'Pleasant Pheasants'

Here is another fun fall card.  What a great new stamp set this is!!  It is called- 'Pleasant Pheasants'!  

Check out the beautiful Joyous Noel Special DSP.  It has a cooper accent that just makes it so classy!  The back side of this DSP is all the Tranquil Tide in color with leaves on it- so you could just flip it over & it would make the perfect guy card too!  I know we have several hunters in our family & all of them would just love a card like this for their birthday!

This is another one of the cards that I created for my September monthly classes that I'm having this week!  Are you coming to stamp with me?  If so, you get to make this cool card!!

I made another card using this 'Pleasant Pheasants' stamp set.

Yesterday was a busy day with the kids.  We enjoyed the beautiful weather again & got to be outside some.  Oh how I the sunshine & the crisp air!  Fall is on it's way!  And I love fall!

Last night Deke worked late & I burnt the midnight oil working on stamping stuff!

This morning we are up early.  Deke is off to chore & head to his office at the courthouse. He'll then head to Mt. Pleasant for an afternoon meeting- so he'll be gone all day!

And I'm headed to Manda's, as she has an early meeting.  I'll take the boys to school & then spend my day with the 3 little ones.  Tonight the 3 big boys will ride the bus out again after school.  The twins have a FB game & Brayden has FB practice- so we'll be headed to town to watch the twins game.  I'll then work on cutting card stock & burning the midnight oil again when we get home!

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

'Farmhouse Christmas' Truck!

Ok- so you all know that I love fall!!  Look closely at this truck!!  I made it into a fall card!  Check out the back of this truck.  It is suppose to have a Christmas tree in it.  But I took my paper snips, cut off the tip of the tree & colored it orange to make it look like a truck full of leaves instead!  

I think this set-  'Farmhouse Christmas'  it another great one in the Holiday Catalog!  It is a totally me set that I know I can use for many different occasions.   And it is even more amazing since it has coordinating framelits to go with it!!  Woo Hoo!

I also made a card for Steve's birthday using this stamp set.  You can check out his black truck card by CLICKING HERE!!!  It is pretty cute too! 

I colored the truck using my Stampin' Blends!  This old truck reminds me of Deke's Uncle Ben's old red Dodge that he restored, years ago.  The wheels are colored with the NEW Light Black Stampin' Blend!!!  It is great!!!  I'm thrilled that we now have so many colors of Stampin' Blends!

Yesterday was a busy day with kids.  Last night we took the 3 Seeley boys & went to the school PTO supper called Pasta for Grandparents.  After we ate supper the boys played on the playground.  And then we went up town & they got ice cream for their dessert!

I'm off this morning to take the boys to school.  I'll spend my day with the 3 little ones.  The 3 big ones will be here after school.  And tonight I have LOTS of stamping to get done. 

Today is my moms birthday.  And today Deke's mom is having an angiogram done.

'Country Home'- a fun z fold!

I LOVE this stamp set called 'Country Home' & is so on trend with the Farm House decor that is everywhere!  It is the perfect set for so many occasions!!

 It is a fun z fold card.  Here is what it looks like when it is opened up.  

You can't tell by the picture, but I added the Wink of Stella over the cotton!!  It just give an extra little glimmer to the cotton that love!

Here is what it looks like when it is standing up.  

Are you wondering how I stamped the flowers to make them look like they are sitting down inside the vase?  I used my Stamparatus!!!  I had the pitcher on one of the doors & the flowers on the other door!  SOOOO EASY!  

Check out the amazing Tin Tiled Embossing folder that I added along the edge here.  I embossed a 5 1/4 x 2" piece of our new Galvanized Metallic paper!  Oh it is gorgeous!!!

Behind the ribbon I have a new Galvanized Clip that I slid onto the edge of my card stock & then tied a twine ribbon onto it.  

So what do you think?  

