Christmas Card class

Hello everyone, sorry for the long delay in posts. My life has drastically changed and I am coping with those changes. For those of you who don't know, my husband of almost 34 years passed away in June. and miss him sooooo terribly much!
Stampin Up has always been a joy to me, and before he died he (my best friend, my Frog Prince,) , made me promise to not give up my stamping. Stamping has truely been a great form of stress relief for me.
These are the cards we will be making in Saturdays Stamp a stack. You will make 4 each of these 3 designs, for only 18.00. Let me know asap if you would like to join us. b4frog@wayn.org is my email. Hope to hear from you soon, and I hope to be back blogging on a more regular basis. A big Thank you goes out to my side line Angie and my Upline Susan for their contribution to our card class.. we each designed one of the cards!
Til next time, happy stamping!

We did this at a recent workshop! I would like to thank Jen-Jen and Jen and Chris for all their help.. at the workshop that almost wasn't! I was called away on an emergency, and these great gals, all new to stamping took over! I showed them how to do the projects and then took off! So you see, even 'newbies" can stamp!
I left the image plain.. so the guests could color it themselves or leave it blank for the child in their life to color! I used green galore and appricot appeal cardstock, and whisper white of course. I used versamark for the background bears.... easy-peasy-lemon squeezie! Thanks again to my wonderful hostesses and helpers!

I wish my scanner was better, but the yellow you see here is really gable green chalk. I use glossy white card stock and ran it thru the emobossing folder, elegant bouquet. I used Pixie Pink textured card stock to layer my embossed piece on. I couldn't figure out how to get the chalk to stick to the glossy cardstock, so I used my versamark ink on a dauber and then used another dauber for each color of chalk. You will have to just believe me that it is much prettier in real life!

try this

If you click on the "try this" I'm hoping it will take you to a video all about using Stampin Up!'s new punches, and how to make the cornor punch work. Lets see if my computer skills have any skills at all!
Good Luck!

Bird thank yous

I just love how simple and easy it is to create nice little thank yous for my custamers using the two step bird punch! I hope my custamers like them too!
