Good morning!
Happy Hump day!
Wow......I do believe this is my favorite card for my upcoming Christmas card class.
And I do have to admit that it was not my favorite stamp set in the 
Holiday Catalog when I first saw it!
But these are my colors too!
I love Old Olive & Cherry Cobbler too.

Check out the new Gold Glitter in the center of the Poinsettia.
'Joyful Christmas' & 'Joy to the World'
cs:  Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White
ink:  Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive
supplies:  Big Shot, Pretty Prints Embossing Folder, Multi-Purpose Glue, Gold Glitter, Scissor Snips, dimensionals 
 
 I finally got all of my Stamp 'Til You Cramp projects figured out last night!
WOW!
They are all amazing!
Now I need to find time to start creating & cutting them all!
I am so EXCITED about this upcoming class & I can't wait to spend my day stamping with everyone that will be joining me on October 26th for this annual fall event.

My Aunt Kathy is going to come help me today with some stamping stuff.
Bless her! 

I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

'Christmas Collectibles' card

Good morning!
Here is one of my Christmas cards.
It is created with the Holiday Catalog set- 'Christmas Collectibles'.
I love that the ornament punch coordinates with it!
( I will update this post with a supply list sometime soon.)

I had a wonderful time stamping with Jan & her friends last night.
I'm so glad that she welcomed all of us to their home.
I enjoy getting to see her family too!

Today I'm cutting & getting ready for my big workshop tomorrow with 
Jan C & Jan E being hostesses.
They have a big group of friends joining us!
I can't wait to spend my afternoon stamping with all of them.
I can't wait for them to see all of the cards that they'll be making.

Nathan raced in Donnellson last night & got 5th in one heat & 3rd in the other heat.
We race down there again tonight- so I'll be off to the races with my family!

'Santa's List'

Good morning!!
Happy Hump Day!
Here is another one of the cards everyone stamping with me at my October classes will be making!
 I will update this sometime soon with a supply list.
Isn't this Santa just so cute!
And I love the file folder look made with the new Envelope Punch Board too.

I have been a stamping fool creating my Christmas Stamp-a-Stack cards!
They are all done!
I ended up creating 15 different ones as there are so many cute Christmas sets in the Holiday Catalog that I just couldn't narrow it down to the normal 9 different cards that I usually do.
I will be getting pictures of them, figuring out the prices & sending out emails the first part of next week or before.
I can't wait for you to see them!
I like them all, but I definitely have a couple of favorites!

If you are stamping with me anytime soon- (tomorrow night, Friday night or Sunday afternoon) 
I'll have them with me & on a display board for you to see!

Gotta run.....
I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!
