Medallion and Pretties Kit

This was a fun card for me.. I hope all the girls at Club enjoyed the out come. The Medallion is stamped with Craft Eggplant and embossed with clear embossing powder on whisper white cardstock. The Flowers from the pretties kit are sponged with Perfect plum and the sponging is also done in perfect plum.

Love the combo... Thought of my Friend Elizabeth when doing this 'cause eggplant is her favorite SU color!

Card from Technique club

I have seen these flowers out there and gave it a try at making and teaching them at Technique Club last night. They are a tad time consuming but I think worth the effort when they are done. I'm sure with more practice I will make better ones. They start with a 1 x 12 ' strip of designer you'll need (2) of them. Using a border punch ( I used the eyelet one) punch the whole 12" of each one. I then punched a 1 3/8 circle from card-stock and placed Sticky Strip or our Sticky Sheets work great too. Run your strips of punched designer paper ( DS paper works best cause it is thinner than card-stock) through your crimper 2-3 times to break the fibers and to make it easier to work with. You can also spritz it with water after you have crimped it to make it more pliable too. Staring on the outside of your circle covered with sticky pleat and adhere it making peats about 1/4 inch. Work your way around until they meet. Do the same with the second one in the center of the first one. (Hope you are following along) I added more sticky to the center before starting on the second one so that it would behave and stay where I wanted it. Remember YOU are the boss! I poke a hole using my mat pack and paper piercer and added the button and applied it to the card using our pop up glue dots! Try one.. Send me your pics and I'll post them here! Have fun!

Coming Soon TO YOU

This set is featured in the new Summer Mini catalog that will be coming soon to your mail box. (that is if you have requested it) I was inspired by the cover of the catalog and this is my version of it. I have used the pastels to color with on this card. All of you that are new Demo's receive these pastels in your starter kit. Keep watching for more info on what's coming in May.. BUT until then there are items that are on clearance and just one month left to get what you want and need from the Occasions Mini! Thanks for stopping by. Happy Stamping!

Random act of Kindness (RAK)

This was sent to me from my friend and fellow demonstrator Tabitha Davis. This was one of the make and takes we did at our Demo Meeting and Stamp night. I was so busy visiting that I didn't get to make this one, so she was kind enough to make me one and mail it to me. Great Card! Hope you'll use Tabby's inspiration and make you some!

Card Club

These are the three cards that card club makes three of each for this month. This is a great club where you can leave with 9 cards with matching envelopes. If you'd like more information on how to get involved in this club contact me. Right now there are two of these clubs each month.

Meet Rae Anne

I met Rae Anne while in Campaign IL. She demonstrated SO many beautiful ways to use ribbon card stock, punches to make gorgeous flowers. She was Amazing. I love going to SU events to learn. That way I can share with you. You will love SU more and more as a SU Demonstrator.. I'd love to have you on my Team.




Rae Anne shared this blog that she found the information on how to make this rose.
