Last night Deke had another meeting.  And I had a late night working on getting things ready for tonights delivery.   Soon I'm headed out to pick up the boys & come back home with them.  Deke is gone all day again today to meetings.  Tonight when the boys leave I'm headed out for my monthly stamp delivery run.  I am hoping to stop & do a little bit of Christmas shopping for the boys & get some groceries too, before heading back home.  This month has been consumed with stamp classes & I haven't started my Christmas shopping, nor gotten up my tree or anything yet.  The countdown is on- so I have alot to catch up on so that I'm ready for Christmas in time.

I hope you have a very special Thursday!!
Happy Stamping!

Yesterday was a busy day!!  Trey had his 6 month check up & shots.  We also took Drake too to see Dr. Mary, as he has had a lingering cough.  Dr. Mary moved her office to Bloomfield- so it was quite the trip down & back- but she is an awesome Dr. & worth the trip!

Brayden's mom was sick & Nathan is out of town for work- so Papa got to go pick up Brayden after school yesterday & he got to spend the night with us last night.  We enjoyed him being here, as it was a nice surprise!!

I worked on stamp stuff after Brayden went to bed.  I should have stayed up later than I did- but I was exhausted & just decided I needed to quit & get some sleep.

We're off to pick up the boys here soon.  We'll then take Brayden to school & then come home.  Papa is home today to work on the farm all day (the only day this week that he is here & doesn't have any meetings)- so we are looking forward to him getting to eat lunch with us.  As soon as the boys leave tonight I'm headed out to the farm to help Deke.  This is my farmer night to help him sort & sell hogs.  I will be stamping the night way when I get home- as have lots to do!

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

Yeah- tonight I'm planning to be home.  I need to get my house back in order after having stamp classes here the past week (put tables/chairs, etc away) & get caught up on things that have piled (laundry & mail).  And then I hope to get to bed early for a change.

I hope you have a MARVELOUS Monday!!

My January 2015 Calendar page

Here is my January 2015 Calendar page!  Isn't this little snowman super cute!!  I tried really hard to make myself do a page something other than a snowman for January- but it is a tradition of mine that I just couldn't break!  With all of the snow here is Iowa, to me January is all about snowflakes & snowmen.  And the sentiment I used here perfectly sums it up too!

stamp sets:  'White Christmas', 'Project Life Holiday Cheer' & 'Cheerful Tags'
ink:  Black Memento, Marina Mist
markers:  Marina Mist & Pumpkin Pie
cs:  Whisper White, Marina Mist, Basic Black
supplies:  1" Circle Punch, 1 1/4" Scalloped Circle Punch, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, 2 Way Glue Pen, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, dimensionals

How did I make the little circle on New Years Day?  I used a pencil eraser tapped into my ink pad!  Isn't that cool!
 +++++++++
I had a fun night stamping with everyone last night that joined me to make their calendars.  Several of the ladies were making multiple ones to give away as Christmas gifts, so it was a late night of stamping again.  Then I worked a few more hours after they left cutting more card stock, getting ready for more calendar classes-so it was a short night.

I have more sessions of calendar classes today here at our home.  It will be another fun, yet long day & a late night of stamping!  I am looking forward to spending my day with everyone joining me today to stamp!  They will be here soon.  Woo Hoo!

I hope you have a SENSATIONAL Saturday!!
Happy Stamping!!
Hugs!

I love this cardinal!

Here is a card that everyone at my November monthly classes made.  I CASED the cardinal from my dear Stampin' Sister- Lyssa Zwolanek!  I LOVE the way she added the words in the background & the snow along the branches- using the White Chalk Marker.  I made it into a fun fold, added some different ribbon & some layers.  This card was forsure a favorite of many at my classes.  
Don't you love how it opens up! It is a door fold card.  And then I colored it with the blendabilites markers! 
As I've mentioned in some of my previous posts....I will find time sometime next week to get caught up on giving you the list of supplies!
++++++
I had a house full of stampers last night to make calendars.  I have a class again tonight, 2 tomorrow & an all day one again on Sunday!  I am still cutting card stock for them- it is alot of cutting!

I'm off to pick up the boys & will spend my day with them.  Deke has a meeting again today so he will be gone.  

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

Here is another New Occasions Sneak Peek!

Here is another Sneak Peek of some New Occasions Catalog products.  This was one of the Make & Takes my team made at my Catalog Kick Off last week.  This is also my swap for a monthly group that I'm in too!! (So if you are a demonstrator & in Carol's monthly swap with me- you will be getting this next week!)

