Christmas Lane Mini Step book

Hi!  I wanted to share my latestest mini book I created. I found a mini scrapbook at a local store that was made with paper bags in this same style. I knew I could recreate it with card stock and The Christmas Lane Simply Scrappin Kit.  The kit make fast work of decorating this book. Just take the self-adhesive die-cuts and add them to your pages. Nice, Easy and FAST.   Love it. 

The cover was cased from the holiday mini page 26. The card with the candy cards was to cute not to reproduce.   Hope you like the book.

Gift Card Holders

Hello! I have been busy making gift card holder for an up coming craft fair. Last year I sold a bunch of them.  For this card I made the white cover that slips over the pool party card that has a small pocket at the bottom for a gift card or money.  Color used Pool Party,  Lucky limeade and Wisteria Wonder. 

This is a quick and easy gift card holder to make.  Let me know if you want directions. I'm happy to share.

Got a good gift card holder idea? I would love to see it. I am always looking for new ways to make gift card holders.

 Hello!  I am always on the look out for a cool fun fold card and this one is no exception.  It folds up like a star. Opens up to this fun layered looking triangle.  I have to work on the link for the directions. What I have written down does not work.

3x3 MINIS

Hello! here are some quick cards I made for a friend the other day.  She love the mini cards.
Me too!!

Button Buddies Stamp Clubs

Hello!  Here is one of my first cards made with the new  Button Buddies.  The little pig is so cute. I don't think you can tell from the photo but I heat embossed the pig with melon mambo embossing powder.    I love the little sparkle this adds.  The bottom of the front is stamped with circle circus then embossed with the square lattice folder. 

NEW STAMP CLUB!!  I have need a couple  more people to start another stamp Club.

What is Club All About? Here is a great way to build up your Stamp/Scrapbook and Accessory collection a little each month, while staying on a reasonable monthly budget.



How Does it Work? By joining my Stamp Club you agree to purchase a minimum of $25.00 (before tax and shipping) each month for a 6 month period. You can choose products from the current Idea Book & Catalog or the mini catalog. You will be placed with 5 other Stampers to form a club. One time during the 6 month period you will be the Hostess and receive the Hostess benefits shown in the catalog. That means that you will receive your choice of $25.00 Hostess dollars in free stamps or accessories. This may increase and also earn you an item at 50% off based on the monthly club sales. During your Hostess month you can choose to collect outside orders and increase your Hostess free potential. I will take care of all the ordering.


Club Member Only Perks: During your Club Membership there will be special offers, only available to Club Members.

When Will I be the Hostess? The first person to sign up will be the first Hostess, the second will be the second Hostess and so on.

When Do I Order? The start date will be determined once a club is formed with 6 stampers. Your order will be due by the 1st of each month. So you will want to mark your calendars so you do not forget. You can call or email me your order. You can pay with MasterCard, Discover or Visa.

How do I get my Order? You will need to come pick up your order. I will let you know when the orders are in, and you just let me know when you want to come by. If you want to wait till your Stamp Club day to pick it up that is totally fine ? If you choose to get together 6 friends and do a long distance club that way, the order can be delivered to the hostess and you can get the order from her. If you choose to be put with a long distance club that I put together, the club order will initially come to me and then I will package up each one individually with the stamped club projects for that month and mail them to you. You will be responsible for the shipping cost to get your order from me to you. This should be a minimal cost depending on what you order each month and can also have a few months sent together.

Can a Group of my Friends be in our own Club? Definitely yes, if you want to be in your own group that is so much fun to do. In fact if you set it up this way, you can decide if you want the orders to be delivered to the same person each month, or each Hostess. Let me know if you want to do it this way and we can work out the details. This is also an excellent way to do Stamp Club if you live out of state.

How Do I get Started? That's easy! Just let me know you are interested and I will place you in the current club! I will let you know as soon as the club is filled and we will get started.


Please note: I currently have a list of Stampers interested in joining Stamp Club if you would like to participate. You will receive the current catalog (if you don't have one already) once the club is complete.

I hope you will consider joining the club. It is a great way to get all the great goodies that Stampin Up has to offer. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
