Administrative Assistant/ Secretary's Day

I'm blessed with having a wonderful team to work with!  
 I made these 3 cards for our office ladies that do such a wonderful job keeping us together!
 A school is a very hectic place when you work in the office and we appreciate everything they do for us!
 Each of these cards is one piece of cardstock folded in half so the students have lots of room to write messages or just sign their names.  The Thank You comes from the 2017 Sale-A-Bration release.  I'm going to use this one a LOT! It's so pretty and has many uses.

Eastern Palace Suite - Preview

 I only played with the stamps on this sample, and have been working on the die cuts.  It's just so pretty!

There are so many options you can use with this stamp set!

 I also have two of the new In-Colors debuting in the new catalog:  Fresh Fig, and Tranquil Tide.  I like them both so very much!

NOTE:  You'll notice a lot of duplicating on the list below.  Let me explain.  I showed the stamp set alone as I used in the samples above.  Then the stamp set BUNDLE with the dies.  10% off is always a good deal for a stamp and die set!
THEN I added the PREORDER bundles which customers can preorder between May 1st and May 31st, as a special preview before the new catalog goes LIVE!

On Stage Swaps April 2017

I had all my swaps finished,  packaged and ready, and there I go, falling again!  It's so frustrating.  BUT I am fortunate that my fellow stampers took my swaps along.  Can't wait to see what they come back with!  I always love swapping... so many awesome ideas out there!

One of the ideas I've used in 2 card classes.  October, when I was subbing for my upline, Kathy... and in January with my own club on request.  I really LOVE this design!
AND... here are the 'new' designed cards I put together for this swap. 

There are so many variations you can do with this sample!  Choose any 4 embossing folders, and cut the strips at 3/4 inch.  Use your grid paper to keep them straight!  Cut all the hearts in red, of course! 
Cut the sentiments in any color you wish!  I used Elegant Eggplant, Emerald Envy, Bermuda Bay (of course!!), Real Red, etc...  so many choices!  I also added the little bow/butterfly die cut in the red glimmer paper to add some sparkle.

Easter Boxes for Treats

This is another one of my Pinterest finds.  It was SO cute, I've made 3.  One as a sample to play around with, and two more for co-workers.

 I used thick white card stock for the box - it holds up better than the regular stamping whisper white.
I also used different coloring techniques on the pieces - water coloring with the pencils and either the aqua painter, or blender pen.  I also used the blender and aqua pens with the ink pads.  So many options!  I also used the Wink of Stella clear brush to add some sparkle to just about each piece.  Rhinestones were the perfect amount of sparkle on the center of each flower!

You will need to cut 7 grass pieces from the framelits and trim each to fit the sides of the box.  The piece for the top doesn't need trimming.   Below I've given a few different colors of green cardstock that would work great for the grass pieces.  I used Emerald Envy and Cucumber Crush for my pieces.
