Stamp Till You Cramp!!

We had a great event a few weeks ago. SO much fun stamping with everyone. Each of us demos made a gift for each of our guest. We agreed on making a mini clip board, that way even though they are all different, they are walking away with a similar item! Here is what I made... Here is a picture of our event, you can check out more pictures on the crazy stampin lady blog on my side panel...she got some good pictures.
Here are the goodie bags we made up for everyone. Aren't they cute!

And here is the sweets buffet that I had done up for the event! The banner says "sweets" I know its a bit hard to see. The candy was all color coordinated to match our theme. IT looked great!

Hope you can join us next time! It's a great day of stamping!

Pumpkin Festival

Halloween! I love it ! The pumpkins and bats and cats and witches:) I have been having a blast decorating my house and enjoying family outings. Here is a picture of scrapbook page that I plan to put family pictures on soon.

Here is a close up of the cute little Dracula.So on to my family fun! We headed to the Pumpkin Festival the other day and had a blast. Here is a picture of Kamili , she loved how huge this truck was. Here is Kai painting a tile. They had a little craft area set up and the girls were all over it :)
Here is me and the kiddos. The girls were enjoying marshmallows dipped in caramel and chocolate.
And Aaron with little man. Gotta love that smile!

And the girls in front of the reptile cages....

Pars and Rec Cards

Did ya miss me? I know its been a while! Yikes! I am trying...really:) Here are some cards from my Parks and rec class a few weeks ago. I have a bit of catching up to do. I love this color combo! I used a card in the current catty to base this off. It is pretty close but some times you just have to case!

This card is also very similar to the one in the large catty. I think this birthday bakery set is so darn cute!

And here is a Thanksgiving card I made. Simple but clean. These pumpkins are so fast and easy and make such a great accent on a card. Good night and I will see you tomorrow!

October Stamp Club project

SO I forgot! I know I posted the 3-D project we did at my stamp club last month a few weeks ago!Yikes! I had planned to past these shortly after! Well...here it is! Sorry it took a little longer then planned. Here is the scrap book page we did. and the coordinating card is below.

And her is the card open! Who doesn't love pop up bats!

October challenge card

As you guys can probably tell by the last few post....and I am sure a few more to come, I really like making Halloween items! So of course I was up for the Crazy Stampin Ladies monthly card challenge when it said Halloween! This was the layout we had to do, the colors were limited to the ones in wicked cool dsp. So here she is... I was petty happy with the way it turned out! I think the colors work really well together! Thanks for stopping by!

Stamp till you cramp blog hop!

For now, as promised, the blog hop of all the projects we made...and if you didn't make it, then all the projects you missed:)

Baby Food Jar

So this time around I decided to do baby food. Call it a third child thing, but I just don't have time to make my own this time around! So to all the moms out there who star at these cute little jars and think What could I do with these cute things! Here you go! Here is a picture of the top, so you can see the details.
And then the whole shah-bang! Isn't it cute? I filled it with caramel apple flavored kisses that are the same color as Cajun craze. Perfect little treat!

Retreat Swap 2

As promised here is the other swap I did for the stamping event last weekend. I know shocking~ it's Halloween! I LOVE this set! HOw can you go wrong when you can color witch striped tights ANY color you want?

Retreat Swap1

As I mentioned yesterday I attended a stampin retreat at my fellow demonstrator Jamie's house this past weekend. It was a great time with new faces and ideas!

We had to come with two swaps for the event, so here are the two I came up with! I used the same technique on my leaves as my secret sister did for the last gift she gave me. This card was clean and simple, but perfect for fall!

Check back tomorrow for my second card!

Hostess Gift

A demo in my area-Jamie recently invited me t a retreat she held for her downline and sideline. Although I am not connected to her group, she and everyone there were so sweet and welcoming! But if you know me, I don't show anywhere empty handed! So I made her a hostess gift!

Here are two pictures of the bag. I stamped directly on it, then made a cute little hanging tag. I filled it with tissue paper and a piece of this cool "creepy" cloth that I got at the dollar tree(gotta love that place) and of course there was something creepy inside!...

I decorated this neat glass jar I had with our decor element spider. I went a little crazy in my house with these! I think they are so cute! Anyways the orange you see through the glass is a orange spice candle. I looked for purple or black but they all had no sent!

Here is the top details. It is hard to see but the bat is sparkly with black glitter! Thanks for stopping by!
