Hello Friends... I have been in a funk lately, and mostly lounging around the house. Today we went to church, I got a pedicure (while my fabulous husband went grocery shopping!), came home and threw a pork butt (!) in the crock pot (making pulled pork sandwiches for dinner) and spent the afternoon stamping. Fun day, right? The pulled pork was kind of a pain to shred. Ugh. But it could be all

Ahhh.....Friday again! I love Fridays...the beginning of the weekend, no work for me on Fridays, and of course, Blog Hop Day. :) This weeks theme is WINTER FUN. We haven't had much of a winter here on the East Coast...unless of course, you count that miserable storm back in October that left us without power for 10 days! While it was a royal pain, the snow on the morning of the storm was

Hello Friends, I apologize for not being around. We just had too much on our plate, and I needed some time to decompress and take care of my family. I have missed being part of the Blog Hop Friday Group. I am excited to be jumping back in this week! Mandy picked out a great sketch for this weeks challenge, and I just love it. (Thanks, Mandy for a great sketch). Here is the sketch: And here is

Hello Friends, I have been on a bit of a hiatus this past month.  I had a box here with all kinds of new goodies in it, and Monday I FINALLY opened the box and stamped! You should have received your Mini in the mail a few weeks ago. If you didn't, be sure to give me a shout and I will get one out to you. I fell in love with the Apothocart Art set on first sight!

Woo Hoo! It's Friday! I am so glad! I have such a busy weekend ahead, as I am sure most of you do also! Lots of fun Christmas activities and family time! We have decided as a group to make the next few weeks a general Christmas theme! I was so excited by that idea, because I just finished designing my holiday cards in MDS! I wanted a classic and simple design...and because I love the pictures,

Hello Friends....Happy Friday! I am excited to be back in the swing of things this week! Thanks for being patient with me! This weeks challenge is monochromatic. Super fun challenge because it leaves it wide open! I decided to scrap some cupcake pictures we took at a fun shop on our summer vacation. And when I think cupcakes, I think PINK!

Hello Everyone - I am sorry that I did not get a project made this week. We've had a lot on our plate (including a death in our family) so I have been a little off my game the past 2 weeks. Please make sure to continue on the blog hop and see what the other gals have created for you this week! I promise to be back next Friday with a post for you! Happy Thanksgiving to all... 1. Jeanna

Hello All...Happy Saturday! I am getting ready for my November Christmas Card Club this morning. During the storm I missed 2 classes, so we are in makeup mode! I am excited to stamp with these ladies this morning. I have a rather large group and we break it up in to 3 smaller gatherings during the course of the month. It works great because they can pick and choose what date works for them each

Welcome back to another edition of MDS Blog Hop Friday! I hope you are all having a great week! I am SO happy that Friday is here! What a long week! We are finally getting back to our normal lives after that huge storm and 10 long days without power! How crazy was that? I was so sad the kids missed out on Halloween! And now we are just 2 weeks away from Thanksgiving! WOW! This week, the theme

Hello All! So sorry for being MIA - We are finally back in business! Wow! What a storm! We lost power for 10 days! Isn't that incredible? The damage is just shocking. We ended up at a hotel from Thursday - Monday. And I am so happy to report our power came on yesterday! And today I did (no kidding) 10 loads of laundry! LOL Anyway, I am busy getting ready for Stamp Clubs that were rescheduled

Well, it is snowing like crazy here in CT. I won't complain, because really, who wants to hear one more person whine about the weather? It is what it is. I do love Snow Days though...because it's 2 PM and I am still in my pajamas! :) I stamped quite a bit this morning, working on my November Christmas Club Cards and also making samples up for our Holiday Stamp A Stack! So let me share a Holiday

Welcome Back! I love this weeks theme...Christmas Cards! Honestly, making my own photo cards was one of the things that first attracted me to MDS. It is so expensive going to a studio, and having them make them for you. I take my own picture, and create something beautiful and unique on MDS. And as a bonus, Stampin' Up! has offered lower bulk print pricing just in time for the holidays! Make sure

