Mother's Day Card and Box

Just wanted to share a new class that I have planned for May 1st. It's a cool box holder with 4 cards that would be perfect for a Mother's Day gift or a great birthday present for a dear friend.

The class will be held from 7:00 to 10:00 pm in my stamp room and will include many really cool accessories like the corduroy buttons, Kraft Ribbon and Urban Oasis Designer Series Paper. The cost is $25.00 (pre-pay when you RSVP) BUT if you register for this class by April 17th and pre-pay you will be able to get the class for $20.00. Just call or send me an email to sign up!!!

As promised, here is one of the cards I made to swap at the Stampin' Up! Regional meeting in London, Ontario....hope you enjoy it.

I used the Dear Friend stampset, Whisper White, Certainly Celery, Barely Banana, Regal Rose cardstock and the new Tea Party Designer series paper.

The top part closes and opens to reveal the little sentiment. I used the Forever Flowers Standard Wheel and the 5/8 inch grosgrain ribbon in Regal rose. Although it's not showing up too well, I used Crystal Effects on the roses to give a little sparkle....

Hello Again,

Well as many of you know I attended the Stampin' Up! Regional Seminar this weekend in London, Ontario....What a good time, we (my stamping demo friends, Chris, Keri and Caroline) swapped, did make and takes, learned some new ideas and did plenty of laughing...especially when Caroline and Keri got the lucky draw to end up as the 10th car in the US customs line and got their car searched....I made some great new contacts from the Canadian Stampin' Up! Demonstrators...they could not have been better hosts to us. I can't wait to share the swaps that I received with you all.

This is one of the swaps that I was getting ready for the Regional meeting. I'll share the finished product in another post later today.

This was at an event hosted by Heather (An extremely talented demonstrator and a wow presenter at Saturday's SU event) We did a great make and take consisting of a box and 4 cards using the stampset Fifth Avenue Floral (item #113734) which we are calling the Manhattan flower set....check back to see some additional photos!!
