I actually did spend the day yesterday in my stamp room - class projects for this week are done and I even managed to get a few cards made. Woo hoo! Now today I need to cut and bag kits, plus do some household chores (laundry, for one!)
Happy stampin'
This is the card I made for the birthday bash I went to last night. Bill restores old cars and at one time had a car just like this. Judy S had this stamp and it was just perfect! Color is basic grey. (the car is cut out and popped up) 
The card - circles and more circles. This was a fun one to do. Stamps are from Hero Arts. Card is sahara sand. Circles are stamped with razzleberry and soft suede.
Today - have a birthday bash to attend tonight and have to get salad and beans made for my "potluck" contribution. Hopefully I can get a little work done too - still haven't gotten the class projects done - yikes!
Enjoy your weekend.
The card - images are from Autumn Days (SU) Colors are soft suede and crushed curry.
I am definitely going to work on class projects today. I got a little sidetracked yesterday - got to go to lunch with friends Leslie and Michelle. It was pretty cool since I haven't seen Michelle for almost 3 years! So, today, no excuses, I am going to get those projects done!
Enjoy your day!
The card - stamp is from Of the Earth (SU) I stamped the image with Razzleberry full strength and once or twice again before re-inking.

Enjoy your day!

Happy stampin'
A little more Razzle Dazzle. Stamp is inked with soft suede and pretty in pink markers. Scalloped rectangle is a nestabilities. Card is soft suede with kraft mat.
So, I'm all rested up and ready to get back to reality - well, more or less. I have a full week of classes coming up, plus projects to get ready for next month. Today I need to run a few errands, do the laundry and get things set up for class tonight.
Enjoy your day!

Card and panel are vanilla.We had a wonderful, relaxing day yesterday wandering around Main Street, a stop at Enstrom's and dinner at Dos Hombres. (a really local kind of day!)
Now the company is gone and it's back to reality today - darn! I was having such a good time. I always love spending time with Marleen - and Scott and Alyssa are charming young adults and great to have around. Don't have much I have to do today, but I am looking foward to scrapping with friends tonight - that will be fun.
Hope your weekend is off to a great start!