Don't you just love the flower & the word framelit!  AND the flower has a punch that coordinates with the stamp set too!  Woo Hoo!
 I'll hopefully catch up the first part of new week on posting the supplies used here!

This is another New Occasions Catalog stamp set that I got as a pillow gift at Founders in September.  I used the pretty 'Gold Soiree' Specialty Designer Paper from the current big catalog- pg. 184.   It is springy looking isn't it!

++++++++
Tonight I have a calendar class here at our home!!  I've been burning the midnight oil & cutting lots of card stock for it!  I can't wait for everyone to join me!

I'm headed to town to pick up the boys!  Deke was up bright & early to chore & then he is working on a tiling project all day.  

Gotta run.......
I hope you have a very special Thursday!
Happy Stamping!

A CUTE snowman card.....

Here is a cute snowman card that I made as one of my make & takes for my Catalog Kick Off event I had last week with my team.  It is all made with punches.  Another demonstrator friend- Ronda Wade- shared this.  Years ago I had made a snowman card similar to this, so it was a nice refresher to do one again!
Isn't it just so cute!!

stamp set:  'And Many More'
ink:  Marina Mist
supplies:  1 3/4" Circle Punch, 1 1/4" Circle Punch, 1" Circle Punch, 1" Square Punch, Bird Builder Punch (the little circles for the buttons), Modern Label Punch, dimensionals, Basic Rhinestones, Paper Snips, Big Shot, Northern Flurry Embossing Folder

I made a pattern/template for the snowman silhouette by starting with the 1 3/4" Circle punch at the bottom & building upward using the 1 1/4" Circle Punch, then the 1" Circle Punch & the 1" Square Punch.  To make the hat brim I used my paper snips & cut out a little skinny rectangle for it.

+++++++++++
Trey hasn't been himself for the past week or so- not sleeping & fussy- so I took him to the dr yesterday morning.  He has ear infection so got some meds.  HOPE he is on the mend & feeling better soon.  Deke, Manda & all 4 boys went to the ballgame to watch my niece Ginny play basketball last night & I stayed home & burnt the midnight oil cutting card stock.

I'm off to Manda's now.  Nathan has an early meeting, so Brayden will be there too.  I'll take him to school, run several errands this morning while we are in town & then head out to our home.  Deke has a meeting this morning & one this afternoon too- so he'll be gone all day.  Tonight I'll be burning the midnight oil again cutting card stock & Deke will be working late on the farm.

I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!!
Happy Stamping!

Our little miracle!


Here is Brody today!!
AND
Here is Brody 3 years ago today!!
What an amazing dr he has- we love Dr. Menezes.........
 
Below is a post that Manda put on FB today.  It sure teared me up.  This little guy has been through so much!  And he is such a blessing in our lives!!

"It is hard to believe that speed bump #1 caught us 3 years ago, but it was just that, a bump. It slowed you down, periodically, as you haven't stopped moving, progressing, or smiling ever since. I'm a firm believer that everything is meant to happen for a reason- and everything that has happened to this boy has been because He knew he could handle it! You are our champ and have the biggest heart of any little boy I know!  Our fingers are still crossed & we pray that they find bone growth in May!"

This weeks- WEEKLY DEALS for Decemeber 9-15, 2014!

A New Occasions Catalog Sneak Peek!

I'm sharing some sneak peeks with you today!!  Here is a cute little card that I made for my Catalog Kick Off event that I hosted here last week.  I love this little worm!!  I think he is just adorable & can think of all kinds of projects to make using him.  I love these new word framelits too.  The New Occasions Catalog is full of tons of awesome products!  I'll have more to share with you as sneak peeks the rest of this month.  The New Occasions Catalog goes live to customers on January 6th!  That is the same day that Sale-a-bration starts too.  Woo Hoo!
I got these New Occasions products at Founders in September as one of my pillow gifts.  As a demonstrator we could start pre-ordering New Occasions Catalog products last Friday (12/5).  This is just a cool perk of being a demonstrator, as I love to get my hands on new things early so I get a chance to play with it. 

Sometime I'll find time to get caught up on being able to catch up on supplies used here on my blog.

This is just a crazy, crazy, crazy week!!  I have a ton of stamp classes & LOTS & LOTS of cutting yet to get done.  I go right from my daytime job to my night job with no break each day this week.  Next week I'm gonna crash!  Gotta run.....

