Hi Everyone,

Wow What a crazy week end!  I had intentions of being crafty all week-end.  It didn't work as planned.  But that's ok.  

Today's project I am going to share with you is one of the cards in my Pocket Card Class.  

This is all using Simple Stories products.  (except the stamps)  I really love how it turned out.  The other 4 cards in this class are just as great.  Samples are at the store right now.  Scrap-a-Doodle Doo 37-C Swan Street, Ramsey, NJ.  Call to reserve your spot today.  201-818-7060.

Thinking of You

Hi Everyone,

Happy Monday.  This week-end just flew by.  I hope this week flies by just as fast.  

This whole week end I wanted to get into my room to play but I never did get around to it.  (Insert Sad Face HERE)  I am seriously going through withdrawals.  

Sunday I ended up picking up (with the help of a few friends) my New (used) Treadmill from my friend who live upstate New York.  I LOVE LOVE her scrap room.  :)  Its just wonderful.   When we finally made it back home I had to re-arrange my Living Room to fit the 6 Ft long treadmill into my small small space.  I didn't like the set up when I was done with it.  But I talked myself into leaving it.  I asked myself "How many visitors do I get?".  Not enough to matter SOOOO It stays as is.  I did get up this morning before work and ran/walked 1 1/2 miles.  I am going to do it again tonight before I go to bed.  Fingers crossed that I lose this yucky weight.  

On to today's card is another one I did at the Stamp-a-Stack last week end.  

All the cards for Stamp-a-stack are all easy easy cards.  Because we are making 10 cards they have to be quick and easy to make so we are not in the class all day and it still keeps the students interested.  :)  I am going to take a picture of how I organize my stamp-a-stack classes so you can get an idea of what it's like.  

The background stamp I uses is by Hero Arts and can be found here:  CLICK HERE

The Sentiment stamps is by Pink By Design and can be found here:  CLICK HERE

Wrapped a piece of white sheer ribbon around the main image and it adds a little bit of elegance to the card.  I LOVE LOVE the monochromatic look with Wisteria Wonder and Elegant Eggplant color by Stampin Up.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I am hoping to get into my room tonight to do a little crafting.  Fingers Crossed.  :)

Happy Monday!

Hi Everyone,

Well it is Monday, which means back to the grind stone.  Sort of Speaking.  :)  

This past week end was my Stamp-a-Stack at Scrap-a-Doodle Doo in Ramsey, NJ and we had a full house.  :)  The Ladies attending my class had a great time and learned some new things along the way.  

The card below is one of the cards we made.  

Thanks for stopping by today.  :)

 

 

Seed Packet Holder

Hi Everyone!  :)  

As Tuesday is slowly trucking along I thought I'd pop in here and share another card with you.  

On Friday I am in a Shoe Box Swap with some great friends.  A shoe box swap is where you prepare 1 card/project and everything to complete that card/project is included in the box.  (minus the basic tools like glue scissors....)  then you go around the room from spot to spot to put together every ones projects/cards.  :)  There are NOT ANY SHOES in the shoe box swap.  :)  lol  

This is my card/project I created.

This is a "Match book" style card.  The bottom is stapled to create a pocket.  The top lifts up from under the "Happy Birthday" portion of the card.  

Inside view here:

All the items used in this project are Stampin' Up.  (except the Sunflower Seed Packet)  :)

This past Saturday I went with some friends to a Tea House in Wayne, NJ for High Tea.  We had a great time.  Then afterwards we went over to my dear friends house for an afternoon of stamping and chatting.  This is one of the cards I came up with.  It is kind-of a simple card which every now and again we all need a little "Simple" in our lives.  :)  

All the supplies here are by Stampin' Up except the seam binding ribbon which was purchased at a cute little vintage place in Montclair, NJ called Parcels.  I love the "peachy-orangey" color.  I may have to go and add more to my ever-growing stash of ribbon.