Here is a simple but pretty Christmas Card. I love how clean it is, and so easy you could mass produce these in a heartbeat. The card base is Whisper White. The crumb cake layer was sponged in Whisper White ink on the edges...makes it look snowy. :) The snowflake is die cut from the Northern Frost Die Cut using our Silver Glimmer paper. I added a white button to the middle and some white bakers

Hello Stampers! Today is FRIDAY...and you know that means MDS Blog Hop Day! I was sadly not able to participate this week, as I am on overload! But I do still have a stamped treat to share with you today. This is one of the bonus cards from the Snow Much Fun Class I held this month. How cute is this little Christmas tree? :0) This card comes together pretty quickly, but has lots of fun

Hello Stampers, Well my not so little man, Jacob, is having his 10th birthday party this weekend. He wanted Pac Man cupcakes...so I went to work using My Digital Studio. Here is how they cam out: It was so easy to do! I used the bottom of the Cupcake Punch layered with the Wide Oval Punch in MDS...and then simply filled it with color. They eyes come from the Owl Eyes. So cute! And the Pac

Hello Stampers -  Sorry for getting my post up so late this morning. We had a really busy night and I was just too exhausted! This weeks theme is ORGANIZATION. Hmm....that one stumped me...I could USE some organization, as I am so NOT. LOL So instead, I did a quick Halloween treat for Jacob's Class. We have a NO FOOD rule (bummer) for celebrations...so I decided to use the new 1" x 8" Cello

I found a super cute and fun idea to make for the girls on my team. We have a meeting this morning and we are going to stamp and eat and share, and eat....LOL. You get the idea. I always like to make a little something extra or have a give away ...just something to show how much I appreciate and adore these ladies. We have a lot of fun together! So anyway, back to the project. I used our new

Hello All... I have been working on getting some autumn-ish themed classes and projects together for October. And I didn't have to go far to find the perfect sets and paper to use. The Holiday Mini has it all! I have been having so much fun playing with the new set Gently Falling. It's a big set, with 12 stamps in it! It makes the prettiest cards and scrapbook pages!

In addition to the kids going back, my husband and I had to go back too since we both work in schools. It's been a long week getting back into the swing of it and adjusting to a routine again. But certainly no complaints! Just that working is cutting into my

Hello All - Getting ready for this hurricane that is headed our way. Everyone is running to the store, getting water, milk and batteries. It kind of cracks me up a little. I mean, really? Don't we already have those things around the house? I don't know, I've never been one to panic. Even more so now, that just last week before we knew this storm was coming, my smart hubby bought a generator.

Hello Stampers! Since we are all preparing for a hurricane and lots of rain...I thought I would pick an appropriate set today....Raining Flowers. This is a NEW stamp set and I haven't even had the chance to use it yet! I am savoring the last few days of summer and staying in my PJ's and stamping the day away. The kids go back Monday (in a hurricane no less) and I go back Tuesday. I am looking

It's Friday! And that means it's Blog Hop Day! This weeks theme is near and dear to my heart. Cupcakes! I was so excited when the theme was announced. Not only do I love to bake (and eat) cupcakes...we just visited the cutest cupcake shop on our recent vacation to Marco Island. Simply Cupcakes of Olde Marco is a delightful little shop that has delectable creations! And the store is PINK!

WOW! Every time I turn around I am learning something NEW about My Digital Studio! To call it a digital scrapbooking program seems unfair! It does SO much more! Yes, scrapbook pages and photo-books...in a variety of sizes...12x12, 8 1/2x11, 8x8, 6x6 and 5x5.... And cards in a ton of sizes too... and tags, and swatchbooks...and JOURNALS? Yes my friends. Journals. Gorgeous, awesome quality

Happy Saturday All! It's a gorgeous day here in CT. Cooler temps and drier air...nice! I hope you have a great weekend! Last week I promised a few more samples with Button Buddies. It is such a cute set, and awesome that it matches our buttons perfectly (in size and colors). So here are a few other samples I made with this set: Super Cute Piggy! Pool Party, Pretty in Pink, and some pearls

I had my first Christmas Card Club get together this past Tuesday. It was great having lots of happy Stampers in the house. I wanted to share the cards they made. Everyone loved them! Each month club members make 12 Christmas Cards (4 designs, 3 of each). So by December, they will have made 60 cards. All they have to do is address the envelopes (which are also included) and they are all set!

