Boo to you!

Oh my gosh......this little guy is too cute!!  He just makes me smile when I look at him!   

I colored him with my Stampin' Blends.  Then I used my Paper Snips & fussy cut him out!  And added him to this little box, using some dimensionals.
Check out the gold clip on the top of this box.  It is actually a retired clip, but it is on the clearance rack!!  It is available while supplies only.  20 of the come in the pkg for only $2.40!!  WOW!!  What a bargin!

This box is one of the many Halloween Treat projects everyone will be making with me at my upcoming Halloween Treats Classes- except I didn't add the little monster to the box.  But is you are coming to this class & you want to add him to your box- you can!!  Be sure you ask me about it. 

NOTE:  When making this box & you are using a patterned DSP with images or words that need to go in a certain direction- be sure you have your DSP going in the right direction when you are doing the cutting & scoring.  

How did I make the box?  Here are the measurements & instructions!!  Hope this helps you in making this box.   If you have any questions about it- don't hesitate to contact me. 
  • 6x6 DSP- score at 1 1/2", 2 3/4", 4 1/4" & 5 1/2"
  • Turn & score at 1" & 5"
  • Cut out the bottom tiny rectangle.
  • Cut each bottom score up to line.
  • Save the top left square & cut off the remaining part along the top.
  • I used a corner rounder from the Detailed Trio Punch to round the corners on the top flap.  
  • Apply Tear & Tape along the outside thin edge & assemble.  

stamp set:  'Boo To You' & 'The Raven' (words)
card stock:  Whisper White, Crumb Cake

Yesterday was a busy day with the kids. It is fun to have them here.....we played outside alot!!  They made Pumpkin Wooden decor projects, we watched the New Aladdin Movie, read books, played on ipads, etc.  For lunch I went to plan B.  I was making spagetti & then didn't have any sauce.  So we ended up having Quesadilla's.  They were really good & the boys loved them!  

When the kids went home last night I worked outside on painting a project I'm working on.  I then placed orders & worked on stamping stuff the rest of the night.

This morning I'm up early to get some stamping stuff done & head to Manda's.  I'll spend my day with Trey & Ainslee.  And the other boys will all ride the bus here after school.  Tonight I'll be stamping again! 

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

The Raven

This raven is actually very cool!!  There is just tons of detail in this entire 'The Raven' stamp set.  

I really like the branch  & the words /font- that are in this stamp set too. 
Look at this fun card......I used alot of different products here.  I think it turned out pretty neat!

I stamped the Raven onto Crumb Cake card stock, using Memento ink.  I then fussy cut him out using my Paper Snips.   

How did I flag the ends of the banner that the words Beware are stamped onto?  I used my Tailored Tag Punch!  I just slid my strip into the top point of the punch & it works great!!

Look at the circle.....
  1. I used Watercolor paper.
  2. Cut a circle out of it.
  3. Wet it with water in my Stampin' Spritzer.
  4. Inked my 'Birch' background stamp with my Crumb Cake ink.
  5. Then stamped it onto my wet Watercolor paper.  
  6. I let it dry a little & then stamped the tree branch on it, using my Soft Suede ink.

Yesterday was a great day of stamping with everyone that joined me for my monthly N. Liberty stamp class.  Dena had some yummy treats & we all enjoyed the afternoon visiting & creating!!  Thanks to Dena, Brooke, Teri & Jenny for helping me to set up & then clean up afterwards too. 

As I hurried home after our class, so we could go to Elizabeth Conrad's visitation.  It was good to see her family & chat with some other friends of ours there.   The visitation was over at 7 & we walked into the church at 6:58- just in time.  There was still quite a line & it was about 7:40 when we walked out the door.  We made a quick stop at Dollar General & then picked up a Casey's Pizza for our supper.  Deke watched the baseball game for a bit & we called it a night.... we were both beat.

We are up early this morning & on the go.  Deke is off to chore & head to the courthouse for his weekly board meeting.  I have to get my car unloaded from yesterday's class.  And then I need to get my stampin' stuff picked up & everything put away before the kids get here.  It is Teacher's In Service Day today- so there is no school & the kids will all be here.  I hope the weather is nice & we can play outside.  I also have a couple Halloween projects for them to make too!  Tonight Deke has a meeting in Fairfield & I'll be cutting card stock, getting ready for my 5 stamp classes I have coming up this week. 

