Waterfall Scrapbook made with Christmas Jingle Simply Scrappin Kit

Take a sneek peak at one of my up coming classes.

This is called a Waterfall Scrapbook.

You open the cover and pull in the tab and the pages flip out. It is super cute.

I will have this available for a "class to go" as well as a workshop at my home. The details will follow in the next day or two.

I just couldn't resist on more small picture.

Have you ever made a project and when it was done the only thing you can do is smile and think "this looks great"? That is what this has done for me today.

It is a gloomy day here in Ohio and this made me smile. I just want to keep creating but my children have other ideas.

Lattice Die

This card is made using the Sizzix Big Shot Die from Stampin Up it is called Lattice.

For those of you who have never made cards this is an example of how quick and easy it can be.

This is a 4 x 4 card (4 x 8 and I scored it at 4). The gray paper is cut to 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 and embossed with one of the Stampin Up Texture Plates. The whisper white and DSP are cut to layer with the Lattice die cut.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Thank you for checking out my blog. Have a great day.

Gotta Sneak in one more circle circus

Here is one more card I made with the Circle Circus Stamp Set.

So very simple and easy. The way it should be. Right!

This is a must have stamp set. It is great for all occassions, male and female.

More Circle Circus Samples

I love this card the idea came from the Stampin Sucess Magazine a magazine available to demonstrator.

We recreated it at the open house in July.

Let me introduce to the Circle Circus Stamp Set

I wasn't sure about this set at first but my Wonderful Sister said "are you kidding me you have to get that one". So of course I had to get it because when it comes to this kind of stuff she is always right.

Here are a few samples I made using Circle Circus.

I will have a few more for you tomorrow. Stay tuned.

simple Pull-out Card

Today I thought I would show you this simple card with a pull out tag.


This is how you make it.

Base: 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
Top DSP: 5 1/4 x 4
Fold one corner of the DSP 3/4 inch from the edge. Make 2 holes for the ribbon (ribbon goes through both layer of DSP, Not the base). Attach the DSP to the cardstock. Make a tag to insert and your done.

She how easy that was. Give it a try.
