In my quest to be more consistent, it's a struggle!  Yes, I've been more consistent with posting to my FaceBook page but not so consistent on updating my blog.  I'm working on that. Today I'm sharing a project that was made at this month's classes (Stampin' Escape and Stamp Club).  We used that stamp set 'Birthday Wit'.  It was one of the first stamps in the Occasions Catalog that I felt I simply must have.  It makes for quick and simple cards and many that would be perfect for that fella in your life. Birthday's are something that we always need cards for.  I hope you will find time this week to make a birthday card.  If you do, why don't you share a photo of it with me?  I'd love to share. I do need to mention that I cased this idea from a fellow demonstrator, Kelly Kent .  Thanks, Kelly! Thanks for stopping by, Happy stamping!

This month in my classes and stamp club, we made more great projects focusing on the up-coming Christmas holiday!  It's always a challenge to focus only on a stamp set or two so as to not overwhelm. This adorable card was one that I received as a swap at OnStage 2017 in Salt Lake earlier this month. It uses the wonderful designer series paper called Christmas Around the World from the Holiday Catalog and the stamp set Cookie Cutter Christmas from the Annual Catalog.  The original was made by my friend Diana Tillery (aka the Celtic Stamper ).  She had used a toothpick for the banner holder and a Real Red bow-tie instead of the Red Glimmer Paper bow-tie, but the remainder of the card unchanged.  We made this card at my November classes only.   Thanks, Diana!  This beautiful card was inspired by a Pinterest post that one of my club members posted onto our Pinterest Club page.  You can find the inspiration (made by Michelle Long) here . ...

Have you ever planned the most awesome project?   Collected everything you'd need to complete it, and then for whatever list of reasons you don't seem to ever get to doing the project?  Well, that is exactly what happened to me.  (I'd like to say it's a rare occurence, but it happens all too often!) Here is my completed fall wreath.  I had purchased the grapevine wreath at a yard sale a couple years ago, stamped and cut out the leaves, and then just put everything away.  I meant to get to making it!  Well, I'm so pleased with the finished result. So, if you have an unfinished projects (or two or twenty) take a moment this weekend and work on it.  Such a great feeling of accomplishment! Happy stamping, Amy

Just a few days ago I was looking back over the posts that I've done since I started blogging, and this card popped up.  It made me think of how I could do the same layout, but with current products. Here is what I came up with, and I really like it even better than the original card.  It uses the Labels to Love stamp set and coordinating Everyday Label Punch .  Red and Silver Glimmer paper give an extra glow to the dots too. I'm hoping to repeat this throwback idea each week!  Putting it out there to be accountable! Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping!
