Stamp Camp

Its Stamp Camp time! My next Stamp Camp is scheduled for September 27th. All the details are to the right. This one should be a lot of fun. As I mentioned before the Fall is my favorite time of year. So, most of the projects at this stamp camp are going to be geared toward Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. If you are interested in attending just let me know.

I received my order yesterday from Stampin' Up! and so I'm working on a few projects. I'll be sure to post them this evening.

Blah...

I'm feeling blah...Mostly because I'm pregnant. Don't get me wrong, I'm super excited. I just have what you would call all day "morning sickness." I don't actually get sick, just feel blah all day and just about every bit of my energy is gone. Its making it hard to do anything. Not to mention I have a 2 year old to keep up with. Its harder this time, no lazin' around, ie. naps, like the first time. My coworker, Jennie has been on vacation and I've been holding down the fort here at work. It hasn't been too bad, but when you aren't a 100% familiar with a project its an uneasy feeling. So needless to say I'll be glad when she gets back tomorrow. I think it will help a little, but until the 10th week (magic date the first time around) of pregnancy rolls around, I'm going to feel like this. Just 3 weeks left!


I'm expecting my first of I'm sure several Stampin' Up! orders from the new catalog to arrive tomorrow. I'm sure that will put a little pep in my step. I'll try very hard to post something if I can get around to making anything. Looking forward to my square scallop punch. Gotta love those scallops!

KWerner Color Inspiration Challenge #19

Here's my card for Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration Challenge #19. This is my favorite by far. I love black and white, especially with another color.

Stamp: Heard from the Heart, Priceless
CS: Basic Black, Whisper White, Riding Hood Red (sorry, no basic gray)
Ink: Riding Hood Red, Versa Mark
Accessories: Making Memories Black and White paper & clear embossing powder

Thinking of You....Fall

I'm so glad that summer is winding down. The only positive thing for me in the summer is my birthday, I'm just not a fan of the heat. Now that my birthday has past, I'm totally focused on the fall. I've been thinking of it a lot lately, with all the fall decorations appearing at the craft stores and all the rain we've gotten lately. I thought I would make a fallish card. Enjoy!

Stamp: Three Thoughts (retired)

CS: Really Rust and Old Olive

Ink: Old Olive

Accessories: Fall Flowers DSP, Pewter Brads, White grosgrain ribbon
