8 Months until Christmas!

I usually post a Christmas card on the 25th of each month and challenge you to get start on making your Christmas cards now - so you can avoid the rush later in the year.

I do have one Christmas card here to show you, along with the other cards that we made at my stamp club classes this past weekend,  I have some extra supplies left over, so........if you missed club, or have always wanted to try stamping - now is your chance to give it a try!

I will be at Providence Square Grill TONIGHT - Monday, April 25, from 5:30 - 8.  Come grab a bite to eat - then stay and make one or more of these cards FOR FREE!  Come see how easy it is to make a beautiful hand crafted card and how much fun we have when we get together to stamp.

If you are a regular Paper Pumpkin subscriber - grab your kit and come get your projects put together!  Not sure what Paper Pumpin' is?  I'll be happy to tell you all about it- and show you projects from past kits.

CONTACT ME if you have any questions.

Veteran's Day 2015

Below is a card that I posted this summer - but I think it is also appropriate for today.  It is made using the Work of Art stamp set by Stampin' Up!  Substitute "Thank You" for "Celebrate" and you have a perfect card to give to any veteran.

Thanks for stopping by today!

October 2014 Club Card - Work of Art

This was the first card we made at my October stamp club meetings.   I really must come up with a new name for my monthly meetings because anyone is welcome and you do not need to make a monthly commitment.  Just RSVP when you are able to attend a class and pay a $7 materials fee or place a minimum $15 order.  But if you do decide to make a monthly commitment - you have the opportunity to earn lots of FREE Stampin' Up! merchandise, including exclusive hostess stamp sets.

CONTACT ME for more details.

We used the stamp set, "Work of Art" to make this Clean and Simple card.  I received this stamp set for FREE at the Stampin' Up! catalog launch last spring!  This is the first time I inked it up!  I was unsure what to do with this set, so I headed to Pinterest to get some ideas.  

Below are a few other ways to use this set:

(Less than 2 months until Christmas!)

I am known for giving my stampers homework and this month they are supposed to make a project using something that they bought from me but haven't opened up yet!  There was no complaining about this month's assignment!  They all had stamp sets or supplies that haven't been touched.  So I can hardly wait for November's meetings to see what they make.

I will be posting September's homework cards soon, so come back and check them out soon!

Thanks for stopping by!

Work of Art

This card was made by my friend, Shelly.  It was her SWAP at a recent Stampin' Up! event we attended. She used the stamp set, WORK OF ART, to make this card.  It fits perfectly with my excuse for why I haven't been posting to my blog more often the past few weeks.  I have started back at my day job - teaching preschool.  I am settling into a nice ""Back to School" routine - just in time for my monthly stamp club gatherings September 19-21.

CLICK HERE to view my calendar of events.  Space is getting very limited for my club meetings, so RSVP soon!

If you choose to place an online order please use the hostess code: AHA43EPZ
