Thanks Buddy

Greg is such a great friend. He even made his challenge this week all about me! And here is what I did with it….

I decided to go very simple with this one. I started with a Soft Sky card base and I stamped the trio of flowers from my Simply Sent kit in Soft Sky [...]

I’m SO excited!

For those of you who know me, you know I’m singing like the Pointer Sisters!
Yesterday was such a great day. I got an email from Stampin’ Up! letting me know I’d been chosen to be a make & take helper at Leadership in Palm Springs in January! I’m so very pleased as I’ve applied to [...]

Okay’d by the Captain

So, Greg has posted a great challenge on his blog this week. I just had to try it out. And, better yet, he was here last night to give me thumbs up or down – and he told me it’d be okay for me to post it. Thanks dude.

I know, bad picture – I’m having [...]

Snow Scrappin’

This was a quick and fun page! This is a 6×6 page and it all started with my daughter’s picture. This is from WAY back (she is 7 now). I loved how the colours of her snowsuit popped on the snow background.
I started with a Bashful Blue 6×6 piece and using my cutter kit, [...]

A Late Challenge

Don’t get me wrong. I did the challenge I’m just late in posting it!
This week’s Ways To Use it Challenge on SCS was to use wood. Wood? You’ve got to be kidding, I just happen to have some wooden letters!

This was a quick project I made for my dad. He LOVES jelly beans. I started [...]

My Own Artisan Award Winner

A month back you may remember pictures of my Rubber Side Down dinner. Well, I ran my own Artisan Award (just like SU) and I’d love to post the 6×6 page done by the winner. Here it is:

The winner was Miwa Komori. All the entries I received were fabulous too it was hard to pick. [...]

Stampin’ Olympics?

It’s Canada vs the US, huh Pam? That was cute!
Yes, I was challenged by Pam at A Stamper’s Getaway to come up with something fun for the holidays. I was to use Greg’s sketch #25 and the colours of Real Red, Old Olive and Vanilla or Whisper White. Here it is!

I started with an Old [...]

And they just keep on comin’

Yep, those weekly challenges on SCS are a wee bit addictive, aren’t they? This week’s Technique challenge was to make a treat slider pouch. I knew exactly what to do…..

How much fun is this? When you pull the ribbon on the top, the popcorn will slide up!
I started with a 10 x 6 3/4″ [...]

What I Woke Up to Today

Nope, I’m not going to post a picture of my husband all huddled up in about 18 blankets shivering like a mad-man because he has a cold (but that is what I woke up to).
I’ll show you this….

This is from my kitchen window. It is the sun rising over Mount Baker (Washington State). Isn’t it [...]

Yet another challenge and a wee tutorial to boot!

This week’s Limited Supply Challenge was hard – NO RIBBON! But the cards are made for a great cause. Check it out. Here is my creation:

I started with a Mellow Moss card base and I mounted a large piece of Groovy Guava on the left. I’d stamped this in guava with the little [...]
