Whooo's Your Valentine? National Papercrafting Month: January 2013

Happy Thanksgiving and card WS

                                       Just want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving
                                                   and may you all have a safe holiday weekend.


I also wanted to share  few pictures from November 17ths Christmas card workshop, we used the Pear & Partridge WOTG kit and made 15 cards.  This was Angela's first time at a  ws and she did a wonderful job with her cards. The first picture is Anglea and Shaun, Anglea is getting the hang of second generation stamping. We also did some embossing on the cards.

              This next piture Tiffany and Shaun, they are pros now.  Shaun as always is changing his up a bit.

                                         Anglea decided to do a sideways background, came out great.

                                                             Tiffany's finished cards.  Looking good.

 

                             Angela's finished cards. Looking good, cannot even tell that this was her first time.

I am pleased to announce that Close to my Heart is enhancing their November promotion.

Here is how it will work:

Our November promotion is called Capture the Date, Capture the Savings and its main feature is the November SOTM which is a simply fabulous calendar set, when you make a $50.00 purchase, you can then get the SOTM for a mere $5.00 under our SOTM program, you can then purchase one additional stamp set from the Idea Book for 50% off.

From November 1 though 30 we will be donating $1.00 from every sale of the November SOTM set to the American Red Cross for hurricane relief.

Every dollar counts when it comes to helping our friends and neighbors.

I hope all of you will be able to participate in the months promotion.

Halloween Daybook fun

This is a little daybook that I put together for Tiffany's daughter Kayleigh. I thought Tiffany would enjoy filling it with halloween pictures and different things for the month of October.  When Tiffany came down for world cardmaking day she brought alot of different papers with her, so I used some of those to make this daybook.  Hope you like.

                                         I do not know the names of the different papers, sorry.

World Card Making Day

Yesterday was World Card Making Day, and I spent the day with Tiffany and Shaun working on some Halloween cards so I thought I would share them with you. The card with the mummy on it is our versions of  a card done by Leanne over on the CTMH eye candy board on FB, I just loved it and it was great use of the Tim Holtz brick wall embossing folder, we all made little changes to it so that it was ours, and not exactly  like Leanne's,  I am not sure why my pictures are a little blurred, my hands must have been shaking a little and I didn't realize it.

These first set of items are mine

 This set was created by Shaun, he added some green and autumn terracotta to his wall to give it a mossy, dirty look, came out great, he also decided to draw his cat's face on and used his wiggly eyes in the word halloween, gave his bat some fangs.

This next and final set belong to Tiffany, she had this cute little bat that she added to her coffin, we had alot of fun working on all of these fun crafts.

                                        This is our mummy cards, thanks Leanne, for the idea.