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

Wow what a busy weekend of stamping!!!  And a busy week ahead of stamping!!!  My 2015 calendars are created!  And they turned out so cute!  I will post them in the next week or so.  I had my 1st class with customers making them was yesterday.  It was great!  We had a fun time!  I am looking forward to sharing at my other 4 calendar classes I have this week.  I am only a little under 1/3 of the way done cutting them all- so I still have alot of card stock to cut in the next 2 days!!  Thankfully I have an awesome husband & he helped me punch the holes for the rings in the tops of each of the pages I have cut so far.  I hope he will help me with the rest of them this week too.  Bless him! 

Deke is off to meetings this morning & I'm headed out to pick up the boys.  Tonight Brayden will be here after school- so I'm looking forward to seeing him.  If it is nice enough, we are gonna try to get our outside Christmas decorations all up before it gets dark out.  He has been wanting to help do this- so hope we can get it done.  Then after he leaves I'll be burning the midnight oil cutting card stock!  

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

'Mingle All the Way'

Here is a gift card holder that I made.  At my team Christmas Get-to-Gather my Aunt Kathy shared a cute mini candy bar holder similar to this.  The girls worked together & figured out the measurements if we changed it to make a gift card holder.  So I played with it the other night & this is what I came up with.
You just use one piece of paper from the Trim the Tree Paper Stack to make this!

stamp set:  'Mingle All The Way'
card stock:  Whisper White, Crumb Cake
designer paper stack:  Trim The Tree (4 1/2" x 6 1/2")
ink:  Crumb Cake
supplies:  2 3/8" Scalloped Circle Punch, 2" Circle Punch, dimensionals, Mini Clothes Pins, Basic Rhinestones
Here are the measurements for this gift card holder.  
Designer Paper=
  • 4 1/2 x 6 1/2"- score & fold at 1 3/4", 2", 2 1/4", 4 1/2", 4 3/4", 5" 
  • Score along the bottom edge at 1/2".
  • Cut out the bottom rectangles to the center part that says to fold up.
NOTE:  The designer paper is from the paper stack & measures 4 1/2" x 6 1/2"- so if you are using 12x12 & cutting it down- this is the size that you'll need.
 ++++++++

I've been burning the midnight oil creating & cutting for my 2015 4x4 desk calendar classes that I have this week.  Today if my first calendar class of the month.  I have a big group joining me & many of them are making multiple calendars to give as gifts for Christmas!  

My calendar months turned out super cute!!  I will get pictures of them taken sometime soon too & share with you in the next couple of weeks.

Ok......I've gotta run....still have some card stock to finish cutting, packing up & loading up to do before I can walk out the door.

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

A cute gift bag!

Here is a cute gift bag I made.  It is a case from one that I got at Founders from the SU! team.  I love the star punch along the top edge of the bag.  There is designer paper underneath.   And how could you go wrong with anything you make using the Scalloped Tag Topper punch!!  I love it!
stamp set:  'Mingle All The Way'
ink:  Garden Green
marker:  Stampin' Write Cherry Cobbler
card stock:  Crumb Cake
designer paper:  Under the Tree Specialty Paper
other:  Natural & Old Olive Two-Toned Trim; Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, Confetti Stars Punch, Gold Metallic Baker's Twine, Polka Dot Tag a Bag Gift Bags
+++++++

I worked last night on sorting stampin' orders & doing Stampin' Up! bookwork.  Today I'm going to be a stampin' fool & pray that I have good mojo!  I have my 1st 2015 Calendar class for the year tomorrow & I can't wait for everyone to see them.  They are awesome gifts!  And a true tradition with all of my customers.  I know that I make around 50 of them each year to give away as gifts to family & friends.  Once you give someone one they surely do expect to get another one the following year!  

I hope you have a SUPER Saturday!!
Happy Stamping!

My JOY square!

A few days ago I posted one of my holiday samplers.  So I took one of my 2 1/4 x 2 1/4" squares & put it on a card!  I think it turned out super cute!  What do you think?  I wanted to show you that you can make these squares & then use them in another way too.
 Here is my All Is Calm holiday sampler that I posted earlier.
 And here is my complete Joy card.
I will update this post sometime soon with the supplies that I used. 

++++++
It was a late night last night when we got home.  We went to Osky for our meeting, saw the Lighted Parade, ate supper out (which we rarely do) & made a Walmart run.  Plus Deke bought me an early Christmas present at Browns.  I got a new pair of Dansko shoes to help my plantarfasziitis.  My feet have been killing me since March & every time I think they are getting better they flair up again.  I spend many, many hours a week standing up on cement cutting card stock- so I pray that my new shoes help me have happy feet.  My dear friend- Dr. Rory- suggested that I get these. 

