Twilight...

I saw this today on the news and thought that it was hilarious.  I can't say that I'm such a huge Twilight fan, although I have read them all, but there have been books that I've lost lots of sleep over.  Has anyone else sat up all night to read a book or series?  If so which ones?

Christmas Cheer

My fabulous niece found this and I thought it was worth sharing.  I think that this is a universal favorite.  What is your favorite Christmas song?

SWAP SISTERS!

I am a member of the newly formed "Swap Sisters" that has been started by several of us from UStamp With Dawn and Friends. I'm excited to keep in contact with these wonderful ladies I met last month. This network is for Stampin' Up! demonstrators to be able to share, inspire, and chat. Sue Denning has done an incredible job getting everything arranged! We are going to kick off in January, so if you are a SU demo and would like to participate, let me know!

Moving Day

This layout is about the move to our new home.  We were so excited and so grateful to the many people who helped us. 2002-7_Moving1_web Here are three of our sons taking a break.  I had a little fun with the thought bubble.  Since this is a masculine page and a bit grubby I had fun with this worn notebook paper and elements by Gunhild Storeide.  She has some great freebies every Friday from Norway.  I love seeing the amazing creativity of so many people.  They inspire me to be more creative.  I really appreciate the generosity of so many people who share with the rest of us.

I learned a new technique in this layout.  2002-7_Moving2_web There was an area that needed to be filled in and I learned how to do it with the clone tool.  My mind is reeling with the possibilities of this tool and I can’t wait to try it again.  Since I only had two decent pictures for this layout I used the second page to journal.  I always have lots to say and love to tell stories so a place for journaling is great for me.  I also like the fact that I can share these stories with all of our family.  We are all so spread out geographically that it is hard to stay connected as much as we would like to.  I wish that we would have had these tools when my children were young.

Hello everyone, I hope you all are having a very nice holiday weekend. Hopefully my news will make it even better.  I have just become a "Stampin' Up" demonstrator. I have lots to learn, but I am excited for this new opportunity!

Stampin' Up is currently having a huge  
Holiday Extravaganza with lots of items from 30% - 50% off. This sale runs through Nov. 30th so there are only two more days to shop! Take a look because there are some amazing deals!






Starting a new business is both exciting and terrifying.  If you would like to support my new venture and order from my Stampin' Up website, click here

Here is the website address if the link fails to work. I am still learning how to do that.

Here are some samples of cards I have made with Stampin' Up supplies.  

 


Stampin' Up has some great supplies and ideas for scrapbooking, card making, and other paper crafts.  Please let me know if I can be of help to you as you make your preparations for the holiday season.

I hope everyone continues to have a safe and happy holiday season!
