Spice Cake Pumpkins


I have one more fall card to share....I was going to use this for card class this month, but decided not too. I used two different punches to punch out Spice Cake DSP and sponge the edges with Soft Suede ink and then "layered" them to rememble two different pumpkins. I then used the 5 Petal punch and punched out leaves for the top of them to resemble vines. I love the stamp set Grateful Greetings, have used it lots, and stamped it on Very Vanilla and punched out with Fancy Label Punch. Then hung it using Expresso Baker's Twine with a pearl.

Stamps: Grateful Greetings
Ink: Soft Suede
DSP: Spice Cake(Holiday Mini)
CS:Pumpkin Pie, Early Expresso, Very Vanilla
Expresso Bakers Twine, Basic Pearls, Wide Oval Punch, 1 3/8 circle punch, 5 petal punch, Big Shot, Perfect Polka dots embossing folder, Fancy Label Punch

Snow Much Fun!


This was one of our SAS cards and I think it was the favorite. I fell in love with these snowmen the minute I saw them. This is one of the FREE sets I picked for recruiting during the Convention challange.

$100,000 CAREER SALES GOAL MET!


I had a workshop last night with 9 new ladies to the Stampin' UP! world and had a WONDERFUL party! I went up and over my $100,000 career sales goal! WAS TOTALLY AWESOME! It was not only knowing that I was close to hitting it(but I hit it 2 months EARLY for my goals) it was an awesome group of ladies that I hope to get to know more. I had 3 sign up for November's card class! Here is a simple card I demonstrated since they were all new to stamping with me, I wasn't sure how much it would overwhelm them to do much more at first.

Supplies:
Rich Regals DSP Pattern Pack
CS: Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White
Ink: Early Expresso
Stamps: Friendly Phrases
Punches: Postage Stamp, 1" Square, Small Heart punch
Clips(forgot the name)-SU! Early Expresso Baker's Twine, Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots

Batty For You!



I made these for my daughter's PreK party on Friday. I used the Candy Wrapper die for the Big Shot, and the Fright Night DSP. I LOVE the polka dot prints in that pack....anyway, I used the directions to EXTEND the die to fit a FULL SIZE candy bar~
Then of course, the LOLLIES...gotta have those on there. I stamped the stamp twice, once in Cajun Craze and then again in Black, and punched out the spider with the 1" circle punch and popped it up on a dimensional.
