FANG-TASTIC

Here is another project using the Fang-tastic stamp set. We will be making this card in card class on Saturday. This is a close up of the Dracula on the spider web. I decided to make it the Easel card so he would look like he's hanging on the spider web. Too cute!! It was so much fun making this. I am not usually a Halloween person but I do like this cute set. Nothing gorey, just cute.








Card Recipe:

Stamp set: Fang-tastic and Grateful Greetings

Card stock: Basic Black, Tangerine Tango, So Saffron and Very Vanilla

Ink: Black Stazon

Accessories: Basic Black and Tangerine Tango Markers, Spider Web Embossing Folder, Scallop Circle and 1 3/8 circle punches, dauber and dimensionals







It is so cool in person. My little goblins next door will like it I'm sure. We don't get trick or treaters in our park so I always make something filled with candy for my neighbors grandchildren. Last year they sent me such a cute thank you card. This card goes to grandma this year and I am making the Fang-tastic Fancy Favor box full of candy for each of the kids. Sure to be a lot of fun.

Hope you enjoyed your visit today! I so appreciate your visits and comments...........

Thanks for stoppin in!

Good Sunday morning everyone! It's another cool day here and almost time to watch the Charger game on TV. Hoping they win today!






This is one of my Big Shot projects for this afternoon Big Shot class. Any little gremlin would like to receive this I'm sure.

Day of Gratitude

I received an e-mail from Lynn Pratt this morning about her young 5 year old daughter who has been diagnosed with diabetes. If you go on this website here, and make a donation you can receive a free tutorial from Lynn for this very cute paper purse. Hope you will help this very good cause. My husband has diabetes also.










We received a little rain this morning, just enough to say it rained. It will be a cool day here again, only in the 60's.



Getting ready for card class this afternoon and this is my third creation for the Big Shot class tomorrow afternoon. I love the big pumpkin.







I used Cajun Craze cardstock for the main card. I layered it with basic black and then I put a layer of Very Vanilla run through the Big Shot with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder on that.
I used the Ovals original die for the pumpkin. I also used the Decorative Label punch for the sentiment from the Day of Gratitude stamp set. I finished it off with some thwacking and wal-la the finished product. We should have fun making this one.

Thanks for stoppin in!

Have a blessed day!

Northern Flurry

It's a cloudy, cool morning in Southern California today. I love it! Feels like fall and that's my favorite time of the year. I'm sharing my second creation for my Big Shot class with you today. We are doing 3 cards and 2 - 3-D projects. I shared one project yesterday. If you can join us we would love to have you come to the class. Just e-mail me and I will give you time and place.





I used Marina Mist, Brushed Silver and Whisper White cardstock.

The ink is Marina Mist and I used a dauber to color the snowflakes, and the ribbon is 1/8th inch Marina Mist taffeta.

I used the Northern Flurry Embossing Folder and the Northern Frost Decorative Strip for the snowflakes. For a little bling I put a Basic Rhinestone in the center of the dimensional mounted snowflakes.

The Noel is from the Many Merry Messages stamp set.
Hope this inspires you to do some Christmas creations.

Thanks for stoppin in!

Just Beleive

I am having a big shot class on the 17th of October and have all my projects ready. I thought I would share one of them with you today. I just love the big shot and wish I had every die, folder, sizzlet and anything else that goes with it. I have trouble not using it for every thing I make. You really need this, it is so much fun.

I decided I wanted a couple of 3-D projects and I just love the Scallop Envelope Box. It is so cute and holds a maximum of 6 - 3x3 cards and envelopes. I made 3 this time and I did them for different occasions. One is a thank you, one a just for you and the other is a friends.



I used Concord Crush for my box, decorated with Concord Crush dsp from the level 1 hostess incolor paper pack. The cards are made of Very Vanilla with layers of Concord Crush or Blushing Bride. I used the Just Believe stamp set, the word window and modern label, 1 1/4 inch circle punches. I used Concord Crush and Blushing Bride ink.

Hope you like them and they inspire you to do some of your own.

Thanks for stoppin in!

Have a blessed day!

Autumn Harvest

Remember in a previous post I told you I had been chosen a guest designer for Ustamp with Dawn and Friends. Here is my first posting with them. It came out today on their website, and you can purchase and see this and all the other wonderful projects for the Cool Moves Event, here. 80 cards in all with co-ordinating envelopes. 1/2 of the cards move and all are different.

