Clubs return!

I'm so happy to be starting up the clubs again this year! 

I've decided to try something new this year..... A Product Club! Thursday Sept 18th 7-9pm at my house. 

 I'm able to offer great projects that I haven't been able to offer during hostess club. Make great projects and leave with product to create at home! 

The cost of this club will vary each month depending on which product is used expect to spend $25-$35 each month. This months club is $34.44 ( cash or cheque only). 

We are using blendabilities this month. So you will need to select your color choice by Mon Sept 8th as you will go home with a 3 pack of markers and a Memento ink pad.

Learn how to use these products in so many different ways! Can't wait to show you how!! 

Contact me today to reserve your spot! 
Sept Product Club:

Hostess Club is returning Monday Sept 22, 7-9pm at my house. 

 Come and make some great projects and take turns as hostess! You must commit to a minimum monthly order so each member can earn hostess benefits, free merchandise!! Depending on his many members join it could be $25 before shipping and tax each month for 8 months. (Less members and the minimum dollar amount goes up). That would give you $35 in free hostess dollars. 
In order to keep on offering great projects a $5 class fee has been added to cover supplies. 

Contact me today to reserve your spot as hostess!  
Sept Hostess Club: 

Looking forward to another creative year! Hope you will join me!

July's 3x3 thank you card

I haven't made too many 3x3 cards lately. I love them and They take no time to whip up! This one was made as a thank you to my ladies who placed an order this month. 


I took pictures of two different cards. As they all turned out a little different. Inspired by a card on Pinterest, I used the new hexagon hive framelit as a template to sponge coastal cabana ink. I also used my favorite gorgeous grunge stamp set. The little hello is from the stamp set honeycomb hello. The small white hexagon is one of the cut outs of the framelit and the larger basic grey one is from the hexagon punch. Oh and for a little bling, I used the in color sequins. A must have!!

Teachers gifts!


Vanessa graduated from preschool and I wanted to make something special for her teachers. I found a great tutorial on Pinterest of course!! Here is the link: http://www.skiptomylou.org/2009/07/17/how-to-make-a-simple-reversible-totebag/


They are reversible, but I prefer the pop of color in the inside! The cherry cobbler and daffodil delight fabric is Stampin Up! ( now retired) 

The key lanyards I have made in the past but never with a ruffled trim. That was fun to do and I think they turned out cute!! 
I'm sure they will be put to great use by two busy teachers! Thanks for 2 great years!!

Birthday cards

My daughter had two birthdays in one weekend to attend. Both with different themes. The first was a Hello Kitty party so I searched the internet for the perfect easy card (as again I waited till the last minute to make the card!!)
She turned out so cute!! This was a CASE of stamp with Tami here us the link to her card:

The next party was a Frozen Party. Let me tell you, you can't find Frozen merchandise anywhere here!! 

I found Olaf on Suitably Stamped here is the link to make here card: http://disneysuitsme.blogspot.ca/2013/11/olaf-is-in-house.html?m=1

He was fun to make. My only regret is I didn't make more as I'm sure there will be more Frozen parties to come!! 

Playing catch up!!

The last few months have been busy! We moved at the end of April after 13 years in our house. Our house sold in a few weeks, thanks to my brother. And we had a little over a month to pack and move to our new house. Our new house is perfect for us! I'm still unpacking and my craft room is a mess! (I have a lot of stuff!!!) 
I had my stamping ladies come in June for our last club meeting. We made 3 cards using new in colors and new stamps. I got some great ideas from Pinterest since I was short on time. 
Here is what we made: 
As you can see I had a whole polka dot and chevron theme going on! Love how they turned out! 
Now I've got the summer off to organize! 
And play around with my new stuff! 
Hope you enjoy your summer!

Birthday Banner Card

I used the largest banner framelits to create this card. With the Sale-a-bration Sweet Sorbet DSP and the decorative dots folder on the envelope (also a Sale-a-bration item). I love the pool party emboss powder and it is perfect for this stamp set. Starburst Sayings is my new favorite stamp set. Love that it has matching framelits! You can find these in the Celebrate the everything catalogue available till June 1. Happy stampin'!!

March stampin club projects

This month we focussed on the scallop tag topper punch. So much more then just a tag punch! Here is the card I came up with. I used water color paper for the tag. And look you can emboss the gold foil paper (love that sale-a-bration decorative dots folder!)
Our second card was a case on Pinterest  of Kylie Bertucci only I used the tag punch to create the tag layer. The white layer is from the caulk talk framelits. 
And finally we used the scallop tag punch to creat this card. This card is also a case from Pinterest by inkypinkies. Really fun to create this card and love the sweet sorbet DSP from Sale-a-bration. 
Hope you loved Sale-a-bration as much as I did this year only a few more days to earn free product!

February's Club projects

Love is in the air! Yes my love for this new Fresh Prints DSP!! Love it!! The first card is a sun burst technique. The rose is made using the spiral flower die. 

Had to make this little envelope with the envelope punch board. It took me a few tries to get the size I wanted. The paper measures 3-3/4 x 3-3/4 and your first score is 1-3/4 in the envelope punch board. It will get you the perfect size to place your love note in! (Love note white is 1-3/4 x 2-7/8. Red is 1-7/8 x 3 )
Love the sale-a-bration decorative dots emboss folder too!


Hope you have a fabulous February!!

January catch up

Happy New Year!! I finally feel like I'm back in the swing of things after the holiday! ( and it's almost the end of January!!). Time for some catching up to do! 
We started the Stampin Club year off with some great new cards using some of the fabulous new products from the occasions catalogue. 

We made out own velum embossed envelope to match the card!!  The confetti card was rolling around in my brain for awhile. I love how it turned out!
Our little girl turned 5 this month!! I'm still loving the butterflies with gold accents!
And last my Dad had a birthday this month too! Inspiration from my stampin club card this month. 
Happy Stampin'!!!! More to come in February!!
