The Beautiful Parasol Die from Marianne

Good Monday Morning!

I just wanted to share a card that Virginia Behrens made using the beautiful parasol die from Marianne.  When I first saw this die, I thought, pretty, but how many times will I use it?  I mean, how many showers do I get to go to?  Believe me, not many.  My own daughter doesn't even want a traditional bridal shower!

But Ginny took this parasol, turned it over, filled it with flowers and hearts and made a gorgeous "Get Well Card"!!!

This goes to show you that you should really think outside the box and try to get multiple uses for your dies and stamps as well!

Dies:  Marianne Creatable LR0263
          Anja Corner LR0200
          Spellbinders Nestabilities Classic Scalloped Circles

Clean & Simple Flower Card

Good Monday Morning!
Just a quick share of a CAS card............just stamp the background and die cut the pretty oval and flower, stamp a saying and you're done!  You can make a bunch of these in all different colors and have them in your stash when you need a card!  And we all know that those days come more often than we like to admit!

Stamp:  Outlines Dotted background
Dies:   Marianne Fancy flower  LR0248
           Marianne Large fancy oval set LR0240
           Anja Card stand LR0266

Let me know if you would like any of these dies.  I can easily set them aside for you!

Look at these NEW fabulous dies from Dee!

Oh my. where do I begin!???

Dee has released her new dies and they are just jaw dropping spectacular!

First, here is the new floral collection..............................I just love the little bells!
                  These are the dies:

                         And here are the flowers all put together!

                                                                       Simply gorgeous!


Here are some pretty Asian and tropical influence designs:

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST!!!
                                   Build a Christmas Tree collection!  What a grand idea!
I know many of you have the Christmas trees from last year!  Well, now you can add DECORATIONS to your trees! And it will be so easy.  The decorations come in sets.  For example, you will get a die plate with LOTS of mini Xmas balls, so that you will cut 40 balls with ONE pass through of your die cutting machine!  Or you will cut 28 stars or 14 mini doves!  What a time saver!

Don't know about you, but my mind is spinning!

Let me know what you think!  And please let me know if you want any of these................I want to make sure that I order enough and no one will be disappointed!  (Also, the actual Christmas tree dies are also available if you want to add one to your collection.)

Have a fabulous day!

Cards from the His and Her Class

Good Morning Everyone!  Just wanted to post the cards that we made in the His and Hers Class.  I was able to give you tips and ideas and hopefully make you think outside the box so that you too can come up with some cards yourself.

Here is a picture of the three "His" cards.  

And here are the corresponding "female" versions of the masculine cards.

Next are pictures of the 3 pairs of cards:

Great news........You still have an opportunity to create these cards!  Join us on Thursday, August 22 at 1PM or at 6 in the evening.  You will not be disappointed!

(Don"t forget, click on each picture to see it close up)

Stacy's Classes were a Blast!

It was just last Saturday that Stacy Rich was here and we all had a blast!!!  Thanks so much Stacy!  You ROCK!  And I also want to thank all who attended and help make the special classes a huge success!

Again I got so involved that I didn't get a picture of all of the attendees nor of the wonderful food we had; believe me though, the stamp pads were flying, the new stamps were passed around and the laughter was non stop!

In the previous post, I showed you pictures of two of the cards from the class.  Here are the other two cards using the wonderful new set, "Weeds and More".

 

This is the very pretty and versatile new stamp set (Weeds & More) from Stacy.

 Thanks for stopping by,
