Week 10 of the 12 Weeks of Christmas!

Good morning! I'm a little late with this today; I lost a day somewhere this week, and was thinking yesterday that I still had another day to work with. Imagine my chagrin when I woke up to Friday morning! :D

ANYWAY. Here is this week's idea; I hope you enjoy it! Only TWO WEEKS until Christmas, ladies and gentlemen!!!!!! EEK!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd better get busy! :D

Have a WONDERFUL day! And please, take the time to STAMP something!!!!!!!!!

Surprise! I'm here EARLY today! :D

I got up earlier than usual, so here I am. :D Today you'll get the third card from the Wonderful Window Sheets class - a magic card, then the next two days will be the cards from last night's Advanced Techniques class. We had a great time!!

Don't forget the THIRD ANNUAL BIRTHDAY CARD CONTEST - click HERE to read the original post - we don't have many entries yet, and you've only got ten more days to get your card to me!






This is the "beginning" of how this card looks....
























And this is how it looks when you make the "magic" happen (I pulled OUT the middle, so I could get a picture of it for you)! Because I ONLY like to do quick and easy cards, I ONLY do these cards when I teach them. :D Get the picture? But you can go HERE to learn how to do them for yourself!

Card stocks: Glossy White, Whisper White, Basic Black

Inks: Jet Black Stazon, Green Galore, Only Orange, Brilliant Blue, Glorious Green, Bashful Blue

Stamp sets: Branch Out, Really Retro

Accessories: Window Sheets (Occasions Mini), Stamp-a-ma-jig, round tab punchm paper trimmer

I'd LOVE to see your card if you try this! :)

OK, I'm off. Not that I have anything PRESSING, but I don't have anything else to say. :D

Have a wonderful day!!!!!!!!!!!! Be SURE to take the time to STAMP something!!!!

Happy Tuesday afternoon!

Shew. What a day!!!! I got to see THE TALE OF DESPEREAUX *and* NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM...SMITHSONIAN today. What fun movies, and what great company I had!!!

ANYWAY. Here's another card from Saturday; I LOVE this card. It may be because of the Real Red striped grosgrain - I just am in love with it. :D I hope you like the card, too - it's called a floating card, because the images look like they're floating. :D

Card stocks: Real Red, Whisper White

Inks: White Stazon, Jet Black Stazon

Stamp set: Crazy for Cupcakes

Accessories: Real Red striped grograin, assorted Stampin' Write Markers, ticket corner punch, window sheets (Occasions Mini)

Super simple, but soooooooo cute! I just love it! :D

OK, I'm off - not too much time until I need to be ready to teach. :) Don't miss me tomorrow - not only do I have another window sheet card to show off this week, but also four cards from tonight's advanced techniques class!

I'm stampin' - I hope you're taking the time to STAMP SOMETHING!!!!

Wonderful Window Sheets!

Good Monday afternoon - it's hard to get into the swing of things again!!! Class on Saturday was fun; we looked at some great projects you can do using the clear window sheets, available in the Occasions Mini Catalog ONLY through the end of the month.

Here is one of the projects we did. This technique is an old one, called CAUGHT IN CRYSTAL; Stampin' Up! used to sell window sheets on a regular basis, and this is one of my favorite MESSY things to do with them. :)

Card stocks: Not Quite Navy, Whisper White

Inks: Jet Black Stazon, White Craft

Stamp set: Fifth Avenue Floral

Accessories: Summer Sun and More Mustard re-inkers, Dazzling Diamonds glitter (hard to see, but it's in there!), tissue paper, white embossing powder, embossing buddy, heat tool, dimensionals

I'm feeling generous today, so here's a deal! If you place an online purchase of window sheets between now and the end of the month, I'll send you an email with a pdf file of step-by-step instructions on how to do this! Your order can be for anything besides the window sheets, too, but must include them to get the tutorial! :) Just CLICK HERE, then click on the SHOP NOW button at the top. You want to be sure to order either thickness window sheets (order numbers 114323 or 114324).

OK, I'm outta here! Tomorrow night is Advanced Techniques, and you know that always means samples! :) I've got them all designed and cut, but need to clean up the studio pretty desperately. :D

Have a wonderful day! And take the time to STAMP something, would ya?!?!
