A few Pre -convention samples

There was a pre-convention event at the Hilton that I attended.  Here are a few samples of items we made and treats we received!

A week away at Convention 2012

WOW!  What a week of firsts!  I flew by myself for the 1st time, was in Utah (and Texas) for the 1st time and it was my first time at SU Convention!  I won prizes, met great people & make lots of projects!  Came back TOTALLY rejuvenated!  Oh, and did I mention I pampered myself with a 30 minute massage while at Convention?  Look for more details to come!

I would just like to thank everyone for being patient with me over the last month.  I've had a tremendous amount of turmoil going on in my life and now I think I'm getting back on track.  A man who was near and dear to my heart, who was like a father to me for over 25 years passed away suddenly and I took it very hard.  On top of that I went back into the work force full time after 10 years and my youngest daughter was in the ER 3 times.  This all happened within 3 weeks and I just needed to step back.  Thank you again for your patience and support!  You'll be seeing posts from me soon!

scrapbook page edge

Good morning Spring!  I've finally had a few minutes to sit down and scrapbook my Christmas pictures.  While getting everything ready, I decided to try using my SU Edgelits and make a scrapbooking border.  Here are the results!

Lining it up each time (3x) was a tad time consuming but once I got the hang of it it worked out nicely!  Enjoy your weekend!

CASE'd SAB card

Thank you Becky Jensen for the wonderful card that I was able to CASE!  This beautiful card was created using the SAB set Fresh Vintage, SAB dsp Everyday Enchantment, SAB brads, edgelit die and textured impressions embossing folders and scallop circle die

Thank you mini card

I decided to make some cute mini cards to attach to gifts.  Here are two examples.  The first one doesn't use a stamp set at all!  Just a punch, an embossing folder and some ribbon!  The second one uses the stamp set Everyday Wishes along with a few punches and dsp.  How easy is that?

Vintage fabulous friend

This card is so elegant.  I've been trying to use up my 2010-2012 In Color card stock since it will be discontinued as of June 1st.  I started with Peach Parfait c.s., used some Just add Cake dsp and the Fresh Vintage stamp set from SAB.
