Season to Season Wreath Project
October 29, 2015
Melissa stopped by yesterday afternoon to pick up her Stampin' Up! order from our October Stamp Club meeting. I was watching this video when she walked in the door (carrying a UPS/Stampin' Up! package ~ thank you, Melissa) which turned out to be perfect because the wreath was in her order! I was listening to the video because I wanted to make my wreath this weekend and, funny, so does she! The only problem is we will be making our wreaths in two different locations ~ it would be such fun to make them together!!!! Here's the video and you can find the kit and stamp set on page 6 in the Holiday Catalog. (Hoping to have mine finished so that I can show you next week some time!)

Wonderland
October 26, 2015
This card was my swap card for my October Team Meeting ~ I think I showed you all the others in the swap. This stamp set, Wonderland, is lovely (not sure about the antlers but I am sure someone has a great idea ~ I'll be keeping an eye out for that idea!) and you can find it on page 23 in the Holiday catalog.
Melissa's beautiful sunburst...
October 25, 2015
Melissa Burroughs sent me a picture recently and I thought I would share it with you this morning. She is a talented, and consistent, stamper and a member of one of my stamp clubs. We had used this technique a year or so ago (sorry, I don't remember exactly when) and I love what she did with it. Thanks so much for sharing your pretty card, Melissa!
Shaker Cards Kit
October 24, 2015
Stampin' Up! has included a PROJECT KIT in the Holiday Catalog that will provide you with a fun afternoon with family members. That's what happened last Saturday afternoon in the Studio when my team members got together to make cards with the To You & Yours Kit (top of page 4 in the catty ~ 18 cards). There were lots of smiles, laughter and coordinated efforts to make the cards below. The kit would make a super 'Girl's Night Out' holiday get-together!
