Happy Valentine's Day!

Hello friends!

Love is in the air! It inspired to make my sweetheart a valentine.

I had several cards on hand from previous classes...

Banner Blast

Hearts a Flutter

Modern Medley

but decided the occasion called for something a little out of the ordinary.

I've been chomping at the bit to make a card in a box and this was the perfect opportunity! I kept my color scheme to pool party, white, and real red and limited myself to a few stamp sets--Follow My Heart, Countless Sayings, and Perfect Pennants. I embellished with the small and full heart punches and the SAB banner punch. What do you think?

love the colors

A few other views...

And what's really cool is the card fits in a an envelope for a 5.5x4.25" card!

I followed 2 tutorials--Heather Summers and Heidi Weaver. I'd love to see your valentine cards or card in a box projects!

Happy New Year! Desk calendar club news

Hello friends!

I hope you enjoyed the holidays and were able to spend time with friends and family--I did! I'm looking forward to 2014. I hope you and your family have a year filled with health and happiness.

Now it's time to get stamping!

The monthly hostess stamp club begins tomorrow, Friday January 3rd, 7-9pm. I'm offering the club on 3 dates each month to accommodate various schedules, choose the date that works best for you (RSVP please!). At each club meeting you'll make 2- 5.5x7" pages for a desk calendar (your choice 2014 or 2015) plus a card or other fun project. This month club members can make their calendar pages on Friday January 3 (7-9pm), Saturday January 4 (10am-12pm), or Thursday January 8 (7-9pm). This club meets for 6 months and club members receive hostess benefits  -at least $25 in free products- once during the 6 months. Want to join the fun? Registration is $10 (to cover the cost of the calendar frame) and each member will place a minimum $25 order at each club meeting. I'll be assigning a Hostess code each month so members can place online orders through my website if they wish. The Hostess code for January is GERR6W6N.There is a long-distance option for the club calendar project. Place an order each month (via the hostess code or directly with me) and I'll mail you all the cardstock and embellishments for each calendar page; you supply your own ink, stamps, adhesives, and embossing folders/die cuts. There are a couple of spots available in this club, so don't wait. Contact me to sign up today!

Who doesn't like a little sparkle?

Hi friends!

I finally found a minute to post a video I made showcasing one of the cards from my Valentine card class a few weeks ago. This lovely card features several new products found in Stampin Up's 2013 Spring catalog and other itens from the annual catalog---the new items are the Hearts a Flutter framelits and the honeycomb embossing folder. Drop me a line if you would like a copy of either catalog.

This project was inspired by a card made by Elizabeth Hurst. My version looks like this...

Really Sweet Owl card

Hey Friends!

I have a new video to share with you of a super sweet and easy owl valentine card. It features Stampin Up's (SU) owl builder punch and a few other cool SU products. Although I designed this card with valentine's day  in mind,  I think it could easily be changed to an anniversary card by changing the sentiment banner on the heart.

And a photo of the finished card...

What occasions would you use use this card for? I'd love to see your card---please share!

Stamping is fun!
