It's Time to Camp in October!
It's October already! We will do mostly autumn themed projects again this month....but because of the stamp sets that Stampin' Up! has on sale - and all that Buy Three Get One FREE paper...... I adjusted the projects list yesterday to include two Christmas projects that feature those.Camp is FRIDAY. There are two sessions. Not a lot of space left at the 7pm - but plenty at 1pm. I do need to know if you are coming by this WEDNESDAY night (as in tomorrow!) My prep … [Read more...] about It's Time to Camp in October!
It's Christmas in……August (lol)
Camp is next week - and we will be getting a head start on Christmas stamping with this fun new special from Stampin' Up! You will LOVE the die cuts that are part of this bundle.Going to get this card done - because I placed my preorder from the Holiday Mini Catalog (available to customers on Sept 1) and nearly 100% of my (rather large) order was for autumn....and Christmas is my weakness. I am anticipating trying to sneak in an additional Christmas camp this year!If you want to get … [Read more...] about It's Christmas in……August (lol)

A Little Wild Elephant video!
Here is the video I promised to go with the adorable card we made at camp last week! Take a second to watch just so you can see how super simple it is!I was using up my extra camp supplies - I had enough of everything to complete several more of the card.....except for the little pink bow.When the card was originally just 'in my head' I intended to put the elephant front ON the front and the back on the inside of the card. Ad the bows not been laying on my table from another … [Read more...] about A Little Wild Elephant video!
Back home and Back to work!
This summer has been a whirlwind! It started with college graduation, a special wedding and three trips right in a row. Spent some time in Kentucky with my daughter, sister, nieces and grandnephews. Amusement parks are so much fun - and that is just multiplied when you throw in a daring 5 year old! Then it was off to Williamsburg, VA for some more amusement parks, history and golf and the Outer Banks, NC for some beach time. Back home for the 4th and a low key 23rd … [Read more...] about Back home and Back to work!
Introducing 2017-2019 In Colors – all on one card!
This is a super easy card - taking it back to literally just stamping and adding some ribbon!The card uses the Lovely Friends stamp set. Which - is the same set I made the wreath card with and posted last week. I didn't intend to use the new In Colors on the card - it just kind of happened.When I was gathering the supplies up to make the card at camp - that is when I noticed. The Lemon Lime twist is just a highlight in the centers of the flowers. It is my favorite new … [Read more...] about Introducing 2017-2019 In Colors – all on one card!
Shades of Pink: Inside and Out!
If you liked yesterday's card - you will probably like today's as well!The dies layer so nicely with the Layering Circles and as a bonus, you can roll them both through the Big Shot together in one pass!The Enamel Dots match the Color Theory Suite perfectly. I chose to add them down the card in the shades that coordinated with the colors on the side.There is not a video today.....I recently left my day job (last week!) to focus more on SU and in generally get caught up on life. … [Read more...] about Shades of Pink: Inside and Out!
Floral Inside and Out
Today's project super easy. The Lovely Words die cuts are just adorable - and stay tuned - there are so many fun ways to use them! In designing the card at a couple of points it needed just a bit 'more'I used the watercolor pencil to add some highlight of color to the larger flowers. Blended it with the blender pen and added just a touch of Stella. The black pencil added just a tiny bit of contrast to the centers.Here is a quick video to see how you do it!The new clear … [Read more...] about Floral Inside and Out
