Summer Fun

For my nephew's birthday I made a summer themed card. In the background I used Versa Mark for the bubbles and found the cute ribbon at Michael's. The circles and wave looking paper I cut from my Cricut. It's hard to see in the picture but the red spots on the inner tube were colored in with a red glitter pen :) If you click on the picture it should super size to see more of the details.

The Perfect Fit

I got this really cute idea from Skip To My Lou. Free shoe template! These are my experiments so far. I am thinking doing a different one for Halloween time, but they make great birthday goodie 2 "shoes"! http://www.skiptomylou.org/2008/10/28/paper-witch-shoes/

Clean & Stamp at the same time I think so!


My final stamp night for the season with our Stampin Up Demo. She saved the best for last we made these beautiful cards with bleach. That's right who knew you could clean and stamp at the same time LOL! You just add bleach to a paper towel and walla that is your stamp pad. After you stamp don't forget to rinse your stamps so the bleach doesn't ruin them. It actually helps clean them to. I love this card! Soooo pretty.....



Creamsicle Days Of Summer










It took a while to put these together even though I started way before the Staff Appreciation Day. Why so long? Well I ran out of tape and ribbon and of course they had to have ribbon it's like icing on a cake LOL. Here they are all 100 of them, they look so cool I should store them in the freezer YUM! (Again these are not my own creation but from some fabulous people on splitcoast stampers I just borrowed the idea.)

Whooo doesn't love owls?

This was our Stampin Up challenge piece. We received Stampin Up designer paper and coordinating flower stickers. I found these cute 3-D owl stickers at Michael's and they added the perfect touch.














Thanks A Latte!

Like my ladybugs here are 99 tins! It's so fun to see all the colors. My favorite part was seeing everyone smile when they received them.




I appreciate you!

This year for Teacher/Staff Appreciation we wanted to do something a little different. Instead of handing out apple items, we went with gift cards to Starbucks. Yummm! The tins are from Michael's (after Christmas sale) then I used the scallop punch and Thank you stamp from Stampin Up. For that extra touch I used crystal effects in the "o" and inside it says "Thanks a latte" in the shape of a coffee cup. I used chalk to match the tin they were in. They were a big hit and fun to make.

Just buzzin by....

I love going to stamp night! You get to relax and stamp till your hearts content. I love my family but it's nice to have some "me" time and not have any care in the world except for what colors and stamp set to use LOL :)

We made these cute wipe off boards my demos idea of course :) She is so wonderful and clever to come up with items that can be stamped besides just cards. Here we did 4 layers of card stock. 2 yellow, 2 white, stamped the cute bees and slid them into a acrylic photo frame. Punched a hole in the bottom, ran beautiful ribbon through it and sticky taped the expo marker. Wala instant wipe off board. She also added a magnet on the back for it to hang on the fridge. I actually use mine at work for important notes, also this could be good for Earth Day as your not using paper. Just wipe and you're done!
