My Stamp-A-Stack tomorrow...

I have a fun class tomorrow evening at 6pm. In it everyone makes 10 cards..2 each of 5 designs. It's been a while since I created a card class like this.

Here is a sneak peek..

If you would like to take this class I might be holding it again...just let me know if you might be interested.

I'll be showing them in full over the next few days.

Meanwhile here is another card that I recieved from my swap with my SU demo friends

This was done by Morag Dickie from Toronto. Isn't it lovely??

Check back soon for more inspiration..

Fall Fun Blog Hop...jump on board!!!

Hello...welcome to my blog..and most of you probably arrived from The Captain's (aka Crooked Stamper aka Leslie) blog. My good blogging buddy Lydia of Understand Blue blog fame did an all out call for her bloggy pals to do a fun Fall Themed Blog Hop. I hope you enjoy the creative beauty that will follow. Below is a list of all the participants if you want to hop along...otherwise you can just click on the link at the bottom of this post that will take you to Michelle Hanway's blog.

Here is my contribution. I am actually hitting three birds with one stone with this card (poor wee birdies) ... my club ladies made it, I also made it for a small swap I am doing with some pals (check back to see the others) and I am using it for this blog hop!

Now if I ever were to actually send it to someone this would be close to the perfect card LOL.

I am IN_LOVE with this colour combo! The thing I love the most? See in this picture how the inks (Pool Party and More Mustard from SU) blended to create a third colour ...

 

SQUEEEEEEEEE!!!

one more pic...

Just look at that giant button...LOVE THEM!!

From here you will want to pay Michelle a visit....here ya go..a short cut to her blog...
