Here are a few examples of the cards made at the last stamp camp. 

 

We used Juliette patterned cardstock.  Layered it onto brown and then added out sentiment.  I absolutely LOVE this set.  It is our level D hostess set.  So, with a $750.00 order it could be yours too!

Call me if you are interested in booking a show!!  Plus, this month is double benefits!!  Wahoo!  How AWESOME is that???

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Stamping!!!

The NEW catty is here!!!!

I'm SO excited the new catty is here!!!

 

AND........  I was published in it!!!  I DID do a couple of samples for the hostess set but then there were a couple of surprises in there.  I had sent in forever ago!! 

This is the sample that I made using stuff that TAC sent me!!

 

   

This is one of the surprises!!

 

 

This is my last sample.  How exciting it was to see my cute little Rylea.  This was Halloween 2008.

 

You can go and check out my cards that didn't make it here!!

Bringing joy to a family!!

I had the pleasure of helping with our church's project, building a house for Habitat for Humanity!!  What an AWESOME gift to give a family and what a blessing to be part of!!

I didn't realize how much FUN I would have there today!!  I got to run power tools and hang sheet rock (I'm hoping Ben doesn't find out)!!  Heheheh!!  It was just great.  This morning several women from out church took the first shift!!  There was a couple of really nice fellows to guide us but we got a TON of work done!!

 I can't wait to scrap these pages!!  Check out my photos!! 

Oh, what a day!!

What an AWESOME day it is!!  I LOVE the fact it is not to cold but not hot!! hmmmmm!!  I like it!

I thought I would share with you a card that I made.  It is REALLY a whatever you want it to be card.  Does that make sense???  Ok, I will show you and then you will get it!!  :)

 

The REALLY cool part of this card is I used acetate for the front of it.  So, you can see right thru to the inside white piece.  The black strip is on the back side of the acetate being held on by a small piece of tape and the ribbon round.  Then the white piece white the sentiment is on the front covering up the tape!!  Whala!! 

Here is a side view.

  

Hope you have a GREAT weekend!!

Wooden Letters

Oh, how I LOVE to cover wooden letters with our AWESOME cardstock!!  I used Rustic Chic here to cover my wooden "LOVE".

 

I added a bit of ribbon, some flowers, buttons, and of course, scrappers floss. 

While I was at my Grand Island convention in March, my table mate and friend Shawna bought a pack of Willoughby.  She covered the letters in her last name and THEN, added the letters to a frame!!  YEP, she add the letters right to the glass.  What an AWSOME look!!!  She was very nice and let me shoot a photo of it!!

 

       

Shawna also did the word "Dream".  She just our AWESOME cardstock, Mimi.  She added a few embellishments and whala!!  A FANTASTIC gift idea!!

  

Kudos to me!!

Better late than never, right???

I had the honor of doing samples for the NEW serendipity.  So, I thought I would share with you the samples that I made!!

 

 

 

 

I hope you enjoy our NEW Serendipity.  If you need your very own copy let me know!!
