Lots of Thoughts Card

I love this card! We made this at the Mimi Meeting (SWAS). I don't know who designed it. The little purse is made by using punches. The bottom of the purse is made with the square punch. The top flap of the purse is made with a circle punch, and you just cut the circle in half. Then tape a ribbon on the back for the purse handle. Then punch through the whole thing with a cropadile and set the brad. The brad is a square rhinestone from page 189 of the catty. The paper is the Ginger Blossom designer paper.
Stamp Set: Lots of Thoughts (from the Sell-A-Bration Catty - now retired).

Sticky Note Holder / Key Chain

We made this at Jeri's Make and Take. It holds a pad of little sticky notes. Sorry I don't have the instructions or name of the retired Stamp Sets! All I know is we used Black Craft Ink on the letter and embossed it with Iridescent Ice EP. We used the Cropadile to punch a hole through the entire thing and put a jump ring on it. Then we tied the ribbons on. This little thing can be used as a key ring, or it can be attached to your purse (or you can just throw it in your purse).

You Crack Me Up Card

This card was made at Jeri's Make and Take.

Stamp Set: A Good Egg (page 30 of Spring/Summer 2008 Catty).

The egg was embossed with Iredescent Ice Embossing Powder.

The blue paper was run through the Crimper.

Blooming With Love Card

This was made at Jeri's Make and Take.

We used the Watercolor Wonder Crayons to color in the

images (page 183 of catty).

Mother's Day was about a month ago and I still haven't mailed mom this card. I am the worst daughter EVER!!!

Embrace Life Card

This card was made using the cracked glass technique. This was made at Jeri's Make and Take. First you smush the little white square in VersaMark, after you stamp the image and color it in with the stamp and write markers. Then you sprinkle the embossing powder on there (page 187 of catty) called Glassy Glaze Enamel. Then you heat with the heating tool. Then you repeat it 3 more times!!! Then you put the little white square in the freezer for 10 or 20 minutes, I can't remember - but it wouldn't hurt to do 20. Then you gently crack the paper by holding each side and bending it in different places.

Bunny Made With Punches

This little bunny is made from a variety of SU! punches! Isn't he sweet? I did not design this. A lady at the Mimi Meeting designed this. I lost the piece of paper with her name on it - so I feel bad I can't give you her name. The only things I changed are the cardstock colors and I added the flower for him to hold. She used grey, white & pink - which is also very cute. And she also added a rectangle piece of cardstock so he could hold a Hershey's nugget bar.

NEW DEMO- Wa-hoo!

I did it! I signed my agreement last night! I am now officially a Stampin Up! demo!
I am excited....and a little nervous. I really just want to do this as a hobby - but if someone ever wants me to have a Stampin Up! party - I will gladly do so. I really want to find a few people to scrapbook with and do a few new layouts each month, so I can finally get Eli's first scrapbook done. Gee - maybe someday I will actually get this done, lol!

Friend Mini Card

Just a mini 3x3 note card made using the SU! Three For You Punch Box.
These mini 3x3 note cards are nice to have on hand for:
1. Leaving notes on pillows for kids or hubby.
2. Putting them in a bag when someone purchases something from you.
3. Putting notes in lunch boxes.
4. Putting a card in a gift bag when you are in a hurry
5. Taping them on a small gift box or jar of goodies.
6. These are good for kids to have for when they want to write their friend a note
7. And also - these can be mailed if you stick them in a regular size envelope (just don't try to mail them in the little 3x3 envelope)!

Pink Flamingo Candle

I made this Pink Flamingo Candle for my mother-in-law. She is in a group called The Pink Flamingos. I hope she liked it. Stampin Up! does have a flamingo stamp set, and I have it on my wish list. But it is retired and very rare. I hope to find a used set from another demonstrator some day.
Single Stamp is from Michael's.
Ribbon is from Michael's.
Glass candle stand is from Hobby Lobby.
