It's hot and humid outside yet I'm making Christmas card while listening to Willie sing "Help me make it through the night". I should be playing Christmas music but I love Willie and the music he sang during the 1970's and 1980's. This card is for the Christmas in July class scheduled for Wednesday, 29 July 2009. I have a couple of openings so if you live in the Northwest… Read More »

I am very excited to feature the stamp set Peace Within from the 2009-2010 Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog. This set will definitely be one of your favorites because it can lend itself to any occasion. I've purposely left off any type of sentiment so that I can tailor to fit as I need it. This card uses the new In-colors Rich Razzleberry and Melon Mambo. The Designer Series… Read More »

I finally received my Medallion background stamp. I had been saving the Nouveau Chic Designer Series Paper for that special stamp and decided to use the Medallion background stamp with it. I am not very happy with the way it is stamping. I can't get it dark enough nor a clear dark image and I was using basic black. I tried sanding the stamp, using the brayer to make sure the… Read More »
Today's card is for the Christmas in July Stamp Class scheduled for Wednesday, 29 July 2009. I still have a couple of openings, so if you are interested and live in the Northwest Arkansas area, shoot me an e-mail. This card was cased from the one in the catalog (page 34). I changed a couple of things: distressed the edges, eliminated the ribbon and the 2nd sentiment was stamped inside the card.… Read More »
I was putting a stamp set together for a Christmas Card I am making today and I thought that I'd never shared the idea of how I line up my sentiment stamps so that they are straight on the wooden blocks. I take a ruler (I used a quilter's ruler) and draw a faint line across the bottom of the wood block. I draw the line right at the point… Read More »
At class today, the ladies were talking about the need for Sympathy Cards. We decided to have a class in September that would be Sympathy cards inclusive. That got me thinking that I haven't made one in a while and the problem is that when you really need one you are not in the mood to make one. So I decided I would at least try to make one every… Read More »
Today's card is for the Late Night Stampers weekly challenge #29. The challenge is to make a pink and black card. I decided to drag out my retired rub-ons. This one is called Cherished Memories and retired from the last catalog. Did you noticed that I did not use one little piece of pattern paper. That was so unusual for me! To download the card instructions: Download Pink & Black… Read More »
