Stampin’ Up! Dolled Up Birthday Kit and Mother’s Day Family Time!

Stampin’ Up! Dolled Up Birthday Kit and Mother’s Day Family Time!

Good morning! I had a FABULOUS day yesterday! My day started with church, which is not unusual for me on Sunday at all, but what made it even more special is my daughter, Kimberly, was asked to speak during the service. She spoke about God's timing being so much better than our timing. I was very blessed by her comments. Then after church we all went to Cracker Barrel for lunch, which of course was a madhouse, but the food was good, as usual, and I love it when we all go together "en masse"!There were 15 of us today. We were minus Logan because he is still in Rolla for his finals week coming up, then he will be home for two weeks before the summer semester. If all goes as planned he will be graduating NEXT May!

Here's a few pics from the day:

Johnny & co

Johnny showing Cohen the fine points of the game!

Mark & alisa

Alisa & her Daddy sharing a joke! (she's due in less than 10 weeks!)

Liam after

Liam all perky at the other end of the table!

I received some fun gifts from my kids, including a canvas of my 6 kids which matches my Facebook personal page header! I love looking at that picture, and now I will have one hanging in my home! Yay! (I have to admit, it sure is a nice perk to being the photographer's mom!)

Before I start my day today, I wanted to show you one of the cards we made at Krystal's party on Saturday using the Dolled Up Birthday Kit #133913 $15.95 :

Dolled up 1

Everything used on this card front is included in the kit, including the kit-exclusive photopolymer Happy Birthday! For the inside I sponged laid the Tea Lace Doily from the front on the cardstock, then sponged through the design and around the outside edges with the Sponge Dauber and the Soft Suede ink included in the kit. The only addition to the card NOT included in the kit is the inside verse from One In a Million.

Stampin’ Up! Secret Garden!

Stampin’ Up! Secret Garden!

I know this post is later than normal, but I'm here!

This card is one from my Punch/Technique Class this month. I call it "Embedded Embossing with Framelits"!

Embedded framelit embossing 1
©Stampin'Up! ™1990-2013

I stamped the Secret Garden flowers with Pretty in Pink ink on Pink Pirouette and the leaf stem with Soft Suede on Very Vanilla, then cut them out with the Secret Garden Framelits. After SNAILing them to my card front I ran it all through the Big Shot with the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Folder.

Embedded framelit embossing 2
©Stampin'Up! ™1990-2013

The inside is stamped with a phrase from Feel Goods in the Occasions Catalog, and EVERYTHING, inside and out is sponged with Soft Suede ink!

It just wouldn't be Vintage without dirtying it up with sponging, would it?

Here's a close up of the embedded flowers with Basic Jewel Pearls accents:

Embedded framelit embossing 3
©Stampin'Up! ™1990-2013

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the 5/8" Very Vanilla Flower Trim!

We counted a new package of them the other night. At $6.95, they are really a GREAT DEAL because the two yards contained 100 flowers! WOW!

Embedded framelit embossing 4
©Stampin'Up! ™1990-2013

Notice the ribbon trim along the front? It's actually one of the Flower Trim, but I cut between the spiraled "petals" and found this really delicate scalloped ribbon! After SNAILing it to the card front, I added the strips of pearls from the Basic Jewels Pearls pack.

Oh, BTW, the Designer Paper at the bottom of the card is Tea for Two!

That's all for today! Today I plan to play with some new ideas! I actually woke up the other night dreaming about a technqiue variation I'm dying to try!  Don't worry! If it works out I'll for sure show it to you!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! That’s the Ticket Giftcardholder and a Resolution.

Stampin’ Up! That’s the Ticket Giftcardholder and a Resolution.

Whoa. I just stopped and checked my blog and found out I haven't posted since New Year's Eve! How could that happen? I'm SO SORRY!

It's not that I haven't been stamping. I've been stamping, and sharing at workshops, alot. It's not that I didn't get well from my sickiness around New Years, I'm doing great. It's not that I didn't travel to Orlando for the Stampin' Up! Leadership Conference, had a great time, learned TONS and brought back beautiful inspiration and ideas!

It seems like I go along posting pretty regularly for awhile, and then one day I miss a day of posting. That seems to derail my blogging "voice" and it's hard to get back to it.

I don't usually make New Year's resolutions and while it's a little late for that, my resolution for 2013 is to blog EVERY DAY. Think I can make it? We'll see. Now that I've shared my resolution, I am now accountable to YOU.

I have made a few changes this month. I've started a new organization system to try to keep myself on track better. It's helping, I think. "Blogging Daily" needs to be added to that list.

A rather significant but also delightful change is that I've started keeping my 5 1/2 month-old grandson, Liam, 2-3 days a week. At his house. At least most of the time. So I have to think more deliberately about my "To Do" list and take stuff with me. Sometimes I take the right stuff, sometimes I don't. But the upside is that Liam is an adorable, bright, snuggly little sweetheart that I am absolutely in love with and am enjoying every minute in his presence! How do girls with little ones juggle being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator too? Guess I'm getting a tiny taste of that.

So changes. Change is usually good, sometimes painful, but often for the better. Here's my first creative share for 2013:


Thats the ticket 1
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

A fun mix of current and new products on this one! I used the Occasions set, "That's the Ticket" that I actually received last September during my Founder's Circle tour of the Stampin' Up! stamp manufacturing plant in Kanab, Utah. The "happy VALENTINE'S DAY" was stamped in Versamark ink  and then embossed with Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Emboss Powder and my Heat Tool. It was then punched out with the Ticket Duo Builder Punch. I added a tiny knot of 1/8" Very Vanilla Taffeta ribbon, a Vintage Trinket pin, and a Very Vanilla Flower Trim flower with Glue Dots. The heart was cut with a Hearts Framelit and dry embossed with the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Folder and the Big Shot.

Here's the inside:

That's the ticket 2

I CASED the construction design for this project from this swap I received at Leadership from Judy Garza:

Garza 1
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

Isn't it gorgeous? Judy used the Occasions set, "Just Married" with Pool Party colors and Silver Glimmer Paper! (btw, you can get a free package of Silver Glimmer paper just for hosting a $150 party from now through March 22!)

Judy's design would be perfect for a giftcard for the happy couple!

Garza 2
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

I do love it when I can take a design and stretch it for another occasion!

That's all for today. I apologize for my wordiness, but I hope I've made up for it by showing you two projects instead of just one!

Now to get busy finishing my prep for my "Best of Birthdays" class tomorrow afternoon (still have a couple of seats left!) and my "Yes Mam!" Downline Meeting tomorrow night!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
