Breast Cancer Awareness Month (LeAnn)

Awhile back in Midway, Shiloh taught me how to make this awesome box using Shannon's Big Shot and Top Note Die Cut. Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I did mine in all pink. I had these pink note cards that fit perfectly in the box. I made a set of 4 thank you cards to go with it. I LOVE how it turned out!

Spooky Spider (Shannon)

I made a little halloween decoration w/Stamin' Up!s new-ish product line--Decor Elements. I am really happy w/the way it turned out and can't wait to try another...
I got the tile at Lowe's for just a couple bucks, cleaned it, put the image on the tile, sprayed it w/a glossy coat, then sprinkled a little glitter over the gloss before it dried. The 2nd picture is an attempt at a close-up of the glitter....

Happy Halloween!!

Happy Halloween (Shannon)

I decided to try another shaker card....this time w/glitter instead of beads. And also my favorite stamp set of the moment....

This close-up shows the purple glitter a little better....

Tangerine Tango Patterns DSP, Grand Soiree stamp set (embossed in black), All Holidays stamp set (i think).

Pina Colada Simply Scrappin' (LeAnn)

I loved making cards with this kit! It was super easy, made a lot of cards, and they are so cute! So much fun!



A Few More Simply Scrappin Event Photos (Shannon)

I've got a few more pics from the Simply Scrappin' event that I want to share...it was so much fun I am thinking of making it a tradition!!

I made several cards beforehand and displayed them during the event...I just love seeing the quantities that you can make with one kit!!

And I made some treats too....a new variation of Shannon's signature cookies...

Melissa and Vanessa...just look at the pile of card stock on the table! Amazing!
Glenda & Hiedi....
Madeline & Millie....
Amanda, LeAnn, Melissa, Lisa & Erika....
And then I hopped in a picture at the end of the night after almost everyone left....Lisa & LeAnn were the die hards (and Madeline for taking the photo).

Simply Scrappin'-Vanessa

I used the Summer Home Simply Scrappin' Kit.
Here are my Top 4 faves that I made.

As always, Shannon hosted a magnificent event! Thanks Shannon!

Simply Scrappin' Event! (Shannon)

Last week all the Queens, and several others, attended my Simply Scrappin' card event....and it was such a blast! I didn't get any cards from the I Wish kit finished before the event, so I've done some now and am going to post them for those who chose the same kit. :)

And I'm also calling all my Queens---let's see some of what you made!! :)


All of these have a bit of bling on them...in some of the pics you can't really tell though.


This holly berry one is one of my faves! :)

Autumn Star-Vanessa

We (Amanda & Vanessa & LeAnn) got this great idea here . We found the 10 inch stars at Real Deals. And the paper is SU Apple Cider. The ribbon is from Robert's. This project is very easy. We applied the paper with Modge Podge. I think I'm going to go and get some spray glitter to add some bling!
