October Stamp a Stack/Margaret's Stamp Camp

Here is a picture of the projects that we will be making at our October Stamp-a-stack and also at Margaret's Stamp Camp. There will be one more card. I just have not decided for sure on it. The date for the stamp a stack is Thursday, October 20th at 7:00 pm. If you would like to attend the cost is $20.00. Bring a friend that has never stamped with me before and you will receive 1/2 off of your price. (Your friend will still need to pay the $20.00 fee.) This is the perfect opportunity to get you jump started on your holiday cards. To attend just e-mail me back or give me a call so I can save your spot. Seating is limited.

2 Red Ribbons and some SPICE CAKE

Finally here I am uploading pictures of my projects that I entered into the Eastern Idaho State Fair. I do not know what is up with my camera and uploading but I guess it is just flipping some of the pictures all by itself. I have not idea how to flip them back. ANYWAYS..... Here are the three cards that I entered under "Thank You" catagory. I got second place. Super excited! I used a lot of fun stuff from the holiday mini.




Love the NEW 3/8" quilted Satin Ribbon in Early Espresson 124104 (and Cherry Cobbler 124105).





The Spice Cake Designer Fabric 124066 and DSP 124003.





Here is a closer look of my cute little flower. I also added an antique brad 117273 to the middle. I used the tasteful trim Bigz XL Die 120893 to make the flower.





A little Rock N' Roll technique on the little tag with a leaf stamp from the Genly Falling 123804 c or 123802 w stamp set.










I love the look of layering even with ribbon and linen thread 104199. The ribbon is the Pear Pizzazz 1/2" stitched-poly Ribbon. So cute!





So here is my page of "The Cutest little Cowboy" I posted a page a lot like this earlier, but yes I had to do some updating for the fair and add in some more layers.





Don't you just love these big buttons? I layered my Spice Cake Designer Button 124113 with an antique brad in the middle.








I would love to hear what you think. Also check back soon. I will be posting card pictures for the October Stamp-a-stack class and Margaret's class. We will be using lots of fun stuff from the new Holiday Mini Catalog.

FAIR WEEK

Yes, I am still here. For those of us in Blackfoot life seems to become a little crazy around the first week in September due to the Eastern Idaho State Fair. It is a huge thing here. And since the fair is just down the road from my house there is just no getting around it. Little Blackfoot just becomes one big crazy place. The schools even have early release days for the fair. It is crazy and add two little guys birthdays on top of that and we have one big crazy party. I did finally after years of talking about it submit some items in the arts & crafts department at the fair. I did the cutest little cowboy page of my little guy Samuel, but of course I had to change it up and add more to it. And I did three cards. No I couldn't just use any I had to make three new cards I used the Spice Cake DSP, fabric and buttons. And...I forgot to take pictures before I turned them in. Can you believe that. I will post pictures once I can pick them up next week. I hope all of you are having a great week and if you are here in Blackfoot have FUN AT THE FAIR!