Today we had our Annual New Catalog Stamp Camp. We hold one every year when the new catalog is released. It gives our customers a chance to see a lot of new product and make 4 projects with all new stuff. We held it at my Church's Fellowship Hall, so we have plenty of space for all of our happy stampers!  Everyone had a great time and really liked all the projects we made. Here are some FUN

Well, after  GREAT week on Marco Island, we are home. Home Sweet Home. All that is missing is Bella. We will pick her up tomorrow from Canine Clubhouse. :) Can't wait to snuggle my girl. So on the flight home tonight, I pulled out the laptop and worked on some pages. Here is one that I just love because it's got a lot of FUN elements on it. I started with River Rock Cardstock in the background

Well, I am sunburned, so I am taking a break from the beach today.... so while the family is out in the sun,  I am sitting in the A/C working on a couple scrapbook pages. :) Yesterday, we went on this awesome Dolphin Excursion out of Marco Island Rose Marina. It was a 3 hour tour (sing along now...a three hour tour...). We saw over 20 dolphins! It was AMAZING. The kids (and adults) had a great

I love MDS!  I love that I can just grab my laptop and scrapbook my vacation while I am still ON vacation!  How cool is that? Here is a page I made today of the gorgeous beach we are staying on this week!  I am one of those people who easily gets behind on my pages. I just never seem to have the time to get it done. But I do have 15 minutes a day to crank out a page. And that is all this

That is the most I have done in a year! I just ordered

Well, I have been re-bitten by the MDS bug! OMG, I am having SO MUCH fun! I have always been a scrapbooker first, then stamper next. I adore all my stamps and inks and embellishments. But when SU came out with MDS a few years ago, I adored the ease, and the control over my projects. Well, as I mentioned in an earlier post, my friend Heather is an MDS genius! I have been spending some time this

Hello Stampers and Scrappers!I have been once again bitten by the MDS (My Digital Studio) bug. I have been seeing so many AWESOME pages and the new downloads SU! has every week are AWESOME. Father's Day was awesome around here! The kids and I made a special breakfast for Daddy...home made Cinnamon Rolls. We had never made them before, and it was a rocky start, but thanks to Jacob (my best baking

Yesterday I had a full house for my June Stamp Camp! It was so great to have the house full of happy stampers!I thought I would share the projects that we made with you! Everyone seemed to love them!This is a unique card, as the greeting part is actually a flap that flips up to reveal the greeting space. We used the Elegant Soiree Paper (soon retiring) and the Fun Flowers Die for the Big Shot.

Hey there...just wanted to pop in and share a clean, simple card. This is the Bold Blossom set that is in the Summer Mini Catalog. I love the crisp white and the contrast of the bright colors. I just popped up the little flowers with dimenstionals and added a rhinestone the the center of each one. The ribbon is Blushing Bride. Simple, clean and cute! It's going to be a HOT one here today!

My hands down favorite set in the catalog is The Open Sea. I just love it! The matching Nautical Designer Paper, and the cherry cobbler bakers twine all pair up to make awesome creations! And honestly, I don't

Every year, we say goodbye to dozens and dozens of products...stamps, accessories, papers....to make room for the new ones that will be coming in the next catalog. But once they are gone, they are GONE. And let me save you the time and money of shopping on eBay. You will NOT get a better price. You will pay MORE because once an item is retired, the value INCREASES (it's the ol' supply and demand