Oh......did you notice how I cut out around only 1/2 of the pitcher of flowers?  I just used my paper snips to do this.  It wasn't hard at all.  It is just an awesome way to add that little special touch to the card & show off more of the beautiful DSP!

stamp set:  'Country Home'
card stock:

• Smoky Slate- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2- card base- score at 2 1/8 & 4 1/4"

'Buffalo Check' combined with 'Many Blessings'!

This is one of the cards for my September monthly classes. I used the 'Many Blessings' stamp set!!  

I combined it with the new 'Buffalo Check' background stamp, which I just love!  Doesn't it look super cute with these daisies!  It is sooo fallish!!!  Yeah- my favorite time of year!  I'm just lovin' all of the fun new things for fall in the new Holiday Catalog. 

And check out the NEW Corrugated Embossing Folder!!  It is awesome too!!!

stamp sets:  'Buffalo Check' & 'Many Blessings'

card stock:  

• Thick Very Vanilla- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2" - card base- score at 4 1/4" & fold in half
• Basic Black- 2 3/4" Strip- to punch out Starburst Punc; 5 1/4 x 4"- card layer
• Crumb Cake- 3 3/4 x 1"- stamp words onto the left edge of this; 4 1/4 x 2 1/4"- embossing with Corrugated Embossing Folder, 3 3/4 x 5"- stamp the 'Buffalo Check' background stamp onto this
• Very Vanilla- 2 1/4" strip- to stamp flowers/vase onto, color & punch out using the 1 3/4" Circle Punch, 4 x 5 1/4"- stamp words onto for inside greeting

ink:  Black Memento

Stampin' Blends:  Light Old Olive, Light & Dark Crumb Cake, Dark Cajun Craze, Light & Dark Daffodil Delight

other:  Big Shot, Standard Platform, Corrugated Embossing folder, 1 3/4" Circle Punch Starburst Punch, Black Twine, dimensionals, glue dots. Wink of Stella

A TIP ABOUT USING THE CORRUGATED EMBOSSING FOLDER:  
When using the Corrugated Embossing folder I found that running it through so that the ripples go horizontally works the best.  If you run it through the other way it puts too much pressure on the ripples & they crack & break the card stock.  If you run it through your Big Shot horizontally & it cracks & breaks the ripples then add a piece of vellum card stock over the top of your card stock (inside your embossing folder).  This helps keep the paper from cracking!

I have my September monthly class today with my N. Liberty group!!  Jenny is our hostess!  I can't wait to see everyone, share & stamp!!

I hope you have a SUPER Sunday!!

Happy Stamping!

How did I do the Thumping technique?

• Inked the tree stamp in my Soft Suede Ink
• Stamped off the first time onto my grid paper.

• I breathed onto my stamp to remoisten it.
• I then stamped it onto my Very Vanilla card stock. 

 

stamp set:  'Winter Woods'

card stock:  

• Soft Suede- 4x 5- score at 3 3/4" & run through the Corrugated Embossing folder; 5 1/2 x 7 1/2"- score at 4 1/4"

ink:  Soft Suede

Stampin' Write Markers:  Garden Green & Soft Suede

This morning I'm up early to stamp!  I'll be leaving later this morning to go with Deke to walk in the Delta Parade for his Board of Supervisors Campaign.  AND will then be burning the midnight oil again stamping!

Brody received a good report from Dr. Menezes today! He currently has no concerns and wants us back in a year for a follow-up visit.
He recommended absolutely no contact sports- we aren’t surprised & understand playing football or wrestling is not worth the risk. Brody took the news just fine; he’s excited to play baseball & for Brayden to teach him a thing or two about basketball.
How blessed we are!!!

 

 Manda & Brody!

I love the smiles!

I hope you have a SENSATIONAL Saturday!!

Happy Stamping!

This Merry Merlot & Copper 5/8" Reversible Ribbon is awesome!!!  It is very soft & easy to tie.  It is Merry Merlot on one side & it is Copper on the other side!!  So cool!!  The edge of it shows a little bit of Copper on both sides of the ribbon.

• Shake it up each time before you use it. 
• If you have any questions- comment here & I'll answer your questions!

