My Thank You cards

I received alot of little gifts from my Kindergarten students and needed a bunch of thank you cards. Of course I have to make them myself! Thats why I have all these stamp sets and stack of cardstock!! I really enjoyed making these. I used my Big Shot and cased this design from Inking Idaho. I kept the color scheme, but used the designer paper and ribbon that I had on hand. The stamp I used is from one of the hostess sets that will be in the new Spring/Summer Stampin' Up! catalog. You can get you new catty from me January 18th!(I'm hoping, lol).

Love You Much swap

This month the SASSSC girls are having a valentine card swap. This is my card. I made it using the set, paper, and punch from SU's Love You Much bundle. It is not an orginal idea. I pretty much cased it from this card I saw on SCS. I used Purely Pomegranate, Pretty in Pink, and Close to Cocoa cardstock and ink. The ribbon is nonSU and so are the heart shaped rhinestone and flower bling. I colored the love with a blender pen. The Love You Much bundle is availabe for purchase until January 31. Use item number 115405 and get 20% of the regulare 51.85 price. That would be $41.48 for the set, punch and paper! Its a deal.

January Stamp Club meets the 9th and the 10th

Happy New Year! to all my wonderful Stamp Club ladies! You are the reason I love sharing what I do. Your encouraging words and praise make all the hours of prepartation worth it. Of couse I love what I do also. I'd be stamping no matter what, but being able to share it with you makes it that much more fun for me! With the current SU Love You Much bundle special, I thought it would be fun for us to make a project using those products so you could see just how pretty the Candy Lane designer paper is, as well as how versatile the stamp set is! Plus I love the new three heart punch! You will too! Pam and Lynn are our January hostesses.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

I got home last night from my Chirstmas trip to D.C. to visit the grandkids. It was a wonderful trip. I will share photos another time. Today I want to share the beautiful handmade cards that I received from many of stamp club members. You gals did a great job!

Boxes and Bags class bites the dust!

December is such a busy month for everyone: party, party, party! Due to everyone who had signed up to come to the box class e-mailing me and saying they can no longer come to this class BECAUSE they have to PARTY, I am forced (lol) to cancel. It wouldn't be much fun by myself!
But have no fear, club members, we will be making the bag in a box at club this weekend. See you there.

Twilight

Have you joined the Twilight craze? I've read all four books and just loved them. Whoever said this is a teen series were wrong. Of course I loved the Harry Porter books too.
If you are planning to see the movie, read the book first, the movie will make more sense. I saw the movie with my 11 year old neice. Of course, she and her friends are all in love with Edward. And, yeah, me too. How wouldn't melt at his smoldering looks! See for yourself!
