Kindness Card


I swapped cards with Denise Lewis at Leadership and was inspired by her card to create this one. Her card was in blue and kraft. I did not have the printed paper that she used so I used what I had. I'm really pleased with the way this card turned out. It was actually very easy to do. I stamped the saying on the white that is the inside of the card.

I'm going to compose some posts and upload images so that I can schedule them to post this week. That way I'll be assured of getting some posts up this week.

I have to do some studying this week, as well as go to campus to take a test, so it's a good thing I learned how to schedule my posts. Stay tuned.

Friends


Hello everyone. I have not been consistent in my posting here this month. I have a few cards to show you this week and I will need to be designing more because I'm having a Just Birthday Cards stamp camp on February 6th. Hopefully I'll have cards and projects to continue posting a little more consistently.

Today's post is a CASE of one I received in general swapping at Leadership. The original card was done by Cindy Petersen. I made a small change but only because I did not have the die to use to make the oval she put on hers, but I think this one came out nicely. The ladies at stamp camp like it.

Enjoy.

Parting is such sweet sorrow

I have been having a great time in Phoenix. The weather has been marvelous! The stamping has been great; the meetings have been good, and the people I've met have been so nice. I have enjoyed being with my good friends Tiffany and Robin, and making new friends, Patti and Jenn, and several others. Oh, did I mention the food? It has been great!!!!

It will be sad to leave, but I'm looking forward to getting home, too. No picture to add because I have my little mini-netbook with me. I'll be posting once I get home.

Save the Date!



I'm still in Phoenix! You see, SU's Leadership Seminar is Thursday and Friday, and there is a Regional Training Seminar on Saturday! So lots of training going on!

I made this little date book for two special ladies that I'll be hanging out with at Leadership - my upline, Robin Merriman, and my roommie for the trip, Tiffany Bauer. I've had one of these little books for over a year. There is a little page for each month. I have entered all the important dates that I need to remember for each month. Using this little book means I don't have to copy all those dates to a new calendar at the end of each year.

I hope you enjoy this little date book!

In Phoenix


I'm still in Phoenix for SU's Leadership Training. If I get an opportunity, I'll update this swap. Just in case I don't get to update, I wanted to schedule something that would post while I'm away. I'm trying to get back to posting on a regular basis and this helps.

This is another swap that I made for Leadership. I people like my swaps.

Leadership Swaps


Hello everyone! I will be attending Stampin' Up's Leadership Seminar in Phoenix. On this date, I'm actually traveling there. I wanted to show you the swap cards that I made. Here is one of them. I embossed the tree and the saying.

I'm looking forward to the warmer weather in Phoenix and seeing the friends that I have made through Stampin' Up.

Stay tuned for more tomorrow!

Box of Cards



Happy New Year everyone! It is very cold here in Virginia. I think the word blustery would be appropriate for today. My cats and I are inside where it is warm and I am grateful for that. On of my cats, K-Bird, turned 19 on New Year's Day! Happy Birthday to him!

I made a box of cards for a dear friend for Christmas. I can finally show you the picture of the box and cards now. As I had stamp camps over the past few months, I made extra cards to give as Christmas presents; that's what I put in the box. The cards are a variety of birthday, thinking of you and sympathy cards. Everyone needs those types of cards.

Enjoy!
