Cherish

Hello Stampers,

It's almost the weekend. I have to get my but in gear with my cards. I have a Baby Shower card and sympathy card that I need for the weekend....fingers crossed I get them done in time. Today's card is the second Valentine's design that I made. This was cased by a fellow demonstrator that I found on Stampin Connection. I think it's simple and elegant with just a little bit of colour. I hope you like and thanks for stopping by!

Love is in the air

Hey Stampers,

I know I said I would have some scrapbooking pages uploaded for you today but I have pictures of my nephews on the pages that I'd just like to blur out and first need to figure out how to do that first and then I'll post them.

On to today's project. I think I've made more Valentine's cards in the past few days then I ever have. lol I've made 2 designs and completed 10 cards in each design. This is the first one I did. I think she is just adorable and I'm really happy the way it turned out. I am also loving the red glitter paper from the mini catalogue. The colouring doesn't come out in the picture as nicely as in person but it still looks good. Hope you like, leave a comment to let me know what you think.

Valentine's Class

Me again. I just sent out invites for my Valentine's class on the 29th and wanted to upload an image of the projects. They are really fun to make and can be decorated in a few different ways. Here are a few the I made the other night and filled with candy. I hope you can join me. If you have any questions please feel free to email me at les.smith@rogers.com

Happy New Year!

Hello Friends,

I have been working hard in my craft room the past month. My stamping new years resolution for this year is to be more organized. Which means planning ahead. I've already planned out for the year classes I'd like to teach, projects I will be selling at a craft show as well as some of my projects we'll be doing in my monthly club. With this I hope to be a better blogger so wish me luck!

Today's project I'm sharing was one of the last Christmas cards I made last year and I thought that I would share it with you. Tomorrow I will be sharing some Christmas scrapbook pages that we made in a class over the holidays and then I'll be moving on to some Valentine's projects. This card was pretty easy and quick to put together once I cut the dove out. I made 10 of theses cards in and evening. When I'm making my Christmas cards I like to make 10 of them at a time.

Thanks for stopping by, let me know what you think!

SPOOKY!

Happy Halloween! I can hardly wait to see my 3 nephews and niece in their Halloween costumes later today. I think the best part about Halloween is the kids.

This is the banner that we made a my Halloween class a couple weeks ago. It was a lot of fun and I think all the ladies loved the projects we made...and of course the chocolate! I got the idea from Kimberly Van Diepen's blog. She is absolutely inspiring and you should definitely check out her blog. Each participant in the class did something different with their banner and I'm happy to report that I've been to my parents house and my mom has her banner already hanging by the fire place. The designer paper used is Wicked Fun and the stamp sets were Wicked Cool and Dark & Dreary. I hope you like and thanks for checking in
