DSP Gift bag..


Hi Ladies

Seem things never slow down enough lately for me to regularly update my blog :( I needed a quick gift bag to take over to my girlfriends house last night. It was her birthday recently and I had a stamp set she had been wanting so I gave it to her. All the quick little totes and bags I kept seeing online weren't big enough to put it in. So I remembered learning how to do this bag from my adopted upline. I hope you like it :)

It is made with 2 sheets of DSP so the dimensions of the bag are pretty big. I was able to put in the stamp set, tissue paper and card with plenty of room to spare. When I took it over to her house she loved it and I think was surprised when I told her I made it out of DSP. She then wanted the DSP paper but it is retired :( I still have some in my stash that I am going to give her ..wink wink.

Thanks for looking!

Pictures as promised!!

Here are two of the make and takes that I did at convention.  The first one is one of those white paper totes that SIMG_2571U sells covered in DSP.  It is the new in color Tangerine Tango :)  The ribbon is the NEW so saffron twill, it is soooo soft and pretty.   I am loving this stamp set Inspired  by Nature.  It is a double mounted stamp so its like having 2 background stamps on one block!  When I first got the set I wasn't to sure about it, but since I have used it a few times I can say its going to be a favorite!! 

The next picture is of a quick 8 x 8 scrapbook page.  Uses the new flower fusion felt flower in bajIMG_2572a breeze.  LOVE THEM!!  Thanks for looking!!

Treat Swap....

This is a new set that I received at Convention called..  Flight of the Butterfly.  It will be IMG_2555in the new catalog and you can order it after August 11th.  :)   I love this little treat box.  It just takes one sheet of 8 1/2 x 11" paper.  I used the Bali Breeze card stock with the Bali Breeze ink pad to make my own patterned paper.  Then I used Pacific Point with Kiwi Kiss to stamp the image and mat it. I also used the CAD to punch the holes for the white taffeta ribbon.  I love this color combination :)   If you have any questions just email me :)

Coaster share... :)

I hosted a coaster share (bulk buy) with ladies on SCS, friends, and SU demos.  They have finally arrived and I divided them all up into shipping boxes.  This is what my guest room looks like now.  Good thing my company just left!  This is over 8,000!!! coasters.  About 25 ladies participated in the share.  I can't wait to create some IMG_2560projects to share online with all of you!

Stampin Spot "nugget" box...


Hi ladies,

Yeah it's almost the weekend!! That's a good thing and a bad thing as I am still preparing things for an open house I am having this weekend. Today I was working on things for display and little gifts to give out. I was making the nugget boxes to give one to everyone that comes and then it was as if a light bulb went off inside my head. (no comments from the peanut gallery :) I decided to change the dimensions a bit so that I could fit 2 Stampin Spots inside as a cute giveaway prize. Note the stamp, it's from one of the new hostess stamps from the new catalog. I love it!

You could also fit 1 incentive stamp and 1 stampin spot or change the dimensions just a little more and put 3 incentive stamps in it. It was fun to see all the things I could fit into it. I also decided to do a clear cover so that you could see whats inside. Tomorrow I am going to be making the ones with candy...yum yum. If you want the dimensions for these let me know.

Thanks for looking!

Paperclip madness...lol

Hi everyone,

Hope everyone had a wonderful Saturday. Hubby and I just stayed at home today. I had to finish getting the supplies ready for an upcoming class and hubby needed to do things around the house. I love the Very Punny set from sell-a-bration not to mention it was free :) It is just a cute set all around for little things. I made some book
markers out of the jumbo paperclips. Someone actually placed an order for me to make some but wanted them for file markers. Here are pictures of both sets.


















Recipe: Various colors from Stampin Up, Very Punny stamp set, scallop punch, circle punch

Journal makeover....

Hello everyone :) I was browsing the aisles of Michael's the other day when I came across this journal and thought to myself "I could do something with this". So here is what I came up with. I wanted you to see what type of journal I started with and of course the end result. I know just the right person to send this to.

Can't say who because then she would know! However there is a hint in the pictures...lol A rather big hint if you ask me :)
This is the inside of the journal and I didn't think want to leave it blue so I covered it as well. The spiral punch from Stampin Up! works great for this journal.



I hope she will really like it. I LOVE the saying on the front. lol :) Thanks for looking!!


















Journal recipe:
Sassy Suzie (retired) SU! chocolate chip satin ribbon, pink grosgrain, berry bliss dsp, whisper white and chocolate chip cardstock. Most SU! products.

Happy Stamping!!

Embrace Life...


I love this paper from Stampin Up! called Ginger Blossoms. It coordinates with the stamp set Embrace Life. Unfortunately the DSP (designer series paper) Ginger Blossoms, the double stitched ribbon Groovy Guava and the cardstock colors that match it will be retiring August 10! So if you are loving these colors and papers as much as I am then you better stock up!

I made this cute little notebook for a secret sister of mine :) I just covered an existing notebook with paper and stamped some images. I used the scallop punch from Stampin Up! to give it a little wow!

Card Recipe: Ginger Blossoms DSP, Groovy Guava ribbon, word window punch, scallop punch, river rock & groovy guava cardstock, crop-a-dile.

Lil' notebook holder with pen :)

I made this for a new friend that I met today. I didn't want to post it earlier in case she might see it. I saw something similar to this on Dawn's website and changed the measurements to fit what I wanted it for. It is a little notebook with pen holder. I just love these for little gifts or favors. Hope you like it!




Card Recipe: Bashful Blue, Really Red, Whisper White and Summer Picnic Designer Series Paper all from Stampin Up. I used some Stampin Up punches as well.
