Check out this great card By: Regina Andari. She used the star punches and star chipboard to create this. And we all know why it appealed to me!! The Western Sky Designer Series Paper!! My Favorite!!! I think this could be changed up to use for so many different things. The possibilites for this are endless. Here's great inspiration the next time you need a masculine card. Just change the stamped image and you're all set!!
Enjoy!!
I received a link to this great blog today that had 10 great ideas for stamping with kids.
Are your kids getting restless and do I dare say...BORED?!! AHHH!!!
My kids have dropped that horrible b word (borded not the other one LOL!!) I mean really, already? It's only been 4 weeks since school let out. Come on!!
Well, now thanks to this great blog, I will have some fun things to do with them and get some more stamping in!! How great is that.
Go to Jen Clendineng Blog for 10 great ideas and get rid of that horrible b word!! (you can also find her link on my Recommended Bloggers Page!!

This is my first ever splitcoaststampers challenge. This comes off the Demo side of the site.
The challenge was to do a "Reverse Spotlighting". She also wanted us to use retiring stampsets.
So I chose to use So much and to use the retiring In Colors. This was a fun challenge but a bit hard for me.
You can find the tutorial here.
It took me two trys to get everything to line up the way I wanted it to. I like the way it turned out in the end but I'm not so sure I'd do it again LOL!!
Enjoy!!
I found this great pattern on the Sudsol Website for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators (check out the blinkie on the left side if your a demo!). This is such a cute idea for a gift. My daughter just loves the fact it's a purse (she hasn't seen it with the photo's yet). These are more birthday pics of her but these are the family party.
Enjoy!!
I made this "Flip Fold Album" today for the first time. I purchased the tutorial from Stacey's Blog and I love how this turned out! I had a lot of fun and was able to get my daughter's 8th birthday in a scrapbook!
Check out the rest of the pictures below. The only thing I used that was retired are the rub-ons but they went so well with the theme and the Designer Series Paper I used I just couldn't help myself!!
Enjoy!!
This was the original box I started to make when I did my tutorial blitz but just had to make the other one. I will be selling these in my new store!! This set has 8 love notes, 4 tags, 5 cards, 1 address book, 1 pen and stamps. I used several different stamp sets. The only colors I used were very vanilla, certainly celery, mellow moss and basic black. Here are some more pictures!!
Enjoy!!
I wanted to share this great card!! I found it this morning on the Stampin' Up! demo side of the website. This is one of my all time favorite stamp set by Stampin' Up! I will be so sad if they retire this anytime soon!!
This card was created by: Mary Haugen.
I love the coloring she did and the use of all the accessories!! This is a card I will have to case!
Enjoy!!
I finally decided to decorate this journal from Stampin' Up! that I've had for a while now. I was never quite sure how to get the paper around the binding until I saw a tutorial on it at Stacy's Blog. She made this very easy to understand and fun to do. I really like the way it turned out!!
Enjoy!!
I am going to be teaching a few classes for one of my Yahoo groups that I belong to. I picked the Chipboard class as one of them and decided to make Star Albums. These are so quick to make and look so cool when complete!! I made two different samples to show one without any punches or coluzzle and one with. You can do so many different things with these books. I have a large handled tin that I altered for my daughter that has one of these inside along with a 3x3 album and tabbed pages.
I still have some work to complete on these but I wanted to share. Check out the pics below.
Enjoy!!
