Hello all, One of the ladies at work needed some Christmas invites so these are the samples I made for her, of course these were cased from splitcoaststampers website. I think they are both cute. She wants the elf one but the elves looked to old for her kids party so I am doing the same background but with Santa in the middle.
Yikes Christmas where has the year gone!!!

Here is my version of the snowman Frankie. I used this icicle technique that was pretty cool but my patience for watching paint dry is not good. You lay out a thin line of crystal effects on a piece of wax paper make a few drips and sprinkle with glitter wait an hour or so then peel it off the wax paper and use crystal effects to glue it down. VIOLA!

Today I had a Christmas card class and Liz, DS Jan, LaToya and last but not least my new friend Stephanie. This was Stephanie's first time stamping with us and I hope we didn't scare her away...Stephanie was a SU website referral. It was nice meeting you and hope to see you at future classes Stephanie.

We used the Big Shot and Embossed, used some glitter some more than others and you know who you are...hmmhmm! We also had some yummy chicken from the local place in Gardena and chinese chicken salad from G.N.B.Y cafe also in Gardena, We were very chickeny! All of these cards were cased from one source or anther, But the Frankie was my favorite after I was finished I showed the DH and he said shouldn't he have bolts instead of arrows, so I modified the arrows from the going my way punch to look like bolts. If you would like directions to this and the snowman card go here: dawnsstampingthoughts.typepad.com
This lady is awesome! I am not one to come up with new ideas and thank gosh for women like her who's creativity is shared with stampers such as myself. Thanks Dawn! How about thinking of attending a class in November? Thanksgiving already here ,oy the seasons are upon us! Well it's time for this turtle to turn in, everyone have a great night.

Family Get Together

This is the card I made for my Brother Jerry for his birthday!
On Sunday the 27th of April we had family over at my aunt Rose's house for a reunion of sorts, We missed a few components such as my older sister Alawn and my bil Michael,My uncle George and aunt Josie and their family. We had a great time catching up and remembering. We also celebrated my Brother Jerry's birthday with cake and singing I think he really dug that. Our youngest Grand daughter Jazz had a Birthday a few days before so Jim and I gave her card with a gift. Here is a picture.
My Mom Helen, Aunt Pauline, Aunt Rose, Aunt Margo and my Uncle Al. My Aunt Pauline came from Nevada for a visit all by herself she is so brave!
This card was going to be my Grand Daughters Birthday card , But I thought that it was a little too old for her. I cased this from a woman named Michelle Zindorf a wnderful artist whom I admire. Trust me my card is no comparison!! Anywhho while I was doing this card I thought that they looked like pineapples. So I made a card for My hubby for his birthday, that oddly resembles another one of Michelle's other cards...HEHE!
