Team Meeting Swap...

A bit over a week ago we had a big team training meeting that my upline put on. It was a fabulous event and I have a few things to show you from the event this week. OF COURSE there was swapping involved. Today I am going to show you my swap. We always swap full cards (often times swaps will just be a card front but with our group we always do full cards that open) and I love that! I was in a "fall" mode so this is the card I made...

This was a quick card to make. The colors I used: Soft Suede, Pool Party, More Mustard, Very Vanilla. I just used the colors from the Spice Cake Designer Series Paper...since that is what I was using on my card. Stamped a few leaves from the Gently Falling set, scallop the card edge, and there you go. :) Here are a few close-up's of the details...

The greeting is actually stamped on the inside of the card. I cut about an inch off the front of the card, and then scalloped the edge. This let me stamp the greeting on the front. This was a fun card to make! Hope you enjoy! Thanks for visiting!!!

Hairbow Frenzy...

I have been meaning to share these for awhile. A few weeks ago I was asked by someone in our church to help with an event they were doing for the women in our congregation. She wanted the women to make some Holiday Hairbow's as part of this event. OF COURSE I was willing to help! These are what I designed...
A darling rolled fabric pumpkin for Halloween, some fun fall flowers for Thanksgiving, and a glittery star for Christmas. (Now...just note that I didn't have the right fabric for the star. I was just using what I had on hand but was getting some glittery felt for the final product. :) )

Here are some close-up's...I LOVE this pumpkin. Just took a strip of some orange fabric, cut out a circle with my Big Shot and Circles # 2 die ( I used that a LOT for these projects) and started rolling and gluing. The EASIEST way to do these is cut a circle from the Sticky Pages (just basically a 12x12 sheet of Sticky Strip) with the Circles #2 die. Then mount that on a cardstock or felt piece the same circle size. Then you don't have to constantly be hot gluing the fabric down. You just stick your fabric down in the middle, roll your fabric around in a circle, and just sticking it down into the Sticky Pages as you roll. Then I just cut a strip of brown felt for the stem and tied some Old Olive ribbon in a knot and glued it down.

Here is a picture of the back so you can see how I adhered it all together and how the clip is on...
Just cut out a circle smaller than the pumpkin circle and glue it on to the clip and pumpkin.
Here is one version that I did for Fall. I just did a single leaf with my Leaves die. It was kinda small so I wanted to make a bigger one (which is why I did the 2nd one). This one will be super cute in my 7 month old's hair. (ok....well...not IN her hair...more like clipped on to one of her elastic headband things. :) ) Here is a picture of the back...
So here is the enlarged version. I cut out three of the leaves and just glued them on to a circle cut from felt and my Circles #2 die. This fabric is from the "Spice Cake" collection in the mini catalog and I LOVE LOVE this...And here is the back...


Then the star is looking a little sad...but with glitter all over the felt...MUCH better! :) I just cut out two circles from the Star die and layered them on top of each other. I forgot to get a picture of the back...but I did the same thing as the others so hopefully you can figure it out.Hope you enjoy! Gotta love the Big Shot and all it's many uses! When I cut the pieces out for all the ladies....it seriously took me like 1 hour to do enough circles/leaves/etc. for like 80 hairbow's of each design. Being able to do 8 layers at once REALLY made things go fast!!!! Thanks for visiting!

October Club Projects...

Last night was our monthly club night! So I think I better show you what we made! About half of our girls live out of town...so half of my club gals haven't even seen these yet! So the time is here! :) (And club gals...I will be sending you the instructions for these projects today!)

First up is the card we made. I wanted to show them the fun Simply Sent Card Kits that are the focus of this month's promotion! It's a GREAT promotion!!! You buy TWO Simply Sent Kits and get a FREE coordination stamp set. (You can buy any of the kits and pick any of the phrase sets that go with the kits!!!) CLICK HERE to learn more!!!! I really love the kit, Everyday Elegance, but I wanted to step it up just a bit. These kits are FABULOUS for a beginner stamper because you can make a card in just seconds! But they are just as fabulous for an experienced stamper because YOU can make a card in just seconds also!!! :) And add just a few other supplies you have laying around and turn this simply adorable card into a simply FABULOUS card. Here is the one we made...

Seriously...how easy is that?!?! We just added a strip of Designer Series Paper, the ruffled ribbon (which I can NOT get enough of!!!!) and then some Sticky Rhinestones on the label. This card was SO FAST to make!!!! I think I am addicted!!! Here is a close-up of the label...
And yes...that stamp set is one I got FREE for ordering the kits!!!! Gotta love FREE!!!!!

Next up we used some products from the Holiday Mini Catalog. LOVE the Kraft Gift Boxes and the Spice Cake product line so combined those to make this...Stamped on the bottom of the box with the "Gently Falling" stamp set from the Mini. Then added some Designer Series Paper on top, a strip of the FABULOUS fabric around the box, and added a fun tag. Here are some more pics...

(The stamping is on all the sides of the box. I am LOVING these leaves!!!!)
That sentiment is from the "Petite Pairs" stamp set. I just got this one, and just LOVE all the fun and unique sentiments in it. Check this one out for sure! I thought this would be a great little gift box to put a yummy treat in to give to all your guest for your Thanksgiving dinner. You could even make these your name cards. Or if you are going somewhere for your Thanksgiving dinner...what a fun "thank you for hosting" gift box this would make!!!! Or if you have already celebrated Thanksgiving....it's a great gift box for this time of year for any event or any reason you have to say thanks!!!!

Hope you enjoy! Thanks so much for visiting!!!
