I am back....

Sorry for the lack of posting, but things have been crazy. I had a great time at a 10 for $10 that I attended last weekend that was put on by Beck Roberts. Her creativity always inspires me. Here are a few of the projects that we made.

Samples From Convention

This is a Pull Card that we created at the Pajama Stamp-a-Rama on the first evening of Convention. This used the Outlaw DP and the Wanted stamp set. I did not think I was going to like the Wanted set, but it has really grown on me. The embossed dots are created using the Crop-a-dial.

This is a 6x6 scrap book page from the pj party as well. I really like the looks of the Boho West.

Don't forget about the Dormant List

Dormant List

The Dormant List contains stamp sets that, while they have not been retired, will not be listed in the Fall/Winter Collection 2007. These sets are available for purchase from July 1, 2007 through January 1, 2008 and may or may not be listed again in future catalogs.

CASED from Becky

I decided to try the new color combinations that Becky posted on http://inkingidaho.blogspot.com/ and I think I really do like them. They really do not photograph as well as they really look. These cards only took about 5 minutes each. I wish I had the Soft Sky double stitched ribbon, but I had to go with Blue Bayou. I may change that out to the Groovy Guava.

I will have to say that I thought I was not going to like the Groovy Guava, but I think I do...

More soon, right now I have to finish the laundry, clean the house and get ready to go to a BBQ.

God Bless

What a moon!

The moon has been incredible the last few days. I was able to capture a little bit of the beauty last night.

Stampin' anyone?

So I felt like I at least needed to post one stamping project on my blog. So here it is.

These are 3x3 cards that I created for our Catalog Kickoff. Everyone loved making them and I think they really showcase the new colors, ribbons and designer paper well. Using the small corner rounder to do the scallops proved to be a bit challenging for the new stampers, but we made it through it.

God Bless

My Little Munchkin

Here is my little munchkin. His name is Timothy and he is the most wonderful blessing I could have ever dreamed of. He gives me so much joy and happiness every day. He is full of personality, as you can see by his picture.

Finally Did It

Well,

I have finally joined the world of blogging. We will see... I will be posting some of my work soon.
