Little Monster Patties

Author: October 21, 2011 0 Comments

Hi Stampers & TGIF!!!  This week flew by!  Spent most of the week getting "caught up", re-organizing, stamping here and there.  I wanted to share a picture of the little Halloween party favors I worked on Saturday Night.  I am making these for my Son to take to his class mates!

Little Monster Patties
Lot's of Little Monsters! Are these not the cutest??

I got this idea from a Swap at Convention! (Traci DeGolier) LOVE THEM! Of course there is a Peppermint Candy sandwiched between the Scalloped Head.

My son did to and wanted me to make them for his classmates.  So yes lot's of work BUT what's a Mom to do? Make them of course! LOL!

Little Monster Patties 1Here is a close up!  I just love the one-eyed Monsters don't you?

I used Stampin' Up! Punches for them. Scallop Circle Punch, 1/2 & 3/4 " circle punches and the Word Window Punch. I will show you the finished packaging when I am done with them.

Convention 2011 Highlights

Author: September 3, 2011 0 Comments

Hi Stampers, 

With School in it’s almost 3rd full week all is getting a little calmer here. Sorta! : ) 

I did go on another trip to Henderson, Nevada for Stampin’ Up! Regionals! Oh WOW that was fun. I also had 2 of my Downline there. Theresa and Bonne! WOO HOO! Bonnie won a FREE stamp set!  Best thing – it was one she didn’t already have! LOL! 

That was last weekend – so prior I was working on swaps, getting my son back into the grove of school, trying to organize things here in my house and my Stamp Room (never ending).  But I wanted to share with you a Video I saw at Regionals. It is the Convention Highlights of 2011 I made it! LOL! You can see me at about 1:21 seconds.  Now I do have to warn you this years song is very catchy!  Enjoy!  Will be back to share some Recruit news that we got from Regionals! I know I'm lagging! Sorry!

Happy Stampin’,

Te Adoro card share

Author: April 4, 2011 0 Comments

Happy Monday!  Hope your weekend was good! Here is my 2nd card swap for the Spanish Swap I was in!  I love how this card turned out! 

The funny thing is that I had the butterfly cut out and had the wording on the circle piece just laying on my table not knowing what I wanted to do with it.  Then I placed a few other Neutral colors down and it just went together all by accident.  I hope you like it!  Thanks for stopping by I truly appreciate it!

Build a Blossom Birthday Card

Author: February 17, 2011 0 Comments

Build a Blossom BirthdayEvening Stampers,

I wanted to share this card I made for my Mom's Birthday. I am really LOVING the new Build a Blossom Set from Stampin' Up! and of course with the coordinating punch set.

This is a 2 step stamp set. What did I do? How did I do it? What did I use?

 

Stamp set:  Build a Blossom, Teeny Tiny wishes
Ink: Regal Rose, Blushing Bride, Choclate Chip, Pear Pizzazz
Cardstock: Whisper White, Blushing Bride, Chocolate Chip, Pear Pizzazz
Accessories: Build a Blossom Punch, Modern Label & Word window punch, Eyelet border punch, 1 1/4 cirle punch, Dazzling Diamond Glitter

1.  Using Blushing Bride ink stamp the solid image on Whisper White cardstock, then with Regal Rose Stamp the Out Line image on top of that.  Stamp your out line leaf image on Pear Pizzazz cardstock with Pear Pizzazz ink – Punch out all your images.

2.  I attached Chocolate Chip cardstock to the base of the card which is Blushing Bride and used the eyelet border punch on the bottom half.  

3.  With the Teeny Tiny wishes stamp set stamp your sentiment with chocolate ink and punch out using the Word Window Punch.

4.  Using Pear Pizzazz Cardstock punch out your shape with the Modern label punch and attach the sentiment to it. Punch out a 1 1/4 inch circle in Regal Rose or Blushing Bride. It doesn't matter what color you won't see it.

5.  Layer your Petals on the 1 1/4 inch Circle punch, attach the center with dimensionals – attach your flower with dimensionals to your card.

That is it! Hope you liked this card. I've got some more shares coming. Thanks for stopping by and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Happy Stampin',