The card - Razzle Dazzle stamp (SU) with some razzleberry lemonade paper. I inked the stamp with markers (olive, melon, curry). Card is Melon Mambo, center is white with an old olive mat.
Today - the first job is put my house back together. It's amazing what a project in one room leads to. The ceiling is fixed but the rest of the house is still covered with dust from the dry wall so I'm off to get that cleaned up.
It's going to be a great week because my cousin Marleen (from California) and her son, Scott and daughter Alyssa will be here this afternoon. I've cleared my calendar for the week and I'm looking forward to play time for the entire week. Woo hoo!
Have a wonderful day!
The card - stamp is from Thoughts and Prayers (SU) - I inked the stamp with markers (olive & not quite navy) and added a tiny pearl in the center of each flower. Love those pearls. Card and pattern paper is Not Quite Navy.
Grocery shopping today and then cleaning up a mess. Jeff decided it was time to fix the ceiling in the utility room. I had a leak in the roof and it took forever to figure out where it was and get it fixed - so the ceiling has been a mess for a very long time. But now the ceiling will look almost normal again. But, oh my gosh, there is dry wall dust everywhere in the house! I can't really get started on the mess until Jeff is finished sanding and painting, so I will try to get some odds & end done in the mean time.
Hope you are having a fabulous weekend!
The card - medallion stamp (SU) - color is blue bayou.
Not much productivity for me last night. Our trip to Delta was very fun, yummy dinner. I tried to get a card done when we got back, but it just wasn't working. Deb worked on some swaps and Sherry was helping her with that - I think they were much more productive than I was.
I'm going to get out and try to do some yard work this morning before the weather gets bad - they are saying it's going to be windy. It's a little damp, seems it rained during the night. But, I'm going to give it a try.
Enjoy the beginning of your weekend!
The card - a very old stamp from Great Impressions. Kind of fun to dig out the old stuff once in a while! I inked the stamp with markers (dusty durango, olive and black). I added a touch of blue to the jars with chalk. (and I can't tell you how long it's been since I dug those chalks out of the drawer) Card is old olive, mats are kraft and dusty durango.
The rain has kind of put a kink in part of my plan for the day. I intended to get caught up on my yard work this morning - um, guess that will have to wait for another day. I guess I will move on plan B - whatever that is. This afternoon Deb, Sherry & I are going to Delta for a little scrapbooking retail therapy at The Scrappy Moose - then dinner at Davetos (yum), then back here to stamp. OK - do you think we'll actually get anything accomplished when we get back? Stay tuned - I'll let you know how that works out!
Have a wonderful day!
The card - stamps are from Verve. The flowers and flower pot are stamped, cut out and popped up. Colors are Melon Mambo and So Saffron.
Today - chores this morning and then I have to take my car in to be serviced this afternoon. Looking forward to our Shoebox Club this evening. A full day.
Happy stampin'
The card - more Razzle Dazzle. I inked the stamp with markers - colors are olive, razzleberry and crushed curry.
Today - oh, where to start. I have so much I want to get done that I'm overwhelmed and not sure where to begin. I guess I better start with a project for our Shoebox Club which is tomorrow night. Hopefully I can get that done this morning and move on to more things on my list. Class tonight.
Have a wonderful day!
The card - floral stamped image is from Clearly Impressed, script background is from Glitz (stamped with saffron). Colors are kraft, black and saffron.
We had a wonderful time at Stamp Club last night - great cards Deb!
Today - class this morning and another class this evening.
Have a wonderful day!
The card - stamp set is Razzle Dazzle (SU) I copied this card from one that Roni did with us the other night - I loved these colors together (soft suede and bordering blue).
Today - have to get started tearing tiles off the shower walls downstairs today. The walls have to be re-done because the tiles are falling off. My son Jeff is coming out to do that sometime this week and my job is to get all the tiles off - oh fun! I do have Stamp Club with Deb to look forward to tonight though - yea!
Enjoy your day!
The card - stamped image is the new Medallion stamp from SU. I stamped it with a VersaMark Dazzle pad (champagne). Kind of a cool effect, although the sparkle doesn't show in the photo. Colors are kraft and soft suede.
Today - really have no idea. Have a lot to do, just not sure where to start. I will come up with a plan before the day gets away from me - I hope!
Enjoy your day!
We had a wonderful time at a stamp class with Roni last night. Great cards and lots of fun. Thanks Roni!

