I am working on a card for an shoe box swap I'm going to at the end of September. It's a new technique for me called "out of the box" and I can't wait to finish up the card. I'll upload that when it's all done. I will have to make 24 kits for this card so that will keep me busy for a bit!

If you're stopping by my blog, leave me a comment and let me know what you think!
Have a happy day!

Here are a couple of fun pictures from the Stampin Up convention earlier this month. We were able to choose from a set of background scenes. This one is the main stage.

This one is of Julie and me over the Salt Lake City Skyline. We had fun with these pictures. Julie got a picture taken of her playing with a huge kitty cat. 

Happy Sunday!

Hi friends,
I wanted to share a card that my planescrapper friends gave me in June after we had a scrappin/stampin weekend getaway retreat at my home.

We had such a good time that weekend. I am looking forward to our next retreat. 

Hope you all had a fun weekend! We almost sold the camper, but it just wasn't meant to be today. Hopefully we'll get more takers this coming week.

Till next time,

Karen

Welcome to my blog!

Hi Friends! Welcome to my brand spankin new blog! I want to share my stampin card creations, provide inspiration, and share what I love about paper crafting. I hope you will enjoy this site and come by often to check out new ideas. 

Last week I attended the Stampin Up convention in Salt Lake City, Utah. This is the 25th anniversary for the company. I had a super great time. Stampin Up knows how to put on a fantastic party. It was great to go down memory lane and watch the progression of the company from its beginning to where it is now. 

Here are some cards I made for swapping at convention:

These cards feature the Mosaic Madness stamp set.

This was a CASE of a card I saw online. I changed the layout and colors.

















These cards features the Lacy & Lovely stamp set.

These two cards I CASED and changed the colors and added some embellishments such as the new candy dots and basic pearls.

Here is what I made for my "roomie" gift for the 2012 convention.

This card is what I made for my thank you's for the gifts I received from my students last Christmas. 

And this last one is a New Year's card I made.

That's it for today. I look forward to sharing more samples from my stamp camps past and future. Feel free to leave a comment! Thanks for stopping by!
