Farm Fresh!

This is not stamping releated, yet... I plan on making tags for our eggs we give or sell.  But wanted to share the first eggs from our chickens.  We have 64 layers but only 4 are laying now, so watch out when they all start laying.  

 They were YUMMY!  My first farm fresh egg EVER!  I'm thrilled I can walk out my back door and get myself some eggs!
Is is one of our girls!  She's so pretty!

Button Buddies


I am in LOVE with this set!  Button Buddies found on page 71!    this is one of the card we did at Camp.  They also learned how to use the blender pens to take color off of a stamp.  Plan to attend one of my events soon.  And Thanks for being MY Friend!

Big Shot Dress

This is a Dress that was on display at Convention that was appliqued using Material cut with the big Shot and the butterfly die.  It started out as a T-Shirt! I thought it was really clever and it is some of our new SU Fabric!  I don't sew but if I did I would make one.  Give it a try!

Birthday Card

I received this in the mail from my friend Karen!  I was searching for a great B'day card to share with my card club and it appeared in the mail!  Thank You Karen for remembering my Birthday and for the great card!  I love love love using the flower  for the triple layer blossom punch (122464)  I had this Designer Paper, "Just add cake" and I was off to this design.
Hope you will get out your gear and stamp, punch and glue something today!

Group Swap sample

Our Demonstrator group that attended this years SU convention, received the stampset "Easy Events" as one of Four sets that were in our convention bag.  We each took an image and did swaps.  this is mine.  I used our wonderful water color paper and colored birds with blender pens and classic ink.  The wings were colored in with the matching markers for a more bold look.  I used my color coach to come up with the color scheme.  A must have tool in my opinion.  Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you soon at my stamping events.

More Fun Party Ideas





These pictures were taken at SU's Home Office where they have more ideas than any human can absorb.  The attention to detail is amazing!  It's just FUN.. Makes me so Happy just being there and again when I look at these pics.  That is why I had to share with you.  I hope this inspires you the next time you are getting ready for a big event or just a fun gathering that needs some CUTE stuff!

More Altered Lighting



 A couple of post ago I featured a Lamp Shade that was altered with Paper Flowers.  Here are a couple more examples of altered Lighting.  Each of these were featured at the Stampin' Up! Home office on our tour that we took while at Convention.
Notice behind the lamp shade at the flowers that are on the wall.  Yep Flowers that were just stuck on the wall.  You can take your SU card stock to your paint store and get a true SU color and then when you use SU card stock it will match!  One of my favorite things about SU is that EVERYTHING Coordinates

Again it's not your eyes.. It's my phography but I still had to share!
