August Fun

Hello Everyone,

I have been busy with holidays and my granddaughter this past month. I guess it is time to get back to work and get busy catching up with things I have not been doing.

I hope you all have been having a great summer. So far it has been wonderful with lots of sun and maybe a little to much heat. I guess we should not complain as it will soon be 40 below and snow. No more golfing then.

I am getting back into scrapbooking and am looking forward to ordering some more of the new product this month. I am so excited to be able to share a all the beautiful new paper and embellishments. There are a few new colours coming and they are awesome.

The Zoe Paper Pack ready to be ordered this month. Also the embellishments.

Scrapbook Fun

There is a new Cricut cartridge - Artistry and it comes with a the Enchantment combo pack which includes the new colours. There is also a digital copy of the Artistry cartridge. Scrapbook fun

The August stamp of the month is very nice.

The specials for August are the roll ups (a couple of the new products) if you purchase a roll up you receive either a stamp set or the new base and bling sheets.

I have the books here and if anyone wants one let me know. There are two and you can start ordering in September.

I will have everything listed on the side or on the top of the blog.  You can also go to my website to see the new product.

I am going to host a card making night once a month if anyone is interested. I am going to hold them on the first Monday and Tuesday of the first full week of each month starting in October. Scrapbooking club will also start in the fall. It will be once a month on a Thursday night. Let me know if you wish to attend either. I have room for six people on each of the nights.

Take care and have a great month.

July

Hello Everyone,

I am at home for a couple of days and I am just letting you know that the July special is coming to a close.

Check it out on my website.

Early for June

I have posted the June stamp of the month and the Special for June as I am not going to be near an internet service for a number of days.

The May stamp of the month and the May special are still on. Just hop on over to my website to check them out. Scrapbook Fun

Have a great weekend everyone.

Blossom Card

I made 30 shower cards for my daughters baby shower in June.
I made the tags a little smaller than the book.

The idea came from the Expressions 2 Idea book.  I liked the design and loved the paper pack as she had a girl.

I can't wait to make the fruit things for the shower. They should be fun. LOL.  Could be interesting. Soapstone carving may come in handy when I go to carve the fruit.

I used all CTMH product. The Blossom paper pack, Shower Flowers stamp set both from the Seasonal Expression 2 book. The card is on page 11. I used the recommended stamp pads and Cricut cartridge. Go to my website and checkout the recipes for each book. Enjoy.   Scrapbook Fun

 

Card Buffet

Hello Everyone,

I am planning on running a card buffet in the fall. 
If you are interested in joining the fun please contact me.
There will be a couple of rules.  The main one is All cards have to be made that evening before you leave.

There will be more details later in June.  The information will also be in the July newsletter.

The buffet will be held at my place and I am looking at the first Monday and Tuesday of the first full week of each month. You will have your choice of days unless the one day is full. I have room for 6 people each night. I may be able to squeeze in 7.  It will be fun.

Have a great weekend and I hope the weather is nice. 

I am off to try my hand at something new. Soapstone carving! I guess we will see how that goes. I think the only things I don't have are carving tools but I figured I didn't need them until I decide if this new adventure is something I wish to pursue.
