Still More So Cool

 Yes, I said I was done with this kit, but yesterday i sat down and made six more things.

Now I really must out it away.

More PP 4/21 So Cool

More fun with So Cool kit...

Paper Pumpkin Alternative

 I finally came up with an alternative to this month's "So Cool" kit that I thought was worth sharing.

 I used the negative strip from the included silver glitter shapes and three of the stickers we were given. I then added some cardstock, a strip of printed paper and a few embellishments and I had a slimline card that I really like. 

I have a wonderful lady that hosts my nighttime card classes in her home and I gave it to her in our Paper Pumpkin Club meeting last night. 

This should be enough inspiration for you to create your very own but if you want one exactly like this one I have a few little kits available. The kit is $3 and will come prestamped (The stamps I used were not SU stsmps) and will include everything I added beyond the Pumpkin kit as well as a short video to tell you how I put it together. If you want a kit with a different greeting than I used or want the greeting left blank, please let me know. 

My Make-N-Take Valentines

 Last week (I think it was last week 🤪)

I shared emailed out a Make-N-Take Monday making two valentine cards and I still had the negatives that remained after cutting out my hearts. 

Well, if you know me you know that I couldn't just throw them away. They were still hanging around my desk this morning so I quickly turned them into cards.

I feel much better not having wasted a bit. 

And ladies remember that I made these from scraps left over from other projects. I only added card bases. 

I wish I had gotten myself together to do a Make-N-Take this week, but I didn't. 

I'll get there. 

In the meantime I thought this update would give you more creative ideas. 

It's Our Day!!!

 Ladies....Today is World Card Making Day, so even though I'm away from home, that's exactly what I'm doing. 

Im working on this little lady for a punch art class when I return. She will soon have a lighter background, some clouds, and a husband and child will join her on other cards. Haven't done a full on punch art class in a while. It'll be fun. Be sure and shoot me a message if you are interested. 

I hope today finds you all with time to play at least a bit with your card making supplies. Also don't forget to send at least one out. People love to receive them. In fact, I think I'll declare a Handmade Card Sending Day. I choose one week from today. Next Saturday. I even have a prize to give away. Send me a picture of the card you make and send and you will be entered.

Well, my little crows are calling so I'd best get back to work. 

Have a fabulous day ladies!!

TACOS!!!!

 I just heard that the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors has proclaimed today "Sacramento Jimboy's Taco Day"

No...I do not live in Sacramento,  but I LOVE Jimboy's tacos. And their rice. DELICIOUS!! 

So guess what I'm going to have for lunch today. That's right. I'm going to run right through their drive through and treat myself  YUM!

I just thought everyone would  need to know so I've done my part to get the word out. 😄

Feelin' Spooky?

Okay all my colorers!

I have been playing with products that I purchased last year at the Expo and decided that some of you might have fun with them as well. 

These are my original samples and the first I have made for each. I have made them using stuff right out of my scraps so the ones you would be making might have some slight differences. I'm showing these because I'm going to offer the class very soon after I return so you will have them in plenty of time with them before Halloween. The dates and times will be decided depending on what works for all of you. 

The class fee is going to be $19.50. It will include the crazy witch shoes and you will be making Frankie in two ways. One colored (on the right) and one paper pieced (on the left). The insides will be done and these are the slimline cards that are all the rage right now, so envelopes will be included with each one. 

Let me know if you are interested and we will get this scheduled as soon as I return. Please give me times that would NOT work for you...day or night, to help me decide the whens and wheres. 

Also, I'm working on a Christmas workshop that will be offered soon after, so keep that in mind. The projects can be used on cards or as beautiful Christmas ornaments.
