This weeks new Weekly Deals- Oct. 29 - Nov. 4!

Here is a great masculine card!

Good morning!
Here is a great masculine card that I made for a swap that I was in.
Isn't it cool!
I made it with the new Envelope Punch Board.
I just love it!
The top flips open.
 'Remembering Christmas' & 'Wetlands'
cs:  Chocolate Chip, Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla
ink:  Chocolate Chip
supplies:  Big Shot, Woodgrain Embossing folder, Circle framelits, sponge, Paper Snips, Envelope Punch Board

Our day yesterday was fun with Ryker joining us.
The boys played well together.
And Brayden was here to visit awhile after school.
He was excited that Papa was hauling in bales from the field that he mowed, raked & had baled from our cornstalks left from picking our corn last weekend.

When it rains it pours.....as my ice maker leaked all over my kitchen floor.
I have fans on it drying it out now.....so upset as we just got the trim on in the kitchen last Tuesday from the water damage in July from my washing machine.
Uggh......I just want my house to be all done & put back in order again.

Today I'm hopefully going to get caught up on lots of things that happened last week that I didn't have time to do since I was getting ready for STYC.
And then tonight I'm a farmer & will be helping Deke outside.

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!
Happy Stamping!
HUGS!

And I am blessed with a wonderful husband who is very supportive of my Stampin' Up! bussiness.  
He helped me all week with little things along the way in preparing, plus the setting up & cleaning up- as I couldn't have done my event without him!
I have 3 little boys with me all day today!
Ryker will be coming to spend the day with us & play with the boys.
So we'll be having a fun & busy day!

I hope you have a MARVELOUS Monday!
Happy Stamping!

A Smoky Slate Snowflake card

Hello!
Here is the last one my set of 3 snowflake cards for my Christmas Card class/kit.
 I just love this Circle (Flip) Thinlit!
And I love the new Smoky Slate (light gray) color!

'Festive Flurry' & 'Joy to the World'
cs:  Night of Navy, Smoky Slate, Whisper White
ink:  Night of Navy
supplies:  Big Shot, Circle Card (Flip) Thinlit, 2 2/12" Circle Punch, Festive Flurry Framelits, Large Rhinetson, Snow Flurry embossing folder, dimensionals 

I am still alive!!
Wow.....I'm beat & feel like I've been ran over by a truck.
But I finally got some sleep last night, as I slept for about 10 hours straight!
Wow- that is probably more sleep than than I've had combined the rest of the whole week!

Yesterday's Fall Stamp' Til You Cramp was WONDERFUL!
Thanks to all of you that joined me for this annual Stamp Camp.
I had a room full of ladies that all had so much fun stamping together & creating all of the projects that I had for them to make.
I honestly don't even know how many projects I created & they stamped yesterday.
It was LOTS & LOTS!
I will count them soon- as I'm headed back to start picking & packing up everything.

Last night I just walked out the door & left the huge mess when the last ladies were done.
I'll spend my whole day over there today cleaning up.

I hope you have a SENSATIONAL Sunday & can enjoy this beautiful Fall day!
Be sure to stop back by tomorrow for another stamped creation that I'll be sharing with you!

Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

A lovely Christmas Dove!

Good morning!
Wow......when I saw this dove in the Holiday Catalog I can honestly say that it wasn't one that I thought I'd ever buy.
BUT- then at Founders I got 2 awesome swaps from friends.
Sarah's had the rolled banner like this one.
And Kay's was stamped in Crumb Cake.
So I combined some of their ideas & came up with this pretty card for one of my Christmas Card Class/Kits!
I really like it!
 I will hopefully get caught up on supplies lists for cards that I've posted the past week in the new couple of days.

WOO HOO!!!
Today is my Fall Stamp 'Til You Cramp!
Wow......I've spend a lot of time planning, creating & cutting for this big day!
I can't wait to share & spend my day stamping with many of my friends.

I hope you have a SUPER Saturday!!
Happy Stamping!
HUGS!

Wow! Check out this ornament punch!