I hope you have a MARVELOUS Monday!!
Happy Stamping!

OH MY GOSH.......the scene that this card portrays is what I see when I look out my family room window.....we have bunnies everywhere!  They are so cute to watch & so pretty when you see them hoping around in the snow.  

Check out this Feels Like Frost DSP!  It is gorgeous!!  Each & every sheet is just stunning!  And then the back side of each sheet has beautiful Silver Foil/White images on it.  Each sheet of them are stunning too!

Nature's Beauty- deer

Don't miss out on this great stamp set called- 'Natures Beauty'!  It is on page 63 in the Holiday Catalog!  Plus for every 'Natures Beauty' stamp set that is purchased, Stampin' Up! will be donating $3.00 of each sales to go towards Mental Health Organizations. 

Check out this monochromatic card.  I think it turned our really cool!

I love this deer!  He is so real looking & there is so much detail in the drawing of it.  

I have this deer stamped, so that he is hiding behind the trees!
I used the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint, along with the Ice Stampin' Glitter to make the snow!

I added winter words on this card, but you could easily change the words & it would be used to be a great guy card, birthday, sympathy, etc.  

So what do you think!  I hope you like it as well as I do.

At my September classes I offered a free card kit to all of my customers that purchased this 'Natures Beauty' stamp set.  So this is one of the cards in the kit I created, that all of them will be picking up when they come to stamp with me this month at my October classes.

stamp set:  'Natures Beauty' & "Free Skate" (for the words & snowflakes)
card stock:
  • Crumb Cake- 5 1/2 x 5 1/2"- score at 4 1/4"- for card base; 4 3/4 x 3"; 2" strip
  • Whisper White- 4 x 5 1/4"- for inside of the card; 2 3/4 x 1"- fussy cut a wavy edge for the snow; 2 3/4 x 4"
designer paper:  Pressed Petals (woodgrain)
ink:  Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Balmy Blue
other:  Big Shot, Magnetic Platform, Layering Ovals Die, White Twine, Snowfall Accents Puff Paint, Ice Stampin' Glitter, Heat Tool, Aqua Painter, Sponge Brayer, Standard Platform, Woodland Embossing Folder, Dimensionals, Glue Dots

How did I do it?
 1.  Stamp the deer directly onto the inside lid of the Woodland Embossing folder, using Early Espresso ink & run it through your Big Shot to Emboss it. 

2.   Using my Aqua painter I blended the "already inked deer image" to make him all brown.  Don't use too much water.  And you don't need to add more ink- as the ink on him will smear & you can blend it together to make him all brown. 
3.  Squishing ink into the lid of my Crumb Cake ink pad, to pick up the ink with your Aqua Painter & lightly add ink this to the lines on the birch trees- so that they stand out & show more.  NOTE:  Don't use too much water or ink. Less is better than too much!
4.  Squishing ink into the lid of my Balmy Blue ink pad, pick up the ink with your Aqua Painter & lightly add ink to the sky area- in between the trees. NOTE:  Again- don't use too much water or ink, as less is better than too much.  You can always add a little more, but you can't remove it if you get too much!
5.  Using my paper snips, I fussy cut along the top edge of a 2 3/4 x 1" piece to make it curved for the snow.  I then added the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint & the Stampin' Glitter- heat set it with my Heat Tool & had my fluffy snow on my card!  And it is ready to assemble, to complete my card.
+++++++++
Yesterday was a busy day with the kids.  We picked up Masen after school, I met Manda with Trey- so that the Seeley family could go get their flue shots.  When the Wood kids went home I made supper to take up to Deke's parents.  And then I stamped all night!  

Today Deke is home to work on the farm all day.  I'll spend my day with Masen & Ainslee.  I'll pick up the 3 Seeley boys after school & take them to their home & wait until Manda & Steve get home.  After the Wood kids go home, I'll spend my night again stamping!!! 

Gotta run.....
I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!!
Happy Stamping!