All the designers are terrific and you will get some amazing cards. I have been so honored to be a part of this event. It makes you feel humble to be chosen to be considered along with all these wonderful artists. You will not be sorry you purchased this event, here.

I cannot give you details, but here is a sample of what you can expect when you purchase Cool Moves.


This is both my cards together with co-ordinating envelopes. I used the Autumn Harvest stamp set and the tunnel card movement.





This is a closer view of the Tunnel card front.







This is the inside of the Tunnel card.







This is my other card with co-ordinating envelope.



I thoroughly enjoyed doing this event and am so privileged to have been chosen to do the next event also called Get a Jump on Your Jingle. ( You're right it's a Holiday event). You will be amazed at the cards and projects in this event. It will be 40 cards with co-ordinating envelopes and 40 3-D projects.

Sincere Salutations

Chilly morning in Southern California. It really feels like fall and I am lovin' it. Spring and fall are my favorite times of the year. The change of seasons here is not as definite as they are in the East but there still is a change that can be seen and felt.

I am having a card class on October 23 at 2 p.m. so if you live in the San Diego area and would like to come just e-mail me and let me know. I have some great things planned.


This is my make-n-take card for my workshop on Saturday. My hostess says we have 8 coming so that will make for a good time. I am really lovin' doing the workshops and sure hope I can get some more bookings for this fall. I love making the harvest and holiday cards, they are so beautiful and the colors are fibrant. My hostess requested a birthday card since everyone sends them at one point or another. Here is the recipe.






I started with a Concord Crush base card 4 1/4" x 11". I cut 2 pieces of Pink Pirouette, 3" x 3 1/4 "and 1 1/4" x 4 1/4", 2 pieces of Whisper White, 2" x 4 1/4" and 2 3/4" x 3". The DSP is 1" x 4 1/4" and is from the In color pack. The paper is 6" x 6" so I cut a 1" strip and then punched the bird wing first and then cut the paper to 4 1/4". It is easier to do the wing that way you have more paper to hang on to in the punch.

I used the Scallop Border Trim Punch on each long side of the Whisper White 4 1/4" piece. After putting those layers together I tied the 5/8" Whisper White Organdy ribbon around them in a double knot and then glued them to the base card. The sentiment is from Sincere Salutations.

Hope you are inspired to create your own card and have a great time doing it.

Thanks for stoppin' in!

Have a blessed day!

Christmas Postcard

Good Morning! I don't know why but I am up very early this morning and I never do that unless I have somewhere to go very early. I decided I might as well see all of you since I'm up with no where to go.

This is the other card I will be making for my hostess at the workshop on Saturday. I just love the new Cherry Cobbler color with Very Vanilla. They just look so awesome together! Since Christmas is my favorite time of year you will probably see a lot of Christmas cards in the near future.







Not much to making this one. I used Cherry Cobbler for the base card. I layered it with Very Vanilla run through the Big Shot with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder. I tied Cherry Cobbler seam binding around the Vanilla layer before glueing it to the base card with snail. I stamped the Merry Christmas in Cherry Cobbler on Very Vanilla, glued it to a piece of Cherry Cobbler and put in on with dimensionals. Wa -la. A beautiful Christmas card!!

Thanks for stoppin by!

Hope you have a great day!

Upsy Daisy

Sorry I haven't posted for a few days. I was going to faithfully post everyday this month but it seems life gets in my way.

Monday I went to a wonderful network meeting with some other wonderful ladies and boy did I learn a lot. I didn't realize how great it would be to be part of a group of enthusiastic entrepreneurs like myself.

Yesterday I had to travel to the mountains, to a quaint little town and eat hot soup and do some shopping. It was a cool fall wonderful day and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I plan to do this often this fall and winter. I enjoy this time of the year the most.

I guess now it's time to get down to business and finish this post with a card. This one I made for my workshop coming up on Saturday. The hostess wanted cards that everyone sends out regular, so this is the first one I will make to give to her





Stamp set: Upsy Daisy

Cardstock: Poppy Parade, Sunny Garden dsp, Whisper White

Ink: Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade and Black Stazon

Accessories: Big Shot with the Beautiful Wings Embosslit and the Square Lattice Embossing Folder, the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch, 3/8" Whisper White Taffeta Ribbon, Basic Rhinestones and dimensionals

It's such a bright and cheery thank you card that anyone would like to receive. I so enjoy making cards for every occasion.

Thanks for stoppin!

Have a blessed night!
