Shirrise

Another

cute card made by Shirrise with the hexagon punch. The hexagon punch is so cool as can make so many cute projects.

I am off to finish my garden. I got the stakes and plants pulled-cans put away and tomato stands to their home. Now to dig potatoes and onions and will be done!! Has been a nice fall day to do this!!!!

Downline very cool cards

Shirrise (my down line) made this wonderful card!! So simple and cute! The only problem is you have to clean stamps after you stamp each color!!!

Another card made by my down line! How cool!!!

We are in Huron for the weekend at our last Futurity for the season! So great to see our old friends and meet new friends. Hope you have a great weekend!!! Got rain here last night and hope we got some at home!!!

Downline Meeting

Had a great down line meeting yesterday! It is always so good to get together with my down line and have a few goodies, share ideas, and share new techniques. I always learn so much and laugh a lot!!! This is one of Shelle's shares. We also got some shares via online so will be sharing them also!!! Hope you are having a great day!!!!

 

Another Wedding Card

 I made this wedding card for the wedding I attended last weekend! The butterflies added to the card.

 I also

used the envelope liner and black card stock for the envelope! Just love the envelope liners. I worked with the envelope maker this afternoon and the file cards--how fun!! Will show you one tomorrow if I get it finished.

wedding card

I

made this card for Caleb and Megan's wedding that was last Saturday. I used the Modern Mosaic embossing folder, Love and Laughter stamp set, Crotchet Trim, and Natural 7/16 Trim along with some copper card stock.

This

is the card with the matching envelope. It is a copper framelit liner but the picture looks kind of gray.

A

picture of the newly weds-Caleb and Megan!

Have a great day! I am going to the Latchstring in Spearfish to have lunch with some retired friends!

Christmas Thinlit Card

Another thinlit card but this time for Christmas! This has got to be my favorite! It took a lot of time but so worth it.

I just wanted to show you different angles so you could see what the card looks like inside and out.

I thought about making this my Christmas card but after making one I now think not.

Materials used:

Label Thinlet

Northern Flurry Embossing Folder

Rhinestones

Cardstock: Coastal Cabana, White and Glitter 12 x 12

DSP Winter Frost #132341

New Silver Ribbon #132347

Frosted Finishes Embellishments  #132150

Christmas Messages Stamp Set  #131793 or l31790(wood)

As you can tell I love making these cards!

I hope you have a great Sunday!

 

Thinlit card with extra flap

This is another example of the thin lit card by using a piece of  card stock that is 5.5 x 8.5. (half sheet of card stock)

 Put your thinlit on your magnetic pad and bring the card stock over the top of the thinlit so when you run it through the Big Shot it only scores it and does not cut it off.

Run it through the Big Shot and this is the project you will get-yes, that simple. Now you can add more DSP or write a message and fold it under the other flap. 

Enjoy your day! We are headed to an out of town wedding this afternoon. It will be outside so should be fun!!!!

Tractor

Another nice man's card made with the circle thin lit, Harvest Blessings stamp set (#126452), Garden Green inks, Candy Dots, Gorgeous Grunge (#130517).

Boots

 A

cute card I received from my sister, Sherry! She put Crystal Effects on the boots to make them shiny and to look like rain boots. How fun!!!!

Had a great evening tonight! Went to Spearfish to watch Lana run in the barrel futurity! We always enjoy watching our girls run and enjoy visiting with so many friends!! A great day!!!

A Halloween Thinlit Card

How cute

are these thinlit cards? I used the label thinlit and added some Halloween DSP to it that is 2 x 5.25. The Pumpkin Pie label is also a thinlit that you will find with your large card thinlits. I added rhinestones and colored them with an orange Sharpie and added some chevron ribbon. I stamped the witch with white craft ink and sponged around the edges! So fun to make!!!

granddogs plus 1

This

is a picture of my 4 grand dogs and our dog! What a hoot!!! I tried taking a picture and finally with the girl's help we got it done!!! It was a very hot day today so hope it cools off  just a little.

Painters Tape

Happy

Monday morning to you! A great new week has begun!! I made this card with painters tape and idea came from Deb Valdra. I used 3 pieces of tape (the length of the stamp pad) and dabbed it ever so gently (do not get close to edge  or you will get lines of tape)and then peel off and you get the background colors.  I used the stamp set Love and Sympathy (#128652) for this card and the in color stamp pads. I stamped the image with Expresso. You could use any stamp set depending on the occasion. Have a great day!!!

Halloween Holder

This

is a cute table item for Halloween and even with chocolate! I CASED this project for Inkin' Idaho and everyone seemed to enjoy making it and eating the extra Hershey!!!

Club Card

 

I am finally back. We finished all of the barrel racing futurities. We

were excited as they went so well.  It was a lot of work but now so worth it. Enjoyed making a lot of the door prizes for the futurity.

 We made

this card in club class in September!! How much fun are these cards. You can do 2 different thinlit cards. This is one of the cards and the other one is a circle card. I  have so enjoyed making these cards as they are fun and different! These thin lits are not in the catalogs and sell for $32.95 each but one has 8 other thin lits in the package and the other one has 9. The numbers are #133480 for Circle Die and #133479 for this shape. They also work great with the new magnetic platform that is now ready to purchase (#130658) for $39.95. There are a lot of ideas out there so take a look at some websites. This card I used an orange Sharpie to color the rhinestones. I also used the new Witches Brew DSP (#l32185) for the strip that is 2 x 5 1/4. The stamp is stamped with White Craft ink and used the Halloween Hello stamp set (#131721) for $14.95 or wood for $18.95 (#131721)
