Fall weather --- we must be at a soccer game

Colombia vs Spain. ....1st quarter, no score

Yippee Skippee!

Hey friends!

A quick post to share a card I totally CASE'd (copy and share everything).....

This card was made for a family member who recently celebrated a tween birthday. I was inspired by a card made by Heather Klump (see the orignal here).

One of the things I love most about Stampin' Up! is that SU products coordinate so easily...on this card I used pool party ink on pool party cardstock to stamp the yippee skippee background and yippee flag; I stamped the Let's Celebrate greeting in summer starfruit ink on the summer starfruit cardstock.

The orange chevron patttern is actually washi tape! After I put the card together I wasn't thrilled with the silver glimmer paper for the numbers and wished I had realized sooner that champagne glimmer paper might have been a better choice.

Ingredients:

• Yippee Skippee stamp set (#131341 wood or #131344 clear)
• Make a Wish stamp set (#131928 wood or #129222 clear)

Birthday celebration

It's my birthday weekend and my husband has arranged a weekend away....check out these photos, can you guess where he has taken me?  I having a blast!

First day of convention! Riverton, convention bag, stamps, & much more!

Hi friends!

I am having so much fun at the 2013 Stampin' Up! 25th anniversary convention hanging out with my stamping pals Susan and Chris.

We took the tour of the Stampin' Up! home office in Riverton...I had my picture taken at the big rock in front of the building....plus we snapped a few other photos.

We received our convention bags...a lovely back pack celebrating the silver anniversary and the popular quatre fancy design.

But the fun wasn't over yet....prize patrol found Chris! She received Modern Medley DSP along with s few other great products. Then Shelli Gardiner, Stampin Up Owner and CEO, gave everyone the Tags 4 You stamp set.

The theme of this convention is Be the Difference and we participated in several opportunies to put this in practice after the main presentation---we participated in a Guinness World Record effort to send the most cards from one place (and broke the record!), created birthday paper craft items and boxed them to be delivered to sick childern celebrating birthdays at Children's Hospital. I made a differnce thanks to Stampin Up!

And the fun continues tomorrow!

Stamping is fun...and convention is fabulous!!!
