Flappy Scrappy Scrapbook


Ok, What is a Flappy Scrappy Scrapbook?
Well it sorta explaines itself, after you untie the ribbon on the cover, this book opens in both directions and has many flaps of cardstock that cover 3 different  openings.  This gives you mutiple spots to scrapbook a special event, my book was made for a special couple (my upline) Deena and Jeremy for a Wedding gift.  I got the idea for my book from a friend I met at Founders circle Sarah Wills, she has wonderful tutorials on her blog.


This is a picture of my book with 2 flaps open,


and now 2 more flaps open, with 3 more ready to be opened and scrapbooked for your special book.  Don't you think this would make a special gift for a family member or friend.

I will have a Flappy Scrappy Scrapbook class on December 5th at 1pm
cost $15.00
I used Autumn Meadows Designer Series Paper for this book, but I bet you can think of a few different possibilities yourself, I'm thinking in the direction of Cottage Wall right now.

Thanks for looking Cindy

Spotlighting in November


 


   November cards we will use Spotlighting and Gradiant Glow techniques.  You have the choice of  spotlighting one or two features on the card as well as a choice of  which direction you will stamp your card.
I know these are not traditional Christmas colors but they are very peaceful, and yes I chose the stamp sets Lovely as a Tree (again) and Wandering Words, Santa had to fly over something so why not these Lovely Sparkling Trees.








Autumn Splendor



My second spotlighting card uses the Autumn Splendor stamp set.  This set is great for spotlighting, we can stamp a plain background and highlight a portion of the leaf to remember how beautiful and brilliant  the colors of the leaves were just a couple of weeks ago.




Now for those of us that like projects-




This is my Santa treat bag, that we will be doing at technique class this month.  I purchased this class from a fellow demo Gretchen Barron, don't you just love him?  Well  he has 4 side kick friends and I am having a class on December 1st to introduce you to them. Santas friends include a reindeer, elf, snowman and of course the lovely Mrs Santa. This class is $15.00  and you will make all 5 treat bags.



Thanks For Looking Cindy

Happy Halloween and a sneak peek


These are a few cards I received for halloween.  The card in the center was made by the Bat Cave  Stamper of the month Cathy Curry, she enjoys making halloween cards. Mitzi and Darlene chose to use punches to make the spider and the cute one eyed  peppermint patty holder and Lori made us chocolate covered pretzels with the cute trick or treat ghost.
Happy Halloween

and now for that sneak peek!!!!







This is my cover for the recipe book that is still Under Construction, that we will be making at Stamp Camp on November 14th. I hope to finish the recipe pages this weekend and move on to the memory book. Those of you that are making the memory book, we will have a sneak peek for you as soon as the stamp set I need for the cover arrives.   If you don't want to miss the fun at Stamp camp with Donna and Cindy contact one of us by Sunday November 1st to reserve your spot.  After November 1st you can check to see if we have had any one cancel or one of the extra seats available.
Thanks for looking have a great weekend Cindy

Christmas Stamp a Stack


   
   These  are the  5 new Christmas Cards I made for my Christmas Stamp a Stack, I know it seams I have used the Delightful Decorations stamps alot this year, but you can see the many styles it can take on.  I added a Santa card and the Dasher card is one I made from a card I received at Founders Circle by Georgia Giguere, you can replace Dasher with your family photo to send to your friends.





I think these cards have something for every one, I made some of them after
swap cards at Founders Circle and the Cincinnati Regionals.





These  are my Snowmen cards and use the Holiday Lounge DSP,window sheets, and glitter.
I have been on a glitter kick this year, it is hard not to love Stampin' Up! glitter.





And finally the final 5 cards include,
yes more Delightful Decoration stamps and the Ornament Punch,
and Holy Family.

10 cards (5 styles)/ $12.00
October 27th and November 24th at 6pm
at my home

Thanks Cindy
