A Fall 'Lovely As A Tree' card!

Good morning!

Here is another one of the cards that everyone joining me at my September 

workshops will be making.

I LOVE the set- 'Lovely As A Tree'!

It is an oldie but a goodie!

I will update this with the supply list sometime soon.

Don't you just love this card!

And check out the new Expression Thinlit!

Isn't it awesome!!

I still have some card stock to cut & things to pack up for my workshop today!

So keeping this short & off to get everything finished up so I can out the door soon.

I'm excited to be sharing my love of stamping with Michele & Karen & many of their friends today!

They have alot of ladies joining us!

I can't wait to stamp with all of them!

I spent the whole day stamping yesterday- 16 hours to be exact!

I got alot done.....my Founders swap is created & partially cut.

(I will post it later this week after our swap!)

Plus- I got my October birthday cards done & cards made to send out to those that ordered on line for Clearance Rack items.

AND I made 5 different cards all using the same set- 'Best of Autumn'.

I'll post these 5 cards on my blog this week!

Gotta run.......

I hope you have a SUPER Sunday!!

Happy Stamping!

Good morning!

Here is a simple & quick card that I created with some scraps that were laying 

on the counter in my stamp studio.

I just stamped the maple leaf into the Crumb Cake ink & then using a marker 

traced some of the veins.

'Magnificent Maple' & 'Truly Grateful'

cs:  Crumb Cake, Chocolate Chip, Cajun Craze, Naturals Ivory

dp:  Sweater Weather

ink:  Crumb Cake & Chocolate Chip

marker:  Chocolate Chip

supplies:  Scissor Snips, Big Shot, Ovals Framelits

The twins & I had a fun day yesterday.
We ran errands in the morning & then spent 1 hour playing in the park.

They had a blast!

Then late yesterday afternoon Nathan & Brayden were here & I cut Nathan's hair 

before they went to the football game.

I then spent the rest of my night in my studio creating & cutting part of my Founder's swap.

I totally didn't end up creating anything I had in mind originally for this swap.

But I really like what I ended up creating.

It is definitely a Susie card.

I ended up making a Christmas card & using the Holiday Catalog set- 'Santa's List'.

I will post it later next week while I'm at Founders.

So for today I plan on spending my whole day/night in my studio cutting card stock & 

getting ready for my workshop.

As far as I know I am home alone all day!

I hope you have a SENSATIONAL Saturday!

Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

Here is a Halloween Treats class peak!

Good morning!

Here is a peak at one of the cards that I'll be doing at my upcoming 

Halloween Treats class on 09/29/13! 

Are you coming to stamp with me this afternoon?

This card is created with the the set-

'Best of Halloween'- #134381= $14.95.

 I also used the new Circle Thinlit card die.

#133480= $32.95.

Cool huh!

This is a spinner card!

I think it is so cute!

The twins & I went with Deke yesterday to check out all of the farm goodies 

for Duwa's upcoming sale.

I am not sure who liked all of things more- Papa or the twins?

I guess- "boys & their toys" is a good quote- no matter how old they are.

Duwa's is a big farm sale with everything & anything you can imagine from gates, to trailers, tractors, lawn mowers, feeders, combines, bins, etc....

I wish I had taken my camera to get pictures of how excited the twins were to see everything.

We walked down alot of the rows looking at stuff that Deke is hoping to bid on at the sale later today.

We then treated ourselves to lunch at Rose's & got to see my Aunt Virginia & nephew Jake.

We had a really nice time at Deke's Pathfinders Board picnic last night.

I got to meet lots of people that I only knew of by their name......

so it is now nice to have a face to go with that name!

And I also got to see some people that I haven't seen for a long time.

The supper was very yummy.....smoked pork.

And the cabin it was at was really a beautiful place.

 

We have a crazy new several days here.

I have no clue how everything is going to get done.

But somehow it will all work out.

I have to think positive.

Deke is gone again this morning to a meeting.

And then he is going to Duwa's farm equipment sale, hoping to get 

some good buys for some things he needs for the pigs.

I hope you have a FANTASTIC Friday!!

Happy Stamping!
Hugs!
