Sept. 29th Stamp-A-Stack
I’m only posting two of the five cards that we made in my Stamp-A-Stack tonight as one is the card that I made with the shimmer paint and the Kind Thoughts Brocade Decor Stencil that I posted last Friday, and two are going to be used in my Card Camp this coming Saturday. So if you want to see those two cards, check back after Saturday when I will do a Card Camp post and include those as well as the other two cards we’ll make at Card Camp. Okay, hope that wasn’t too confusing!!

This card uses the Embrace Life and Sincere Salutations stamp sets. I also used Elegant Eggplant and Always Artichoke card stock.

The Embrace Life set # 114958 is a set of five stamps for $25.95.
Sincere Salutations #115068 is a great greeting set of eight stamps for $23.95.

For this card I used the Simple Friendship stamp set, Chocolate Chip and Almost Amethyst card stock and the Scallop Edge punch.

The Simple Friendship stamp set #113397 is a set of seven stamps for $25.95, and the Scallop Edge punch #112091 is $15.95.
If you would like to attend any of my classes, or order supplies to make your own cards, please call or email me! Happy Stamping!

Jacie’s Birthday!
Well my little niece, Jacie just turned six! Seems like just yesterday that she was a little baby!!

Jacie had a G-Force cake since she didn’t want Princess and they didn’t have Pokemon or Bakugan!

Here is a sample of the goodie bags that I made for each of the kids. I used the cupcake wheel and a Chocolate Chip ink cartridge for the bags and the Crazy for Cupcakes and Taffy Alphabet stamp sets for the names.
I did give her the Sweet Treats birthday card that I posted a couple weeks ago and she wanted to break open the sweet treat cup to get at the sprinkles as soon as she opened the card!
Happy Birthday Jacie!

Shimmer Paint!
Happy Friday! This Friday, I’m posting a card that I made using the Frost White Shimmer Paint from the Holiday Mini Catalog. I also used the Kind Thoughts Brocade Small Decor Stencil. I used a sponge dauber to daub the ink through the stencil. It was very easy and more shimmery in real life than the picture shows. I’m going to be using the Shimmer Paint on some of my holiday cards for sure!

The card stock colors I used are Basic Black, Bermuda Bay, and Whisper White. I also used the Large Oval and Scallop Oval punches, and the Ice Circle Rhinestones!

The Frost White Shimmer Paint #116854 is $5.95 a bottle and the Kind Thoughts Brocade stencil is #116572 is $9.95.

Sweet Treat Cups!
I am so loving the new Holiday Mini Catalog! This week, I used the Sweet Treat Cups found on page 7 of the mini! I created a cute little birthday card ( I think I’ll give it to my niece who turns six this month!). The cute things you can put in these sweet treat cups is so fun! I’ll see what else I can come up with! Enjoy!

Outside of card. Inside of card.
In addition to the Sweet Treat Cups, I used the 1 3/4" Circle punch to make the opening for the cup, the Crazy for Cupcakes stamp set, the Cupcakes wheel, Watercolor Crayons, Blender Pens, Stampin’ Write Markers, Crystal Effects, and a little bit of Dazzling Diamonds Glitter! Card stock colors are Whisper White, Close to Cocoa, Pixie Pink, and Real Red!

Crazy for Cupcakes Stamp Set item # 111618 $23.95 and Cupcakes Wheel item # 113121 $6.50.

New Catalog Stamp Camp!
My group, The Pacific Stampers and I held our New Catalog Stamp Camp on Sunday. It was a big success and everyone had a lot of fun! Here are some pictures from the event!

Every camp, Brenda makes a fabulous welcome sign and this camp was no exception! Brenda used the Build-A-Bear die and put a monkey head on the bear body. Oh and she added a cute little tail too! She used the Varsity Alphabet for the letters and the Trio punch for the flowers! Toooo cute!!

Brenda also creates the favors for us. Here is the money/bear with a little Sweet Treats cup (from the Holiday Mini Catalog) with some yummy M&Ms in his tummy! Too cute to even open up and get at those M&Ms!

Here is the check in table, waiting for all of our guests to arrive!

Here is a close up of the customer bags filled with all kinds of fun stuff!!

Part of the benefit of being a Stamp Camp helper, is that you get to put your retired sets and accessories out for sale. We love selling our retired items as they get a new loving home, and we make room to buy more goodies!

The Big Shot has become a staple at our Stamp Camps! Everyone loves using it. Here is Lorinne helping some gals learn how to use this great crafting tool!
Here are the projects that everyone got to make!

This Baroque Motifs Favor Box was designed and lead by Jenn! Very elegant with a great combination of colors and great for gift giving!

This pretty little vase is personalized with a Decor Elements initial and flower. Everyone loved making this as most had never used the Decor Elements before and were surprised that they could be used on a textured surface! The vase was designed and lead by Naoko!

This darling little Halloween Goodie Bag uses the Build-A-Bear die and the Kooky Spooky die. Just in time for Halloween, the kids will love getting treats in this little bag!! Designed and lead by Shelby!

This elegant Medallion Inspiration Book was designed and lead by Jane! This is a perfect little book to keep notes on things that inspire you! The book itself inspires me to create!
I didn’t get to take as many pictures at this camp as I usually do as I was so busy helping our our guests! We have such a fun time at these events and I have such a great group! If you would like information on joining my group, The Pacific Stampers and joining in the fun, please give me a call or send me an email!
