Stamp Club Projects!

We had Stamp Club yesterday so ofcourse it's time to update my blog!This month is all about the Shimmer Paints! We used Shimmer Paints 3 ways, as an ink, as an overlay and as a mist. I LOVE the effect that it gives I just wish it would photograph better!

This card is a CASE from Splitcoast. Using Dasher Stamp Set and Bashful Blue paper. We used the Champagne Shimmer Paint as a mist on this one.


This one uses the Christmas Cocoa Designer Paper. I love love love the flocked paper in that paper pack! His antlers are done in the platinum shimmer paint.
This is a corner bookmark. We used the Christmas Cocoa paper again with the Snowflake from the Snow Swirled Stamp Set. We used the Champagne Shimmer as an overlay on the real red ink.

Stamp club is great fun!! If you're looking for a fun creative outlet you should join us!

NOT a card post :)

I know usually I post cards but I have become addicted to thriftydecorchick's blog and she has inspired me to get my fall decor out. I went on Better Homes and Garden's this morning and saw this

Well I knew I had to try it but I didn't want to use fresh flowers. So Mom and I hit Michael's today and picked up some pretty floral stems and a carvable pumpkin.
Here is what I started with:

And here is the finished project. Isn't it pretty?? And the best part was it was CHEAP ;)

It will either sit on my kitchen table or my fireplace mantle. I haven't decided yet.

Mojo Monday

I can't believe I actually did the Mojo Monday Sketch ON Mojo Monday! For those of you who don't know Mojo Monday is a great site that each Monday posts a different card sketch. Here is the link for Mojo Monday

And here is my take on it.

I just love it! Paper is SU's Cast a Spell Designer Paper and the Stamp Set is Twick or Tweet.

September Stamp Club

Stamp Club was yesterday so I can show you the projects now :)

This is the Mummy Kit Kat holder if you follow the Chic n Scratch link
over there -----> you will find Angie's video tutorial for this adorable kit
kat holder! This one is a cracked glass Halloween Card. We used the Haunting Hill wheel and the Glassy Glaze powder to create this really neat effect. I didn't realize how much 11 people would use and I ran out on the last person-darn it! She was very understanding though :)

And this last one uses the Twick or Treat Stamp Set and the Cast a Spell Designer Paper. I love it!We also used the Haunting Hill wheel to accent the old olive paper.

I am going to challenge myself to update my blog more often. I can't believe how long it's been since I updated this!!

Have a great day!

Medallion Stamp Club

Today was Stamp Club and we did projects using the Medallion Background Stamp. I LOVE this stamp! Here are the cards we made.

This is my FAVORITE! I love Rich Razzleberry it's so elegant!
This is my take on the front of the SU Catalog. What do you think??I love this Crushed Curry I didn't think I would like it until I opened the package oh WOW I love it!!

And this is a 5 x 5 square card I CASED from SCS. I LOVE "tipping" the stamp with the Chocolate Chip Ink.

Thanks for looking!

Jenn Tagged Me

Jenn tagged me so I had no choice but to update my blog :) Here was her challenge.

So here's how it works...Go to the 10th folder on your wonderful little computer and post the 10th picture in that folder and explain the picture! NO CHEATING! (Feel free to tag some peeps if you'd like to keep the randomness going!).

And here is my picture. After seeing Relo's nifty duster slippers I had to have some! I rushed to Bed Bath and Beyond with my coupon in hand and got some cute green ones. As soon as I got them out of the bag the littleset blueberry had them on and was dusting! He is such a man-it's all about the tools :)
