Reason for the Season

Hi All
Sorry I have been gone for a while.  I have been working on some beading projects and the time just gets away from me.  I am sharing a card I did with Reason for the Season (139730) and the Festive Flower Builder Punch (139682).  You can buy then separate or save 15% and bundle (140847).
I used Very Vanilla card stock as my base and Gold Fold Paper to mat it with.  The Striped Vanilla Ribbon is gorgeous.   Here we go...



This set is a 2 step Stampin' Set so I was able to stamp in the leaves in Artichoke.  I colored my pearls for the center of the flower with Sharpie's New Metallic Gold Marker.  Hope you enjoy.  Don't forget to tune in next Saturday 11/7/15 at 7am to check out our November edition of the Jacksonville Starz Blog Hop.  I am sure you will see some amazing projects by the Starz.
Don't forget you can order any of these great products on line 24/7 on my SU website or by contacting me to place an order for you.  Until next time  Be kind and Do One Thing Today that Makes YOU Happy!

Jacksonville Starz Blog Hop

SORRY BUT WE HAD A COMPUTER GLITCH AND THE OTHER STARZ POST DID NOT GO THRU....YOU CAN STILL CHECK OUT THEIR WORK BY STOPPING ON THEIR SITE.  WE HOPE TO HAVE THE ISSUE FIXED ASAP. 

Good Morning, I am so glad you were able to join us for our October edition of the Jacksonville Starz Blog Hop.  You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from Cari's Verschueren blog.  This month we are inspired by the Holiday Season.  We were challenged to create a "Holiday" card.  Since this is October I decided to do Halloween.   I love doing different folds and today is no different, I used a Tri Shutter Fold Technique.   So follow the hop to see what our amazing Starz have created. 





 I used a couple of stamps from Amount the Branches, Sweet Hauntings &  Cheer All Year.  I added a little Happy Haunting Designer Series Paper.  The front & back panels were embossed with the Woodland TIEF then I sponged the trees with White Craft Ink to highlight them. 

The next stop on the hop is Amanda Sevall.  Thanks for visiting and I hope to see you next month.

What do you do with a Broken Foot?

YOU CRAFT!!!!!
Today's share is two fold, I have a card done with the Double Gate Fold technique using Among the Branches stamp set and Happy Haunting Designer Series Paper both are from the Holiday Catalog.


But wait!  Some of you know that I broke my foot last Friday and I have been forced to have some down time.  I love to stamp but that isn't my only craft, some of the ladies that come to my Library classes have gotten me into beading.  Thanks to Chris & Denise,  I am hooked on the little crystals and love love love spending time creating some wearable art.  Here is what I have made in some of my down time. 


This is a Bobble Bracelet and the pattern comes from Deb Roberti at Around the Beading Table.  She is a fabulous designer and I love her patterns.   I used Swarovski pearls and bicones for my bracelets and think they are stunning.  I am working on my hardest project yet, but there isn't enough done to share.  Maybe next time.

I did a class at the Lee County Library this past weekend and the ladies were delighted to do the Exploding Handbag.  Here are my samples used for inspiration.


We used a 12 x 12 Basic Black Cardstock for our base and each person did the flap and decorations in a different color polka dot.  We used the Black Glimmer Paper from the Holiday Catalog to give it some spunk. The Bow Builder, Petite Petal & new Curvy Corner Trio Punches were used along with a couple of small circles.  We used a retired border punches for our edges.  Here is a link to the Tutorial on Split Coast Stampers.

Have a great week everyone, we are trying to stay afloat with all this rain.  Glad we have a boat in the yard :-).  Until next time...Be kind and Do One Thing Today That Makes YOU Happy!

WHAT WILL YOU STAMP #29 TRAVELER

Hi All!
This week's stamp set on WWYS is Traveler.  I love this set but have found I don't use it much so I was very excited when it was this week's challenge set.  Each week the talented team on WWYS select a different set, they each design a card or project using this set.
WWYS #29


My interpretation:


I used the Stair Step Fold  technique to create my card.  Along with Traveler I used The Open Sea stamp set.  My card base was done in Blackberry Bliss, matted in Crushed Curry & Island Indigo Card Stock with a bit of Bohemian & Typeset Designer Paper.   I did use a tiny piece of Graphic45 Come Away with Me paper for the front tag which is matted in Basic Black.  I loved the way it mirrored the ship from Traveler and the phrase "Catch the trade winds in your sails, Explore. Dream. Discover.".  Here is a link to the tutorial on Split Coast Stampers.  I hope you all enjoy, my product list and complete instruction can be found on These are My Stamps #4259.
