Here are the five card samples for my next Stamp-a-Stack. It is scheduled for Sunday, March 13th at 2PM.
You can make as many of each card as you like! As always, the cards are $1 each and include the envelope. The greetings shown on each card can be changed to fit your needs.
Please RSVP by March 4th (that's this Friday!) and let me know which cards you'd like to make and how many of each. I will need to order some extra card stock this time around, so I don't want to cut it too close on shipping times.

2. Stamped with Artistic Etchings - base is Sahara Sand.
3. Stamped with Simple Snowflake - base is Bashful Blue.

SALE-A-BRATION PARTY at 7PM
Normally, BCB is at 7PM, but tonight I'm hosting a Sale-A-Bration Party at that time. We'll all be making three projects using stamps that are FREE this time of year! You've gotta' love free!!! How can you get these freebies? You can pick one free product with every $50 you spend on products from our Idea Book & Catalog or the Occasions Mini Catalog. There is no limit to how many free products you can earn!
This is also a great time of year to host your own workshop. You get exclusive benefits as a hostess, free Sale-A-Bration products with your own order, plus a free Sale-A-Bration product when your workshop is $300 or more. Contact me to book a date.
Let me know if you can make it tonight (give me a call!) so I will be sure to have enough materials prepared for everyone.
Here is the January piece for my Seasonal Frame series. It is made with the Ice Cream Parlor DSP & Quick Accents Pack that is featured in our Sale-a-Bration catalog. (Sale-a-Bration starts on Janury 25th this year!) It is full of flowers and cheery colors. I had to get a bit creative to make it look wintry! I think it turned out well.
The colors used are Pacific Point, Marina Mist, Bashful Blue, Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Pretty in Pink, Pink Pirouette, Old Olive, Peach Parfait (InColor) and Pumpkin Pie.
I used a couple of retired sets for the stamped snowflakes and some words. The cute little penguin is from Every Little Bit. "January" comes from the Full Calendar set.
A couple squares have Moonlight Smooch Pearlized Accent Ink on them. The snowflake on the top right is painted in Smooch, as well as the white circle in the bottom row. It really made it shimmer!
I am considering doing this as a cyclical class, meaning that I will just keep doing these frames all year, every year and you can dive into the series at any time. If you are interested in joining us, please let me know.
Happy New Year! This is my first post of 2011, and the first post with my new PC! Prayers and positive vibes are still welcomed and needed for my old hard drive.
Here is this month's card for Birthday Card Bonanza. We'll start at 7PM tomorrow night, Friday, January 7th. This card features Nature Walk, a new stamp set in our awesome new Occasions Mini Catalog. There is a lot of watercoloring and sponging going on with this card, so be prepared!
Let me know how many cards you'd like to make. You can use any greeting I have available, in case you need cards for occasions other than a birthday.
The cost is just $1 for each card you make, including the envelope.
Here is this month's BCB card! I copied the idea from my online stampin' friend, Marisol.
$1 per card, including envelope. Let me know how many you'd like to make. The snowman's hat can be Old Olive (shown), Pretty in Pink, or Pacific Point. You choose!
I will be SO very happy when I get my computer back!!!
At long last, here are the four card for the Christmas Card Stamp-a-Stack, scheduled for November 28th at 2PM. That's the Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend!
Cards are $1 each, plus the cost of your stamp set, and occasionally a needed accessory.
The first card is for those of you who can't quite manage to get your cards mailed in time. It's a Happy New Year card! The card color is Pacific Point and the set is Every Little Bit. This set has 28 adorable little stamp images (I love the puppy!!!) for many seasons and reasons. It can be found on page 65 of the IB&C. With tax, S&H, cost for the wood set is $46.59. For clear mount (not including the block) it's $32.60.
The second card uses Bells & Boughs from the Holiday Mini. The card is Crumb Cake with Cherry Cobbler. You get to emboss this one! It's hard to tell in the photo, but the image is gold embossed. This set is $23.27 for wood mount, and $17.44 for clear mount.
The third card uses Come to Bethlehem. You can find it on page 43 of the IB&C. The card is Crumb Cake with Night of Navy stamping and accents. Cost for this set is also $23.27 for wood mount, or $17.44 for clear mount.
The final card is made with two purples that look so rich together: Elegant Eggplant and Perfect Plum. I actually used those colors on my Christmas cards a couple years ago. The main image is Simple Snowflake, one of our single-stamp sets found on page 20 of the IB&C. Cost for this stamp is just $9.27. You'll also need to purchase the Basic Rhinestones that are in the center of each snowflake. The sheet has 150 self-stick jewels on it in three sizes (plus three strips for borders). I used the largest size on the sample, but you can also use the other sizes if you make more than 10 of this card. It's up to you. Cost for the sheet is $5.78. So, if you got the stamp and one sheet of rhinestones, the cost would be $15.05.
I will prepare all the materials you need, including mounting wood sets. (If you choose clear, you MUST bring your own blocks or order some with your set). You just come to stamp and assemble your cards. Cards must be ordered in multiples of 10.
RSVP by noon on Tuesday, November 9th. I know it's short notice - I apologize! :o(
WOW I am having issues with computers lately!!! The motherboard on our PC is fried, so that's a very sad thing. Please say a little prayer for my hard drive, particularly my "My Pictures" file!!! I am currently using the laptop, which often hates me and will not co-operate. That has been the case this morning, but I finally got it to go online.
So, without further ado, here are the cards for tonight!
Same as always: $1 per card, including the envelope. Let me know how many of each you'd like to make. We start at 7PM tonight, Friday, November 5th.
