Sickness is over (I think)




First the boys were sick and then of course I was sick. I thought it was over and was able to go away on an amazing retreat this past weekend. I came back and got sick all over again! Argh! It is not even November yet and I have been sick twice! Hopefully this is not a preview of what this season will bring me. I am on the mend and hope to be 100% soon.

I do have a few previews that I have been meaning to show you. This is a cute little box that can hold tags or 3x3 cards. I love the color combination of the Old Olive and Razzleberry. They just look so good together.

I have been busy making some cute reindeer boxes but for some reason the photo won't appear in my post. I will post it later.

Please check out my website for more info on classes!

Christmas Ideas





Here are the projects from the 12 projects of Christmas. I am really excited to make the cards for our projects. The next class will be held on November 7 from 9-11 and November 9 from 6-8. I will be at a craft fair on November 8, so if you are in Gettysburg, PA stop in at the Pike Restaurant and see all the good things we have to offer. I will post a flyer for the event shortly.

Have a super day!

The 12 Projects of Christmas Sneak Peek!


I have been busy designing and creating some fun projects for us to make in November. If you haven't RSVP'd yet, please do so right away. You don't want to miss out on these exciting cards, gift ideas and more!

This first picture is a card I created using My Digital Studio! I LOVE this program. You can create so many things with it. Flyers, Cards, Calendars, slide shows, DVD's, blog designs and digital scrapbooks and more. What makes it even cooler is that you can also print them out using Stampin' Up! print partner. They guarantee the colors will match exactly. That is awesome, especially if you plan to do hybrid projects.

My Digital Studio is 1 day away!

I am so excited that you will be able to purchase the new My Digital Studio from Stampin' Up! tomorrow! This is a GREAT product! So much more than Digital Scrapbooking, card making, calendars and so much more. I think the only limitation is your imagination!

I can't wait to show you all the goodies that I made with this wonderful software. Plus! If you host a $400 workshop in October you can get it for 50% off! How cool is that. Think Christmas presents and more!

Please email me to schedule your workshop now and you will get a little gift from me at your workshop. October is a perfect month to start planning for Christmas Cards if you haven't already. I also like to start making little gifts to give to neighbors and for people at my church. Who doesn't like a hand made gift?

Toodles,
Melissa

More Stamp Camp Photos!




Here are some cards that we made on Saturday. The Halloween card inspiration came from Becky Roberts at Inking Idaho. She is awesome! I am a huge fan of her work. I didn't have all the supplies that I needed to create and exact copy of her card so I improvised. Check out her card here. You have to scroll down a bit but it will be worth it for sure!

If you have any questions about the supplies I used, please email me!

September Stamp Camp Photos


Here are some pictures of the cards and projects that we made at Stamp Camp. We did 3 Halloween projects and 3 Fall projects. I really like the little Batty for You box. It turned out really cute!

I used Old Olive, Basic Black and Whisper White CS. Batty for You Stamp Set and Cast-A-Spell DSP. I made a 2-4-6-8 box and cut the top using the Eyelet lace punch for something different. I also added googly eyes to give it a little extra something.

If you need cutting measurements for the box please email me at stampin4him@gmail.com

More to come...
