Thanks for the great idea - using MDS to create the centers for the bottle caps. I would love to see a video on how you designed those in MDS, too.

Great video, Angie. I've seen those little treat holders before, even made one or two, but your video is a wonderful resource and gave some fantastic tips, too. It inspires me to make some for Halloween!

Lovely work, as usual. i do enjoy visiting your blog every day and seeing your new creations. By the way, you missed mentioning the Stampin' Up! Tulip Frame embossing folder that you used on the second sample. Could you add that to your credits?
Floral Valentines
Happy Saturday! I hope you are enjoying your weekend. I’ve enjoyed my morning making two floral Valentine projects. I have really fallen in love with white on white projects but I sometimes have trouble getting good photos. This could certainly be a wedding or anniversary card but I had Val...
I hope you have safe travels home tomorrow, Jan. I enjoyed watching your demonstration at Convention, albeit from afar. It's hard for someone 5'1" to get up close in a big crowd like that. That's why I'm especially enjoying seeing your demonstration samples here on your blog and reading the explanations. Keep them comin'!
Still in SLC and likely to remain so for a little while...
Due to a bad hailstorm in Denver, my flight for Monday morning has been canceled. I was able to rebook for Wednesday morning, so on the one hand: I am sad that I will not see my family tomorrow. I am going to miss two more days of work. But: Stampin' Up! is depositing expense money in my acco...
Sandi, the watercolored backgrounds on your cards is so striking! Very artistic indeed. Hope I can make mine look like that. My favorite tool is the Big Shot, but next would be the tabletop paper cutter. It's super sharp, light to carry, easy to store and take along when I stamp with friends.

Fantastic! I received my prize in the mail on Monday, and I thank you, thank you, thank you! And I appreciate the card you sent, too. It makes it so easy to see how it goes together. Now with your videos, it should be easy to do. My friends are excited about when we try it out during one of our stamping days together. Thanks, Karen.

In honor of Carol, the Winner, Winner, Cheshire Grinner, I've put together a 2-part video tutorial for how to assemble the Hearts a Plenty die. So here's the thing - I like to include lots of tips in my video tutorials, from initial die cutting to final decorations. This is why it's a 15-minute ...
WOW! That Iris Folding card took my breath away, it's so gorgeous. Love the pincushions, too. I'm actually making fabric items for a group meeting this month, and I'll be trying to use one of your ideas in addition to the ones I already have.

Tammy, your tour projects are great. Each one has pushed me closer and closer to buying that stamp set, and I think the calendar may well have pushed me over the edge! Love it.

Baja Breeze Gift Box!
This past Labor Day while surfing the Internet I came across several different ways to package greeting cards for gift giving. One style in particular - a Pizza Box - caught my eye. I had made smaller versions of the Pizza Box for Love Notes (you can view one here.), but had never made the lar...
Sounds like a fun class! I have been sewing since I was 10, which was a really really long time ago ;-) I'd love to win the class. My hand-stitching is really rusty and needs a brush-up.

I DO recognize that stamp set. I just came across a really old card front yesterday - a Christmas wreath made with that set.
It's time for me to upgrade/update my checkbook cover, too. Yours is very cheery and upbeat!

Good Morning Stampers: Welcome to the first ever SUDSOL Blog Tour. For today's tour, I am showcasing the stamp set called "Peace Within". I used both new and outgoing colors. Ruby Red has always been a favorite and I couldn't resist using it one last time before we say good bye. The b...
Judy, your projects are wonderful. That wedding page is to die for, though. Yes, your children and their spouses are all beautiful, and their mama has a right to be very proud indeed. Did you use smooch spray on that page? Love the frame you created, and the use of the bridal lace.

Mar 15, 2010
Julie, I loved your card (clean and pretty is my favorite) and saved it in my files to CASE. I finally got around to it yesterday. I'll be posting two variations of it on my blog tomorrow. I hope you'll check them out. I didn't like the way my tissue paper flowers turned out, so I just used the split cardstock ones instead.
Flowers With Love
I tried another card with my tutorial HERE, and I used both types of paper to make my flower. I cut out my white CS with the Top Note die, and then ran it through the Elegant Bouquet embossing folder. I colored the centers of the flowers with my pretty in pink marker, and then added the flow...

I DO like your little trick, Pennie! Very clever box, and just the perfect project to use the coordinating stamp set, punch and die! Thanks for sharing it.
MOVERS & SHAPERS BOX - WITH EXTENSION TUTORIAL
I LOVE the Movers and Shapers die and the accessory dies that you can purchase to go along with them. This die of the ornament is in the current Holiday Mini Catalog. I wanted to make a box with the Movers and Shapers die, but knew that the end result would be a "too flat box", even Candy Kis...
What a clever name for a fun class. And of course, I'd love to win the tutorial CD, too.
