It's Finally Here!

 For those that have seen the new catalog you know why I have been chomping at the bit to get my hands on some of these fabulous new toys! And if a brand new catalog wasn't enough to get me excited, SU announced a sale and a new clear set! Oh happy day!!

Plus tonight is Paper Pumpkin night! Sure to be fun ogling all the new fabulousness with friends!

 

Another Paper Pumpkin Card

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Just wanted to pop in and share another card my Paper Pumpkin Club members will be making this Friday night...

Technique Tuesday

We always have such a great time at Technique Tuesday! This time we made gift card holders with the Pop n Cuts die base. I saw a great video by fellow demonstrator Mary Ellen Stites & I knew these would really come in handy. I had a few stamps to choose from besides the grad & some gals made thank you or birthday themes. They all came out fabulous! Here are the 2 samples I made & Mary Ellen's video! ~Enjoy

 

 

 

Just to clarify this video was made by Mary Ellen Stites not by me.:)

May Paper Pumpkin Night!

We got a super Fun kit this month! It is packed with stuff to make a brag book but I will be showing my club members some cute cards they can make with the goodies from their kits. Here is one of the cards they will get to make at our Paper Pumpkin Club night!

I am especially excited about this months get together since it will be our first chance to order from the new catalog!!! Hope to see you there!

& there off...

After much prayer, blood, sweat, & tears (so to speak) I am over joyed to announce my SU Artisan contest entries are on their way to SU! Now we...wait. It was more emotional for me this time for some reason. I mean I always put my heart in to my creations but this time I was really attached to my projects & I hope SU loves them as much as I do! I can't wait to share my entries after Convention. I am counting down the days!
Now I have to get crackin with my Displayboard projects...=)

Anyway I do have a cute card to share...but I can't take much credit since it was basically a case from the SU demo magazine.

I had my downline over on Friday for a CASE night. Fun Fun! It was so nice to not have to come up with original ideas & just copy some cute cards we found in the new catalog & Stampin Success. Thanks for stopping by today!

Best Weekend!

I had such a fun weekend! Saturday night hubby took me to the Miranda Lambert concert! It was So much fun! I am a HUGE country music fan! We used to go to concerts a lot before the little ones came along & it really took me back to those days. It reminded me of how awesome it is to be married to your best friend & that after all these years (11 to be exact) we are still as much in love as we ever were. Then Sunday we had lunch at one of our favorite deli's & went to a huge antique store in San Francisco called STUFF, stopped by IKEA, hubby made Mom & me dinner, plus my oldest daughter came over & even brought me 2 gifts! She was very excited to be able to use her first pay check to get me a Mother's Day present. So proud of her. =)
Anyway enough with the mushy stuff...how about a card or 2!

I was blessed to be able to create a card for my Mom this year. I thank the Lord everyday for having mercy on her & pray that He will continue to have His hand upon her.

I had fun using up some of my SAB paper & paired with our new Smoky Slate it was even more fabulous! Love Love Love that color! This is one of the cards I made to send a little Mother's Day love to a friend. Well now it's time for the kiddos to get working on today's lessons so I gotta run. Hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend!

Finally a Little Sneak Peek!

I have been trying to finish my Artisan entries before my display board supplies arrive. So there has been alot of creating going on but not much I can share yet. But I do have a little cuteness to show you...
