Happy Spring!!

HI Stampers!

Hope you are all enjoying Spring!!! It is FREEZING here, but if you stay inside, looking out the window, it is beautiful!! hehe!

I had a wonderful weekend and was able to join 28 other NOVA Stampin Up! demonstrators on Sat for a great afternoon! My friend Robin Merriman and Kimberly Van Diepen put together a Shoebox Swap for area demonstrators and it was fabulous! It was so nice to meet other demonstrators and to make time to stamp!!! Thanks ladies! So...I thought I would share the card I made for the swap! It is very simple, but I like it! The colors really pop and I am a sucker for butterfly's...especially since this weather is not getting me in the Spring spirit!!! Anyways, I hope you enjoy it! I was proud of myself for coming up with a card without CASEing anybody!! It has been a while since that has happened!!! haha!

Thanks for looking! Have a great day!

Hello Again!

Well, I am back, after many many months!! I guess there is ONE thing to be glad for when you are sick.....I can FINALLY write on my blog!!! I have been VERY busy lately, we moved during the Holidays, we have had tons of family visiting, I have been sick on and off for 2 months....BUT, at the end of the day...things are going well!!!! Sorry for the lack of blogging! I am trying to get it all together!!

Stampin Up! is going great for me and I am REALLY enjoying stamping with all of my fabulous customers and friends!!!!! My stamp camps have been full for the past 3 months in a row, so be sure to RSVP quickly when the next one is announced! They are packed full of fun stamping and are a GREAT night out with fun ladies!!! Who doesn't love a Girls Craft Night!!!!

Here is a card that we made at the last Stamp Camp. It was a Valentines Day stamp camp and we made some great cards! Now, I know, I know...this is an EXTREMELY easy and simple card, but that is why I like it! It was a quick card to make, yet I really like its simplicity and I think my stampers did too!! I have a hard time with Masculine cards (don't we all!! ) and I think this card can be used for ANY occasion, for either Male or female. I LOVE this Love Letter Designer paper. Its beautiful and I love that it is so versatile!!! I apologize for the bad picture quality, my camera broke and this is taken with my camera hone!!!

I hope you all have a great week, and it is good to be back in the blogging world!! Lets hope I will see you again soon!!! Be sure to click on the Order Here icon on the to left side of this blog to take advantage of Sale*a*Bration!!! FREE PRODUCT...what a deal!!!! Contact me for more information!!!

happy stamping!

WOW!!!!!

WOW, it has been WAY TOO LONG!!!! BAD BLOGGER!!!!! What can I say, life has caught up with me and I just haven't been able to play catch up!!!! Sorry! Everything is going great, we have just been so very busy~

So, rather than bore you all with what has been going on in my life lately, I will just say that I will promise to TRY to be a regular blogger (yet again...)

My Stampin' Up! business has been going FANTASTIC!!!!! I have met such wonderful stampers and made great friends in the past few months and they have kept my stamp camps full and fun!! I have REALLY enjoyed stamping with these ladies and getting to know each of them!! So, if you are one of my new stampers, THANK YOU for coming to stamp with me, and if you are a "veteran" stamper of mine and I haven't seen you in a while, I would LOVE to stamp with you again, come and join us!! We have had a great time!

This Monday will be my third and last Holiday Card Class of the month. It is FULL, but if you missed out on your chance to start and finish ALL your Holiday cards in one class...contact me and we can schedule your class! The stampers have really seemed to enjoy walking away with all of their beautiful cards and the sense of "WOW, I can't believe I'm done with my cards in NOVEMBER!!"

I will post some of the cards we made soon, I haven't taken a picture of them yet!! (Baby steps with getting back to blogging....baby steps!)

Well, I hope you are all doing GREAT and I am glad to be back in blogger land! I have missed you! ;o) I WILL be back SOON!!!

Happy Summer!

Hi stampers! I wanted to share with you a VERY adorable card that we made at my Stamp Camp last week, and we will be making at tomorrow's Stamp camp. Unfortunately, I have NO CLUE who I CASED this card from!!! I am always searching stamping blogs and when I found this card, I fell in love! PLEASE, if this is your card that I CASED, please let me know so I can give ALL the credit to YOU!!! I liked this card so much because it is so sweet and so simple, and I have never (I think!) done a card that is all one color cardstock. I love the look! (as with all of my pictures, click on the picture to see larger!)

My stamp camp last week went great! I had many new stampers and they were so excited to stamp and they did a FABULOUS job!! My stamp camp for tomorrow is full, but if you would like to be on my email list for the next camp, please contact me! We always have a blast!!!

I wanted to also share with you a few pictures of my (not so baby) baby girl! I cannot believe she is almost 5!!! We went to the Nationals Baseball game with my dad a couple of weeks ago and she had so much fun!!

She was super excited to get her hat just like her daddy!

She even got to run the bases with her daddy! I don't know who was more excited, Elle or Jason! :o)

And I absolutely LOVE this picture of Elle and my dad!! How cute are they!!

It was such a great day!

I hope you are having a great weekend! Thanks for looking!!

Happy Summer

Hi stampers! I have FINALLY found some time to stamp...and not a moment to soon!!! Like many of you, stamping is my THERAPY, and I was in SERIOUS need of some therapy! So it was nice to get into my craft room and get some much needed stamping accomplished!!!! I feel much better now! ;o) I found this cute template for a little, itty bitty box from Dawn's Stamping Thoughts! It is so simple and is so cute to hold a little goodie! I think it would be perfect for a shower favor! And, since I am obsessed with making these little scallop punch flowers...I HAD to add one to this box! I used the Vanilla Shimmer Smooch Spritz on the flower when I was finished and LOVE the way it makes the flower pop!!! Cute huh?!?! This is one of the projects we will be making this at my next Stamp Camp!





SPEAKING OF STAMP CAMP .... I had to reschedule my previous stamp camp, so the NEW date for my Stampin' Cafe' Stamp Camp will be on Monday, July 5 from 7-9, and then I will also being having one the following week, on Monday, July 12 from 7-9!
