WOO! HOO!

World Cardmaking Day is October 4! 

What a wonderful reason to gather, stamp, and create handmade and heartfelt cards with your friends! 

In honor of this event, I'll be spending my day making cards.

Do you have any fun plans for World Cardmaking Day 2014?

I'd love to hear what you'll be doing!

 

 Stampin' Up! will be offering a "special" to celebrate this special day.

It will run from October 1, 2014 through October 6, 2014.

So stay tuned for more information on the 1st about this!

A spooky GHOST!

Here is another Halloween card from my Halloween Treats class that
I had this past weekend.
This is a fun swiper card!
It is so much fun to make.
 Check out my cute vellum ghost!
And see how the little tab pops up from the inside when it is pulled open.
Pretty cool!
This is what it looks like shut.
Then when you pull on the card sides it pops up the little word insert.

'Project Life Holiday Cheer'
cs:  Basic Black, Crushed Curry, Whisper White, Tangerine Tango, Vellum
dp:  Motley Monsters
ink:  Black Stazon
marker:  Tangerine Tango
supplies:  Big Shot, Fun Fall Framelits, 2 1/2" Circle Punch, Sticky Strip

NOTE:  I will get a photo of how to attach the pop up inside piece sometime soon & update this post.
 I had several people ask for the measurements for this card- so here they are.
Measurements:
*Basic Black- 6 3/4 x 4 1/4
Score at 5 & 5 3/4
Mark down from the top at 1 3/4" so that you have the spot to attach your pop up word images.
 *Vellum- 2" strip to cut out ghost framelit
*Whisper White- 2 1/4 x 3; 5 x 1
*Crushed Curry- 2 3/4" Strip to punch out moon
*Tangerine Tango- 5 x 1/4
*Stripped Designer Paper- 4 x 3/4"

 +++++++++
Yesterday was another great day of stamping with those that joined me 
for my Halloween Treats class.
We made 14 projects from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.
And then some of them stayed from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. & made the
 Frightful WreathSimply Sent kit too with me.

I'm off to Manda's house for the morning to watch the boys there.
Tonight I'll be picking up & putting away tables/chairs & things from yesterdays class.
It was late last night & I was tired- so I got alittle done- but not much.

I have a full schedule of stampin' events in October to get busy on this week.
So will hopefully have time yet tonight too to start working on that.

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

A SPOOKY Halloween card!

Hello!
Today I'm sharing a spooky Halloween card that everyone 
joining me at my Halloween Treats class will be making.

The inspiration for this haunted house came from my dear friend-
LeeAnn's Greff's downline Halloween sampler that she gave to me.
Her downline, Lorrie made a block similar to this one & I just loved it!

 I will update this post sometime soon with a supply list.
+++++++

WOW!!!
What a great Halloween Treats class I had yesterday!
We all had a wonderful time stamping together.
I am blessed to have so many that helped to make the day a special one.
Judy & Aunt Kathy helped me do some punching & Big Shot cutting.
And Leslie was a God sent bringing yummy treats for us!
Plus- Judy, Teri, Jenny, Dena, Patty & Mary
were awesome to help clean up, pack up & load up afterwards.
Thanks to each of you for your help!

Today I'm having another Halloween Treats class here at our home.
I have lots to do before everyone gets here.
I'm looking forward to spending my afternoon stamping with everyone attending.
I can't wait for you to see all of the Halloween goodies you'll be making!

I'm on a mission.....gotta run.
I hope you have a SUPER Sunday!!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

A nice article to read......

Click here
Then be sure to turn to pg. 2.

This is an article about our son (Nathan) who went to visit a race fan in rehab.
Wow- what a proud mom I am!

'Tee-Hee-Hee'!

Hello!
Woo Hoo- today is my first Halloween Treats class.
I can't wait for everyone joining me to come see the projects 
& spend the afternoon stamping with me.

This is one of the fun cards everyone will be making.
It is a slider card.
You pull on the tag & it opens up.
 I think that it turned out super cute!
 Check it out when it is opened up here!

I will update this post with a supply last sometime soon.

"Boo" to you!

