Thinking of you card …Swap Share

Author: August 15, 2011 0 Comments

Happy Monday! 

I know for some kids today is the first day back to school.  For my son not until Wednesday.  Boy is this going to be a challenge getting him back into the swing of things.  Maybe not just for him either! LOL! I have to admit it was nice not having to get up so early. ; )

Well I wanted to share really quick with you all one of my Card swaps I made for Convention. 

I got the idea right from the cover of the Summer Mini Catalog! 

Using the stamp set “On the Grow” #123077 (c) or #123075 (w) which you can find on page 14.

Will share another one a little later. Need to do some reading with my son.

Enjoy and thanks for stopping by!

Happy Stampin’,

Convention Shares

Author: August 10, 2011 0 Comments

Convention BagHello Stampers!

Well catching you up on things since Convention and I just had to share a few things with you all!  First off Convention was AWESOME!  For those who came to my Open House you saw MOST of the things I got or Won. My Down Line however got to see it ALL! LOL!  I can share some of that here.  Here is our Convention Bag for this year! LOVE it!

I was chosen to be a Make n Take Helper this year! Woo Hoo!

Con AmorAlso this year at Convention they had “Hispanic Night” on Friday which was an AWESOME Event…we got to do a few Make n Takes which we got the Stamp set for. TOTALLY did not know that was going to happen. 

Then we had a Card Contest.  We had to come up with a card in 7 minutes. We had to put our stamp set together and only our Team Captain could get our supplies for us. 

Now can you imagine that?

 

DSC04887Well, our table won! 

What did we win you ask??  More Stamps Sets (3), glitter, DSP and Ribbon! I know OMG right???  I’m sharing the photo of our group and the card we all came up with too!  Woo Hoo! So exciting!

Oh and the last day of Convention’s “Prize Patrol” – I won yet again!

DSC04957Oh, and I also got another Stamp Set for Recruiting and a pin!  Let’s say I made out like a bandit this year!

Thank goodness I drove. I would have had to buy another suitcase just for all stamp sets I got! LOL! 

All I have to say is that I love Stampin’ Up! they are a super generous company and I am so proud to be a part of it!

Thanks for stopping by and as always Happy Stampin’,

So let’s say I’m am playing catch up, but slowly but surely I am getting back into the swing of things.  To say I’ve been overwhelmed is putting it mildly! ; )

Anyway, on to my Wedding Favors!   I hope you enjoy!  Questions please don’t hesitate to ask!  If you want more details don’t hesitate to ask me!

I made these Super Cute Favors for the Wedding party! Super easy to make.

I love the Bride one…I LOVE all the details on both of them! 

These were made with Stampin’ Up!s Milk Carton Die! How fun is this?

They look so elegant!

 

 

 

Next I made about 80 of these!  LOVED how they came out. 

Don’t you just LOVE the Tie? Love all the Bling too!

I sure hope the guests liked them too! 

 These were also super fun and easy to make using the Two Tags Die also from Stampin’ Up!

 

Ok, I’ve got to get ready to take my son to a birthday party today!  I’ll also be sharing the Wedding Invites I made, Convention Swaps, and much more! Questions email me: yvonne@yvonnesstampingplace.com or call/txt me 760-597-0020
