Clearly For You, I can’t get enough

Ciao Bella,

      What a busy weekend …. let me just sat that my oldest son, my sweet baby, has informed that he asked a girl to the Prom…I'm so excited for him, he would say too excited…truth be told I didn't go to any of my Proms… I was never asked ….and my conservative parents wouldn't allow me to go with a couple of girl friends…anyway…..my son's prom is not till May …I promise I will take lots of pictures and share them with you…and of course in doing that ,embarrassing my son … a 2 for 1 in my book ….lol

This put me in such a creative mood this weekend that I was just a creating fool…..and I'm still in love with the stamp set Clearly For You. I had so many comments on my 3×3 card that I made a full size one

I just couldn't stop adding to the card, there are Designer Jeweled Pearls, Antique Brads that look like buttons, ribbon,twine and designer rhinestones….

Look at all that …crazy, crazy going on …….

For the flower … I used my Stampin' Write Marker's directly on the stamp on give the flower all it's color…..and of course there is a lot of sponging of the edges to get that vintage look…..

Also I don't want you to forget  that there is only a couple days of SALE A BRATION left…..For every $50 you spend in Stampin Up products you can receive FREE stuff!!!!! Who doesn't love free!!!

Contact me today to get your FREE Stampin' Up Products…..

Tags Till Christmas

Ciao Bella,

                   I am still busy busy these days getting ready for next months craft shows…this weekend I worked on Gift Tags…but before I share.. I need to share a little secret with you first…In my house we don't use gift tags….oh no the world just might end…I know…years ago when my kids were little, there was all that "some assembly required" stuff, and then when they were older we lived overseas …and I learned that tags and bows don't mail well… So In my house, I buy each person there own special gift wrap…..and yes Including one for me so my Dear Husband and Kids just have to ask "Mom where's YOUR wrapping paper"….and then when all is said and done … all the pretty wrapping either goes into the trash or the fire place…and the thought of my home made tags…going there… is very hard for me…so in my house…that doesn't happen …

Ok …. But for the rest of the world Christmas Gift Tags, are a necessity…and I'm ok that…so let me share with you some gift tags, I made for the craft Fairs ….

Aren't they cute, and SOOOO SOOOO simple ….I used the Tags Till Christmas stamp Set ( 121169) pg. 24 in the Holiday Mini Catalog… And all the stamps in that have a coordinating punch to go with it …it makes it easy to have perfect tags every time… My new favorite punch is the Decorative Label (120907) Extra Large Punch, pg. 24 in the Holiday Mini Catalog….

I'm still working on a super cute way to package these… and I think I found one, however I'm going to reveal that in a tutorial During My 12 weeks of Christmas Special… During this Special ONLY my Newsletter Subscribers will receive a Special Gift email from me containing projects, tutorials and other surprises… This 12 weeks of Christmas will start on October 4th…If you are not a newsletter subscriber, sign up today to you can get your 12 Weeks of Christmas…

If you are still searching for my clue for this weeks free drawing for a $400 Stampin Up! Shopping Spree…scroll down…it's in Saturday's Post…

The Mermaid Rag Bag

Ciao Bella,

         Well, yesterday I spent my day sewing, I know you are scared now aren't you…Me and a sewing machine, Never a good combination…but I have to admit we got along pretty well…slow moving but pretty well…Now you are asking Why?…

I have been asked to have a craft vendor booth and 2 different events here in Hinesville…The first one is a 3 day affair at the Hinesville's Oktoberfest, lots of people and lots of Christmas shopping and the other is the Liberty County Fall Festival another large crowd event…both are next month in October…so I have a lot of getting ready to do… not only do they want all my paper crafting cards and gifts they also want all the vintage fabric items…which means the RagBags…

   So today I thought I would share with you a Rag Bag that to me reminds me of Mermaids…The bag is not finished, I have embellishing to do, but I wanted to give a little something…These are really easy to make too..

Here is a close up of the Fabric… Can you see why it reminds me of a Mermaid…All I need to do is add some "shiny" to it because we all know mermaids are distracted by shiny things…and I'm all set…

The Key to making these bags, is to use the Big Shot Die Cutting Machine(113439) pg. 204 in the IB&C, with the Scallop Square Die( 115950) pg. 207 in the IB&C…

If you are interested in learning to make these one of a kind bags… I offer private classes just for these bags…all you have to do is email me and we can find a time that works for you….

Now for those of you who enjoyed the scavenger hunt for $400 SU Shopping Spree…There is another round starting today…this time it is a little different…

 you need to search for 20 blogs with LNS owl logo, find the clues, when you find 20 clues … now it's a little different this time… EMAIL ME with all 20 clues and I will enter your name into the drawing…and as a bonus for my customers( sorry no demos), I will send you a little treat as well…

to find other Blogs with the LNS logo go to   http://yourhiredscrapbooksupplies.blogspot.com/2010/09/late-night-stamper-scavenger-hunt-round.html 

So what is my Clue….. What Die Did I use to make the Rag Bag?

Have fun and good luck

Just Believe…

Ciao Bella,

              I'm still having fun with the Just Believe Stamp Set (120453) on pg. 109 in the Idea Book and Catalog…..

These were so easy to make, I just used my Stampin' Write Markers directly on the stamp to get a variety of colors….I'm telling you so so easy to make… I did leave the box in the center empty…I'm going to write the name of the person who is going to receive it in the box…just for that personalized touch…..

Just a short post today…. I'm working on the scrap pages for my Vintage Scrapbooking page Class, and creating something special for my Newsletter subscribers…

Don't forget today is the last day to sign up for my Trick or Treat Made Easy Class…..see my classes and events page for more information …

 If you looking for my clue for the $400 Stampin' Up! shopping Spree….keep scrolling down you'll find it ..

Silhouettes on a roll…

Ciao Bella,

              I have been on a roll with this Silhouette Sentiments( Free Hostess Set pg 11) stamp set…Usually I'm all about the girly vintage or the super clean and simple…but I have found this stamp set really versatile…and it lends it self to al sorts of creative moods…Yesterday I mentioned  how great this set was for transitioning from summer to fall…so yesterday I showed you bright colors, today it's a much more fall feel and do I dare to say Masculine as well…

Take a look…

These 3 X 3 note cards are super simple and not a girly flower or heart in sight…I think any male would love to receive these and possibly even give these as well. There is a definite shortage of cards for a man to give in the Thank You category… it seams their only option is basic white with a only a thank you stamped on the front…

This note features just basic stamping and a little Sponging in Early Espresso Classic Ink (119670) pg 169 in the IB&C. It also features the new brads that look like tiny metal buttons, these can be found in the Vintage Trinkets (118764) pg 187 in the IB&C…

On this note card all I did was leave off the Bling….and change the card stock color from Early Espresso to Night of Navy…

On this last close up the only change here was the Card Stock Color Is now Crumb Cake and I added a little piece of Linen Thread ( 140199) pg 190 in the IB&C, to give it a little more texture…

Wouldn't a set of thesee be a great gift at the office for anybody…..These are so easy easy to make that even a 1st time stamper can make these and bask in the glow of "you made these"…..

If you would like to learn to make these, I would love to show you how  or if you need any of the supplies needed to make this just email me and we can something set up ….
