Something about lining your envelopes...

that says you are pretty special!!!

I used the new envelope liner framelits that are in the new Holiday Catalog!

Sure was a blast stampin with some of my crafty friends at the Palouse Divide Lodge!

I was on a roll!

It had been awhile since I had made any cards...once I got started I was on a rollllllll!  What do you think?

 

 

Love, love, love the Washi Tape!!

I sponged ink on the dollies.  I wish the picture of this card was better. Maybe it's time for a new camera.

Cute, simple, card for someone special.

First Halloween card, with more Washi Tape and orange glitter!!

 



It's a starburst!

Next I started making cards!  I've been seeing lots of cards made using the starburst or sunburst technique. Love how this card turned out and the technique is sooo fun and easy too!

I used the Perfect Blend stamp set, the Modern Medley Designer Series Paper, and the new candy dots!  Pretty cute and I love this new stamp set!!



Playing with Paper Pumpkin

While at Palouse Divide Lodge I caught up on My Paper Pumpkin! I love the surprise every month when the pretty red box comes in the mail....

 This card set was from May. The card top left was the original design.  Love how you can take the supplies and make your own designs too!
 

Here is the project for June, a very cute mini scrapbook! 
 

This is what was in the red box in July. I used the supplies and made the card on the top left and a paper bag gift card holder 

Where has the time gone?!

WOW! I just realized its been awhile since I have done a blog post.  Summer has been kind of crazy, but last weekend I was at the Palouse Divide Lodge with some of my fun craftin' friends.  Had a blast and did lots of stampin, too!. 

Soooooo, I promise to do several blog posts starting on Monday, (got to get some batteries in the camera so I can take pics).
