HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATT!

2009-04-18T14:50:00.002-04:00

WE spent a lovely day at Chuck E cheese getting tons of tickets with which he got candy and toys for. Then off to a baseball game where he did an awesome job throwing from left field to home plate.

It's been a long time.....

card for A Muse home page contest for Dec

2008-11-21T22:18:00.003-05:00

This is the card I made for the A Muse Addicts Message Board Home page contest for December...I just love the moose and there is a great story to go along with it. You see, one year on girl's weekend away, a friend said in all her travels there over all the years, she had never seen a moose. We see a sign on the Kacamagus highway that there have been 48 fatalities with collisions with moose. Here we were in Moose mating season. . .
oh the memories...

The new Spring Summer 2008 Collection will debut in a few short weeks. In anticipation of its arrival, Stampin' Up! produces a Preview Brochure. These brochures were mailed on November 15th. Customers should be receiving them soon!

One of the perks of being a demonstrator is a sneak peek of new products. Demonstrators were able to view the Preview brochure. I am not supposed to share the link to the actual file until December 1, when it is published to the Stampin' Up! website. In the meantime, here are some descriptions for you.

Heart flowers and grass at the elephants feet. Wrapped around the top of head reads "to an unforgettable friend"; a sentiment stamp "To someone with a very big heart!"; a small 9 petaled flower with a heart in the center, looks to fit in the 3/4" circle punch; a tag that fits the small tag punch, three lined: HAPPY then two hearts, VALENTINE'S, three hearts DAY; a butterfly with heart shaped wings with a trail with the words love you floating behind; a stamp two line "thank you"

the RAT!

2007-09-08T11:03:00.000-04:00

I was out mowing with the hand mower, my dear husband's job, but he claims there was too much stuff in the area, so when it got to be thigh high, I decided that I had to do something.
He opens the sliding door and there I am mowing and he yells "What are you doing?" Duh. Then he says "Look out for the RAT!" What? " There's a huge RAT! " What? So he points and yells "The RAT! It's coming near you!" What rat? We don't have rats! So I stop mowing and look. It's a chipmunk~ brown and with the bushy tail and the stripes... Just goes to show the difference between someone brought up in an affluent neighborhood in the burbs, and someone brought up rurally....

Having fun stamping!

2007-09-07T22:10:00.000-04:00

Tuesday I am going to teach some new techniques on using punches creatively. We are going to be making 6 different cards for fall birthdays. We will be using the new corner punch and ovals with a color scheme for autumn! Who wouldn't love to get a card with more mustard and chocolate chip with a side of really rust?

Want to have your own exciting class? or prefer just to get the supplies and make your own? Let me know!

WELCOME