I'm headed in to get the boys & will spend my day with them.  Tonight I'll be burning the midnight oil working on my 2015 calendars for my upcoming classes I have coming up!  I pray that I have good mojo & my creative juices just flow.

Wishing you have a FABULOUS Friday!

My Holiday Sampler!

I LOVE this!!  

Here is another Holiday Sampler that I made.  The cute little snowman square was made by my downline Patti & the cardinals in the tree square was made by my downline Terri.  I made the others using the sets- White Christmas' & the 'Project Life December Wonder' sets.
Here is the deer square.  I'll get some of the other squares in the sampler above added here sometime soon.  I'm beat & headed to bed now......as I've not had much sleep the past few nights getting ready for my team meeting......
 
I had a fun time with my some in my Iowa Inkers team last night watching the live stream of the upcoming Occasions Catalog & Sale-a-bration Catalog Kick Off!  I'm glad that those of you that came could join me.  I had several make & takes for everyone to make using new Occasions Catalog products.  And we enjoyed Cheesy Potato Soup & maidrites!

I'm off to pick up the boys early this morning.  Then we'll head home to spend the day with them.  Deke is on the farm the whole day- so it will be nice to have him get to eat lunch with us.  I have a few more things to finish up on my farm bookwork, as we have an appointment with our CPA tonight.

I hope you have a very special Thursday!!
Happy Stamping!

Happy Winter!

Here is a cute framed "HAPPY WINTER" project that I shared as a make & take at my Christmas Get-to-Gather with my Iowa Inkers downline team a couple of weeks ago.  I thought it turned out cute!!  My inspiration for this came from the Stampin' Up! (R) website & was created by a Stampin' Up! (R) design team member.  Theirs was a different colors- but the same layout.

I will update this post sometime with the supplies that I used.
++++++

I've been burning the midnight oil & creating make & takes for my team meeting I'm hosting tonight at our home.  Stampin' Up! (R) is doing a live mainstream tonight called the New Occasions Catalog Kick Off!  So my team will be joining me for soup & maidrites.  I'll then have several make & takes for them to create & on some of them they get to use New Occasions Catalog products that I got as my pillow gifts when I was at Founders.  I am excited about getting together tonight & seeing everyone.  Normally we only get together on Saturdays- so this is totally something new & different.  

I'm off to get the boys soon & spend my day with them.  Deke is gone all day to meetings.

I hope you have  WONDERFUL Wednesday!  
Happy Stamping!

It is an All is Calm Framed Holiday Sampler!

I had a team meeting- my Christmas Get-to-Gather- at our home last weekend.  Together we made 2 1/4 x 2 1/4" squares.  Check them all out!  I combined all of mine & mounted them onto a 8 x8" mat & then layered with an 8 1/4 x 8 1/4" mat & mounted them onto a 12 x 12" sheet of card stock!  Isn't it just beautiful!!!  I just love it!!  

Believe me that making these squares is addicting.  After my team left I spend the night making more squares for another Christmas Sampler that I did.....and I'll post a picture of it later this week, so be sure to stop by back to check them all out!

Tonight I'll be a farmer helping Deke on the farm.  I'll then be burning the midnight oil working on projects for my team!  I have many of them joining me on Wednesday night this week & we'll be watching the New Occasions Catalog Kick- Off - which is a live event from Stampin' Up!  

I hope you have a MARVELOUS Monday!!!

card stock:  Real Red, Old Olive, Whisper White
ink:  Old Olive & Real Red
other supplies:  Big Shot, Decorative Dots Embossing Folder, Wonderous Wreath framelits, dimensionals, glue dots

+++++++
We had a really busy day yesterday with family- but had a great time!!  It was a challenge to get all of the boys to look & smile at the same time for pictures- so we'll see what they turn out like.  But we took them at a feed store & I can't wait to see them!  There was still a little snow & then old buildings in the background.  I think they will be cool!!  

Our trip to Des Moines to see Disney was awesome too.  The boys were all good & loved the show!!  It was a variety of different Disney things- Cars, Fairies, Toy Story, Barbie & Ken, Mickey & Minney, etc....  I thought it was kinda of hard to keep track of things & I prefer the single story line theme- but it was still great!  Neat costumes, singing, lights, etc. 

I was up early this morning to start my chicken baking & getting things ready for our Thanksgiving Dinner.  We are off to my sisters here soon & will spend our day there with my side of the family having a late Thanksgiving Dinner together.

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