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...

closed--fits into a A2 envelope

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!

Stamping is fun!

Glitter napkin cards

Hello friends!

I recently saw a youtube tutorial for a glitter napkin technique by serenestamper. I fell in love and could not rest until I had made my own glitter napkin cards!

I started with some fall paper napkins I found at Michael's...

Then I found that I could also use glossy embossing powder and iridescent ice embossing powder...love it!

I taught a class on making 3x3" gift tags using napkins I found at the dollar store and fancy tissues I bought at Michael's. We used iridescent ice embossing powder. I find that it gives plenty of shimmer but offers a clearer view of the napkin pattern.

At Ikea I found cute paper napkins...the colors go great with Stampin Up's Rose Red and Pink Pirouette; I used them to teach my stamping friends the iridescent ice glitter napkin technique. I love this card! What do you think?

Staming is fun...and so is the Glitter Napkin technique using Stampin Up's Iridescent Ice embossing powder!

2013 Cookie Exchange

Hello friends!

I particpated in a cookies exchange at my office and wanted to share! Not the cookies but my cookie packaging!

Last year, everyone loved the Raspberry Almond Thumbprint Shortbread cookies I made and asked that I make them again; since they are easy to make I agreed! It's a Land o'Lakes recipe that my sister found many years ago--it's a family favorite now. Want the recipe? Click here.

 There were 10 particpants in the exchange; we made a half dozen cookies for each other. I packaged my cookies in Stampin Up's cello bags tied with cherry cobble 1/4" sweater trim tied in a bow. The trim mached the raspberry centers and cello bags let everyone see the pretty cookies inside!

Stamping is fun...sharing cookies is fun, too!

It snowed in December

Hello friends!

It snowed in central Maryland in December. December is not a traditional snowy month here so getting more than a dusting is pretty exciting!

Snow is fun!

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!
