Felt Flower Scrapbook Page


The last project we did for the accessory club is this scrapbook page.


It not only incoporates felt flowers, but also a hat pin and half pearls from the Pretties Kit.

More Flurries

Here is the gift bag that I designed for October accessory club. These bags like this are so simple, yet so cute. It is easy to move from Christmas to birthday to just because...

Monkeying Around

My niece, Kaytee, needed a monkey shirt for school tomorrow... Something to do with red ribbon week. I think the theme is get the monkey off my back... Anyway, Kayla appealed to me to stamp a sock monkey on the front of a white t-shirt for her. I tossed and turned all night last night worrying that my stamping technique on fabric wouldn't be good enough. So, I found this adorable monkey on a piece of fabric. I cut it out and adhered it to the shirt... I thought it came out so good that I had to post it!

Felt Flowers & Flurries

Hey gang! Stampin' Up! has some wonderful new felt snowflakes in the mini catalog. I am featuring them and the felt flowers in the accessory club for October. Here is a picture of the card that I designed using the snowflakes. I especially like the color combination. So unusual for Christmas!

Hurricane Ike

Well, life is now back to normal. We finally got internet and cable back yesterday. It has been almost a month... So, this is the reason for absolutely no posts for some time!

We were so much luckier than others in our area. We had some minor damages... But we are safe and still have our home! I hope that anyone reading this that was within the reaches of Ike faired as well as we did.

We did not evacuate until Saturday afternoon after the storm. The only reason we evacuated was Eric was recovering from bronchitis and was really having a tough time in the heat.

The storm was an awesome sight. It was scary... But the sheer power of what was happening was awe inspiring. Don't let the news reports of what a hurricane looks like fool you. They all show the wind blowing extremely hard, but straight... All in one direction. We stood on the porch at our house during the wee hours of the morning while the storm was at its worst. I felt like I was in a washing machine! The wind was churning like the water in my washing machine!

We did get some damage to some of our electronic equipment due to power surges. My scanner/printer was one of the things that suffered! So, I will start getting some pictures taken of projects I have done since the storm to post!

Happy Stampin'!

Convention 2008

Hey all! Convention has been an absolute blast! The new catalog is AWESOME! We have some great new stamp sets, but the accessories are the best! I've learned so many awesome ideas. I can't wait to share all of it with you guys. Being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and having the opportunity to meet and share with all these awesome people that have the same love that I have. Of course it's not all work, we do take a little time to have fun. This is a picture of me and several of my Stampin' Up! buddies. I have really enjoyed being in Salt Lake City. But, I am really looking forward to getting home and seeing my hubby. AND starting to put some of these great new ideas to use!

Happy Stampin'!
