September Class Projects

I think I say this all the time, but life gets kinda crazy!  Although I've been in my craft room often, mostly to try to put something together for a class, I haven't been very good at showing all of you what those creative projects are!  

Here are the projects made at the September Stampin' Escape Class.  I focus on one stamp set and 3 projects are made from it so that you have at least 3 different ideas.

This gift card holder uses the wonderful Mini Treat Bag Thinlits.  You could just as easily add a couple Ghirardelli chocolates on the pull-out and make it a treat bag.

I love the simplicity of silver and white for winter and Christmas cards.  A little silver embossing powder and a few Rhinestones Basic Jewels give just the right "pop".

Finally, I just fell in love with this card when I first saw it.  It's CASED from fellow demonstrator, Michelle Pollard.  The TIEF was inked up before the card stock was placed into it to give the colored background.  Black birds and peeking eyes were stamped onto it next.  Quick and easy!

Happy stamping!  Thanks for stopping by.

Just Saying "Thank-You"

This past week, I sent out thank you notes to my Paper Pumpkin subscribers.  It's something I do every month for those who subscribe.  Just a little perk!  I try to use the previous subscription kit to make the thank you, giving another use for the stamps that were in the kit.

Here is the thank you that I sent out this month.  It uses the stamp set from the July Paper Pumpkin kit as well as Gorgeous Grunge and the Pretty Petals paper stack.

Today is the last day to sign-up and get 50% off* your 1st 2 months of Paper Pumpkin.  It's the suprise paper crafting kit that comes right to your door each month.  (*you must be a 1st time subscriber to receive this deal)

Classic Christmas

I started working on this card over a week ago, but hit a creative block and set it aside.  It's kinda funny how that when I picked it back up today, I really didn't do that much more to finish the card.  However, I'm pleased with the results.  I think it's a classic look using only silver and white.

Can't wait to play some more with this awesome bundle from the Holiday Catalog!

Oh What Fun....

Today I pulled out one of the new kits that will be available starting September 1st in the Holiday Catalog.  It's called, Oh What Fun Tag Project Kit and it really is fun.  The kit will make 30 tags and includes everything to make them, minus the stamp set, inks and adhesives.

While you can purchase the kit (come September 1st) and make it yourself, it would be so much more fun to make together with a few friends!  Contact me today, and schedule your own "Let's Kit Together Class".

Happy Stamping!

It's a Class Week!

This week is a busy week around here.  It's both stamp club week and Stampin' Escape Class week!
In my neck of the woods, it's also the back to school week.  So, many of you are crazy busy with last minute preparations too.  I often forget about back to school time because I don't have anyone in my house who is still in school.

If you are nearby, I'd love for you to make it to my class held in my home this coming Thursday.  There are 2 times to choose from; one in the morning and one in the evening.  Message or email me for details.  I must have RSVP's by close of day Tuesday, August 18th so I can prepare.

Here is a sneak peek of what we'll be making.  All projects use the new stamp set, Garden in Bloom, from the 2015-16 Catalog.

Convention Make & Take Share

One of the many things that I enjoy while attending a Stampin' Up! event, is the chance to sit down as my customers do when they attend my events, and stamp!  All demonstrators who attended Convention were given a stamp set from the new Holiday catalog.  It's called Your Presents, and although it's a Christmas stamp set, there are so many other occasions you could use it for.  I love how we got to make a birthday card with it!

Thanks for stopping by.

Until next time...happy stamping!
