Stampin' Up! Demonstrator

I have been a hobbyist Stampin' Up! demonstrator for a little over a year now.  I want to share with my fellow crafty peeps the wonderful and quality products from Stampin' Up!

Stampin' Up! released their new annual catalog at the beginning of June.  The catalog is full of bright and fun new colors, excellent ideas to duplicate and alter to make your own, and there are tons of new stamp and die bundles with endless possibilities.  Check it out for yourself.
Thank for reading.

Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #176

Today I made a card layout based on the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.  I made it for Easter and from My Creative Time products.  I love the way it turned out. Thanks to Freshly Made Sketches for enticing me to use products I haven't used before.

This is my Easter card.  Love the way it turned out.  Love my MCT products.

Card Class with Lisa

Made some cards with my good friend, Lisa, at her La Petite Paperie or her monstrous craft room with endless supplies. We had great conversation and made some cards and a gift bag as well.  Thought I would share.

First off, I love this one.  I need to work on coloring and shading, but these party animals will bring a smile to anyone's face.

Second was the bright and fun banner card.  I have to make birthday cards almost always as they are the only cards I tend to give away.

Then there was this cute Easter card, maybe my mom will get it, or whoever makes Easter dinner, then it is a well deserved card, ;)

Lastly we made this card and gift bag, this will probably go to my dad as he has a love of cars.

I really enjoyed my card night.  I am in a creative mood lately, so I have to keep going with it and squeeze it in where I can find the time.  

Thanks for looking,

MCT Designer Challenge and Milk Carton Die

I am in love with the new MCT Milk Carton Die, have made four in one day.  I decided to make one for the MCT challenge. 

I followed the photo and color inspiration for the challenge. These cute boxes are so easy to make and look great no matter what you decorate them with.

Here are the others I played around with.  Don't they look great with the simplicity of a pattern paper, tag, and ribbon?

This last one I whipped up in minutes for my bday niece, not the best picture as I was running last minute.  

I am so happy with this die and can see me making multiples of these to just give happy gifts to those I care about.

Thanks for looking,

Latte Love

Today's inspiration came from Teri Beri's Creations. When I saw her post way back in September I knew who I wanted to recreate it for, one of my best, coffee drinking friends, Belinda.  It was meant to be a 40th birthday surprise, but I became extremely busy, so then Christmas, right? Nope, still really busy. I finally had a little time and my daughter had a hair appointment with Belinda, perfect timing, and it happened to her anniversary and she was upset about being out of coffee creamer, again, perfect timing.

Belinda loved it, has thanked me several times and even posted it on facebook. I love surprising my friends with little gifts. 





I used several MCT products. 
                           Lowercase Fun Dies
                              used for the U
                           Heart to Heart Love Frame Dies (NEW)
                              for the hearts and love heart
                           Just a Little Note to Say...
                              for the square bubble sentiment which I stamped in sections
                           Stitched Square Speech Bubbles
                              for the sentiment
                           All You Need is Coffee
                              for the latte

I had a lot of fun getting to use my MCT products, they have been neglected too long!
