wanted to show you a card I made a long time ago. It's one of my favorite! Actually I think the Priceless is my favorite stamp set Stampin Up has. I will be very disappointed when it retires!!

Priceless Card

2009-07-01T14:35:00.000-07:00

I just love this card!! It's used with the stamp set Priceless. I used bashful blue and close to cocoa. I don't think I have ever used those two colors together before, and boy I sure will now! Amazing!!

Happy Fathers Day!!

2009-06-21T11:02:00.000-07:00

This is a card I made for my dad for Fathers Day. He loved it. U used the "Thoughts of Father" stamp set. My dad loves his old truck, so it was perfect!

Hoppy Frog Card!

2009-06-08T14:15:00.002-07:00

I am in love with this card! I made it today. Not sure where I got the template, I've had it for a long time and just never had the time to try it! I love how it uses a lot of Stampin Up punches. Perfect for any occasion!

Class!

2009-06-08T14:15:00.001-07:00

Hi there guys! I just wanted to let you know that I will be having a card class on June 28th at 12pm.. It is an all occasion card class. You will be making 5 different cards. The price is $15.00 and this also includes envelopes. I know the old price was $12.00 with envelopes, however, I have had to raise my price a bit to cover the cost of the supplies..Stampin Up has decided to raise their prices by 10% starting July 1st, which means more money for cardstock. I apologize for the inconvenience to you.. but as always, I try to make my classes affordable for everyone :)

I will have kits made for those of you who cannot make it but are still interested. I have reserved a building for the class and there is limited spaces, so please let me know if you are interested in attending. Those of you who have earned a free class in the past are also welcome to take advantage of this one as your freebie!

Clipboard

2009-06-01T17:50:00.000-07:00

I apologize that I haven't been on here in a bit. I am now back to work and busy as ever!! Today's post is a notepad clipboard I made for a special friend. I used the "Delicate Dots" designer series paper and layered the designs. After that, I used mod podge and covered the clipboard. That stuff is awesome and I am completely addicted to it!! I stamped the flowers with Petal Pizzazz from the current catalogue. After attaching them with some brads I covered the flowers with the mod podge again so they wouldn't lift. I love how it turned out!

Mothers Day

2009-05-10T06:12:00.000-07:00

This is what I made my mom for Mothers Day. It's a calendar on a clipboard. I love how the colors turned out to be so cheerful! My mom loves the color pink, so therefore explaining my color choice!
I used the calendar stamp and full calendar from Stampin Up! I love how easy it was to use! I am doing a class at the end of the month on this project as well using riding hood red and bashful blue designer series paper.

From the kitchen of

2009-04-30T14:54:00.001-07:00

I made this project for one of my classes in May. It is a recipe holder which holds 10 recipes. I used the stamp set "From the kitchen of"and also good morning sunshine DS paper from Stampin Up! The cardstock is pacific point and chocolate chip. The saying on the front is from the stamp set "Yummy" from sale a bration that just past. I will be charging $10.00 for this class.

Friendship Tag

2009-04-17T07:14:00.001-07:00

Today's post is a tag I made yesterday... I know what you're thinking, it's not Stampin Up!, well actually half of it is! LOL I used the big shot to cut the die shape out and then used a cute stamp set on white card stock. The photo corner punch added to the corners. I also used a sponge on the edges of the paper. I couldn't resist getting this stamp set because I can't tell you how many times I use the phrase "going for coffee to a friends" I was perfect!!

Ice Cream Card

2009-04-08T17:39:00.000-07:00

Today I would like to show you a cute card I made for an upcoming class.. It's my cute little ice cream card. To make it, I used the scallop circle punch from Stampin Up! and cut them in half. I also used pop-up dots to position them, but the neatest thing was the sponging around the edges to give it a nice lift. See ya later!

Coaster Boxes

2009-03-26T09:22:00.001-07:00

Hey guys! I was feeling crafty last night! My friend Meghan gave me a few pkgs of coasters she bought at Michaels. I covered them with Delicate Dots Designer Series paper and made them into boxes. I also used So Saffron and Certainly Celery Ribbon. I also got to try out the new "Oval All" stamp set and Scallop Oval punch from the new Occasions Mini Catalogue! They turned out pretty cute. A Great gift for someone!! Hmmmm Wonder who I will give it to!!

Card Purse

2009-03-24T10:47:00.001-07:00

I made this card purse today.. It turned out really well...I have decided to do a class on it..It opens up and each side of the purse inside has a pouch. One side holds 6 cards and the other 6 envelopes.
I used Kraft color card stock and Delicate Dots designer series paper.

Well, today is the day I go in for carpel tunnel surgery, so I won't be able to do any scrappin' for a bit.... I wanted to post a pic of a 3x3 card I made. I am going to the Stampin Up Demonstrators meeting on March 29th and we had to make 20 3x3 cards... So this is what I came up with! I used the new set "Comfort Foods" from the new catalogue. It is a hostess selection. Very Cute!!
I used bashful blue designer series paper and ruby red cardstock...The "Hugs and Kisses" is stamped with "So Many Sayings" which is a retired set. Anyhoo....I'll be in touch in little bit once my hand feels like typing again! :)

It feels so great to finally have my own blog! For so long, I have been admiring everyone else's websites. When I first started stamping I got many of my ideas from all kinds of blogs, but as time progressed and I started getting my own ideas, I no longer had to rely on everyone else! So I figured, why not start sharing the wonderful ideas I have created! Enjoy!
