I feel like I'm slightly crazed maniac, hopping back and forth between Fall and Christmas projects! I'm afraid you're just going to have to put up with that for a couple months. I can't skip fall but I can't ignore the fact that now is the time to be working on Christmas projects before life gets too busy during the holidays! We're hopping back to a fall card today, one we are making in the Fall Occasions Card Class right now. Continue reading
1st Christmas Card in the Mail
I received my first Christmas card of the year in the mail two weeks ago. No, I'm not kidding! It's a sample card from my upline. Sharing ideas is part of stamping! The card came just at the right time as I was trying to figure out another card design for our last Christmas Card class. I didn't copy it exactly, especially since I don't have all the same exact supplies, but enough that some of you may notice the resemblance from our last class. I'll have to show you that card tomorrow. Here is the card I received in the mail. Continue reading
Sleigh Ride Edgelit Dies
The Sliegh Ride Edgelit Dies were dubbed as an immediate purchase for me when I first say the Holiday Catalog. I love the look of the silhouette, and with the sleigh, it's just gives a classic Christmas look to any project! I am really hoping Stampin' Up! will offer more edgelits along this line in the Spring catalog! You just can't go wrong with these! Here is a card we made in the first Christmas Card class and then I demonstrated it at a recent party. Continue reading
Happy Scenes Spider in the Window
A little while back I shared a card and titled it "How Much is that Kitty in the Window", such a cute card! Today's card has a spider in the window, I'm just not sure how many of us would care to ask how much it costs for a spider . . . This one is tolerable though, he's outside building a pretty web on a nice fall day! Continue reading

Festive Fireplace Stamp of the Month
I am beyond excited for the the October Stamp of the Month class! The Festive Fireside stamp set, with it's coordinating dies, is so fun to play with!

How Much is that Kitty in the Window?
This was the favorite card we created in the evening session of the Happy Scenes Stamp of the Month class earlier this week! This card does not actually use any stamps from the stamp set, it simply uses the coordinating dies (after all, this was the "extra" card participants made if they decided to also get the dies). Curious? Continue reading
