On Stage Atlanta

Here's some recent pictures from the On Stage Atlanta Stampin' Up event I had the opportunity to attend with other Stampin' Up demonstrators.  The top picture is left to right me, Deb Pippin, and Jan Hoyt.  The middle picture is a picture of the table with new product hidden in the box. The bottom picture is Mary-Elizabeth Crane and I.  We had such a great time!  It is so fun to attend these events and be the first to see new product, swap with other demonstrators, and just talk stampin'.  Contact me today to find out how you can attend next April.  I will be attending in Savannah, Georgia.

Golden Birthday

Today is my cousin Robin's daughter, Hannah's  golden birthday.  They celebrated this past weekend with a trip to The Big Apple.  I thought this birthday required a very personalized glitzy card.  I used gold glimmer paper to cut the scalloped oval, letters, and flower from Botanical die set.  I stamped the Look Who's turning words with VersaMark ink and heated embossed with gold embossing powder on a new stitched oval whisper white piece. The stamp set is Number of Years.  I used a 4 x 5 1/4 piece of  Neutrals Pack DSP .  The center of the flower I used a gold metallic enamel shape.  Place an online order today by clicking shop button at the right using hostess code VR747AB7 

Home Sweet Shack

I purchased this Home Sweet Home stamp set and Home Sweet Home Thinlit Dies a few weeks ago.  I made one Halloween House that I raffled off at class.  Friday my friend and team member Marjean from Maine joined me for some crafting fun.  These are  the 2 houses we cased from Pinterest.  The fishing shack Marjean created for her husband's birthday.  We stamped the bear from Bear Hugs.  We water colored the fish.  The top beach shack is my favorite. We stamped the lines on the die cut house in Marina Mist Cardstock with chocolate Chip Ink.  We used retired burlap frayed ribbon for the roof.  I made a mistake and used the wrong die for the window(it was the frame).  Marjean suggested putting window sheet behind to hold the frame in place.  My team ladies are so smart!  Marjean said we need a surf board.  I dug through my scrapbooking stuff and there was my quickutz dies for the umbrella, crab, and a surf board and the perfect size!  I love how it turned out.  Not sure what I will do with it but it is so stinkin' cute!  Maybe I will get around to making some Christmas Gingerbread Houses.  I am so attracted to stamps and Christmas ornaments of edible Christmas cookies and candies.  How about you?

Canal Street Class November 10, 2016

These are the 2 cards I taught at class on Thursday.  The top card I used Sahara Sand, Chocolate Chip, and Cherry Cobbler Ink.  The card base and banner the cookies sit on is Cherry Cobbler.  I used retired Chocolate Chip ribbon.  The second card used Badges & Banners stamp set and the matching Best Badges and Duet Banner Punches.  I love how easy and convenient punches are.  It was so nice that we didn't have to jump up to the Big Shots for a change.  The colors on this card are Night of Navy and Crushed Curry.  We colored in with the Crushed Curry pen and a pair of rhinestones give it just a little needed sparkle.  This was such a fun card to make!

These next 2 cards were taught by Nancy.  She used Santa Sleigh die set.  She cut all the deer out of Copper Foil sheets for everyone.  The Mint Macaron  background is from You've Got This.  The greeting is stamped with Versamark ink and heat embossed with Copper embossing powder.  The last card uses Paisleys & Posies stamp set and Paisleys Framelits Dies.  It can be purchased as a  bundle #143515 for $45( save 10% with bundle).  The colors are Dapper Denim, Delightful Dijon, and Mint Macaron.  Check back tomorrow to see the sweet Home Sweet Home Houses I made with Marjean on Friday.
