Another Fabric Flower and More Pages.....

I've had so much fun making these beautiful fabric pins. The best part is....they're sooooooo easy ! Don't you just love the vibrant colors in this one ? And the Summer Sun corduroy button in the middle ? I just love it !! If you'd like to learn how to make these gorgeous pins, give me a call or drop me an email to set up a date.

Here are a few more 12x12 double page spreads from the swap I hosted at Leadership 2010. I love the color combinations and the variations in the layouts. Check out the use of punches to make borders -- very, very nice !! If you're a demonstrator and would like to join this swap at Convention, drop me an email (almondy1261@aol.com).

Until later....have a Stamp Happy week !!

12x12 swap at Leadership 2010

Each year at Convention and Leadership I host a 12x12 double page swap. Here are a few more samples of the swaps. It amazes me the creativity that some of these ladies have. All swaps were EXCELLENT. Hope this helps to get you creative juices flowing. For info on my new Scrapbook Club, drop me an email: almondy1261@aol.com.

And here's a beautiful card that I received from Melissa Riker -- what a wonderful surprise - made my day ! Love the simplicity of the card and the color combination -- isn't she just the sweetest thing ....

And, here's a fabric pin that I made last weekend while visiting my fellow demonstrator friend Carol. She's made tons of these beautiful pins to sale at craft shows and bazaars. The fabrics and color combinations she uses are gorgeous ! So... would you like to learn how to make these fabric pins ?

Embossing Folders

I'm really liking the embossing folders -- they add so much to the card ! By using the embossing folders, you take a simple card and make it a WOW card -- soooo easy !! As you can tell from the following cards, I really like using punches too - again, punches just add that extra touch. Have you seen the new style punches that Stampin' Up! is offering ? Drop me an email or give me a call if you would like additional information about the embossing folders or punches. Back to my craft room to play some more !! Enjoy..........

Scrapbook Pages and more.....

Here are several projects for your viewing pleasure:

The scrapbook pages are from the 12x12 double page swap that I host every year at Convention and Leadership. These pages came from the swap at Leadership 2010. If you want to see and learn more about scrapbooking, drop me an email or give me a call -- ref my monthly scrapbook club.

Here's a picture of my creative work space after Steve put up the racks for my punches -- turned out rather nice, don't you think ? I've got lots of stamping and scrapbooking to catch up on -- it'll be easy now that I have everything right at my fingertips.
