Concord Crush purse



This is a little purse we made at my Big Shot Class. It is pretty easy to make and I think it turned out so cute. I used two cellophane bags on the inside and made some 3 x 3 cards. You could also put a gift card on one side too! My inspiration for this bag came from Sandy Hancock’s site. She has great directions there too! I also made a Halloween bag that I will post later today or tomorrow. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email me!

Another Cute Owl


Sorry that I haven’t posted very often. I am a full time teacher and school started a month ago. I am still trying to get caught up and find time (which I really haven’t) to sit and stamp. Here is another card I made using the Owl punch. It is just like one I already posted but it uses different colors. I used Early Espresso cardstock and Greenhouse Gals DSP.

Our new Holiday Mini goes live on the first. It is packed with great products. If you’ve ordered from me recently you should be receiving it in the mail very soon!! Have a great weekend!

Just a Little Note

I’ve been gone too long! The last month has had some challenges and I wasn’t able to sit and create, at all. I have a Big Shot class on Tuesday so I spent yesterday creating some projects. This is one of them using the cute new owl punch. It is so much fun to use and the little owl will always look different with every card you make! I used the Scallop Square Bigz die. The white part of the card lifts up and sits on the square scallop. I got the inspiration for this design from Andrea Walford’s blog. I also used the square lattice embossing folder. I like the look but sometimes when I use that folder my project doesn’t lay as flat as I would like but it sure is cute. The sentiment is from one of the level 2 Hostess stamp sets called Apple Blossom.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope to be posting again in the next several days since I made several cards this weekend.

For You

I have received my shipment of new items from the catalog but I haven’t had a chance to create anything yet! I am hoping to play will all of my new fun stuff today. I am most excited about the pearls and rhinestones!! If you missed them, they are on page 188 in the new catalog!

Here is a card I made several weeks ago for a workshop. It uses the Island Oasis Designer Paper from the Summer Mini. I love this paper and will be sad when it goes away on August 31st. The stamp set I used was Tropical Party. It is a very quick and easy card to make except that you have to cut the flowers out which really goes pretty quickly. I popped up the top flower and the one on the right with dimensionals. Thanks for stopping by! I am off to play with my stamps!
