A fall 'Painted Harvest'

This is a pretty fall card using the 'Painted Harvest' stamp set.  My inspiration for this card came from my dear stampin' friend- LeeAnn Greff.  We share & stamp together alot from afar thanks to texting & emails. 

I used the colors- Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze & Soft Suede.  They are oh so pretty together!!

Check out how I did the scalloped layer behind the 2" Circle punch.  This is something that I discovered a few years ago & shared on one of my swaps on a SU! trip.  I have done this layering before on a few other cards over the years posted on my blog, that I've done at stamp classes too.  I love that is gives a different look. 

How did I do it?

•  2x 2 3/4" piece of card stock stock.
• Punch both ends with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch
• There will be the little notches from the Tag Topper, but the circle will cover it up!

I did a quick search on my blog & found a few.......You can see some of my other cards that I layered this way by clicking on the links below-

Last night was a busy night trying to get alot done before I head out.  

This morning I'm off to take the boys to school & spend part of my day with Trey.  (Sarah's grandma is coming to stay with their kids the rest of this week since I'll be gone.)  Deke is off early to chore & then he is headed to Mt. Pleasant for a meeting.  When he gets home from there I'm headed to the airport & he'll keep Trey the rest of the afternoon.  They'll be outside working- picking our corn!   

I plan to post on my blog each day while I'm in Salt Lake City, Utah, as long as all goes ok & we have internet in the hotel.  

I'm so looking forward to seeing many of my demonstrator friends from afar.  And I'm excited about spending time with my team- Lynda, Cindy & Lorraine- who are going with me!! We are meeting each other at the airport & spending the next 5 days/nights together.  

 

I can't wait to see what fun new things Stampin' Up! has in store to share with us.  I'll be excited to get home & share with all of you in the coming months.

I've gotta run......

I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!

Happy Stamping!

A 'Seasonal Chums' snowman!

Oh.....those of you that know me & have stamped with me for year, know that I LOVE snowmen!!!  This is cute little snowman that is from the 'Seasonal Chums' stamp set in the Holiday Catalog on page 47.  It comes with framelits in a bundle too!  And it is actually a tag bundle!  I just cut off his back & didn't use it on this card, but it is very cute & cool too, so be sure you check it out!

This is another one of the many cards that we did at my Holiday Extravaganza.  I love how the big snowflake embossing folder just went perfect with this.  And the little white cut out snowflake is also one of the framelits in the Seasonal Tags Framelits Dies!  

When I add snow to a card, I often just cut a strip of card stock & rip it......and that is exactly what I did here for the snow.  I did add the Wink of Stella over the top of it to add some additional dimension & glimmer! 

The words- Seasonal Greetings that I used here comes from the 'Cheers to the Year' stamp set on page 37 of the Holiday Catalog.

I colored this cute little snowman with my Marvelous Markers!  

Oh & check out the Clear Faceted Gem in the center of the little snowflake to add some more bling!

stamp set:  'Seasonal Chums' & 'Cheers to the Year' 
card stock:  Thick Whisper White, Marina Mist, Whisper White

Yesterday was a busy day with all 6 kids.  It is fun to get them all together & I love spending time with them.  We are blessed they are all so close by.  My friend Jenny- sent home an air hockey table game & some magnetic builders & a couple of board games with me when I saw her on Sunday.  Thus- she was a God Sent & helped to keep the boys occupied with some fun new things to do!  It was just too cold to go outside to play.  So we tried to keep busy!  We did lots of coloring, cutting & crafting too. 

Brayden did go out & help Papa patch some of the curtains on the finisher for about an hour.  He had fun!  And Papa said he was great help too!  Thankfully they were on the side where the wind wasn't blowing & it was too cold for them. 

When the kids all went home last night I entered orders, connected with hostesses & did some farm bookwork.  Deke had a meeting to go to with our engineer, so I was home alone. 

This morning I'm off to get the boys to school & spend my day with Trey, Masen & Ainslee.  We have some errands to run this morning if all goes as I have planned.

Tonight when the kids go home I'll be burning the midnight oil stamping!  And packing!!  Tomorrow I'm headed to Salt Lake, Utah to attend our Stampin' Up! On Stage event.  I have 3 of my team going with me- Lynda, Cindy & Lorraine.  I know we are all excited to see what fun new things Stampin' Up! has in store for us. 

