Bigger is Better!

Hello my lovelies!

Well my Bigger Stampin Studio is just about complete....sorta.....just a few more things that need to be done before I will call it complete.  My daughter-in-law Lynn placed this Stampin' Up Decor Elements on my door leading into my craft room.  I think she did a great job!!

We had our 2nd Annual Luv2stampinGeorgia Retreat last weekend here at my home in Covington, Georgia.  I will be sharing a video and some great pics over the next few days.  But in the meantime, let me share with you a "small thank you" I gave to my Stamp Club in  August.

 

Aren't these adorable?  The lovely Frenchie came up with this idea last year for Halloween, so I decided to use it this year as a thank you for my lovely ladies.  THANK YOU Frenchie for always SHARING my friend!!

Here is one in Peach Parfait with Matching Ribbon and our fabulous Rhinestones.

Another one using cardstock as the handles, but I think I love the ribbon handles better.

At Convention we received this fabulous stamp set, and I used it to insert a quick note to my fabulous ladies!

Don;t you love the new stamp set "It's a wrap"?  I do, this made a perfect cover for those chocolate favors inside the purse.

That's it for today, I hope you have enjoyed this snippet, and come back for more fun pictures from our retreat this past weekend!!

Remember to hug the ones you love!

 

 

Cute little Owls!

I just love how Stampin' Up gives us these "unique" punches, stamp sets etc.  Here is a sample of what I made with our "owl punch"....:-)

 

I used those Extra Large Paper Clips, they will definitely stay clipped on a book, magazine, etc.  My Grandson Ryan loved them!!!

Love those googlie eyes!  What do you think about that crystal effects added to "seal" in my owl?

Here is another sample.  So easy to make and fun to give away.  I will be making a ton of these for an upcoming Craft Show in November, but in the mean time, some of my Stamp Club Members will win one of this cuties.

Cardstock:  Chocolate Chip, punched 3 times and glued together with Tombow, Red Glimmer Paper, Various DSP pieces I had laying around, whisper white for the eyeballs

Accessories: Tombow adhesive, Crystal Effects (to seal the owl AND glue to the paper clip), Beautiful Wings Embosslits (used the smallest embossed butterly), and large paper clip (usually found at Office Supply stores, etc). 

Remember to hugs the one you love!
