Update!

Time to update you on what's been preventing me from Stampin! We've done some updates to our kitchen. It's amazing what paint and tile can do.  That and removing upper cabinets, recessed lighting and a new ceiling!! Feels good to finally be done!
Here are a few pics to see where we started and then the finished kitchen.

Lots of work, but so worth it!

Wanted to share a little 3 x 3 Halloween card I made for the ladies in my last order

Now to get started on my Christmas cards!!

Jar of Love Bundle

I've had so much fun playing with the Jar of Love Bundle. So many options for these little jars. The first card I made for my daughters friends birthday. They went to see the movie Finding Dory, so I thought a fish card was perfect! 

The next card was for the kids teachers. (Both teachers were female so they got the same card!!)

I'm sure I'll be making more cards with this set soon. There is a cute firefly in this stamp set I can't wait to use! 

Mom's Mother's Day card and Birthday Card.

Here is my Mom's Mother's Day card and matching envelope. (It is a ticket card holder). I used the Rose Garden thinlits die. And my envelope punch board comes in handy again for a custom envelope. 

My mom's birthday card was made using the Botanical Builder framelits. The White perfect accents worked perfectly for the centers of the flowers. Lots of fun making your own flowers, could play with this die for hours! Lol!  

May's card class

Here is what we made in May's card class. 

We used the stamp set Balloon Celebration with matching punch, still available in the new catalogue. 

And the now retired, A Nice Cuppa stamp set and die. 

I had a wonderful time catching up with my Stampin Ladies. 

Time for an update! Yikes!!

My poor neglected blog...... 

Let's bring it up to date. I have some stuff to share! 

Way back at the end of February I had my Masculine Card Class, here's what we made. 

I was really happy with how they turned out! 

My niece also celebrated a birthday in February so I made her this card. 

Another one of my new favorite sets!! 

We've been updating our kitchen when we can. It takes awhile when you work and have two busy kids too! But here is where we are so far! 

Here is the before 

And right now

Looking so much better already! Removing the upper cabinets has really opened it up. A new ceiling and lighting helps too! And lots of coats of paint on those old honey oak cabinets!! 

I've got some more classes coming up and will share those cards soon. Oh and my moms Mother's Day card too! 

Happy Stampin! 

Classes in October

I'm excited to get started again after summer break! I'm offering two classes in October. 

The first one is a Stamp A Stack class.

On Monday Oct 5th 7-9pm at my house. 

We are making 8 cards (2 each of 4 designs) envelopes included! Cost is $25.

It's nice to have a stack of cards ready for the next birthday that pops up! 

We are using one new product from the holiday catalogue called Iced Rhinestones. Here is a close up of what they look like:

The second class is on Thursday Oct 8th 7-9pm at my house. We are putting together the Witches Hat from the holiday catalogue. Cost is $33.58 (this is the cost of the kit plus shipping and tax). Please sign up for this class before Sept 28 so I have time to order the kits. 

My helper and I had so much fun putting this kit together. 

And just as much fun modelling it too! 

Space is limited so please contact me today to reserve your spot!

I look forward to stamping with you again!!

Cottage Greetings thank-you

I made 3x3 thank you cards for the ladies that ordered this month. Using one of my new favorites stamp sets Cottage Greetings. 

I coloured the flowers in with my blender pen and ink pads. Love how they turned out!
