 My whole weekend is pretty much stamping!!!!  I look forward to seeing & sharing with all of those joining me.  Last night I had a fun group that joined me at our home to stamp for one of my August monthly classes.  When they went home I burnt the midnight oil working on stamping stuff.  
This morning I'm up to start the roaster of meat for Masen's party.  And bake a cake.  And then I have to finish cutting card stock for my morning class.......as I have a group of stampers joining me pretty soon for another August monthly class.  Then this afternoon at 1:00 I have some friends coming to visit me for a bit.  And then I'll finish getting the meat done, frost the cake, haul tables & chairs up to the Wood house & we're celebrating Masen's party tonight at their shop.  

Tonight I'll be packing things up & finish cutting card stock for my 2 classes I have in Hiawatha tomorrow.  Darla & Kathy are my hostesses.  I look forward to seeing them, sharing & stamping!!

Gotta run......
I hope you have a SUPER Saturday!!

'Painted Glass'

Happy Thursday!!

Today I'm sharing a fun card I created last month for a group of my stampers.  I used the Suite- 'Painted Glass' stamp set, coordinating Stained Glass Framelits & Graceful Glass vellum.  Isn't it just so pretty! 

Check out the cool punch!  It is from the Darling Label Punch Box- on page 209 in the Annual Catalog.  You'll have to look it up!  It comes in a cute tin box, along with a clear block, 6 photopolymer stamps & 2 ink spots!  

I used my Embossing Mats & a framelit to do the bottom of this card front. 

How did I do the 3 images?

• Punched out 3 shapes from Whisper White card stamp.
• Punched out 3 shapes from the Graceful Glass vellum & adhered these together with a glue dot in the center (so it wouldn't show after I put the images on).
• Stamped 2 image each of the bird, rose & butterfly onto Whisper White card stock.
• I colored them using my Light & Dark Poppy Parade & the Dark Pineapple Punch- Stampin' Blends.
• I then used my Big Shot, Magnetic Platform & the coordinating framelits to cut out these 3 images.
• Using Dimensionals, I popped ups these 3 images & put them onto the punched out pieces.

stamp set:  'Painted Glass'
card stock:  Pineapple Punch, Poppy Parade, Basic Black, Whisper White
designer paper:  Graceful Glass
ink:  Black Memento
Stampin' Blends:  Light & Dark Poppy Parade, Dark Pineapple Punch, Color Lifter
other:  Darling Label Punch, Big Shot, Magnetic Platform, Stained Glass Framelits, Standard Platform, Embossing Mats, Dimensionals, Glue Dots

Yesterday was a busy day with the kids.  When they went home last night I stamped.  We had the Seeley family & the Wood family stopped down for about 45 mins to visit & the kids played outside.  We hunted for toads & lighting bugs!  When they went home I burnt the midnight oil stamping!

This morning I'm up early to walk & get ready for the kids to get here early.  Manda & her boys will come out later today to help me.  She is going to stay here with Masen & Ainslee & her 3 boys- as I'm a farmer for awhile!  We have new baby piggies coming, so I'll go out to help Deke with them for a few hours.

Tonight I'll be burning the midnight oil cutting card stock!

I hope you have a great Thursday!!

Happy Stamping!

Happy Hump Day!!
Today I'm sharing another card created with the 'Blended Seasons' bundle!  This is a card that everyone joining me this week, for my August monthly classes will be making!!!  Fall is my favorite time of the year, so I love using these colors together with leaves! 

I used the Stamparatus to stamp the leaves on the Nature's Poem Designer Paper!  

Check out the Gold leaf.  I used the Big Shot, Magnetic Platform & framelit.  BEFORE I removed the framelit from the Gold Foil Embossed image I added 3 dimensionals to the back side of it (to hold the pieces inside of it).  

This would make a great guy card, sympathy card, etc....

NOTE:  This stamp set & framelits are available this month (August 2018) ONLY & they are while supplies last!   If you want it- don't wait until it is sold out!

'Bouquet Blooms' Circle stamping!

This is a clean & simple card.  But it was a fun one that I did at my last team meeting.  I did the the circle stamping (also called round to round).  I used my Stamparatus & stamped the flowers in the circle layout.

Yesterday was a busy day with kids.  Last night I went to town to water Manda's plants & get their mail.  And then I worked on orders & bookwork.  I made a quick (late night trip) to What Cheer to make a night deposit & finally called it a night around 11:00.  Not getting any sleep last weekend was catching up with me.  

