And the WINNER is........



Thanks so much for all your advice on my stamping problem. Your ideas made me laugh, you were very creative, the problem was I just was to busy I didn't have time to stamp or try any of your suggestions. The 1st 2 pictures show my travel bag the 1st is at the airport waiting to board the plane and the second was on the plane when I was getting ready to Stamp, our flight was 4 hrs long so after my meal of wheat and cheese crakers and diet coke I decided I need to work off all those calories from that large meal. I made 52 thank you cards with a lots of versamark and tone on tone stamping. I don't think they turned out that bad for my cramped stamping area and a few turbulance bumps.
I had a total of 12 comments left on the blog and my email so.......
the random draw winner is Vicky T. (you may pick from any of the six SAB items)
Thanks again you all are great friends! Cindy

Ink Stamp Create- on a road trip




Ok I am on a road trip with extremely limited stamping supplies. This will be a challenge as I am used to stamping in the Bat Cave that I have a plenty of choices. My 1st challenge is I have no whisper white cardstock.(This could be interesting, I might be using hotel stationary) Do you want to win a Sale-a-bration stamp set? Leave a message on my blog this week and your name will go into a drawing to win a free set. Got any ideas on my no Whisper white problem?
leave me an idea. Ok this road trip gets better, in my 5 star hotel we don't have wireless internet in the room so I am setting in the lobby. Whats a girl to do?

Weddings






These are a few of the wedding invitations I have been working on over the last month. The best reason most brides want to make their own invitations is to have an original invitation, that no one else has seen. The other reason they make their own invitations, is to save money. The service I offer Brides is the opportunity to customise their invitations, to fit their taste and budget. I also offer my studio as a place to assemble the invitations, the bride invites her bridesmaids, friends and family members to help with assembly, this is usually a fun time for the bridal party.
Thanks Cindy

Stamp Camp Choice #1 ( Repost)_
















Spring Stamp Camp with Donna and Cindy
Donna and are really excited about our spring stamp camp, we are making a emergency card kit. You will make 12 cards and 6 gift cards that you can have ready to give in a emergency. You will decorate the card suitcase to keep them in. This kit choice uses Parisian Breeze Speciality paper, this is the newest designer series paper from Stampin Up! that is printed on textured card stock. This kit choice requires stamping that we love doing. We will make these cards by moving through stations, and you may change the sentiments if you wish with others we will have on hand. If you don't like to stamp but would like to have a card kit, see choice #2 that requires no stamping on the previous blog post using the Simply Scrappin' kit "Best Ever"
See Donna or I to reserve your spot- $30.00 includes your kit and lunch You will need to reserve your spot by Sunday March 15 th so that we have time to get the supplies here and prepared. These pictures do not do justice to the cards, the card stock has a great texture and complements the ribbon and embellishments.Feel free to stop by and see them in person.
Thanks for looking Cindy
