Ok, so since coming home from wour Vegas Vaction last Monday it's been Non-Stop, planning for parties, Open Houses and then Family Stuff.  BUT I am slowly but surely getting back into the swing of things.  I wanted to share this SUPER Easy Card.  As A Stampin' Up! Demo we get a monthly Magazine called Stampin' Success and it has TONS of samples in it and this was one of them! I LOVE how easy it was to make up and yet still looks Great!  Nowthe actual card had the matching Desinger paper at the bottom but I didn't have it so it went without! ; ) Can you imagine the color combos?? ALSO this set is on Special right.  It's part of the Never Before Seen Specials which you can see here!  $16.11 it is called Upsy Daisy! LOVE this set!

Cardstock/Ink  is Baja Breeze, Choc. Chip
Accessories: Ribbon, SU Punch

This card was cut 4 1/4 x 11 – I made 5 of thes in about 1/2 hour that's how easy they are to make up. I am making sample packets for my Downline and this is one of the cards.  I'll share the rest a little later! Ok, so off to gather my Blog Candy Goodies!  PLUS got LOTS more to talk about!  As alwys thanks for stopping by.

Happy Stampin',

DSC01389 Ok, we are having a Blast here in Vegas!! The Red Rock is Awesome….

Ok,  I LOVE my Baskets & Blooms Bigz XL Die which is an Exclusive Stampin' Up! Die. These baskets make up really quick.  You do have to get used to putting the bottom part together, but once you get the hang of it…watch out.  I really LOVE the NEW In-Colors too!! I wasn't to sure at first but really do LOVE the combos.  I'll have many more samples when I get home. As always thanks for stopping by.

Happy Friday All! My Hubby &  I are in Vegas right now staying at the Red Rock celebrating our 12 yr. Anniversary!  OMG, Super nice….

Anyway I have a quick share from one of my dear friends/customer Jackie Hartley.  She had given me a card a few weeks ago for my Wedding Anniversary which is on the 29th of August…But I saved it and opened it last night.  LOVE this Card and she did such a nice job on it.  She dry-embossed it..she is so good at this. The picture doesn't do it justice at all but I did my best.  Thank you so much for my card Jackie! I absolutely LOVE it!!! 

I have a few more shares but will post tomorrow.  I will some FREE time. Can't gamble all day long.

As always thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin',

OMG! it is already Wednesday!  I've been stampin, organizing, stampin', and well stampin! LOL! Anyway, I've been having fun with My "Big Shot"! WOW! LOVE this maching, Love the Dies…just plain LOVE it!  I honestly didn't get to do as much as I wanted BUT here are a few things that I did do… Enjoy and as always thanks for stopping by.

Ok, this was my very first project!  I knew when I saw this Die at Convention I HAD to HAVE it…This is the Baskets & Blooms Bigz XL Die which is an Exclusive Stampin' Up! Die.

I used of course my new favorite DSP "Bella Rose" wrapped nuggets and used the Scallop & Circle Punches.

Stamp set used here is the WOW Flowers which also comes in Spanish!  This is a really cute set!

I am such a Party Favor Person it's not even funny! Not that you can tell wtih all my purses, boxes..etc.  Ok, so I have a MAJOR problem! ; )  I'm not alone though I know that for sure!

 Ok, SO I was browsing through the grocery store I came across those Orange Slice Candy's that are like Gummy's. LOVE them….But why is it that my first thought is "Hey, I know what I can make with those?" I never look at candy the same anymore! ; ) Go figure huh? 

Well I started out with 1 Idea then got a "BLOCK" I couldn't get out of it for the longest time, what I had thought of to begin with just wasn't working – These are my next project(s).

Ok, I used the Top Note Bigz Die another Stampin' Up! exclusive die! Love this too. They make great Toppers for the Small Cello SU! Bags and the Medium ones, just fold it the other way for the Medium ones.  All the Die Cut Flowers are from Birds & Blooms Sizzlits Die. I also used the Set Wow Flowers and Tart & Tangy! So HAPPY that set made it in the Catalog! Woo Hoo! Card stock used here is Tango Tangerine & DSP Summer Picnic.  Ok, I'll be back a little later to post my Open House Event.  I thouht I had done that already! Yikes!!

Happy Stampin',

 Birthday Box                                                                                

I am SOO glad that Stampin" Up! carried over this Summer Picnic DSP! WOO HOO! I love it!

Here is the box that I mentioned last night! Inspiration came from the Parylite Candle box. It's the one that holds the Votives.

Shown below are more views. Working on these directions too… Not as time consuming as the other one that is for sure.

Birthday Box Side         Birthday Box Open
Here are Side view and open View. It's pretty roomy inside. I can see chocolate that's for sure! LOL!  Thanks for stopping by and Have a great weekend! Happy Stampin!

Ok, here are 2 of them together you can skip the Coluzzle part if you want to.  I don't know I think I like it better with the Cut out in front. My daughter and I liked it but liked the other one better.  Now maybe try another set, DSP or something. Ok, this last photo below is the close up on the tag I made. 

DSC01368 

 I love this Tag! It would be perfect on a card to! I love this NEW Set too Stampin' Up's  "Flight of the Butterfly" and of course the New Bella Rose DSP! Yummy!!!