Good morning!
Here is another one of my Christmas card class/kit cards.
I love it when Stampin' Up! coordinates stamp sets with punches!
This makes for a quick way to add a popped up layer to your card.
(I will catch up with supply posting after STYC.)
 
Woo Hoo!!!
Is it really Friday- Yikes!
I'm making progress......but I am still cutting card stock!
Oh my gosh....maybe I need to rename this upcoming Fall even to something else.....
as yes- I'm Stampin' 'til I Cramp!
My shoulders, neck, back, feet, legs, etc.
BUT I can't wait for tomorrow, so I can share all of my cute creations with all that are joining me to stamp all day!
We are going to have a FABULOUS day!

Update:
Brody had a good report yesterday from Lonnie.
She was going to have Dr. Menezes read the x-rays & will be calling with his results.
But she said that their was definite bone growth since his last x-ray & she had no concerns.
And that is what we've been praying for, as I sure would hate to see him  have to have another surgery in his future.
But we will handle whatever we have to I guess.
So we'll continue our prayers that the bone will continue to grow & close shut.
AND
Brody was so also good to lay still for them to be able to do the x-ray too!

Drake had a long day with "just" Grandma.
Good thing he isn't an only child!
He missed his brother terrible & I know Brody missed him too.
They are just never apart- so this was different for all of us.
It was so cute to see how excited the twins were to see each other when Brody got home.

Ok...back to work!
I hope you have SUPER Friday!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

A 'Santa's List' flip card!

Good morning!
Here is another card for my Christmas card/kit class.
(I will update supplies in the next few days.)

The different ways to use this Circle Thinlit are endless!
I just love it!

Brody has a doctor's appointment with Neurology today in Iowa City.
Manda & Steve will be taking him.
He will be having an x-ray this time (no sedated MRI)!
He isn't scheduled to see Dr. Menezes this time, he is to just see Lonnie.
Please keep Brody in your prayers that the bone hole is closing now & all looks good!

So Drake is going to be hanging out with Grandma today in my Stamp Studio!
I am gaining......oh my gosh do I have piles & piles of card stock everywhere!

I hope you have a wonderful day!!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

Another Poinsettia Christmas card.....

Good morning!

Here is another card that I designed for my upcoming Christmas card class.
 Isn't it a beautiful card!
(I will update my posts with supply lists sometime in the next few days.)

Wow- Mackenzy came yesterday & spent the day working on my trim & flooring!
He isn't quite done- but made alot of progress & did an awesome job!
He is very picky & I love his corners & edges, as he puts precision & detail into his work.
I don't have enough trim for him to finish the job, so I will make a trip to Menards the first part of next week & get a few more oak pieces to get stained & varnished for him to come back sometime next week & get it all done!
I didn't have time for him to be here.....as I needed to be stamping every spare minute I had.
But I have also been wanting him to get here to do this for me- so I'm not going to complain but be thankful & whatever I get done, I get done for STYC.

The twins loved watching Mackenzy working on the trim & he was so good with them. 
You can tell he has 2 little boys at home & is a wonderful daddy. 
He ate lunch with us too since he was here, so that he didn't have to run to town.
 I made baked shell taco salads.
It was nice to visit with him & I think he liked my tacos as he had seconds.

Aunt Kathy is stopping by today & I'm sending some pieces home for her to Big Shot cut for me.
Plus Judy has been doing some Big Shot cutting for me too!
I have so many cute projects to share & I can't wait for the girls to see them on Saturday at my STYC!

Ok....back to work I go!
I hope the boys play well today & I'm going to try to find a good movie for them to watch while I create & cut.
I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

Good morning!
Here is another card that I created for my Christmas Card class/kits.
I love that this set has an awesome punch to go with it!
 Our new Smoky Slate is just very striking isn't it?
I love the script & big wording of this Season's Greeting words from 
'Joy to the World' in the Holiday Catalog.

WOW......I've had very little sleep & done nothing but stamp every spare second  I can the past 4 days......getting ready for Stamp 'Til You Cramp!
