Sweet Valentine

This came out so freaking cute! Better up close and personal... come to our Stamp Camp on the 30th in Monroe or the 31st in Seattle and make one for yourself. So easy to make too. I think I'll keep this one for myself!

Football Widows... unite!

I have nothing against the Seahawks. But this seemed to fit pretty good with our upcomming Stamp Camp for all of us foot ball widow types. However....I was thinking it might be a good idea to pick up a few Seahawk tickets when they become available for next season and give the spousal unit something to get him out of the house! (This is bad.... but that way I can spend the whole day stamping without hearing "What's for dinner!) It would be a gift to myself.

Although... picture this set done up in Huskie colors or Cougar grey and maroon? How about your local High School team? You could do a lot with this set. Plus...it's free if you want. Right now Stampin Up is having a nice little give away. For every $50 spent you can pick out a new set of stamps from the list. Nice list to choose from. Just thought you might like to know!

Black and White and some Red all over

One of my favorite stamp sets but it has to have just the right look. I've had these big circle brad rivet things for a long time and nothing sprang to mind with what to do with them... then I made a blunder on the card and the light bulb went on. And it made just the right little spot for a little sparkly bling! I was thinking this looks kind of manly and I might just need to pop some Reba McIntyre and George Strait tickets for the spousal unit in this for V-day.

Got a complaint?

You might complain but I can't heeeaaarr you! I saw this on Stampin Up demonstrator site and just cracked up! I'm a fiend for chocolate bunnies but this one gave me something to chew on!

Getting Punchy!

I saw this on SCS and fell in love with it. The lady who came up with this is awesome! I had to give it a try.... hmmmm.... could this be included in our next Stamp Camp on 1/30? I'm just saying.... be there or be square cuz we might be going in circles!

Football Widows Stamp Camp

Hi Everyone!
January 30, Saturday at 1:00 we're having a Stamp Camp in honor of us who have been abandoned for Football. I don't have anything against football. I actually love it. But it's going to be a house full of Cave Dwelling - Testosterone Troglydites invading my living room one. So I'm throwing a stamp camp prior. (That way if you order something it will be here in time for you to be busy so you can escape from all those tears when the QB get's sacked.)

Wear Black! We're having Football Food. (I told Maria that I was going to make it a "tail gate" party. Since I don't know where to find a tail gate from a truck I was going to make some long cat tails, dog tails, squirrel tales and make a gate from them! She called me a "Spazz". Haven't been called that in a while!)

I have some super great ideas for Stamp camp and a chance to get an estrogen fix before all those sweaty boys show up! It's hard being a girl in a house full of boys.

Are you with me? RSVP and I'll give you the rest of the deets!

Now check out some of these cards for a tiny taste of what's to come!

Love Notes!

I used the "Tiny Tags" set in the clear. I'm in love with that style. So easy and hardly takes up any space. Finally some relief to my stamping room! The tiny tag punch is a mus have. Stampin Up really did good with the clear blocks. Oh! You really need to see up close and personal the Sendin Love Specialty Designer paper... seriously.. it is so beautiful. It has glitter and gloss.... you can't appreciate it until you see it and touch it. I had to order more. I suppose I'll need to make about 40 new friends to give Valentines to this year because I love this stuff!

Red Valentine

This is the one that get's the ooh's and aaahs! It was so much fun and came out so striking beautiful. The "Build a Brad's" were a hit at Stamp camp. I even bought a bunch more. It was my first time sharing it at Stamp camp and I just love the look of it. If you haven't tried it... trust me... you'll be hooked. (I'm thinking how cute it would be with tiny photos..hmmm... idea!)

Christ Is Born

This set was really a joy to work with and the results were so beautiful. It took me by suprise. (I didnt' realize I grabbed the crookedy one...oops!) Everyone at Stamp Camp loved using this set too.

Got Bots?

This set was so way cute I had to have it. Even though it's sort of juvenile it's so adorable. I had to have it. I suppose I'm going to have to get to know a few more juveniles!

Gone Postal!

Totally love that little spot of blue to give it that Old Fashioned look. I'm not a huge fan of chalk. Something about the texture gives me chills. But this was so worth it. I think it's time to get counseling about my chalk issues because this came out so beautiful and easy.

Razzleberry Love!

I'm finally getting to love the new "In Color's". Took me awhile. But this was so bright and cheery to do. And Easy! That's the best part!

Surf's Up!

Such a fun card to make. I absolutely love "Extreme Elements". I've ordered the "Just Football" and can't wait to try it out Seahawk style... or Cougar style... or Huskie style... or Monroe HS style.... endless options!

Chocolate Medallion

Yum! We did this at Liz's Stamp Camp way out in Arlington in the neatest log cabin home. Awesome Camp

Sweet Memories Gingerbread

This was so much fun to do and looks so much cuter in real person. Almost edible. We did this at Roberta's house for Stamp Camp
