A Day of Creating

Well things have been crazy around here-I am getting ready for Stamps for the Cure. This is our yearly fund raiser for the Susan G. Komen Foundation; the ladies in my up line and I all get together and spend a day with all our old friends and the new ones we make, making cards. This year we added a night event Crop Till You Drop-so that you can bring your scrap booking stuff and get some of those pages done! This event is on:

Date: October 3, 2009

Time: 9 am - 12 p.m. and 1 p.m. - 4 p.m.

the Crop starts at 6:30 p.m. until you can not do it anymore!

Place: The Candlewood Suites - located on North Academy Blvd. - Colorado Springs Co

Cost: $20 for the Card making sessions and $30 for both the card making and scrap booking

We will also have a silent auction and lots of fun - all proceeds go to Susan G. Komen. I look forward to seeing you there!

Now what else have I been up to-well I have creating some things...I made a birthday card for my friend and one for my sister in law.

All supplies for these projects are Stampin' UP! The card uses the stamp set Country Morning (level one hostess set-Not Quite Navy card stock-Very Vanilla card stock-Bella Bleu DSP (113974)-Water color paper (105019)-Various colors of Water Color Crayons-the ribbon was was from the Ribbon Originals Elementary (116231)-and some Linen Thread (104199)-

Its Digital Time!!!

Well after spending countless hours trying to learn how to use a computer, I have started a new challenge, My Digital Studio from Stampin' UP. This software allows me the user to create scrap book pages and albums using all the same supplies that Stampin' UP has to offer. I was scared at first and had to delete a lot of pages-but after some time I am starting to get it. This software will be available to the public October 1st. If you would like to check it out call me or email me and I will be glad to help you.

It's About Time!

Last week I finally got a chance to play in my Stamping Room and I created the following card:

I had to have the Herb Expressions Stamp set (113224-32.95) so out it came . I love the look of the herbs and the saying that come with this set. I stamped the image onto confetti white card stock using Stazon. I then used the blender pens and colored in the image. Then I broke out the Big Shot, I love this tool; taking the Finial Press embossing folder ,this item is exclusive to Stampin' UP and a must have in your stamping room, I emossed the Lavender Lace paper. This give the paper a great texture.

I then stamped a butterfly and attached to the card. Finished if off with Organza Ribbon.

All items used on this card are found in the Stampin' UP Idea Book & Catalog 2009-2010 here is a list of the items used:

Great Friends Stamp Set -113792-17.95

Stampin' UP Finial Embossing Folder-115963-7.95

Organza Ribbon - 114319 - 5.95

Big Shot Die-Cut Machine - 113439- 99.95

You can use any color paper and or ink. I used a blender pen to color my image.

Back from travels

Well I am now back from Bermuda and its time to get Stampin'. I have so many projects to get started on for the holiday season. Well on vacation I cam across some great ideas for gifts as well and will start putting those together soon. This picture shows the fabulous sunset and my good friend Val.

At this time I am working on getting my class schedule up and going and out to my many customers. These classes will include: Scrapbook classes, a holiday canvas class, tile classes and yes Christmas Card classes. If we start now Christmas will be a stress free time. I can teach how to make gifts for under $5 per person, even Wal-Mart cannot do that!

I would also like to THANK all my customers and supporters for all you do for me. I love teaching you a great craft and look forward to coming up with new ideas for you!

Here is a card that I have made prior vacation:

I used supplies from the new Catalog and just played around with water coloring and some brads. I love the Ivory Hardware on this picture it gives it a great look.