It is crazy here....sick kids (Ainslee & Trey), kids have been here long days, Deke's mom went back to the ER & admitted back into the hospital again last night......it is just one of those weeks! Maybe today will be the day to break our unlucky week!  I sure hope so!

It was late when Deke got home from the hospital, so it was a short night last night here.  As we are up at 5 this morning to mark, sort & load a semi of hogs again.  I'll then go to town to Manda's, take the twins to school & then spend my day with the 3 little ones. 

Brody has his 6 month check up later today with Neuro in Iowa City, seeing Dr. Menezes.  He'll have a CT scan first & then see the dr.  Please say a prayer for him that all is good!  He had his yearly eye exam yesterday & that went great!  The eye dr said that things have healed great  & he has no concerns at all.  That was sure super news to hear!!!  Earlier this week he saw his pediatrician & she too thought that he was doing great!

Tonight when the kids go home I will be burning the midnight oil stamping!

Gotta run.....

I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!!

Happy Stamping!

Yesterday was a long day!  We started out early selling hogs & got done just in time to make it to town to get the boys.  It was nice to have the twins here too for awhile.  Since school has started I get to see them a bit in the morning & a bit after school.  We played outside for awhile yesterday afternoon.  And when the kids went home last night I worked on stamping stuff.

I'm up early this morning to walk & head to town to Manda's, as she has to leave early today.  Nathan also has an early meeting today, so he'll bring the kids here early & Deke is going to help me out & stay with them while I take the twins to school.  Tonight the twins have a football game that we'll go to.  And then I'll be burning the midnight oil again stamping!

I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!!

Happy Stamping!

A Shirt card- GO CUBS!!

 

Go Cubs Go!!

Our family are all big Cubs fans......even Ainslee can say 'Go Cubs'!  So for the twins (Brody & Drake's) birthday last week I made these cards for them! 

How did I do it?

• First I made a template by taking a 4 x 5 1/4" piece of card stock, folded it in half & cut along the edge to made the sleeves & then cut the scoop at the top to make the neck of the shirt. 
• Using a pencil, I lightly traced the shirt template onto a piece of Whisper White card stock that was 4 x 5 1/4".  
• Using my Paper Snips I fussy cut along the pencil lines.
• I then drew the stripes onto the shirt, using my Blueberry Bushel Stampin' Write Marker.
  
  
• I just used the straight edge of card stock.  
• NOTE:  Be CAREFUL to not hurry in doing this, as you can smear the lines!! The edge of your card stock gets wet from multiple lines being drawn & then the marker is not a permanent ink & it does take a few seconds to dry. 

Check out the Cubs emblem I made using our stamps!

I used the 'Lined Alphabet' stamp set for the BIG C & then colored it in with my Real Red Stampin' Write Marker.  I then individually stamped the U B & S!

This one I made into a fun fold easel card!  Check out how it looks when it is opened up!  

stamp sets:  'Lined Alphabet' & 'Pick A Pennant'
card stock:  Blueberry Bushel, Whisper White
ink:  Real Red
Stampin' Write Marker: Real Red & Blueberry Bushel
other:  Everyday Label Punch, 1 1/4" Circle Punch, 1 1/2" Circle Punch, Dimensionals

++++++++++

I stamped all day yesterday!!!  Working on the kits for everyone that ordered the 'Blended Seasons' Bundle from me.  I have them bagged & ready for everyone to get when they join me to stamp at my monthly September classes this month.  Plus I made LOTS of other cards yesterday too!  I have tons of happy mail being sent out today!  Our mail lady has a whole box full to pick up when she gets here. 

We are up early this morning at 4:30 to sell hogs.  Hopefully the semi is on time so that we can get them loaded & the chores done.  Deke has a board meeting this morning & I need to get to Manda's in time to get the boys.  

There is no school today, so I'll be spending my day with the 3 Seeley boys & the 2 smaller Wood kids!  Tonight when they go home I'll be stamping all night.

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

Check out this cool old truck!!  This is the card I made for Steve's birthday.  I used the truck from the NEW Holiday Catalog 'Farmhouse Christmas' set.
