6x6 Scrapbook pages

I am so excited that I can stamp this week! I've worked on four two page layouts to swap with a new friend on Stampin' Connection. I hope you like them!

I'm in the Stampin' Room!

Well, I have finally gotten into my stampin' room--and realized that my husband really needs to get back to work on my Stampin' Studio! We have the ceiling finally done and we were waiting on the electrician when he got sick. He seems to be better so maybe things will start moving again if we ever get a break in the heat. My stampin' room is over flowing and I've been bringing things downstairs to the dining room table to work because I can't find any room upstairs.

I had heard about a Stamp A La Card from a wonderful demonstrator on Stampin' Connection. I'm sorry I don't remember her name. Well, I thought I would try one and I have been working diligently on the first set of cards. All of the card ideas come from talented demonstrators on Stampin' Connection. Thanks to all of you who share so freely. I don't know what I would do without you. If one of these cards is yours, please let me know so I can give you credit. When I copy the ideas I like, it doesn't print the name of the person I got the idea from. Sorry!

I have 7 of the twelve made and they are posted above. I'll share the final five when they're finished as well. I hope you enjoy them. Until then, happy stampin'!

OK everybody!
It's the day you've been waiting for. The new catalog is up and running. If you'd like a copy before my next workshop (I'm working out the details) just let me know and I'll get it to you ASAP. You're going to love what you see! I have my wishlist already started. Contact me today for to set up a workshop or to place an order.
Have a great 4th of July!

I finally made a card!

Hello, everybody!
I finally made a card this afternoon. I'm making gifts for the three wonderful ladies who helped me in my classroom this year as Room Mothers. I saw the card on the cover of the July issue of Stampin' Success and used Cheep Talk with some rhinestone brads to make my own card. I used the current In Colors as well. It's simple and easy to make--which is the only kind of card I make :)

The Summer Mini Catalog Is Here!

The summer mini catalog is here! It begins on May 1st. I think this is one of the best mini catalogs in a long time. I'll have to do a lot of workshops to earn all the stuff I want out of this one so call me to set up your in home workshop today!
I made a card using the new Sunny Fun stamp set in the mini catalog. There are also flip flops and popsicles in the set! I have a feeling I'll be using this set a lot. Happy Easter and enjoy!

A very productive weekend!

The weather made a turn for the worse this weekend so I took the opportunity to play in the stampin' room. I actually made 20 cards for a special event I'm doing with a friend (I can't post that card or I'll give away our plan) and 20 baby shower invitations. I'll post that one after the mother-to-be sees them--don't want to spoil her surprise either. So I'll post two cards I made for my stamp camp this week. I CASEd them from Stampin' Connection and now I can't find the originals to give credit. If it's your card, please let me know! I've got to get better at writing down names.

I used the Big Shot embossing dies on both of these cards. I like the way they turned out. Remember to stamp and color before putting the cardstock through the Big Shot.
Anyone who would like to have an in-home workshop, please let me know! I'd love to share the stampin' experience with you.

My hostess gift

I thought I would try the notebook in the February Stampin' Success. I thought it would make a great hostess gift. My upcoming workshop is for my daughter's dance teacher and this is just something she would be able to use. I love the Fun Flowers die that's in the Mini Catalog. I think I'll be using it a lot. Be sure to let me know what you think. Have a great week!