This morning Deke is up & home to work on the farm all day.  He hopes to get the nursery all powerwashed.  I'm up & off to Manda's.  I'll take the twins to school & then spend my day with Trey & Ainslee.  I will run to town at 3:10 to pick up Masen from school.  Tonight I'll be stamping!

Yesterday was a HOT & humid day.......the kids & I were were outside for awhile in the morning & awhile in the afternoon.  Everyone was gone about 30 minutes earlier than normal & Deke was powerwashing the grower, so I went to buy groceries.  I picked up a HyVee pizza to bake for our supper & spent the rest of the night putting away groceries!

This morning Deke is up early to chore & head to the courthouse.  I'm up early to sort some stamp boxes that came yesterday & then head to Manda's.  I'll take the 3 boys to school & then spend my day with the Masen & Ainslee.  The twins are suppose to have their last football game tonight.  But it sure sounds like we are gonna get alot of rain.....so we'll see if that ends up happening or not.  If they play football we'll go watch them.  We are then meeting some of our old friends (from Des Moines) that we haven't seen for several years.  They are gonna be down this way tonight & so we'll eat supper with them & catch up .  

I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!!

I LOVE this cute monster & I love this fun Halloween Treat project!

This box is one of the many projects everyone will be making with me at my upcoming Halloween Treats classes this month!

I used one of our Acetate boxes, made an inside liner for it & then decorated the outside of the box.  

I thought that this box would be perfect for many different types of treats......including candy, cash, gift card, pencils, etc.......


And this box would just have to be for Halloween.  You could just change the colors & the stamp set & it could be used for many different occasions! 
You can see the glare from the acetate box in this photo.  But isn't this cool!  I love the library books with this monster.

Brayden's football game got cancelled due to the rain yesterday- so literally I stamped & did stamping bookwork all day/night.  I got caught up on alot- but still have many boxes left to get done in the next couple of nights.  Deke worked outside all day, moving pigs & powerwashing.  We are getting ready for new baby piggies that are coming in the next couple of weeks.
 
This morning we are both up early.  Deke is off to chore & head to the courthouse for his weekly board meeting.  I'm up early to get some stamp things put away- that are all laid out in my family room (so that the room is ready for kids).  I'm then headed to Manda's, will take the boys to school & spend my day with Masen & Ainslee.  The other boys will ride the bus out after school. 

Tonight I'll be stamping!

Today Brayden is suppose to have a football game.  I was planning to go to it, as today is the first Sunday I've had off the past 3 weeks.  I assume with the rain- it will get rescheduled.  So guess we will see.  I have lots of stamping for my October monthly classes & Annual Holiday Extravaganza to get created......so I will be a stamping fool!  

I hope you have a SPECIAL Sunday!!

A Snow Front - wooden tag!

I found some cute wooden tags at our local Dollar General Store & stamped on them!!  Stamping on wood is something I don't think I had ever done before. 

It was easy!! 

NOTE:  I did learn that when you press the stamp down onto the wood- you do want to hold it down with pressure for a few seconds- so that that ink will absorb into the wood. 

This is a fun tag that I made for my nephew & his fiances' couples bridal shower bag gift. 

I used the 'Snow Front' stamp set, along with the 'Make a Difference' alphabet stamp set.    This 'Make a Difference' stamp set has the alphabet & the numbers both it in! 
This 'Snow Front' stamp set is just totally awesome!!  It is a stamp set with endless possibilities!  It is definitely a stamp set that has all seasons in it. 
stamp sets:  'Snow Front' & 'Make A Difference'
card stock:  NONE
inks:  Early Espresso, Garden Green
This is what it looks like hanging on their gift bag.  I told them that they could use it as a Christmas ornament on their tree!
+++++++++
Yesterday was a busy day with the kids.  Trey, Ainslee & I ran to Osky to deposit a hog check.  We played for awhile outside when we got home.  The 4 other boys rode the bus here.  We played outside a bit- it was just a gorgeous day!  I took supper up to Deke'e parents & then worked on stamping stuff all night.  

Today I'll spend my day with Masen & Ainslee.  Tonight we were suppose to go racing in Memphis, but the rescheduled them due to the predicted rain.  So I hope I get lots of stamping done tonight & tomorrow for my upcoming October classes. 

I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!!
Happy Stamping!
