I told you about the Christmas card class that I'm planning and thought I'd give you a peak at the cards that we'll make.

I have a couple of classes booked with a group of friends that are going to get together and have fun making cards.  If you're interested in a similar event just contact me and I'd be happy to do the class for you and your friends.  

Or, I'll be offering this beautiful class in my home.

Date:    Saturday, November 5th
Time:    1 pm to 4 pm
Venue:  My home in New Westminster

Price $25 for 5 cards

I hope you'll join me for the fun and make theses beautiful cards.

Register now or call or email me directly.

Hope to see you at the class!  Happy Stamping

Sweets for the Sweet!

Sweets for the Sweet!

Sunday, 18 September 2011

It's birthday season again in my world and I need to make a card for a dear friend.  I always find it hard to make masculine cards, but this stamp set is great for all ages.

I used some of the new colours for this season - Island Indigo, Calypso Coral and Pool Party along with the new Stamp Set - pin wheels are all over the place and this card was so easy!

This card was so easy to make and I'm sure will be a big hit!

For more information on the products and the card, please contact me.

Thanks for dropping by.

Gently Falling

Gently Falling

I just love the new stampset - Gently Falling and of course the coordinating Designer Series Paper.
We've just arrived home from a trip and our 13 month old puppy stayed with dear friends.

First a picture of Penny :)

She was so well taken care of and I made this card to say thank you!

Using the stamps as a collage to create a background is one of my favourite techniques.

If you want to learn more about this technique or see more samples of cards made with the stampset, email me!  I'd love to show you.

Thanks for dropping by.

Button Buddies - Oh sooo cute!

Button Buddies - Oh sooo cute!

Monday, 5 September 2011

I'm not usually drawn to "cutsy" stamp sets, but the moment I saw Button Buddies and some of the cards being made, I knew I just had to have it.

I just loved the simplicity of this set and a great way to embellish with just a button or maybe a ribbon!


These cards are made with the notecard and envelope set available in the Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalogue on page 182 and use all of the ideas from page 71 of the catalogue for the cards.  What a quick and easy way to create some fun cards or to make a gift for a friend.  Not cutting, just stamping and embellishing!  What could be easier and aren't they cute.

If you want to do more, it's easy to add Designer Series Paper, ribbon, brads - anything you want.

If you're interested in learning more about this quick and easy technique, contact me, I'd love to show you.

Thanks for dropping by!
