Try a Technique!

Hi there!  Popping in real quick to share a fun technique that France Martin (Frenchie) demonstrated in one of her videos.  You can view it HERE.   The background color used on the Woodlands embossing folder (by Stampin' Up!) is Pool Party.  I used the car from the Guy Greetings set, but a number of images could be used.  Hope you give it a try!  It's a lot of fun.

Must get going before the girls show up for Card Buffet.  Thank you for stopping in today!

Gift Card Present

Hi there!  Yesterday was a busy day - just didn't get around to posting.  Wednesday night was the Stampin' Up! Catalog Kickoff.  What a great time meeting up with friends and making new ones!  Such a fun evening!  The new Occasions Catalog is full of awesome products - my wish list is ready!  We can pre-order beginning today, which is just one of the benefits of being a Demonstrator!  Woo hoo! 

Now about the card above, which is a gift card holder.  It's not just for Christmas.  Change the DSP to fit the occasion.  Below is an open view, with a peek at the gift card insert.   It was made with the Envelope Punch Board.  I used the retired Slot Punch to keep the gift card in place.

The Hostess Club members made this card at our meeting last month.  Watch France Martin's video HERE for directions to make a batch of gift card holders to have on hand for the holidays - or any day.
Must go place my pre-order now!  Have a great weekend and thanks for coming by for a visit today!
    

Crying Wolf!

Hi there and happy Friday!  Another quick post today with a sample from our Card Buffet.  This cute little wolf was inspired by France Martin posted here on Sep 16th, which was made from the Magnificent Maple single stamp and some punches.  Too cute!

Life in our household has gotten really busy since my brother-in-law is staying with us until he recovers from  hip surgery.  There are several types of therapists making visits.  I'm not sure how often I'll be posting.  Hopefully, the ol' blog won't suffer too much....... I'm just sayin'. 

Thank you for coming by today!
