I Stamped Something!

It's a miracle! I was in the stampy kind of mood today.. finally! Maybe my mojo has returned! as you can tell from my lengthy disappearance from my blog, I have not been stamping much! I have scrapped a little since then, but not even much of that..

So here is my beautimous creation...



Inspired by a card I saw done by Mary Fish over at Stampin' Pretty. It was from awhile ago, but it stuck with me. I really love the SAB sets from this year. So cute and versatile! Hope my mojo sticks around for awhile, but no guarantees.. so I better get back to stampin!

As my good friend Brandi would say... Ske-Doosh!

Third Christmas SAS card

I am SO looking forward to getting together with my downline and my friends for this SAS. I haven't seen some of them since I was at my last job.. which I left last year! YAY for old friends!

But onto my card... This card uses the Big shot in a BIG way.. It is using the movers and shapers die with the holiday windows (from the Holiday mini). The ornament window along with the gold embossing gives this card a little elegance.



Enjoy! I hope to create another card tomorrow and post! see you then!

Second Card for Christmas SAS

Here is the second card for the Christmas SAS on October 23rd in Gurnee, Illinois. This card features one of the "single" stamps (and one of the best selling!) Dasher. Isn't he a lovely Reindeer?

Also on this card is the new shimmer paint Champagne Mist. It just adds a special touch to this simple card.



The card uses the Christmas Cocoa Designer paper. It has a light shimmer with the pretty white snowflakes. All of this on a Soft Suede base.

Come back tomorrow for another Christmas card from the SAS! :)

October 23rd- Christmas SAS

Hi! A coming up event for my customers is a Christmas Stamp-A-Stack. For $30 you will make 20 cards and a pack of Christmas tags (envelopes included). This event is in Gurnee Illinois. So drop me an email if you are interested in coming!

The first card is uses my new favorite accessory- the pretty petals embossing folder for the Big Shot. A little ribbon, some ink, paper and punches.. and Voila! a cute card for Christmas! It's a little elegant too.. which I like for the Holidays.

Recipe Swap 2

So here is my second swap from the SA Recipe Swap that we did back in March:



This was a fun page to create. I played with the shaving cream technique to make the "fluff". The recipe is tucked behind the cup of fluff with a ribbon pullout tab. I used the Raspberry Tart paper to create the bowl and coordinating cardstock to make the page.

Back soon! L

Recipe Swap

So glad that SO MANY of you enjoyed our recent blog hop! I enjoyed making all those lovely projects. The planner has been such a big help for me.. especially for helping me keep my convention swaps organized!!

Speaking of swaps... back in March, I hosted a 6x6 Recipe Swap. This was so much fun to see how creative my demo friends could be. Here's what I came up with:



I had just gotten back from a week in Arizona- 3 days of which were in the Red Rocks of Sedona.. so I think you see my inspiration. We had also gone on a Pink Jeep Tour so to have the dog driving a jeep in my page was "Perfect!" to me!

This was such fun to me.. lots of tearing! The second picture shows the recipe card that is tucked in behind the red rock plateau in my pic!




I'll post again tomorrow with the other page that I did for this swap! so much fun that I had to do two pages!

later!
