Extra Try Stampin Challenge #315

Had a card to make for a card class on Tuesday and thought I might as well follow Try Stampin's challenge.  Turned out nice I think and I hope the ladies enjoy it.  Be sure to check out the inside as it has a pop out.  I used the Balloon Adventure bundle in the Stampin' Up Occasions Catalog. This is such a wonderful bundle as it can be used so easily for anyone!!  I've got more from this set so stay tuned.
 click here if you haven't come from the Try Stampin' site and you can go see all the other designers cards.  If  you have come from Try Stampin' thank you for stopping by, I so love to hear from those who come and really do read all the comments.  SOOOO if you would be so kind could you find it in your heart to leave me a few words?!   Have a wonderful week and I'll be back so stay tuned :0)
Optional technique: three different patterns

Try Stampin' 314 Baby Animals



Sometimes it seems that our business comes in bunches, know what I mean.  Activities seem to bunch up and I often wish I could spread them out.  My card for this challenge came together quickly and that is good since I've been busy. I turned the card since I wanted my tags to be big enough to hold my congratulations sentiment. The theme: Baby Animals was perfect since I had a baby card I needed.     I do hope you'll play with us and show us your card.
       Have a wonderful day, find a spare min. or two and relax with your stamps, paper and ink!!



I decided to play along with a color challenge over on Fab Friday color challenge

Are you ready for flowers? Try Stampin On Tuesday #313

I decided to do another challenge this week, we as design team members are on a rotation- half of us are to post every two week and my scheduled week was last Tuesday.  I wanted to stamp so I decided to join in on this sketch.   I actually made two cards neither follows the sketch exactly but I'm sure you'll be able to see the similarities.  Thanks for stopping....


This one is water colored.

Try Stampin' on Tuesday

  When I designed this card front I had no idea what I would do with it. Sometimes when we make cards we use the same design and I wanted to try something different.   I ended up needing to angle my piece the opposite direction because I cut it backwards and the opposite side of this DSP just wouldn't work.  I hope you'll have fun using this and will join us by downloading a card on Try Stampin's page.  click here Try Stampin'  if you didn't come from that page and would like to see all the other designers ideas and join in on the fun.
   If you look clear to the end of this posting you'll see the inside of the card that I decorated with the scraps.



Optional theme is Angles

My first for Mega Magnolia March 2017

My last posting I told you about the Magnolia March 2017 event that I'm a part of. I uploaded my first project today as I'm on for Saturdays.  Here it is ;0)





The Stampin' Up Window Box thinlit die is so easy to use and this shows an unusual way to use it.  

Thanks for watching, if you go to my you tube channel you'll see all the other designers and can pop onto their videos.  Some of us are having drawings for gifts.

Swirly bird and Exciting News for the month of March

Here is the card I said I have up yesterday. Sorry I didn't get it done I was pretty bushed after my two events on Tuesday. Today is Wed and I've had a little boy this afternoon so that has kept me busy.  He's napping :0)  so I'm taking advantage of the quiet and getting some things done for Thursday.

Here is the card that the ladies, some new stampers made on Tuesday evening.  There were about 18 signed up to come and with that in mind I had a fairly simple card for them.  All 8 (yes 8) that attended had a good time and enjoyed making the card.  It was actually very nice and easier to have one on one visiting with fewer attending.


Thanks for stopping by, I have an exciting bit of news for you.  I've been invited to be part of the Mega Magnolia Madness Event on You Tube.   They showcase the Tilda stamps and every day of the month a new video will be added.  I'm on for Saturdays and there is at least one other designer for every day of the month. Have a wonderful day!  also want to thank those that left comments, I really really appreciate it!!!!!!  ;0)     Vicki

here is the link to my video of the DT package sent to us it also has the links for all the other designers in the description section ;0)        https://youtu.be/6t0zjeROiek
