Woo Hoo! I LOVE the new FLIP THINLITS!!

Good morning!
This stamp set if a favorite of mine.....and it fits me to a "T"!
I am a huge hot (coffee, tea or hot chocolate) drinker.
When I saw this set I knew that I would get tons of use out of it!

Here is one of the cards I created for my August workshops!
Have you RSVP'd yet to come stamp with me this month?
I have some fun new folds & techniques to share.
PLUS we'll be using LOTS of new products.
You aren't going to want to miss out on stamping with me this month.

The above card is created with the awesome set- 'Perfect Blend' & the This & That Designer Paper.
PLUS I used one of the new FLIP Thinlits here too!!
These new FLIP Thinlits are just SO COOL!
I know I'm going to be using them alot!
And of course......those of you that know me know that I don't follow directions very well, so I cut it alittle differently & turned this card on its side to make it be different than it's original intent.
I think it is pretty cool!
What do you think?
Do you notice the strips?
These were created with the Simply Scored Tool.
 I will update the supply list later since I don't have time to do it this morning.
You pull down the front......
AND then flip up the top.....
Isn't this just the coolest!!!

I'm off now to finish getting things ready for my workshop I have today!
We have some new ladies joining us & some oldies coming back that haven't stamped with us for awhile too.
We are going to have a great time!
And I can't wait to see everyone & share 6 awesome cards with each of them!

I hope you have a SUPER Sunday!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

A Convention Make & Take

Good morning!
I finally got my Make & Takes from convention made this week.
Here is my favorite one.
I personally think it needs a layer or two...but it is an awesome layout with color, products & stamp set choices.
 'Gorgeous Grunge' & 'Hello, Lovely
cs:  Whisper White, Coastal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe, Silver Glimmer Paper
ink:  Bermuda Bay, Crisp Cantaloupe, Old Olive, Summer Starfruit, Calypso Coral
supplies:  Island Indigo Bakers Twine, Very Vintage Designer Button, Epic Day This & That Washi Tape, Glue dots, dimensionals, Paper Snips, 1 3/4" Circle punch

I enjoyed another day with Brayden yesterday!
 We had a great week together......and I didn't think he was going to go home yet last night.
He is such a special little man & melts G'ma's heart!
I can't believe that he will be starting kindergarten in a few weeks.
Today I am home alone.
(I think!)
I will be spending my day/night stamping.....and praying that I have good Mojo!
I have a workshop tomorrow & only have one card created so far & nothing cut!
YIKES......
I have my ideas & stamp sets figured out, so hoping my Mojo is there & things just click.
I am EXCITED about Lana's party & I am looking forward to sharing some cute cards with her & her friends that will be joining us to spend the afternoon stamping tomorrow.

I hope you have a SENSATIONAL Saturday doing whatever you have planned for the day!
Happy Stamping!
HUGS!

A 'Truly Grateful' fall card......

Good morning!
Here is a card that shows some new things in the Holiday Catalog. 
I gave you a sneak peek of it before I left for convention & then I forgot to share it with you.

dp:  Sweater Weather
ink:  Crushed Curry, Chocolate Chip
marker:  Chocolate Chip

WOW!
What a busy week!
We had a fun day on the farm with just Brayden yesterday.
He is quite the little man.
He loves the farm & had so much fun with the baby piggies & helping us.
 
Last night we (Deke, Brayden & I) made a trip to Menards to get the trim needed to finish up in my laundry room, bathroom & kitchen.
The floor is down & looks nice.
I really like it.
It is the new vinyl plank.
BUT-
The rest of the repair work still needs to be done & as of yesterday we are having someone new finish it.

I was very unhappy with & am now done with the other guys that were suppose to be doing it.
So- whenever it rains our new guy will have time to come do it.
So whenever that is it is.
I am just wanting it done & done so that it looks nice.

Today I'm hoping to get to stamp some.
I have a workshop on Sunday & have to get my 6 cards for it created & cut.
I am praying that I have good mojo today!

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