Happy September and upcoming class project

Can you believe it is September 4th already!?! I find it difficult.  Where did August disappear to?
Since just returning from a short visit to South Dakota, I haven't had time to create anything new so I'm going to show a sneak peek at one of the cards I will have for our class this coming weekend.
We are having our classes on Friday and Sunday this month due to the Stampin' Up! Regional conference here in Denver on Saturday.  Can't wait!  I love these events.  It's so fun to be around hundreds of other people who have the same passion for paper crafting as I do!

I also want to point out Stampin' Up!'s September Special.  For each $40.00 order you can get FREE ribbon!  What a deal!!!  Click on the link on the left side of the page for more details.

OK, enough jabbering..... Here is the card for class along with the inspiration card I CASE'd.

 
We will be adding a More Mustard layer under the center DSP.

    I love this set and almost got it until I saw the YUM set right after this one with matching framlits also and it was more geared to my grapevine and the grape jelly I make every year so went with that one only because of the grapes. I might regret it and have to break down and get this one to go with the other one.. Ha!

Welcome to my new blog

I have been putting this off for a long time, but have decided that now is the time for me to enter the blogging world.  I have the blog feature on my Stampin' Up! website, but it seems limited compared to what I see on other's blogs.  I hope to update this one more often now that I have a bit more time on my hands.  I quit working my full time "day job" the end of May.  I wanted to be able to spend more time with my family and devote more time to my Stampin' Up! business without working late into the nights as I have been. Please hang with me while I try to learn all that is necessary to make this blog interesting and informative for you, my readers. I'll begin by posting a photo (still need a photo box) of the cards that were made at my last class here at the house.  The pink one was partially CASE'd from an Australian Blogger, Teneale Williams.  I really love her work.  The bird card was a CASE from a swap I received at convention in July.  The o

Button was from my "stash".  Hope you enjoy! Inside:  Verse was printed on the computer. Supplies use: PAPER:  Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla, Early Espresso, Cajun Craze, More Mustard, Champagne Shimmer STAMPS - Wonderfall and Teeny Tiny Wishes INK: Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Cherry Cobbler, Soft Suede, Early Espresso, More Mustard The technique is called "Plaid".  Instructions for that are:  Ink your stamp (in this case the leaf) in the lightest color (in the case, pumpkin pie).  Then, using the next darkest color (in the case Cajun Craze) just use the very edge of your in pad, angling so just the narrow knife edge touc
