A Rose is a Rose… is a beautiful set!
Filed Under Mothers Day | 13 Comments
The moment I saw this set on cruise, I have been waiting to get my hands on it!!! At this point, this is going to be my founder’s circle swap (although my hand hurts just thinking about cutting out all those flowers). This a 4pm the night before my monthly Stamp-A-Stack inspiration card.

The background is the new Bella Toile stamped in "Pretty in Pink", the flowers are Pretty in Pink & Regal Rose, the leaves are Certainly Celery and Always Artichoke and the accent flower is in the new Baja Blue… doesn’t that last color really set it all off. I popped up the center flower and added a wide grosgain rose color knot!

I know, I know, the minute that I finished it, I realized that I should have used the new Pink Pirouette (but old habits die hard)!

Time to Start Your Business?
Filed Under Specials | Leave a Comment
I have been an inconsistant blogger this month, but I didn’t want this awesome special to go by without mention… there are several $99 kits to choose from for going in to business for yourself.
Click here for your options and the benefits on being on my team. One of the things that I have begun are Sunday evening ‘tele-training’ on being in the business of Stampin’ Up! All recordings are stored in my downline training site. Do you want to understand how to make some income from a hobby? Are you a ‘lapsed demonstrator’ and want to start again? There are lot’s of possiblities!
As always, support the demonstrator who is supporting you! This is not a solicitation for someone who already is working with a demonstrator.
On another topic: I have added an awesome "Search" bar tool on my left hand sidebar. I get emails all the time about projects that I’ve done in the past and if you can remember the keywords you can probably find it faster than I can respond!
And look forward to the beautiful things that I have been working on… coming soon (a more consistent blogger!).

Flip Book Step-By-Step
Filed Under 3D Project, blog | 30 Comments
I have updated my Project Gallery to include a new tutorial!
Yet another Flip Book tutorial, but my [penny-pinching] intent was to come up with a ‘formula’ so that you can get two complete books from one Scrappin’ Memories Kit. Below is a sample of one of my favorites "Tie the Knot".

I was devastated that they discontinued ALL the current Scrappin’ Memories kits, I had hoped that it would be my "Over the Top" swap at Convention (I will be posting the paper pins I made soon)! Remember all of the current Scrappin’ Memories kits are only available until Saturday, so don’t delay!
This flip book is one of the ongoing classes that I offer at the ScrappingGetaways.com event in Philadelphia quarterly. The next all-weekend ScrappingGetaway is on November 14, 15, & 16. You can register for a day or the weekend or just show up for my make & takes and "Class on Demand" (READ: I’m sitting there bored, so sit down and do the class, LOL!), I don’t have a schedule, I’m there all weekend goofing off working very hard to represent Stampin’ Up! in a professional manner 
More photos of another flip book that I’ve made is on my Project Gallery, click on Flip Book (at this writing it is my last project posted).