Have a wonderful day!
The card - flower is from In Full Bloom (SU) - stamped with chocolate and colored with baja, cut out and popped up. Colors are chocolate, baja and kraft.
Today - another day of stamping with Deb - yea! I should work on getting class stuff cut, but we'll see - I'm having way more fun just stamping for fun!
Enjoy the day!
The card - I used the circle circus set (SU) for this card. I tried something a little different (for me) and stamped the images with a VersaMark Dazzle pad - frost. It gives it just a bit of shimmer which you can't see in the photo. Kind of cool. The sentiment is from PaperTrey Ink. Colors are Bermuda Bay and kiwi.
Today - Deb will be here again today. More stamping time. I got quite a bit accomplished yesterday so here's hoping for another productive day.
Have a wonderful day!
The card - another watercolor rose. I did this one with real red and pretty in pink. (I played with it a little too much and didn't end up with much pink showing)
Today - Deb will be here to stamp while her son is at soccer. That means I need to get my act together and get the table cleaned off! I'm going to try and get the cards finished for card class.
Enjoy your day!
The card - stamp is from Thoughts and Prayers (SU). I used old olive and dusty durango markers to ink the stamp. After stamping I punched the circles from the image. (I used a 1 1/4" circle punch) The circles are popped up. Background is swiss dots embossing folder from cuttlebug. The card is vanilla and the mat is dusty durango.
Today - I am going to try and get some yard work done this morning. Then if I still have any ambition left I am going to get the kits cut and bagged for class tomorrow night.
Enjoy your day!
The card - another one with Judy's scallop flourish from Hero Arts. I used Crushed Curry for this one. White piece is embossed with cuttlebug embossing folder, printed paper is from Razzleberry Lemonade (SU). Happy Birthday is from Papertrey Ink.
Today - a little yard work this morning. A couple of errands and cleaning up my stamp room this afternoon. (somehow I made a mess without really accomplishing anything - how did that happen?) Stamping with friends tonight.
Enjoy your day!
The card - stamp is from Clearly Impressed (Stampington & Co). This is another stamp set Judy S brought over for me to play with - love the images in this set. Image is stamped with Bermuda Bay, Dusty Durango and Crushed Curry.
I haven't made much progress on that long list of things I wanted to get done this week. I think my motivation got lost somewhere along the way. I'm going to look for it (my motivation, that is) and maybe I can get something accomplished today. I'm looking forward to dinner out with friends tonight.
Happy stampin'
The card - stamp set is Thoughts and Prayers (SU) I used razzleberry and old olive markers to ink the stamp. A razzleberry mat and ribbon add a bit more color.
Well, finishing card class in the dark last night was a new experience. The electricity went off just before we got to the last card. The class room is in the basement so it was very dark - but we persevered by coming upstairs and finishing at the dining room table which is by the window. Interesting experience.
Today - have to go get a haircut this morning, then lunch with my cousin this afternoon. Kind of a chopped up day, but hopefully I can do some more work on class projects in between.
Have a wonderful day!
The card - my friend Judy S brought this Hero Arts stamp (the scalloped circle) over and wanted me to figure out what to do with it. What??? Now everyone knows I copy things - didn't have anything to copy - oh no! So.......I saw this layout somewhere and thought maybe it might work. I stamped the image with suede and used the suede dsp from SU. Added a cuttlebug butterfly.
Today - back to work on class projects for next week. Class tonight.
Have a wonderful day!
The card - stamp is from Echoes of Kindness (SU). Background on card is a Quick Kutz embossing folder. Colors are black, white and saffron. Colored the stamped image with celery and a touch of lavender. Used the label punch from SU for the sentiment.
Have a long list of things to get done this week, so I need to figure out where to start today. Had sort of planned on working in the yard, but it rained quite a bit here last night, looks like things are pretty wet this morning. (oh yeah, that's a good enough excuse for me to put that off!) Guess I will do some errands and then get to work on class projects.
Enjoy your day!
This is probably my favorite card I have done over the last few days. Not sure why - I just liked it a lot. Colors are vanilla, cocoa and black. The leaves are from Verve and the butterflies are Hero Arts. The cocoa strip is embossed with a cuttlebug embossing folder.
Today - a little more yard work this morning. Laundry this afternoon and stamping with friends this evening.
Enjoy your day!
The card - SU's Circle Circus set - color is Razzleberry. Super simple - the circles are stamped on white, punched out and added to razzleberry piece.
How can it be Thursday already? The week is getting away from me. I've spent most of it in my stamp room and have to say I have been fairly productive. But........not much else has gotten done. So, today I am going to get some yard work done and try to get caught up on some household chores that I keep putting off. Looking forward to dinner out with some friends tonight!
Happy stampin'
I decided to try the watercolor roses I have seen all over the internet lately. They really are a lot of fun to do and I ended up doing several in different colors. I need to practice though - I tend to 'over blend' and end up with not enough difference in color. This is one I did with Blue Bayou and baja. It doesn't show in the photo, but I sprayed the rose with Glimmer Mist - it also looks darker in real life.
Today - household chores and a trip to the bank. Nothing very exciting - but hopefully some stamping time thrown in there somewhere too.
Enjoy your day.
Something a little different today - I made these inchies into a 6 x 6 card. The inchies were stamped on different colors of paper, layered on black and pale plum, then added to the card front. The stamps are from Inkadinkado.
Not sure what my plan is for today. Have some paper work to do, laundry and ............... Guess I will go with the flow. Class tonight, so need to get things set up for that.
Have a great day!