Gotta run.....

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!
Happy Stamping!

'Christmas Quilt'

Here is another clean & simple card.  I LOVE it!  The red strip in the middle is actually embossed using the Quilt Top Embossing folder.  You can't really see it in the photos.  Here is what that Quilt Top Embossing Folder image looks like-

 

 It is pretty & very detailed.

I cut a window framelit out of the Whisper White card stock.  Then I layered behind it a 3x3 piece of the Quilted Christmas designer paper that had the star image already on it.  I did use the stitched framelit over the quilt star too. Look closely at this star below to see it.

I used the Stampin' Blend in Light Cherry Cobbler to color a Perfect White Accent for the center of the start quilt piece.

Oh my......we have a crazy day!  I hope it all just clicks & works out good.  I'm getting everything ready for another Christmas Stamp-a-Stack class this morning here at our home.  Then we have our Wood Family photos taken right after lunch.  Then we have Deke's cousins daughters wedding/reception too this afternoon/evening.  I sure hope it doesn't rain at all today to spoil any of our outdoor events.  Tonight when we get home from the reception  I'll be packing up for tomorrows stamp class in N. Liberty.   And I'll be cutting some Christmas card kits.  

I hope you have SENSATIONAL Saturday!!!

Black & white cards are always a favorite of mine!  I thought this card is very striking.  I added Crumb Cake & Gold Foil to it too!

Yesterday was a busy day with kids.  Then I worked out on the farm helping Deke sort hogs.  Thankfully Steve came & helped us too.  When we got done with that we went to Deke's aunt & uncles 50th Anniversary Surprise party.  And then I worked on stamping stuff when we got home from the party. 

It was a short night, as this morning we are up bright & early at 5 & headed out the door.  We are marking, sorting & loading hogs.  Hopefully the trucker isn't late as I need to get to Manda's to pick up the boys.  I'll then go to Nathans & pick up their 3 kids & spend my day with all 6 of them, as there is no school today!

Tonight I have Stampin' Class here at our home.  It is my first Christmas Stamp-A-Stack Class of the month!  I am looking forward to seeing everyone joining me & stamping with them tonight.

'Smitten Mitten' tags!

I used the 'Smitten Mitten' stamp set & coordinating Many Mitten Framelits, along with the Merry Music Specialty Designer Paper to decorate the bags for everyone attending my Holiday Extravaganza.

Below are some photos of everything as it was all set up for my event.  I took these pictures just minutes before I unlocked the door for everyone to come in for the class.  We had a wonderful day together stamping!  I can honestly say it was pretty much a perfect day!

I am so blessed to have such a nice building that I can rent for my events.  It is within 15 minutes of our home.  It has 2 bathrooms & a small kitchen (with all of the appliances), plus great lighting, soft chairs & lots of tables!  Plus I get to set up on Friday night & clean up on Sunday.   

There were 23 tables, for the 23 projects, all set up for everyone to move table to table & make each project.  Plus they got their bags (shown above), a little test tube thank you treat I made up for each of them & a take home Make & Take kit with a Pizza Box & 3 note cards- using the Quilted Christmas DSP, with the Stitched Felt Embellishments.  

I was so happy with myself that I remembered my camera to be able to take these pictures.  But after the event I was bummed with myself, as I had wanted to get pictures of everyone stamping sometime throughout the day, but that didn't happen.  I was so busy with everything else I forgot.

We also had a yummy lunch!  I made shredded pork sandwiches, cheesy potatoes, layered lettuce salad & green beans w/bacon.  Plus many of my friends were sweet enough to bring snacks & we had a whole table full of bars, cookies & mixes!  

++++++

I burnt the midnight oil cutting card stock last night after the kids went home.

I'm off early this morning, as Manda has an early meeting!!  I'll spend my day with the 3 little ones.  The 3 bigger ones will be here for awhile, as they'll ride the bus out & school gets out early today.  Tonight when the kids go home I'm headed out to help Deke sort & move pigs.  And then we have a surprise Anniversary party for his aunt & uncle to attend later tonight too.  We won't be there too late......but we will go for a tiny bit.  

Gotta run.........
I hope you have a great Thursday!!
Happy Stamping!

