Stamp Camp!

I had a great night visiting with friends and creating a great gift. We made a beaded pen, post-it cover, clippie and 4 cards that we placed in a clear box! They really turned out great! We used the Barocque Motif, old olive paper and ink and the new purely pomegranate paper and ink! We also used some of the new barocque paper on the post-it and the pen! I love it!

Mad Rush!

I have be organizing and cleaning for the big family rush! My family is so excited because our family from Texas will be arriving on Tuesday and will visit for a week then our family from England will come the following week to spend a week! I did manage to get ready for a workshop last night and will squeeze in a stamp camp on Monday. Here is the project we completed at the workshop last night. This is just a two page book but the girls all made four page books!

Stamp Camp

Before the big family rush, I'm planning a stamp camp for friends I haven't seen all summer! We'll be making four cards, a post-it note holder, a beaded pen and a clippie. I made this one for my sister! The camp will be using one of the stamp sets out of the new catty!

I just love the clear boxes they add so much to the finished project!

Schools Finally Out for Summer!

Well, I'm finally out of school! It's been crazy with me in school the kids out of school and Sarah holding down her first job! As you might have guessed I haven't had much time for stamping! I did have a hostess club meeting last month and we had a good time making a summer hostess gift!

More Cards

I'm a terrible photographer so you can't see that the cake card is actually embossed and the sparkles don't seem to show up either. I did happen to get my hostess club started and these are the cards we completed. The group has decided to work on gifts when we meet monthly, that should be fun! I also included a gift for my friend Jen's new baby boy, Max!

Getting Back to my stamping!

I have had very little time to stamp but did want to share a few photos of some cards I've been able to finish! I'm kinda in the mood for white!

Lost in the Haze!

It's been forever since I last posted, so much for my new Year's resolution! Anyway, I've just been wrapped up in life and I'm now trying to fight my way through the haze. I have two more weeks of school and then I'll have a month off! Yea! My 12 year old daughter broke her arm and we have been consumed with that event since she might be facing surgery. I have had a little time to do what I love the most but not much. I was able to make a few cards, modify a clip board and get things ready for a Mother's Day class. Other than that I didn't get to host a workshop or a class in April due to my school calendar. So many assignments so little time! What I want to be saying is "so many stamps so little time"! Oh well, May and July will be the months for that.