Hello!
Here is a cute little treat box that everyone attending 
my Halloween Treats class will be making.
This little ghost is so cute!
 I will update this post after my class on Sunday with the supply list.
Between now & then I have lots to get done tonight when the boys go home.

After school yesterday the boys helped me pick some ears of corn to 
make bundles with & hang on our fence in our yard.
It was so cute watching the 3 of them in the field & helping to pull back the shucks.
Brody was yelling that it was 'awesome' as he was running down the hill to the corn field.
Now I just hope that our dog Nestle doesn't eat the corn we have hanging up-
as last year she did.

Deke & the kids all went to the Volleyball game last night to watch my niece Ginny play.
I stayed home & stamped!

Gotta run to pick up the boys.
I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!!
Happy Stamping!
hugs!

It was another busy day here yesterday.
Brayden's game was fun!
We were both happy to see each other after a week!
We took the twins with us to the game.
They had fun playing- but didn't watch much of Brayden playing football.
AND
I've been a busy bee stamping!
I still have a lot to do.
I'm sure excited about all of my Halloween Projects though.

Today we get 750 baby piggies delivered to our farm this morning.
The twins are so excited to get to go out & help us!
My mom is coming to our home to stay with Trey.
And Brayden will get to go out to see the baby piggies 
& help Papa chore as soon as he gets home from school today.

Think that my family is going to a volleyball game tonight to watch 
our niece Ginny play.
I'm staying home & stamping!!

I'm headed to Manda's to get the boys this morning 
& then hurrying back home to go out to the farm.

I hope you have a very special THURSDAY!!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

I so enjoyed getting to see 3 of our boys yesterday!
I think they missed Grandma as much as she missed them.
I'm sad that we don't get to see Brayden until tomorrow.
But then will get to see him the rest of the week! 
He is excited about getting to help me decorate some things!

I got home late yesterday afternoon.
Susie's Hair Hut was open to give Deke a much needed hair cut.
Then we headed off to Osky to get our hog check deposited, ate a quick supper
at Wendy's & got some groceries- as our cupboards were bare.

I'm headed to Manda's here soon.
I will be at their home at least part of the day- 
as the furnace guy isn't done yet.
Tonight I'm a farmer helping Deke- as we sell hogs!

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

Fall Leaves.....

Good morning-
I am "Home Sweet Home"!
I spent a long day in airports yesterday.
We had problems landing in Denver due to wind
& made 3 attempts to land before we finally did.
I literally made it to my next gate just in time-
as they were already boarding the plane.
I am so thankful that I did not miss it.
And I walked in the door about 9:15 last night.
Now to find time to get everything unpacked & put away.

Here is a fun card I made using fall leaves.
Check out how I layered the punched out leaves.

' Fall Fest', 'Gorgeous Grunge', 'Fabulous Four'
cs:  Hello Honey, Tangelo Twist, Mossy Meadow, Baked Brown Sugar
ink:  Hello Honey, Tangelo Twist, Mossy Meadow & Baked Brown Sugar
supplies:  Baked Brown Sugar Twine, 1" Square Punch, Artisan Punch, dimensionals
+++++++

I literally hit the ground running last night.
I have a very busy week ahead of us with new baby piggies
& my Halloween Treats classes.
Plus other family things added in there too.
 I am off to Manda's now & will be keeping the boys at their home all day today.
I can't wait to see them!
I missed my family tons while I was gone.
But I'm so blessed to have spent an amazing few days with some very dear friends in Utah too!
And I'm so thankful for the opportunity to have gotten to do so.

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

Season's Greeting with 'Festival of Trees'

Hello!
Here is a quick post from Utah.
I'll be heading out this morning & arriving at home late tonight.
We've had a fun & busy week.
I feel blessed that I earned Founders again this year.
I'm so thankful for all that Stampin' Up! has brought to my life.
I have missed my family though & sure am ready to see them all.

I love the new photopolymer set- 'Festival of Trees' & the coordinating Tree Punch.
So here is another card I made using them.
 I will update this post sometime soon.

I pray that we all have a safe trip home & my flights are all on schedule 
so that all goes well!

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