I totally forgot to post this - ooops!

One of my special ladies ordered this stamp from me the other day - I'm guessing that since St. Patrick's Day 2011 has come and gone, I'm going to have the pleasure of seeing her create some fabulous scrapbook pages soon :-)

Gift Tags With Space To Write In......

One of the things that always bothered me was when I used to write on gift tags, there was never enough space to write a message and as our family grew, there wasn't even enough room for all the names..........


.... Problem solved, I make my own and I can coordinate them with my parcels depending on the color paper I'm using - it's easy to change them up a little with some glitter here, a different ribbon there, or an extra layer of card and they are soooooo easy to make.

We usually give our teachers a sweet treat as their Christmas gift, but this year we're going to make packets of tags for each of them - I can't wait to give them this special Thank You!
Oh yes and we're making them at stamp club tomorrow, along with our gift card holders.

I love the look of dry embossing, but I don't like how time consuming it is - Now I'm done in seconds thanks to my Big Shot. I used the new Textured Impressions Embossing Folder Northern Flurry 120902 $7.95 - Holiday Mini Page 26.

Halloween Stamp Club - Repeat

I posted this a while back, but since we are so close to Halloween, I wanted to share it with you one more time.....

This card was created for my ladies totally, totally inspired by a box of absolutely fabulous new products that I received in the mail from Stampin' Up!

When I saw the witches boots and tights in the stamp set "Wicked Cool" Page 23 I knew I had to order it and of course I had to order the coordinating ribbon......

Now what's Halloween without a few bats and an owl? I had to order our fabulous new Bitty Bat punch and Two Step Owl punch......

I created a notch for the owl to sit on, so that he stands up when the card opens.


One of the things that surprised me was the reaction my ladies had to using our new clear stamps, the loved them and were genuinely impressed with how well they stamped. If you think you know how clear stamps stamp, think again - Stampin' Up! have hit the jackpot once again.

I've already switched to clear stamps and after the original investment of the clear blocks, I'm now looking forward to huge savings when I order stamps, since they are a lot less expensive and I'm already loving how easy they are to store in their unified DVD size boxes - Fabulous!

Thank you stamp club for giving me a reason to have so much fun being creative with all my wonderful new "toys".

Holiday Color Inspiration

This year sees a fabulous new collection of Holiday colors, I just love this one, trouble is, it makes me want to eat chocolate, I have no idea why, but I'm glad winter is coming, because you know what they say...... "Eat chocolate, calories keep you warm".......

Workshop Fun

When my good friend Terri asked me to do a workshop for her, I decided to make a scrapbook page part of my demonstration.

Terri is a huge scrapbooker and it gave me the greatest pleasure to hand this completed page to her (one of the benefits of being a hostess with me).

Of course at a workshop it would be too time consuming for everyone to make scrapbook pages and so we made the coordinating card.


When I designed this page for Terri, I was thinking of her beautiful daughter who was little more than a wonderful toddler when we met and is now blossoming into a beautiful High Schooler. I imagined Terri using black and white pictures to show how her daughter has changed (black and white because she wouldn't have to try and coordinate clothes from times ten years apart) Black and white pictures will really pop with these colors .....

Yikes, I couldn't believe it, last week Terri called me to say that they are moving to the other side of the country, I'm thrilled for their new adventure but so sad that they won't be close by.
I guess the title of this page was just about perfect!

Things that really made this page work well for me were the fact that we now have a butterfly punch, so I didn't need to cut out all the butterflies. I love how the polka dot ribbon mimics the polka dots on the little butterflies. The saying in this stamp set is more poignant than I could have imagined and I love that I could use my Autumn days stamp set on a page that reminds me of Spring.