'Ready for Christmas'

Can you say SOOO CUTE!!  Wow- this stamp set- 'Ready for Christmas' looked adorable in the Holiday Catalog when I first saw it.  I just kept thinking I didn't want to have to cut it all out.  Well- I finally did!  And it wasn't too hard to do!  And look how stinkin' cute it turned out! 

Growing up, my Grandma Cox had a staircase like this, with her Christmas tree at the bottom of it with the packages.  So I created this card with memories of my childhood in mind.  I love the way it turned out.  And let me tell you- that staircase was easy to cut out with the thinlits.  I was so totally impressed! 

This is another one of my many cards that I created for my Holiday Extravaganza.  I had several comment on this card that day- which made me feel good.  I had the thinlits out for them to cut out the stockings, the ornaments & the presents.  But really- those are all really easy to hand cut out with scissors.  But you definitely need the thinlits for the staircase & the garland.

Yesterday was a busy day with kids.  They all came Trick-or-Treating last night.  We then went to Nathan & Sarah's home for supper.  When I got home I burnt the midnight oil cutting card stock!

This morning Deke is off early to chore & head to his office at the courthouse.  I'm off to get the boys, take them to school & spend my day with the 3 little ones.  The twins get out of school early, so they will ride the bus out here.  When everyone is gone home tomorrow night I'll be burning the midnight oil cutting card stock! 

I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!!

'Gourd Goodness'

Happy Halloween everyone!!!   I hope your day is Spooktacular!!! 

Todays card is a traditional pumpkin card......and don't these pumpkins look so real! They are from the stamp set- 'Gourd Goodness'.  I think this card would make a great Thanksgiving card too!  Especially with the words I added to the front of it.  The words in this stamp set- 'Paisleys & Posies' are just some of my favorite words ever! 

This is an easy 2 step stamp for these pumpkins!  I stamped the more solid image pumpkins in Crushed Curry first.  And then I stamped over them with the more detailed stamp, using Pumpkin Pie.  

I used the Light Crumb Cake NEW Stampin' Blend underneath the pumpkins!  And the dots are from the stamp set- 'Timeless Textures'.

Look closely at the background, as it is embossed with the Pinewood Embossing Folder.

For the bow I used the Jute Twine.  It has 3 strands wrapped together, so I pulled them apart- which made the kind of crinkled.  I liked the different texture look of it this way.  And it is also less bulky when you go to mail it too!  Plus it goes alot farther!  

stamp sets:  'Gourd Goodness', Timeless Textures' & 'Paisleys & Posies'

Yesterday was a busy day with the 3 litter kids.  The 3 big boys were here just a little bit right after school.  Mondays are always days of catching up from the weekend of being gone to stamp classes & getting the kids back into my routine here.  As of the moment, everyone is healthy!  I pray it stays that way!   I have my fingers crossed forsure! 

 

Last night I worked on farm bookwork, did some stamping stuff & worked on our pile of laundry!  

 

This morning I'm off to pick up kids & spend the day with the little ones.  Tonight I'll be cutting card stock!!  I have 3 of my 5 Christmas Stamp-a-Stack classes this coming weekend, so I have lots of cutting to do!  You can see those cards BY CLICKING HERE!

'Every Good Wish'

Here is a fun card using the NEW Stampin' Blends!!

This stamp set is called- "Every Good Wish".  I love how it is a solid image stamp, thus the inside words of 'be merry' were left white.  So I took my Light & Dark Old Olive Stampin' Blends & colored the words in.  I then added the Wink of Stella over the top of it.

Look closely at the Basic Rhinestones in the middle of the holly leaves.  I colored the rhinestones with the Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blend!

I spent my whole day in South English yesterday stamping & cleaning up from my Holiday Extravaganza Class.  I had a few demonstrator friends from afar come help me & they did some stamping too!  It was a fun day!! And I so enjoyed getting to catch up with them, as we rarely see each other.  And bless Deke for coming to help put away tables/chairs, vaccum, load up our vehicles there & unload everything when we got home.  He has helped me tons the past 3 weeks for this big weekend event & I am thankful for all he did!

Last night I burnt the midnight oil working on my upcoming Christmas Card Stamp A Stack projects! 

This morning Deke is up early to chore & head to the office for his weekly board meeting.  I'm up early to work on stamping stuff & then go get the boys, take the twins to school & spend my day with the 3 little ones.
