Sorry I have been gone for a while.

Hello Everyone, Sorry I have been gone for a while. I have been very busy. I started a new job and I will be working a lot more than I am used to. Once I get use to the schedule I will be back more regularly.

Here is one of the cards we will be making at the 10-10-20 Holiday Workshop on Sunday. I am very excited because I have a large group attending.

This is a great simple and easy card. I used the Sparkly & Bright Stamp Set and the Stamp-a-magjig. The Stamp-a-majig is a must have especially if you can not stamp straight like me.

Have a great day and as always feel free to ask me any questions.

Ornament Punch

Look at what you can make with the ornament punch. This is not my original idea but it was so cute I had to try it.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Have a Happy Halloween !!!

Holiday Card

I was doing what I do way to much of "Surfing the internet looking for new stamping ideas", when I stumbled upon this awesome blog called Creations by Patti.

I just love her blog she has some great ideas. Here is one that I scraplifted:

Halloween Card & Scrapbooking Sunday

Hello Everyone,

Today we are making 2 page 12x12 Halloween scrapbook pages at my home. The ladies that attended were given a make and take card, they need to take it home and assemble it.

Here is a picture of what they will be making.

I wanted to let you in on a tip that you may or may not be aware of. I do not own the stamp set Eat Drink & Be Scary, but I do have MY DIGITAL STUDIO. I simply went into My Digital Studio opened a card, picked a stamp set, clicked on the spider image and moved it to my card (of course I added a bunch of designs as to not waste paper) and printed it. Can it get much easier.