This morning I'm up early to walk & spend my day with 2 Wood kids.  The Seeley family is home from their vacation, so I'll see them sometime today too for a bit.  Tonight I'll be finishing up placing orders & connecting with my hostess.  And I hope I have time to stamp for my upcoming team meeting that I have on Saturday afternoon!  

Have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!!

Happy Stamping!

Are you tired of seeing different projects the past week that I created with this awesome- Color Your Season Bundle?  They are all different!!  Isn't it amazing the variety & the versatility there is in this Bundle!

You can CLICK here to read more about this LIMITED TIME ONLY bundle- Color Your Season!

Wow- this card doesn't have much stamping on it!  It is lean & simple.  But it give a totally different look to this Color Your Season Bundle, doesn't it!

You can't tell by the photo, but I embossed the Granny Apple Green with the Subtle's Embossing Folder.  It gives a linen like/cheese cloth texture.

I used the SPECIAL BUNDLE for this card!

The flower/leaves are from the Stitched Seasons Framelits.  And the words are from the Blended Seasons stamp set. 

How did I do it?

• I cut the flowers/leaves out of the Whisper White card stock.
• I used the negative image of this & put a piece of Granny Apple Green card stock behind it.
• I then cut another flowers/leaves image out of the Gorgeous Grape card stock, cut off the 3 flowers with my paper snips & popped them up using dimensionals (over the negative image leaves).

Yesterday was a great day of stamping with everyone that joined me!! Teri had yummy treats, we stamped cute cards & had a wonderful time visiting!  And to top it off, everyone left the class with their NEW Holiday Catalog in their hands!  

I stopped & picked up a Casey's pizza for our supper on my way home last night & then unloaded my car load of stamping stuff after we ate.  Deke & I ended up watching a movie & called it a night.  

This morning we are up early.  Deke will chore & then head to the courthouse for his weekly board meeting.  He'll work on the farm this afternoon, chore again & then head to Fairfield to a meeting down there he has tonight.  

I'm gonna walk, move all of the stamping stuff (unloaded from my Traverse) that is sitting all over the family room & get ready to spend my day with Masen & Ainslee.  Tonight when they go home I'm stamping!!  I have the projects created for my monthly classes, I just need to get the supplies all cut.  I have projects to create & cut for my team meeting I have coming up.  Our week is just jam packed!! I pray I can get everything done.  I have the 2 kids every day, we sell hogs early one morning, get baby piggies in on Thursday & I have 5 stamp classes to get ready for that I have- a monthly class here on Friday night; a monthly class here on Saturday morning; a team meeting here on Saturday afternoon & then I'm in CR all day on Sunday for my morning & afternoon monthly classes there.  Plus we have to squeeze in Masen's birthday party that we have on Saturday night- which includes cooking a roaster of pork for & baking a couple of chocolate sheet cakes too!  

I hope you have a MARVELOUS Monday!

Happy Stamping!

Look at the bow!  How did I do it?

• I used my Embossing Mats with the Garden Green card stock & Bow framelit.  I had to fussy cut out around the bow.   
• I used the bow frameit & Cherry Cobbler card stock & cut out another bow.
• Using the Fine Tip Glue I layered & attached the 2 bows

This is clean, simple & so pretty!  I just love the way it turned out!

This is a fun Christmas card using the 'Blended Season' stamp set & coordinating Stitched Seasons framleits.  This stamp set & framelits are available in a BUNDLE!

I used the #2 Assortment Watercolor Pencils to color the Holly & the Leaves.  

How did I do the bow?

• I used the bow framelit & the Embossing Mats to do the bow.  
• I had to use my Paper Snips & fussy cut around the outside edge of it.

How did I do the holly berries?

• I used the framelits & cut the leaves out of the Garden Green.
• I then used the same framelit & cut just the berries out the Cherry Cobbler & snipped them off (so I just had the tiny berry part) using my Paper Snips.
• I used my Fine Tipped Glue to attach the berries to the leaves.

I also used my Fine Tip Glue over the top of the colored berries to make them shinny!  Just be sure you let them dry for about 30 mins before you touch them or anything so that it doesn't get smeared.  

Look at the ends of the strip in the center of the card that has the holly & berries on it.  Check out the Garden Green ends.  I used the REVERSE piece of the framelit to make these.

Yesterday was a busy day with kids.  We went up to my mom's home to visit her, my step-dad Dick,  Aunt Virginia, Uncle Larry & cousin Le.  Uncle Larry & Le came down from McGregor to visit & bring LOTS of quilts that my Aunt Anita had made.  She passed away earlier this year & he is cleaning closets.  Oh my gosh......I am blessed!!  I got several of them.....so finished & some not finished...I will treasure them forsure. 

