Scrappin' Sunday - a layout with pictures from Christmas. Paper is from Bo-bunny. I need to add some names and journaling to this page - oops!

I had quite the productive day yesterday so now if I can keep the momentum going I will be able to finish up some projects I have started that just need a little more work.

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend.

The card - used an older SU set for this one - Garden Collage. Colors are kraft and not quite navy. Scalloped rectangle is nestabilities.

Since I ventured out yesterday and got my errands done I think I will try to get some stamping done today......maybe even work on some class projects.

Happy stampin'

The card - stamps are from Vintage Vogue (SU) Colors are vanilla, kraft, suede and not quite navy.

More snow? Holy Cow! I was just beginning to be able to see the gravel in the driveway and the grass on the lawn again. Now it's a blanket of white again. Geez! Isn't it time for spring now???? Well, Ok, I know it's January and I live in Colorado, but still......... Have no idea what my plans are for the day - guess I really don't have any yet. I might just spend the day watching soap operas and eating bon bons - oh wait - I don't like soap operas and I have no bon bons! Dang! Guess I will have to come up with with a better plan.

Have a great day!

The card - stamp is Upsy Daisy (SU) I stamped the full image and then used a punch to to get the seperate squares. Colors are white and bermuda bay.

I kept getting side-tracked yesterday and didn't quite get all my work done that I had planned. So, today I need to get the kits cut and bagged for class tonight. But, hopefully I can get that done this morning so I can do a couple of errands this afternoon.

Have a great day!

The card - something a little different today - this is a hybrid card. Yep, I did part of this card on the computer using MDS (My Digital Studio) from SU. The kraft piece with the white medallion stamp is the part I did on the computer. I actually printed 2 of them and punched out the inner circle so I could pop it up. I cut the piece to the size I wanted and layered it on soft suede and then on a white card. I stamped the Happy Birthday (Papertrey) and added the ribbon and the pearl.

Need to get myself organized today - have to cut and bag kits for tomorrow night's class, plus get set up for class tonight.

Happy stampin'

The card - a little bit of Valentine's today. This one is kind of traditional - colors are riding hood red and white. I used the Vintage wheel on the white piece. Hearts are die cuts.

Need to get some paper work done this morning - yuk! Not my favorite thing, but a necessity. Then I think I will get started on Tracy's 'save the date' cards. I need to come up with some prototypes so she can decide what she wants.

Happy stampin'

Scrappin' Sunday - this was a layout we did in scrap class and I just added some fun pictures from Thanksgiving.

I'm planning another day of holing up in my stamp room - I think it's time to get started on some Valentine cards. (that's after I clean up the 'creative mess' I made yesterday)

Hope you are having a fabulous weekend.

Photo Saturday - my daughter Tracy just returned from a trip to Burma (which, in her words was 'oh so amazing') She sent me some pictures yesterday via e-mail and I just wanted to share this one with you.


I'm going to try and get creative this weekend and get some class projects done - or at least started! I have some awesome paper just waiting to be made into a book, so that's my goal today.

Hope your weekend is off to a wonderful start!

The card - stamp is from SU - inked with markers - olive, durango and curry. Card is dusty durango.

We're celebrating Deb & Emily's birthdays tonight. So I need to get some cooking done and birthday gifts made - and my stamp room cleaned up. I'm pretty sure all of that will keep me busy today.

Have a wonderful day.

Scrappin' Sunday - a very simple layout - pictures are from the Arch in St Louis.

Yesterday was a real scrappin' marathon for me - 10 hours of fun, food and great company and......I got 6 two-page layouts done! Yea! Loved it - I can hardly wait for the next one in February.

I'm hoping Judy S is still planning coming to stamp today - hopefully I can get cards done today and I will feel really good that it was such a productive weekend.

Hope you are having a great weekend.

The card - the layout for this card came from a card Deb did at our Stamp Club last month. The flower is from Stampabilities and the thank you is from CTMH. Colors are kraft, olive and razzleberry.

I think I am going to try and get some stamping done today. I still haven't gotten my thank you cards done (oh, that's bad!) and I need to start thinking about Valentines.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - stamps are from the new Vintage Vogue set (SU). Colors are riding hood red and soft suede.

Looking forward to our Shoebox Club tonight - thank goodness we aren't doing projects because I'm not sure I'd have one done! We're doing a white elephant stamp exchange, eating and playing games. Yea! Just a fun, relaxing evening.

Have a great day!
