Map It!

When I saw the Map It Out and Greetings From photopolymer stamp sets I knew right away that I had to buy them. That's because I have family that lives 800 miles away from me and I miss them. What a fun way to let them know.

Map it

I am really loving the photopolymer stamps because you see exactly were you are stamping and you get a crisp, clean image. You can see from this card that my family lives in Kentucky and I will be sending this card to my mother. I hope she doesn't see this post before she gets the card. I stamped and cut out one of the palm trees, the sun, and the little heart and popped them up with pieces of dimensionals. The sentiment is from Really Good Greetings and it actually says Miss You Already. I didn't want the word "already" and you can omit part of a stamp by inking it with markers. However, I just cut that word right off my stamp. I doubt I would use it that way and I still have it if I decide I want to add it back. This was a fun card to do in my stamp classes to see what states their cards were going to go and to see some of the extras people put on them. One had an airplane on it, a couple of them stamped the bicycle on it, and one person had the pine trees.

Best of Snow

This month's "Best of" stamp set is Best of Snow and includes those adorable hedgehogs that were so popular many years ago. With the Best of Snow set, you get three retired stamps and you will get the never-before-seen Let it Snow image which coordinates perfectly with the Bracket Label Punch. This set will be available until March, 2014. When you purchase 6 or more "Best of" stamp sets you will qualify for a free stamp set from Stampin' Up with the proof of purchase seals saved from the label sheets that come with the stamp set. Once you have them attached to the proof of purchase card you mail the card in and you will get your free set.

I don't know which stamp I like the most, the hedgehogs or Frosty.

Have a Blessed Sunday,

Thanksgiving Turkey

I usually do a turkey card every year in my stamp classes and the turkey from Harvest of Thanks stamp set was perfect for this years card.

Ink: Early Espresso, Crushed Curry

Paper: Early Espresso, Vanilla, Tangerine Tango, Sweater Weather DSP

Misc: Espresso Ribbon, Deco Labels Framelits, Dimensionals, 1-1/4" Circle Punch, 1-3/8" Circle Punch, Label Bracket Punch, Sponge

Tips:

Stamp the turkey twice and punch out one of them, back it with a punched out Crushed Curry mat and pop it up with a dimensional on top of the other stamped turkey.

Sponge some Early Espresso ink aroung the edge of the punched out turkey.

Punch out a piece of Crushed Curry cardstock using the Label Bracket Punch and cut off two edges to use a mat behind the inside sentiment.

I stamp occasionally with friends for fun and when we do this we each bring supplies for a card. It's nice to stamp and have someone else design a card and cut the paper and bring the supplies. With my doing stamp classes every week I cut a lot of paper! Anyway, this was Terri's card which I love. Don't you? Thanks Terri for a great card.

The other day my daughter was visiting. As I often do, I was sitting on the couch with my legs curled up under me and my daughter said I had Jiffy feet. I frowned, wondering what kind of malformation or disease that could be. She's a nurse so she would know these kinds of things. I asked her what that is and she replied, "Your feet look like you've been walking around the Jiffy Mart barefoot!"  Good one Lynn Ann.  I walk around barefoot all the time and had been outside in the yard that day and yes, the bottoms of my feet did look just like that.

Y'all have a great day,

Fall Candle

candle

I decorate my mantle every year in October with a Fall theme including some orange mini lights. This year I added a candle that I embellished with some of my Stampin' Up supplies. I used the birch and chevron paper that is part of the Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit from the Holiday Catalog.  The candle came from the store  where everything is $1. What a deal that was. I wrapped the papers from the kit around the middle of the candle and then added leaves that were stamped and cut out using the Autumn Accents Bigz Die and Wonderfall stamp set. I cut out the leaves first and then stamped them. The gold glimmer leaves gives it a very festive look and it will coordinate with the Thankful banner that I made a few weeks ago.

Here in Florida, we are finally able to turn off the air conditioning and open up the windows. My favorite time of year when I can open up the house. It has been so nice the past few days. I hope you are enjoying the cange in temperatures.