Last night the guys went racing.  I wanted to go, but knew I had too much I had to get caught up on her at home.  Nathan won his heat & he won the main too!!!  Yeah!!

Today I'm home (alone I think) & will be stamping all day!  I hope I have good mojo!

I hope you have a SENSATIONAL Saturday!

Happy Stamping!

It is FABULOUS Friday & I have a pretty card for you!

Those of you that know me, know that I LOVE fall!!  

This is a clean & simple card, but I love the way it turned out!  It is a totally Susie card. 

How did I do it?

• I stamped the leaves onto the Whisper White card stock using my Black Stazon pad.
• Then using Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze & Old Olive & a separate sponge for all 3 colors- I lightly sponged the colors in various places to add color.  I tapped, tapped, tapped- LIGHTLY!

TIP:  Notice how the ink almost has little dots like......so it is important to make sure you lightly tap, tap, tap & don't push or rub or your color will turn out alot darker.

HERE IS ANOTHER TIP:
I didn't want my leaf to be all the way cut out.  So I CAREFULLY added a few dimensionals on the backside of the leave BEFORE I removed it from the framelit!  That way it would keep all of the pieces inside the leaf instead of them being cut out.  

stamp set: 'Blended Season'
card stock:  Old Olive, Cajun Craze, Whisper White

Yesterday was a busy day with kids.  In the morning, Brayden spent several hours outside helping Deke move feeder pigs out the nurseries & into the outside lot building.  Brayden was excited & Deke was happy to have the help.  So Ainslee & Masen went with me & we ran errands in town.  Then yesterday afternoon we enjoyed the nice weather again outside.  And when the kids went home I spent my night working on stamping stuff.

This morning I'm up early to walk & will then spend my day with the kids.  My uncle Larry is coming to visit all of us at my mom's later this morning.  He lives in McGregor & we only get to see him a few times a year.  So the kids & I run up there to visit for awhile. 

I'm not sure what we will end up doing tonight.  I need to stay home & stamp.  But Nathan wants to go to Columbus Junction & race.......so we'll see how our day goes & if Deke gets done moving pigs in time I might end up going with everyone.  We haven't raced there all yet & I really don't want to miss it.  

Gotta run.......

I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!!

Happy Stamping!

Graceful Glass- a stained glass window easel card!

Good morning!!  Can you believe that it is the last day of July already?  Wow- this month just flew by.

Don't forget that today is the last day to take advantage of the Buy 3 Designer Papers & get one for FREE!  You can see that special by CLICKING HERE! 

Check out this cool card!  I think it turned out really pretty! 

I was playing with coloring some of the images in this Graceful Glass (6x6) Vellum pack.  This square worked out perfect to do this fun fold with. 

Isn't this vellum just beautiful!  It really does look like a stained glass window.  

The front side of the vellum has a black embossed image on it.  

If you want it to be more subtle- like a true stained glass window- then color it on the back side of the vellum/image.  If you want it to be more bold & vibrant- then color it on the front side.

Look at it when it opened up!  It is a fun fold easel card.

Yesterday was a busy day with 6 kids!  Manda & I got the twins birthday invites created & ended up making 19 of them. Their party is going to be at the park.....so I'll share their card sometime soon.  It turned out really cute!

The kids had fun playing together.  Weather wise it was a beautiful day out for July!  So I'm glad they got to be out in it & enjoy it!

Last night when the kids went home I was a farmer.  I headed outside to work on the farm & help Deke.  Steve came out to help us awhile too, as we had lots of pigs to sort.  

When I got in I made supper & worked on getting more things that were in our wet bathroom put away.  And I did a little stamping stuff before we finally called it a night.  Deke had a terrible day, as the hopper on one of the bins broke & he had almost 5 tons of feed all over the finisher.  He had to scoop it up with a shovel, cart out & reload it in the mixer.  It was a huge mess!  I felt so bad for him.  Brayden went out to help him for awhile when he got home from his board meeting.  And our feed guy, Dustin helped him for about an hour too.  And on top of everything else, Deke picked up a bad cold too (probably on the plane).  I sure hope that none of the rest of us end up getting it.

This morning I'm up early to walk & spend my day with the 3 Wood kids.  I have my yearly allergy dr appointment later this afternoon in Bloomfield.  I have to pick up Manda on my way home (as they are getting their van worked on).  And then tonight I'm gonna work on stamping stuff!

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!

Happy Stamping!
