Embossing Folder holder

2012-02-22T08:21:00-06:00

Hello Stampers! Do you have a special way of storing all of your Big Shot embossing folders? I used to have a little basket that I stored my folders in, but recently my upline, Jeri, made me the cutest holder! You have to see this:

Isn't it cute? She covered a little wooden crate with the Everyday Enchantment designer series paper (126154) from the Sale-a-Bration brochure. She also used the 3/8" Pleated satin ribbon (125571) from the Occasions mini catalog. And don't you love the flowers on the front made from the ribbon???

There are dividers inside that have even been embossed! I love it! Thanks Jeri!

When you have your order ready and have picked out your FREE Sale-a-Bration items, hop over to my Inkin With Dink online store and place your order today! Hurry because Sale-a-Bration ends on March 31st!

Papercraft Garage Sale

2012-02-20T14:52:44-06:00

Hello Stampers! Well, Saturday was my Papercraft Garage Sale and it was a great day! Thanks to all of those who attended and took advantage of my specials!

After the sale, we held my group meeting! In addition to our business topics, we celebrated the promotions of two of us in the group. Congratulations to Alice Marie for making Supervisor! Since my daughter Amie just loves making cakes, I had her make our cake! Here is what she came up with:

Isn't it fun? This is the first cake that she has done all by herself, including baking the cake! Can you say cake business on the side???

Come back tomorrow for this week's My Digital Studio downloads!

Fifth Avenue Floral and Take It to Heart cards

2012-02-18T08:04:00-06:00

Hello Stampers! I have two beautiful cards to show you today!

This is the first card that I made. I used the Fifth Avenue Floral stamp set (113734) which makes beautiful cards without much trouble! I stamped the flower, cut it out, and adhered it with dimensionals on the card.

I used the same layout for this card, only I used the new stamp set, Take It To Heart (125520) from the Occasions mini catalog. I think it turned out just as pretty!

Old Olive thank you cards

Every month at our group meeting, everyone is encouraged to bring items they have made to show off to the group! Thanks Lynn for sharing these with us!

If you have any questions about joining my Dink It Up! group, contact me and come to our next group meeting to see what they are all about!

Elephant & Penguin Valentine's cards

2012-02-13T14:14:13-06:00

Hello Stampers! Whenever possible, I love to make my girl's cards with their favorite animals on them, an elephant and a penguin! I am so grateful to all of the creative people out there who come up with the great punch art animals for me to CASE!

This is Casie's penguin card. Isn't it fun? This penguin was on a card made by Vicki Burdick. I think I saw it on her blog.

This is Amie's elephant card. I saw a card very similar to this one on the boards at Leadership last month! I had to of course make this card with some blue since that is Amie's favorite color! It is sometimes hard to make blue a Valentine's color!

I hope you enjoyed these cards and that you have a fantastic Valentine's Day tomorrow! If you would like to recreate these cards and need to know some of the punches used, contact me!

Valentine kids camp

2012-02-12T21:20:19-06:00

Hello Stampers! Yesturday was my Valentine's kids camp and we had a great time! Want to see what we made?

We used the P.S. I Love You stamp set (125460) from the Occasions mini catalog with the Full Heart punch (119883).

For this card we used the I (Love) Love wheel (117084) for the background and the flower was made using the Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer punch (122464) and the Small Heart punch (117193) with the Send Me Soaring stamp set (125440).

The girls made this cute sour cream container. We used retired designer series paper and a retired stamp.

Finally, they made door hanger baskets using the retired Petal card die and lots of hearts from the I (Heart) Hearts stamp set (117010) and the Heart to Heart (119881) and Full Heart (119883) punches.

If you have a daughter, granddaughter, neice, etc. who would like to join us for my St. Patrick's kids camp, it will be held on Saturday, March 10th at my house! Please RSVP, we would love to have her join us!

Regional Make n' Takes

2012-02-10T07:10:00-06:00

Hello Stampers! We only had two make n' take projects at regionals in San Antonio, but they are really fun! At regionals, the projects focus around one stamp set, which this time was Send Me Soaring (125440) from the Occasions mini catalog.

The polka-dotted flower petals were made by stamping the polka-dot kite image from the stamp set onto scrap paper. We then used the Small Heart punch (117193) and punched out the center of the stamped image! How fun is that!!! The leaf was done the same way only we punched it out using the 3/4" circle punch (119873). The two background layers of the flower were made using the Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer punch (122464).

This is a fun view master card! I have never made one of these before, and it wasn't exactly easy, but well worth the work!

There are actually three stamped kite images stamped on the wheel. The wheel hangs off the right side of the card and that is how you turn the wheel to see the other images! You definately have to use your Stamp-a-ma-jig (101049) when making this card!!!

If you haven't purchased this super fun stamp set yet, you have to get it! There are so many fun things to do with it! Hop over to my Inkin With Dink online store and order yours today!