Today May 3rd, is Teacher Appreciation Day! I have been working in my stamp room on a project for Jacob's teacher that I think (hope!) will be meaningful and that she will enjoy. I saw somewhere a long time ago (on another blog...?) a clever idea for a journal. This is a special journal, because with it come a jar full of questions about teaching. The idea is that the teacher pulls one of these

Beginning in May, you can purchase this beautiful new set called Strength and Hope. It was designed by Stampin' Up! to benefit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. The proceeds from the sale of this set will be donated to fund breast cancer research. What a great cause! One of the perks of being a demonstrator is we get to pre order things a month before they go on sale. So I have had a little

Have you gotten your copy of the Summer Mini Catalog in the mail yet? It's got lots of fun new stuff it in! One of my favorite sets is The Open Sea. I really needed to add a masculine set to my inventory. I've got a gazillion floral sets but very few in the manly dept. So I snatched this one up on my first order! I should mention that the designer series paper is awesome too! So I sat down the

Here is a super cute and fun card! I had such fun making this one! Doesn't it look yummy??There is actually very little stamping on this card...just the greeting. I used a lot of Designer Paper on this one...both in Poppy Parade and Pear Pizzazz. I also used some coordinating Pear Pizzazz Seam Binding Ribbon across the middle. The cone is some Crumb Cake cardstock that I cut into the cone shape

Every month we get a magazine called Stampin' Success. It's another great perk of being a demonstrator. It's exciting to get it every month because it's loaded with stamping ideas and techniques. One of the techniques that caught my eye this month is the Mother of Pearl technique. Here is the card I made using it.Can you see the shimmer on the main image? That is the Mother of Pearl. Here is how

Are you sick of this die yet? I seem to use it on everything lately! I just love that t cuts out 3 flowers at once, and they look so beautiful layered together.In this card I cut them out in Very Vanilla, then sponged them in Crumb Cake. I then layered them together, and sponged the top flower with Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint (not sure if you can see the shimmer on it, but trust me, it's

The layer is Baja Breeze embossed using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder for the Big Shot. The image was inked

Here is a BRIGHT springy card for you today! I used the smaller of the two floral images in the Just Believe stamp set. I just inked it in Pear Pizzazz and stamped on Whisper White. I then used the bitty flower punch to add a few Poppy Flowers. The ribbon is Pear Pizzazz and the greeting is from the Level 2 Hostess Set in the Summer Mini Catalog, Something to Celebrate.

Today I reached for a set that I haven't used in ages! It's a hostess set called Punch Potpourri. It's got 4 beautiful images that coordinate with some of our most popular punches. I love how easy Stampin' Up! makes it to create beautiful projects. Coordinating stamps and punches is just another example of how our products are designed to work together. Here are the images in this set:The punches

I have faith that one day, it WILL be warm again. It's just taking an awfully long time. Sheesh! One step forward, 2 steps back. So while I am waiting for Spring to arrive, I am playing with some floral type sets and using lots of pinks and spring colors. Here is a simple, but pretty card that I made using the Just Believe stamp set. The card base is Melon Mambo, with a touch of Pretty in Pink.

The Occassions Mini Catalog is loaded with so many amazing products. I feel like I hardly have time to use them ALL. But one of my favorite is the FUN FLOWERS die for the Big Shot. Oh my GOSH! I LOVE LOVE LOVE these flowers. This die cuts out 3 flowers at the same time. They are all different sizes and shapes - perfect to use individually or layered together, as I did on this card.

I bought the Stampin' Up! Exclusive Candy Wrapper Die For the Big Shot last October. Well, I haven't used it much in the past. But I have a meeting with my team this weekend, and I wanted to make them each a little treat to show them how much I love them (they are awesome ladies!). So, I pulled out the die and got started playing with it. It's so cute! I fit some Hershey Kisses inside (cause you

This morning I gathered with my downline for a team meeting. What a fun way to start the day! It is so much fun when we all get together! I was happy to have 2 of my newest team members in attendance. We always stamp something at our meetings - after all, we are all there because we LOVE to stamp. Here are a few pics of the gals having fun stamping...This is Lori, she joined our group in November
