Pre-made cards for sale!

I had a request from someone to make cards, package them and sell them. I thought, gee why didn't I think of that already, so that is what I will be doing. If you don't have time to make your own cards this year for Christmas or whatever holiday that is coming up, I will make them for you. I will package up 5 cards and 10 cards. Or if you would prefer to buy singles I can do that too. I will be working on a store front to add to my blog so keep on the look out for that. In the meantime, any of the cards that have already been posted on my blog can be purchased as a single or in sets. Just email me and let me know and I can get them sent right out to you. If your card order is over $25.00 than s + h is free!

Snow Swirled

I really liked how this turned out. I didn't want this stamp set until a fellow demo Lyn showed us a really cute card she made with it and then I had to have it. I missed getting the discounted price on it but I guess I will have to live with that. Here's the Recipe:

Stamp Set- Snow Swirled, Heard from the Heart

Cardstock-Kiwi Kiss, Chocolate Chip, Ski Slope

Ink-Whisper White Craft Ink

Irredescent Ice Embossing Powder, Ribbon-Theater (retired)

Hello everyone! Welcome back! I started out making this card one way and ended up going another way. I had a lovely lady mail me the Martha Stewart gooey punch and my first thought was it would make great ice cycles! I'm still working on it using vellum and crystal effects. For this card I just used crystal effects and glitter. It is really pretty in person. Great minds think alike because I had just finished this card and went to check on my favorite blogs and Dawn at Dawns Stampin Thoughts kinda did the same thing (or technique) but she made her cycles on wax paper and I just did them right on the card. I love this tree. When I first saw it in the Holiday Mini I instantly said how great it would be with Ice cycles on it.. I think it turned out great!

Here's the Recipe:
Card Stock-Real Red, Kiwi Kiss, Whisper White Stamps-Season of Friendship, All Holidays, Window Dressing, Wishing You Cheer Inks- Real Red, Baja Breeze, Black, Timber Brown(Stazon), White Craft Ink
Crystal Effects, Dazzling Diamonds, Crystal Fine (Martha Stewart)

What is C.A.S.E.D.?

I had someone ask me what CASED meant. Well it means...CASE (Copy And Steal/Share Everything)! The stamping/scrapbook communities do not mind if you use others designs as long as you give credit and you don't try to pass it off as your own. It takes the pressure off of you when you are having "Stampers Block".
Happy Stampin & Go Burn some Rubber!

Fall

I'm on a Fall High! I love fall! The crisp breeze, the smell of burning leaves, the sound that the leaves make when you walk through them. Bon Fires and S'mores, that's what I'm talkin about! Can I get an AMEN! Anyway, here is another fall card using "A Tree for All Seasons". I used the new DSP from the Holiday mini...love it! I am lacking in sentiments so I did use a retired one but you can easily use something else that is current. I really need to remember to turn off the time/date stamp when taking pictures to post. Sorry about that.Here is the recipe:

Stamp Set: A Tree For All Seasons, Friendship Blooms

Paper: Chocolate Chip, Really Rust, Baja Breeze, More Mustard, Whisper White, DSP Autumn Vine

Fall Themed Cards

Hey Stampers! Here is a cute Fall themed card using our "A Tree For All Seasons" set (located on our Dormant List) and our Fall themed DSP that will be available starting the 1st of October! It was kinda flat so I added Crystal Effects to the leaves after they had been colored. Here is the Recipe:

Stamp Set: Tree for All Seasons, Heard From the Heart

Ink- Chocolate Chip Marker, Really Rust Marker, Old Olive Marker, Black Stazon

DSP Autumn Vine, Really Rust, More Mustard, Chocolate Chop cardstock

Chocolate Chip Satin Ribbon (retired)

Tools/Accesories- Crystal Effects, Ticket Corner Punch, 1 3/4" Circle Punch, 1 3/8" Circle Punch

Snowman Soup

Snowman Soup is what inspired me to make this cute little guy! I decided to go a different route and use chicken noodle soup instead of cocoa. I changed the standard poem just a little bit. I stamped the images (masking and all) I'm still not sure if I like the final product or not. I may keep working on him.

Have a cup of cheer!

Here is the card I made for a Card Swap. I masked the images, colored and filled in with markers. Isn't it the cutest? I am going to post later how I also used the same design to make Snowman Soup bag toppers. Talk about cute. It was rather time consuming, but the Snowman soup is going to be stocking stuffers for my family so it was well worth it. I took all of my supplies with me to Missouri so I could work on them while we visited my MIL and family. Here is the recipe:

Stamp Set - Merry & Bright, All Holidays, Pun Fun Paper- Real Red, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Baja Breeze, DSP Ski Slope Ink- black Stazon, Baja Breeze Markers- Real Red, Old Olive, Close to Cocoa Tools/Accesories- Blender Pen, Dazzling Diamond, Signo White Gel Pen

John & Sally's Anniversary

I love the butterfly in this set. To be honest it is the only reason I got the set. I used the scallop border punch which I absolutely love and I gave the wings a little bling with Dazzling Diamonds. I gave this card to my SIL for her Wedding Anniversary. Here is the recipe:

Stamp Sets- Dreams du Jour Paper- Pink Piroette, Kiwi Kiss, DSP Pretty In Pink (retired), Whisper White cardstock Ink- Pink Pirouette, Basic Black Tools/Accessories- Square scallop, Scallop Border, Dazzling Diamonds, 2-Way Glue, Diminsionals, VersMark

Thinking of You

I have been working on my rummage sale items and have been making goodies with my favorite set of all time "I Like It A Latte" I came across this layout on Spiltcoast and I had to C.A.S.E. it. Talk about pretty. I used the new in-colors. The scallop is made with the scallop circle punch.

Here is the Recipe:

Kiwi Kiss, Pink Pirouette, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White cardstock, Signo Gel Pen, Close to Cocoa velvet ribbon, Chocolate Chip Ink , Scallop Punch and pink eyelets

Kay's Birthday Card

Here is the first card that I am posting. This card layout I found on Splitcoast. I added glitter to the white parts of the roses. You can never have to much glitter. I just love this paper, it is just gorgeous!

Welcome to my Blog...

Hello Happy Stampers! I have been working on getting a blog up and running for quite some time now. Tonight during the tornado warnings I finished it up. I debated on what to save first if a tornado were to have touched down and I gotta say, I wondered how I would collect all my Stampin Up! supplies and keep them safe with me and the girls..oh and hubby. There is going to be so much information on my blog your head might just spin off..hehe.
I am wanting to get a few clubs together: a marker club, hostess club, stamp club and various other clubs I can come up with. If there is something that you would like to make or would like to host let me know and I will do my best to accommodate you. I was wanting to have a stamp club start up right now but it may have to wait until January when the next Catalog comes out.
