Mid-Week Class 2-7-12

Here are some pics of tomorrow's Mid-Week Class we will be making:

I used Regal Rose Cardstock, and Designer paper from the Brights Collection.  Love that paper stack, I ordered at the start of the new catty in 2011 and "still" have a ton left over, it's a great deal!!

Have I mentioned I love our new Framelits in the new Occassions Mini?  Made putting this box together, easy peasy, but it looks fussy!

Side view of the box, sorry for the blurry pic, couldn't get my camera to focus, but I did want you to see the width of the box....1 1/2"

Close up of the handmade roses.....I love how they turned out, and really digging our new stickles!!  So glad the clear one was carried over... :-)

Here it is on it's side........hope my ladies enjoy making this tomorrow as much as I did!

Until the next  time, remember to hug the ones you love, none of us are promised "tomorrow"!

              

 

Fun with Halloween Decor

Hello my lovelies!

I just love all the fabulous Halloween Ideas on our wonderful World Wide Web!  Had to CASE these from the fabulous Dianna Gibbs!  Why mess with a good thing, right?

Here is Sheila diligently creating her Boooooootiful Tags!

Here is Sheila with her finished goodies, as you can see, she was very please with the results, I was too!!!

Here is my Hallowwen tree, looking better and better as I add more ornaments!

Of course this has "nothing" to do with our class, however I had to share this beautiful Rainbow, which I call a sweet smile from our good Lord!  Made my day!!!

Witches Brew Boots

Hello my lovelies!

Boy, it's getting crazy around here and we are not even in November yet!  Whew!

Well, I wanted to share a few pics from my Witches Boot Class I had a couple of days ago with two of my troupers who weathered the rain to attend class.

 

As you can see here we had a grand old time!

The gals diligently creating away. 

 

Our friend Sheila has not been well, but she was a trooper, she came even though she did not feel well and it was raining....now that is a TRUE STAMPER!!!

Mary has yet to miss a class....I mean I can count on 2 fingers in close to 3 years!  You talk about a die hard stamper, that's my girl!!!

 

Ahhhh, great job girls!

A close up of Mary's cute boot.   She used the the lace punch to use as the top portion of her adorable boot!  Love it!

Here is Sheila's boot, she used the black lace that is on our "clearance rack" right now!  RUN, do not walk to purchase it, I love, love, love it!

Witches Boot

Hello my lovelies,

These witches boots are all the rage right now, since Stampin' Up came out with the yummilicious Stocking die! 

I wish I could give credit to everyone who has come up with these adorable creations, but I don't believe I would have enough room on my blog,lol....we have some talented ladies out there!

Anywho, we will be making this adorable witches boot this coming Tuesday, October 11, 2011, starting at 6pm.  The cost of the class will be $5.00....take a peek!

Is this not stinkin' adorable?!!  This would make a great teacher, friend, etc. gift as the center portion has a box to fit some candy, gift card, etc., the posibilities are endless!

I will need to know if you are attending no later than Monday, October 10th by 6pm and your form of payment. 

If your a "long distance" paper crafter and would like to make one of these, contact me directly at designzbygloria@gmail.com and we can discuss how I can get the directions and material to you, and this will include a small postage fee, depending on your zip code.

Until the next  time, remember to hug the ones you love, none of us are promised "tomorrow"!

Punch Art Success!!

Hello my lovelies!

Hope you had fabulous weather like we did here in Covington, Ga!  It was absolutely gorgeous!!!!  I must say I was bummed Mary C. came and then her legs started hurting her and she had to leave....bummer (don't worry she is feeling much better today) then Kathy M. just moved and was blocked in by a ton of boxes and they wouldn't let her out of the house, poor girlfriend......lol  One other gal was sick and just couldn't make it either.

Back to our Punch Art Class last night....we had such a good time, laughing, fellowshipping,creatin' and sincing our calendars.  Whew we got a lot done.....check it out!

Here 2 of my sweetest friends, Jen and Shelly, they ALWAYS have a ready smile and funny stories.  We always have so much fun!

Here are Jen and Shelly showing off their cutie patootie Halloween punch art Devilbear, Frankenbear, mummybear, and vampirebear.....plus see that cute little tin we decorated with the new lucious Silver Glimmer paper in the Holiday mini....ah man, it rocks!

Here is a close up of Jen's fabulous creations.

 

Here are  Shelly's cute little fellas. I love them all!

Here is the cute "surprise" tin we made, I love it!

 
Here is my Frankenbear....

Here is my vampirebear

Mummybear.....and.....

Devilbear.....I love them all, I can't pick one favorite!  I have a little girl birthday card I needed, so I decided to make a "princess" Punch Art Card.....

 

Here are a few close ups....

Close up of her little face.....

Here is a close up of her dress....

A little handwritten mini-poem.......

I "must" give credit for these fabulous punch art tutorials to the fabulous Kim Score you can find her tutorials here.....let me just say, she ROCKS, such talent!  Please drop by and visit her blog, you won't regret it!

Ohhhh, one last thing.  My husband and I attended a friends son ballgame, we call him "Nate the Great", becauuse he is only 6 and plays like a professional, plus it;s so much for to watch little ones run around the bases and love the game without getting all crazy abouit it.  I digress, Beth is Nathan's Grandma and the sun was hitting us right on our eyes at game time, so Beth took a little break, and what did she have with her to keep her a little occupied???

Oh yeah baby, a Stampin' Up Holiday Mini Catalog......so I saundered over and we had a bit of a chat on what her favorite stamp sets were, what were her Christmas cards going to look like, etc. etc.....it was so much fun!!!

 Until the next  time, remember to hug the ones you love, none of us are promised "tomorrow"!

Mid-Week Class "Suit and Dress Card"

Can you believe half of June is already over!  Good grief, almost half of year is gone, where did it go?

Well I know we have had a fun time Stampin' this year, oh and by the way my team has our official Stampin' Up Team Name, we are the "Luv2stampinGeorgia" team......I like it because it goes well with my upline Patty Bennet's team name which is "Luv2Stamp"....what do you think?

O.K, O.K. on to this weeks mid-week class.  We made a gentlemen suit card and a ladies dress card.  At first the girls don't look like they are having, but they are, only they are busy "concentrating" on cutting, measurements, folds, etc.

Hehe,they don't look happy do they, even with homemade cookies from my sweet, gorgeous daughter Monica, what a treat, right?

Mary, Shelly, and her sweet daughter Miranda seem to be enjoying themselves.....at least I think so.... :-)

I think their still concentrating....

Oh, Oh, now this side of the table doesn't look to happy, what's up?

Just kiddin', look at Wendy, she loves her sweet cards, and so do I.......great job LouLou (my pet name for Wendy, I really don't think she likes it though)

Here is Sheila showing off her cute cards, don't you love them!?

    

Here is Shelly and Miranda showing off their team effort on their cards, great job girls, love it!

Yes, Mary always happy to come and create.....love her enthusiam.....:-)

Well, hope you enjoyed them, we sure did.  Until next time my lovely peeps!

Blessings to you all!!

Shelly looks like she is enjoying the class....she is always so good to help me out and make sure everyone is sharing nicely.... :-)

The Infamous Mary and Sheila, gheesh, are they concentrating or what?

Emily and Tracy, I love your cards girls!!!

Mary, one of my "regular class attenders", I can count on one hand the number of classes she has missed, and that was only because she was out of town with her sweet family!!
