Club Card

WOO HOO!! I had an awesome club on Saturday. We had so much fun talking and stamping. Yeah!! That's what it's all about. Well here is the card that we did for club. I have to admit that I changed very little from the original design. It is NOT my design... I did change a few things but not much!

I wanted to highlight the stamps that are on sale. This stamp set, Party Hearty is 20% off with a $20 purchase! WOW!! Thank you, Stampin' Up! Anyway, the ladies loved it! They will be getting an email from me shortly about a bonus project! Ah, the perks of being in a club! I created a box for them to hold a bundle of one of their projects. It's stinkin' cute!

Want to join a club? There are many different types, depending on your interests... we can have a scrapbook club, a marker club, a watercolor crayon club, the list goes on and on... let me know what your interests are and we can create a club to suit your needs :)

Decor Elements Thanks

Wow, this tile turned out beautifully! I took a 13 x 13 tile and rubbed our Season of Thanks on it, cutting off the flourish at the bottom and rubbing it on the side! I was going to put a ribbon or something on it but... there's no room!! Total cost for this project - About $16.00! I love it!! I have done a few other decorations too - the total cost not going over $30.00 I am going to take a picture of it - It's a shadow box with the same saying... I filled the box with "fall decorations" but... you can totally change the "theme" of the shadow box with other Holiday decorations as well! Wait until you see it... I will post it soon but please promise me you won't tease me on how crooked it is... I accidently touched part of it to the glass and it stuck better than I expected... Usually they are so FORGIVING when you put them on the wall, tiles and other materials to rub on... I didn't know how well it would stick to glass!!

I posted this picture - wait - maybe I didn't... LOL!! If I posted this picture, then I did it a long time ago. I wasn't sure what I was going to do with this wall... I put the Live Every Moment in because I wanted that where it was. Finally, I put in the Organic Outlines... just the other day! hehe... At any rate, this wall is complete! I love the way it turned out!

Decor Elements Crazy

Well, last night I got a wild hair and started playing with my Decor Elements! Some of them I have had for a while. Some of them I just recently received. At any rate, I am having a blast! If you notice, my kitty is in the doorway! That little turkey will do anything to get into the picture :) I am surprised the kids didn't come down... they always know when Mom has a camera too! Isn't that always they way... They either only talk to you when you are on the phone or they come out of the wood work when you break out the camera!

Over the next few days, I am going to post even more of these fabulous vinyl clings up on my blog. I am on a Decor Elements kick right now! WOO HOO!! I put one on a tile that you just have to see! It's perfect for the holidays coming up! You don't want to miss that. Check back tomorrow for that one!

Ok, I have to post just one more picture. This has GOT to be my favorite Decor Elements that we have so far! It's so elegant! My family LOVES having it in the dining room. The kids both looked up at the table this morning and said, "Oh wow Mom! That's cool!" They are 9 & 4!! LOL!! At any rate, you can only get this one as a "Hostess gift" with a $350 show or more! Want to earn one?? Give me a call! We will get that on your wall soon!!

Happy Accidents!

So, I have been on a tile kick these past few days. I have 3 stamp sets that I have been dying to put ink on. The one featured yesterday, the one featured today and the one featured tomorrow. The one featured yesterday was called A Cardinal Christmas. Today's featured stamp set is Flores Suaves out of our Celebrando Creatividad catalog!

Now, my plan was to make a "small" tile just as shown with these two stamped images, coloring them and putting ribbon around them... Well, I put the tile in the oven. I usually set a tile and go back to working on other tiles... well, I forgot this tile in the oven... for almost 4 hours! Now, while I don't recommend leaving the house (like I did) - I do like the result of this. It's very shabby chic. It looks distressed and worn... I like it! This tile is, of course, not done yet! It needs a ribbon and a tag... I just had to show it off!

Tiles...

Wow! I have to say that making tiles has got to be one of my favorite things to make for Craft Fairs. They are usually very easy and very beautiful. However, I tried something different. Usually when you make a tile, you always use a solid or bold stamp. You don't usually use outline stamps because they will look nekkid when you are done.

Well, I stumbled upon something interesting. I found a way to COLOR outline stamps!! Would you like to learn how?? I bet you would! Come to one of my tile classes this month (see my Stampin' Up! website) or I will have ONE class next month! These tiles make beautiful gifts for Christmas!

What do you think? Do you like it? I like it! *giggles* Tomorrow, I will post a "happy accident" that happened today.
