Card Buffet Class, September 26, 2011

Fall is almost here, and it is my favorite time of the year.  After a very long and hot summer, the cooler temps are such a welcome relief.  I always look forward to Thanksgiving.  It has been a favorite holiday for a very long time.  We have so much to be thankful for.  Of course Christmas is not too far away either, so we will be getting a start on Christmas card making.

                                                                    
                                                          Give Thanks

                     Happy Birthday to all with a Fall birthday

        Gratitude can transform common days into Thanksgivings.

Card Buffet Class, August 29th

Since we are all still melting in the Texas heat, it's a great time to come to Judy's "COOL" Stamp Shack for an evening of creativity and fun.  We meet at 6:30 until you are finished making your cards.  Without my planning ahead of time, the cards all seem to have ended up to be about "friendship".  The friendships of my stamping family have meant more than the world to me.  I am truly Blessed!

Friends are kind to each other's hopes

and cherish each other's dreams.

The language of Friendship

is not words but meanings.

-Henry David Thoreau

Heaven knows you're special.

(I know it too.)

You are such a Blessing

in my life.



Doodlin' Up with Stampin' Up!

What a fun and very relaxing new technique to add to

the Stampin' Up designs.  It's called Zentangle. 

It's Doodling on a grand scale, very easy and fun! 

This was done with the Flower Fancy set, using

Whisper White, Pear Pizzazz and Basic Black.

Card Buffet Class - Monday July 25th

We'll use the Open Seas set before it retires in August.  We can

always use cards for the men in our lives or those world-wide

travelers we know (and envy).

Remembering the breezy, hot days of summer of years gone by.

"Friends are kind to each other's hopes

and cherish each other's dreams."



Always Time to Create

When I tell people "the possibilities are endless" with Stampin' Up, that is really an understatement.  Look what you can do with the wooden blocks from our rubber mounted stamps.  Thanks goes to our demonstrator leader Sharon Cheng.  What a creative mind she has!  And just think what you could do for the holidays or a child's room or your own crafting area.  Well...I"m off to create!

Card Buffet Class

It's time to beat the heat and share some fun at Judy's "cool" Stamp Shack.  Our next class is Monday, June 27th, at 6:30 p.m.  I hope you like the cards we will be creating.  Feel free to bring someone you may know who wants a "girl's night out" and is itching to be creative.  Please RSVP so I will know how much to prepare.

The Open Seas

Faux Silk Technique

Another new technique of applying ink directly from the pad to the paper

A garden of texture and flowers!

A perfect card for any bird lover.
