'Hello, Doily'

Good morning!

Today I'm sharing a beautiful card that my very talented downline Judy Hopping made.  

She used the set 'Hello, Doily', stamped it in vesamark & embossed it with White Embossing powder.  She then took a sponge inked with Rich Razzleberry ink & rubbed it over the white embossed image.  Just gorgeous isn't it!!

Isn't the Spirelli String art in the middle around the Scallop Circle punch just beautiful!

We had a late night last night sorting, loading & selling hogs in the darn heat!  It is another busy day here with the boys.  AND I still lots of cutting of card stock to do before my big stamp class here tomorrow night!!!  I will be burning the midnight oil!  But have some cool cards to share with everyone that is coming to stamp with me!!  I can't wait for them to see them. 

Gotta run.....

Have a great day!!

'Perfectly Preserved'- LOVE this jar!

Good morning!!

 

I stamped almost all day yesterday!!  I now have all of my cards created for my 2 stamp classes  that I have this week.  Yipee!!  They are all cute!!  I can't wait to share.  But first have to get everything cut.  Crystal came & helped me for a couple of hours in the afternoon.  She got some things cut with the Big Shot.  That was so sweet of her!  I enjoyed her company too, as we never get to see much of each other or visit any more since I don't work with her now.  

Brayden was in the shop with his dad all day, so he was back & forth from there to the house & ate lunch with us.  He talked me into making a batch of Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies for him to help with & take them to the shop for the guys too.  They were yummy!

I have been playing with this 'Perfectly Preserved' stamp set some more.  I am doing a cute card (with a fun fold) with it at my classes this week- so will show you that card in the next week or so.  I got a swap with a doily under the jar & a tag hanging from the lid that I thought was cute- so recreated her card & came up with this card.

Scallop Oval punch Doily under it.  

I am finally feeling a little better.  I still have a little cough & sore throat.  I hope the boys & I are all on the uphill side to being better.  I don't have time to be sick!

Today the twins will be here.  (Brayden has pre-school.)  And tonight we sell hogs.  I am hoping to get to cut some card stock if I can get the boys to nap at the same time.  

Wish me luck!!

Have a great day!

Happy Stamping!
ENJOY!

A 'Wonderfall' birthday card.....

Good morning!  

I needed a quick guy birthday card so this is what I came up with this morning.  I so LOVE the new Woodgrain embossing folder with the new Core'dinations card stock.  I did a little sanding on it after I ran it through the Big Shot.  And look at it- just beautiful!  Notice the new tulle too!  How fun...it makes beautiful bows!!  

Fall is in my favorite time of the year.  

I love the cooler temps, the crisp air & the beautiful colors that Mother Nature brings to us!!

I have 2 workshops this week & haven't gotten much done for them yet.

ADDITIONAL NOTES about this project-
  This little pouch was one I took a picture of at Founders last fall.
For the life of me I can't remember who the creator of it is to give them credit.
It sure is cute though!!
The stamp set is still current, but the designer paper is retired.
