No Bones About It

No Bones About It

RAWR!   No Bones about It is a fun set for kids of any age.  It was fun to sit down and play with this set and use our embossing paste as a fun texture.  Our embossing paste is white.  By using reinker you can

Who would have thought using the same stamp set twice!  I mentioned on my last post that I had a little technique to share with you using this set – making the glass look half full (get it?  the name of the stamp set –

I’ve had this set sitting on the shelf for quite awhile.  I’m not really a wine drinker – I got it because I loved one image – “Merry Christmas”.  It was fun to sit down and use a set that I really wasn’t sure about.  I’ve got some other ideas brewing in my head – wait that’s coffee – I’ve got some other ideas fermenting in my head and a few techniques that I want to share with you using this set.

I’ve really been afraid, to do the eclipse technique.  Thankfully, my friend Bree had a very similar card at her card class a few weeks ago that I was able to attend.   It was really a simple card to do! I embossed and stamped

I loved, loved, loved the October Paper Pumpkin kit.  I can’t wait to add to it with the November Paper Pumpkin kit.  We actually made these cards in our monthly class.  Everyone loved it!

Oh my goodness – You need to seriously set a reminder to shop during extravaganza!  Here is how it will work – November 20th to 26th select items will be on sale all week (I would suggest shopping early – as things may sell out!).

We needed to make another stack of thank you cards – looks like we will be spending the weekend making another stack too.  This time, Jackie used the Stampin’ Blends to color in the globe image from the Going Far stamp set.   The deal we 

Beachy Christmas

Beachy Christmas

A few weeks ago, we were in Walla Walla with my daughter.  Part of her duties are to make an official visit to each chapter in the state.  I was so happy to learn that my friend Bree was having a stamp class while we were in town!  I was able to go to class and stamp.  It was so refreshing to spend some time stamping while away for the weekend.

We used the new Stampin’ Blends to color in the images on the Beachy Christmas set.  I love how fun this set is.  Yes, it is in our Holiday catalog and displayed in the Christmas section – but honestly – I don’t think is set is strickly for Christmas!  I have “Christmas” lights up year round on my porch and motor home (okay so I do change the color out whenever I want).

Just want to throw this out there too about our Stampin’ Blends.  I was a skeptic too about the new markers.  I remember the old ones and some of the manufacturing issues we had.  Let me tell you, I love, love, love these new Blends.  I can’t seem to find a single flaw – and trust me – I’m looking.

While my tribe is off to OnStage in Salt Lake City, I’ve decided to hold stamp class.  Its the first time I’ve had a class since I lost my craft room.  I wasn’t sure how it was going to work out – but surprisingly it
