Last night I was finished up the final design touches and prepping for my first Christmas Card stamp-a-stack this weekend. I need to get the cards photographed so I can share some of the fun things we will be doing but I really wanted to get at least one up today so I hope you…

Recently, I’ve been on a kick where I really want to use up my scraps when I get done with a project. I have sooo many scraps and stamped or punched out pieces that I decided not to use for one reason or another, that I just want to get them used up so that…
I’m getting ready for my Crystal Effects technique class tomorrow and I always love running this class because it reminds me to use one of my favorite techniques – the “Stained Glass” technique. This technique uses Crystal Effects, reinker, and some glitter to let you color in any image on a Window Sheet giving you…
Alright, I’m finally getting caught up which is nice! Up next, getting ready to have a bunch of great ladies over on Wednesday night to check out all of my samples, swaps, and goodies that I brought back from Convention and then make a few projects to take home! It should be a fun night…
So, after making a couple cards recently using the Frightful Sight designer paper , I decided to challenge myself to make a card that had absolutely nothing to do with Halloween using this paper pack. So, how about a holiday card? The black paper with green dots is the backside of the crazy pattern that…
Today is our day to head home from Las Vegas. Its been a great trip, but I’m ready to head home. But before I fly out, I thought I would share one more card I made with some of my new goodies I brought with me on the trip. I decided last night that I…
Yes, I know it isn’t Christmastime and I can’t even claim Christmas in July, but I recently ran across this holiday card I made last winter and I JUST HAD to share it with you! See, I first heard about glass glitter at the Stampin’ Up! convention last summer. They talked about how it would…
Today I thought I’d share the final card from my Holiday Stamp-a-Stack last weekend. I wanted to get away from the traditional reds and greens and ended up playing with some blues instead. I don’t know why I always forget about using white craft ink on cardstock, but thanks to a sample I saw on…
As promised, I have the last two cards we created at our Holiday Stamp-a-Stack (you can see the details on the first two in my post from yesterday). Seasons Greetings Like I said yesterday, these cards were meant to be fairly easy to make though I guess the hand cutting on this card is a…
So, I finally decided to start doing challenges on Split Coast Stampers and so I just did my first one, which was for SU demonstrators to come up with quicky holiday cards. I still think I could have gone a bit more simple but at least the technique is very easy. I think all told,…
This weekend I went to Bellingham, WA to visit my mom and attend her Christmas card stamp-a-stack. We made 3 cards each of four different designs using some of the new holiday stamps from Stampin’ Up! It ended up being a mother/daughter event with two other mother/daughter pairs plus a couple more ladies joining us. It was…
