HI!
WOW!  I survived my busy weekend.  I am totally exhausted.  I went 100 mph all week/ weekend- getting ready.  But I had a great time with many of you at my new catalog open houses.  I'm so glad you could join me!  Next Sunday I get to have my final new catalog open house with my group of gals in Hiawatha!!  WAHOO!!  I can't wait!

Today I wanted to share a quick post & found this cute picture that I took at convention last summer.  This is such a simple card, but yet so sweet!!  Plus it is in a garden of paper flowers that are adorable- so be sure to look at them too!

Lovin' my bird card!

HI!

Oh my.......this is one of the cards that I'll be sharing at my New Catalog Open Houses.  

A couple of days ago I shared this as a 'peek'.  Here is the whole card.

I just love this new designer paper.  Great colors!! 

 How could you not love anything that has green in it!

This card has a window sheet "window" on the front of the card.  

Cute huh!!  I can't wait for you to see it in person.

NOTE: I added the banner with words on it along the bottom of the card, 

using the set 'Loving Thoughts'.
This sure made the card pull together.

I'm glad that so many of you could join me yesterday for my Open Houses in Sigourney.

I enjoyed my day stamping, visiting & sharing my love of stamping with all of you.

 Today I'm soon off to Iowa City for my New Catalog Open House.

I need to get packed up & loaded up.

I have a big group of loyal customers joining me there.

Can't wait to share.

Have a great day!!

Here is a cute guy card..........

HI!

Today is my New Catalog Open Houses in Sigourney.  I will have one this morning & one this afternoon.  Then tomorrow I'll have one in Iowa City & next Sunday I'll have one in Hiawatha.  This way I can share with all of my customers!  They will all be making the same 6 card projects.


Here is a quick & cute guy card that I wanted to share with you today.  Almost a month ago Stampin' UP! had their employees make cards for Mother's Day & Father's Day.  This is my version of their Father's Day card.  I used different colors & ribbon, but used the same layout.  For those of you that are friends with Stampin' UP! on Face Book- you probably saw their card.

'Best Dad Ever'

My demonstrator friend, Selene Kempton, shared the template for these bookmarks. 
She got the template off of SUDOL, so I'm not sure who the original creator is.

I love it!  

And of course- you know me- I added the tag, ribbon & stamped words to it.  

And I did use a different stamp than she did.  

I do appreciate her sharing this great idea.  

Thanks Selene!  

So.........

Here are bookmarks that I've been making to give to those that attend my 

New Catalog Open Houses!  

Here is a peek at one of the cute cards we'll make be making too!

This is a new set called 'Besty's Blossoms'.

I know you can't tell from the photo, but there is a window sheet on the front of the card.

It is cute!!

And I'll have several other cute cards to share at my New Catalog Open Houses too!

Well I'm off to my Stamp Studio now!

I have LOTS more stamping to do!

Hope you have a great day!

ENJOY!

Happy Stamping!
