Bachelorette Invites

I am so excited I got the chance to make invitations for a friend's bachelorette party! There are so many different ideas on Pinterest these days but when I saw this corset style one I knew it was the winner.

 

Just another project that I couldn't have done without framelits! I used the largest heart that is scalloped to make the top and the oval framelits to cut out the sides.

 

 

This inside pulls out for all the party details -- it is so easy making your own invitations on MDS (Hello, free 30 day trial people!!). I was able to make the project just the right size before I started typing so I didn't have to mess around while printing (I love that feature of MDS).

 

 

 

Just a few more days before the Retired List comes out so stay tuned!! You won't want to miss any of the deals. I got a sneak peek Saturday night of the new catalog and I get preorder stuff on Wednesday and I can't hardly wait!! I love this time of year with Stampin' Up! There is always so much going on. Don't forget about the Color Refresh going on!!

 

And even better -- get more for your money right now! Either join the SU fun or host a party!!

 





Big Shot Club

Another mini club starting in May is the Big Shot Club -- this was a favorite last go around! May's club features the milk carton die. I never would have thought that you could do anything else but milk cartons with it but that couldn't be further from the truth!

 

It is hard to see in the picture but the bunny is actually open on the top -- perfect for treats. The box in the middle is made by putting 2 milk cartons together and the roof on the bird house opens up. But you really need to sign up for the club to learn all the tricks for these projects!! Email me ASAP to reserve a spot or check out my website by clicking HERE. Here are all the details of the club:

Don't Miss the Card Buffet!

The cards are half done! I have 8 of the 16 cute and easy cards ready for the upcoming card buffet! You won't want to miss out on this event -- come either weekend or both to really stock up on some great cards.

 I love how easy it is to make a purse with the Top Note die and the DSP Patterned Paper Stack. Just change out the sentiment for any occasion -- the Curly Cute stamp set goes great with this card! And we can all use a variety of birthday cards on hand. The cupcake punch and stamp set, Create a Cupcake, have so many uses and is a great addition to your collection.

Never been to a card buffet?! YOU ARE MISSING OUT! Here are all the details --

Win a Trip to San Diego!

I really enjoy getting the chance to make cards for stamp set of the month club. This month's set was Oh, Henry from the mini catalog. This cute little elephant was easy to stamp on DSP and cut out, or watercolor, or use another stamp to get texture! And there are so many sentiments in the set to adapt to any occasion.

Members of the club get these 3 cards plus the cut cardstock to make the card on the right at home and the Oh, Henry stamp set. If they weren't a fan of the set or already had it, they could substitute another set that they liked....delivered to their door...all for just $30!

Make sure to order this cute set before the catalog ends in May!

There are so many great specials going on at Stampin' Up! right now too! Fabric Frenzy started today...50% fabric....that is crazy!

Plus a chance to win a trip for two to San Diego!!!! You can enter to win and get all the details about the trip and the new This and That line by going HERE!

Fancy Folds Club

I'm getting really excited for this upcoming club starting in May -- Fancy Folds! These are the first month's projects. 

I love the summery 'flip flop' card. And since this club starts right before graduation, the spring fold graduation hat will be perfect! You can RSVP for the Fancy Folds Club by clicking HERE. Here are all the details:

Our New Stamper Has Arrived!

Our newest stamper arrived last week and we are very excited and blessed to have her here with us! She will be well taken care of in our Stamping Aunties group of demos :) Here is Georgia --

 

I have a quick little project I put together using some scraps. Closet organizers for Georgia! I saw a lot of these on Pinterest when I was looking at nursery organization and I had to make my own. I used the 1" circle punch to round the corners and punch the circle. Then just cut a slit from the corner so I could hook it on the rod. I love the Big Shot letter & number dies to do little things like this...so quick and you never have to worry about running out of letters like you do with stickers from a store!

 



 

P.S. - This is definitely not all the clothes this girl has :)

 

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to get any Sale-a-bration orders in -- just 5 days left!!!!!



Happy Belated Valentine's Day

I meant to get these projects posted before Valentine's Day but these could be adapted to lots of different occasions with the fun Oh, Whale stamp set!

I used the Two Tags die and the coordinating clearlit die for the whale stamp set to make these treats for Charlea to take to daycare. And nothing is complete for a daycare treat without a googly eye! The gusseted bags that were carried over from the holiday mini catalog are really easy to work with -- and a great value! I put a cupcake in a plastic cup so it would sit flat and they fit perfectly. The rose red seam binding is so easy to tie knots with too!

We've also been busy getting ready for baby #2 these last couple of weeks...only 2 1/2 more weeks until I'm due. I wanted to make something to give all the nurses & doctors at the hospital. 

I used the Petite Purse die to create these fun little baby bags. I wanted to use up some scraps to cover the tops of the purses and the pockets are made with the modern label punch. And of course it wouldn't be complete without filling it with some raspberry hershey kisses!
