Monday Motivation Part 2 

It took a bit of doing but I finally got  the video to work...  going live on facebook is quite the challenge for me lately! 

Here are the card ideas from page 22 , the next 4 

I will be making a set of cards with measurements on them ,using my retired card stock and dsp. If you would like one I will be charging 10.00 plus shipping and handling.. unless you are local. Just let me know 

I hope these are helping you!  

On Page 22 of the Annual catalog , at the bottom, there are 22 layout ideas. 

I made a  mock up of each of them. I used my retired card stock and made myself a visual.  Then I made a card using that mock up. 

Here are 6 of the layout ideas I made

And here is the video I made. I will be making more videos of the rest of the layouts

I hope you enjoyed this video! More to come!

 

Elegant Tag Topper Punch

I saw what Connie Stewart did and had to try this! Here is another way to use your Elegant tag Topper Punch! I love using punches, don't you? They add so much to your cards, and this card was so easy to do! I haven't made a video in quite some time, and some of the new technology has me stumped.. but I am getting there!

Here is the card I made

It is very much like Connie's card, I love yellow and black together,,, I just used a different stamp set!

 Good snowy morning from Michigan! The small amount of snow that we got looks pretty, and I am happy to see it, for a day!  Now we can jump ahead to warm sping days! 

I have been busy in my "Ink Pad" making messes, only to clean them up and "re-mess"  it up again! 

I have been having good time playing with the new  Bee My Valentine Bundle from the Jan to April Mini catalog!

 Here are a few cards I have made ! I also am in love with Fluffiest Friends found in the Online exclusives ! I hope these cards pictured below give you a little inspiration! If you have any question you can email me here.  Check out more ideas and products at my store. If you do not have a Stampin Up! demo already I would love to help you out! 

Stay Tunned !

 Merry Christmas Everyone! And  a very Happy New Year! I have not been very attentive to my blog and I sure hope to improve! My husband will FIANALLY  be retiring at the end of  the year and we will be off this crazy Swing shift he has been working! Finally some continuity in sleeping patterns should make life a little less crazy... but I know that Life will continue to throw us curve balls. Hopefully we will cope with them as they are thrown! 

Hope your New Year will be filled with love and joy! 

Look for me to blog again soon. Love to all 

I'm back again!

 Wow! Can't believe I have neglected my blog for such a long time! 

Time moves so fast, I really can't say what I have been doing that has taken up all of my time, I just know it feels like I have been busy every minute! 

So heres what is new... Stampin Up! is have a GREAT  sale on their Designer Series Paper .. 15% off selected packs. Check it out  here. 

Here is a quick video of how to use a 6 x 6 sheet of dsp to make a cute card,

If you have any questions just give me a text or email 

Thats it for now, have a great start to summer! 

This is one of my favorite folds! Its called a book binding fold! 

You start with a piece of cardstock 4 1/4 x 11 and score it at 4 1/4 and again at 5 1/2 . I could not find the right piece of dsp for the background on my pale papaya card stock, so I took one of my Texture chic  Memories and More Cards and envelopes ( page 136 in the anual catalog ) and cut it to 4 x 4 and 1 x 4 .

The stamp set is from the July-Dec catalog, I combined 2 sets, Hello Harvest on page 50 and Kindest Gnomes on page 43. The ribbon is Early Expresso Faux Suede trim on page 145, and the open leaf trinket can be found on page 83 of the July - Dec catalog. I colored the cute little gnome with my blends, and had a good time doing so! 

Leave a comment below and let me know if you like my card! Thats all for now, TaTa for now,
