Happy Septmeber! 
I am not sure about you, but my Summer FLEW by! I am still alive and well.. just overwhelmed by how fast September got here!! Before you know it will be Apple Season and Halloween! 
Speaking of Apple season .. Stampin Up! has the most darling Harvest Hellos stamp set with matching apple punch.. it can be an apple or a pumpkin!  Here it is 
I have had a LOT of fun playing with it and I haven't even tried many pumpkins with it yet!! 
Here are a few items I have made.







I just love the pizza boxes! They are a great size for all kinds of treats..I don't always fill them with candy.. The dollar store and Target often have little goodies like erasers and small games that will fit inside. It is my plan to do a video soon on how to make these cute little boxes... Thank you to fellow demo Cindy Schuster.. for her creation of these cute little boxes.. these are my version of her creations! All of the above cards and treat boxes were created using the apple punch! 
If you are local and would like to make some of these and other creations join me for my Harvest Hellos  Product class.. Sunday October 6th at 2pm, or Monday October 7 1030 am and 6 ish and Tues Oct 8th same times. 
the cost of the class is 45.00 and you will go home with the stamp set, the punch and 8 cards ..2 each of 4 designs.. plus colored instruction sheets. 
If you want the stamp set only the price is 35.00  Money is due NO LATER than Monday Sept 30th noon.
 As always if I can be of any assistance for your stamping needs do not hesitate to contact me!

Happy Stampin!

Happy 4th of July
Every July I design a Red White and Blue card.  This year Beauty Abounds was the stamp set I chose. I used a dauber to get both the red and blue ink on the "Swirly "
However you celebrate the holiday I hope you all remain safe and happy and surrounded by those you love! 
Stay safe this Holiday weekend and enjoy the summer!

When I first got my Mosaic Mood DSP I just loved the colors and feel to it. Some of the images are clear embossed and they just shine! And then I went to cut it... What was I going to do with it?? I think I sat and stared for the longest time... imagine, being intimidated by a piece of paper!!  That is when I went to my catalog and thought, well, what did Stampin'Up! do with it?? Okay.. pg 118 of the current catalog has some great pictures and ideas... I got as far as the top left picture shown here... from there I had fun just cutting the humming birds out of the dsp and using different embossing folders.  Each card took on its own personality and it seemed like ALL my embossing folders worked well well with the dsp, as well as many different color combos! I just looked at the back of my DSP package and pulled one of every color listed and went form there! Some I put greetings on and some I left blank.. Not every card needs a greeting , right?? Sometimes you just want write a quick note .. or sometimes you need to add a greeting later for your needs.. I think any of these would be good for almost any occasion, even sympathy! I also used some flower faceted gems on them, little flowers for the birds to enjoy! Moral of this story?? When in doubt or in a slump?  .. go to your catalog and get some inspiration there!

If you are in the USA and currently do not have a Stampin Up demo, I would love to help you out. If you need a catalog just let me know and I will get one to you ASAP! 

If you need any supplies, please check out my store here  here
and use  SAZFAVHY  when asked about a host code. Remember EVERY online order gets a free little gift from me as well as one of my hand stamped cards! 

Thats it for today.. It looks like summer may have come to Michigan, time to go out and soak out some Vitamin D... Til Next time, Happy Stampin!

Thank you to my friend Jan! 
Jan came over on Friday to make Dads N Grads cards. These were not what we started out to do! The light houses were happy accidents !



The back side said Happy Fathers Day.  We were going to use them for Fathers day... but when we saw how perfectly the lighthouses were cut out, we quickly changed our mind! A Happy Accident! They are from the  Come sail away memories and more card pack . Item # 149552 and cost 11.00 ! These cards are great for card making... most of the work is done for you! If you are memory keeper/scrapbook-er there are all kinds of cards to make your memory keeping so much easier! I love lined cards, I can just write a brief note about my picture or use the larger lined cards when I have a lot to say!
 The background paper is # 149481 11.50 come sail away designer series paper  and co ordinates so well with the stamp set, and the memories and more card pack.  Stay tuned for more from this suite!
