Open House January 5, 2017 Showcasing New Products

On January 4, 2017 the new Occasions and Sale-A-Bration catalogs start.  I have been busy making cards and scrapbook pages with all the wonderful new product.  Nancy Thompson has been busy as well.  We can't wait to show you all the wonderful new products.  We will have an Open House at Nancy's on January 5, 2017 from 10 am until 2 pm at 1856 Hartford Path.  We will have a free make n' take, lots of samples, paper shares for purchase, and new catalogs for you of course.  We hope you can join us.  You can sign up for future classes also.  Sale-A-Bration is my favorite time of year.  With each $50 purchase you get to pick free product from the Sale-A-Bration catalog.  Who doesn't like free stuff.

Now a little bit about these cards.  I made these 3 cards with one of my favorite new bundles, Custom Tee Bundle #144724 for $45.75.  There is a Tie Dyed set #143008 for $27 that work well with the bundle.  In addition there is a Sale-A-Bration item #143356 called Designer Tee that has addition t-shirt sayings.
 What I like about this bundle is it works well for men, women, and children.

This card would make a great Valentine card.  The heart was created with the Tie Dyed stamp set.  The Designer Series Paper is #142733 $10 for 48  sheets of 6" x 6" paper.  The bottom card the yellow background was created by the Tie Dyed set.  I hope you can join us.  If you are unable to come but would like the new catalogs, contact me today.  Happy Stamper that's me!

Some 3 D Fun Christmas Gifts

                                 Here is the cute UPS truck Carol made for each of us at the Team lunch.

                                        Shirley made these pretty clips for everyone.  

I picked up this dome ornament at Joanne's and filled it with snow and a gingerbread house I made with the Home Sweet Home Thinlits and Sweet Home Stamp Set.  It was so much fun to make for my teaching partner Nancy Thompson.

Merry Christmas- Team Christmas Cards

 On Monday December 19 my Team gathered at Legacy restaurant in The Villages for some Christmas celebrating and a Christmas card exchange.  I will try to remember who made each one but the memory is not what it was.  I hope you enjoy the cards.  They are all gorgeous and made with love.  The top card I believe was made by Carol Heisterkamp.  Sorry Shirley I am missing your card.

Canal Street Rec Center Class December 22, 2016

 These top two cards were taught by Nancy today.   The bottom two cards I presented at class.  I cased the top card from Ann Schach and the bottom card from Stampin' Sucess magazine for demonstrators.  These stamp sets will be available January 4.

Canal Street Class December 8,2016

 My first card was inspired by a piece of wall art I purchased on my recent trip to China. I used a retired embossing folder since I wanted a brocade fabric look.  The stamp set I used is called Artistically Asian.  I used Basic Black, Mint Macaron, Whisper White, Very Vanilla.  The bottom card I cased from Pinterest. I used Star of Light stamp set.  I used Sweet Sugar Plum, Soft Sky, and Whisper White cardstock.

The bottom 2 cards were taught by Nancy.
