Here is a card I cased from the February Stampin Sucess! It's a 3X3 size card. You start with a 6x3 hunk of real red textured card stock and score in half. I used my spiral punch in the upper right corner. I used cameo Coral card stock cut at 1x3 layered under my 2.5x3 piece of DSPaper Ginger Blossom. I stamped my saying from my "Many Thoughts" SAB stamp set. I layer it with my Scalloped Punch using more DSPaper Ginger Blossom. I plan on using this card layout at my February Stamp-n-Stack! If you get a chance I would try this layout!! Super Easy!

1st SWAP of the YEAR!!!!!
Well I joined my 1st SWAP of the year! I have been taking a break
from swapping since last September.
SWAP's are very time consuming and after I packaged up 2 FULL boxes
of out dated swaps I decided I needed a break!
I have decided that I love swapping and need to not sign up for so many swaps.
This swap is a NEW CATALOG swap with NEW STAMPS & ACCESSORIES!!!
Did I mention How much I love our NEW catalog??
It's so awesome, new stamps, paper, accessories( rub-on's, glitter, beads & new ribbon)
I used the new stamp set Celebrate Everything on page 142
I also used our NEW DSPaper Ginger Blossom!!
and of course River Rock Ribbon!
I love the color combo used with this paper....
Rose Red & Cameo Corral!!!
This looks so awesome, I just want to EAT this paper combo!!!
It's great for Valentines Day!!!
Does it make you hungry for candy??

Lunch Boxes...

From My Craft Fair!

Sorry I have not posted in a while...

I have been so busy with this craft fair I did last weekend.

When I spend so much time Stamping & Paper Crafting, I actually get

tired of Stamping and don't even want to touch my craft desk!

It's been a week and my desk looks so lonely!

I wonder if anyone else ever feels this same way,

If you do I would love to hear your comments!!

Well my craft show was really slow, we got 12 inches of snow Saturday & Sunday.

I only sold a few things but got some new customers

So I guess it wasn't a total loss!!

My Lunch boxes were decorated with Contraban Paper

I can't remember what company the paper came from.

I had bought it last year!!

So I hope you will enjoy looking at my Lunch Boxes!!!
