Calling all Stampers - New Hostess Clubs Forming!

Starting a new round for Hostess Clubs.  I have one club filled and one almost filled.  If you are interested in joing our Club, please email me at jnrsjones@cox.net or leave a message here.  

We meet once a month and have a  GREAT time!!  This is a year long commitment.   There is a $25.00 min before s/h and tax each month.  We start clubs in June.

You can have your party at my house.  You bring your snacks, food, drinks, etc when it is your month.  We make 3 projects if it is at my house.  If you want to have it at your house, then we make 2 projects. 

If interested or want more info, please email me!!  You can look back at some post to see some of the projects we have made in the past.

Butterflies

I made this card for a group that I am in.  I love how it came out.  This paper is about to retire and I had not used it, so I decided to pull it out and use it before it retired. 

                                              Happy Stamping!

Cute fabric basket

Here is a fabric basket that my downline, Patty Shipley, made.  She is just A-Mazing!!  All my downline are amazing!!!  I should be their downline.  They are all so talented and do so well!! 

Here is another view.  I have it on my table with candy in it!

Happy Mother's Day to all my blog readers!

I  think I have posted a card very similar, but I like these colors much better. 

Here is a close up of the flower.  I used the Big Shot Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets #120805 $14.95 for 12 sheets.  Really a great deal!!

See all that Dazzling Diamonds on the flower?  It's really easy to do and makes the card just pop.  Here's the deets:  Stamp your image on whisper white (I used the Mixed Bunch set).  Then cut a piece of the Multipurpose Adhesive and place it directly on top of the stamped image.  Then punch it out.  Burnish the edges and then peel off the adhesive and sprinkle dazzling diamonds on top.  The dazzling Diamonds will stick to the image and not fall off.  It's A-Mazing!!!  You should really try it.  I got the idea from someone that demonstrated at Regionals in San Antonio.  Sorry do not know her name, but it is a GREAT idea!!

Sunshine Package

This is the Sunshine package I sent my daughter, Sarah.  She was having a bad day at college and decided to send her this package.  She got it a few days after her bad day, but she still appreciated it!! 

This is just another view of the box.

Field Flowers

This is a card I made for a shoebox swap.  I cased it from someone, but cannot remember her name or blog.  Sorry.  She made this same card in different color

Petite Pocket Die Box

I used the Petite Pocket Die to make this box.  I followed the directions from Julie Davis.

This is the box opened.  We put chocolates inside.  I made it using Peach Parfait cardstock, Tiny Tags Stamp set, jewelry tag, library clips, twine, and chantilly lace.  I also used the Curly Label Punch, Boho Blossom and the smallest heart from Heart to Heart. 

This is the box without the belly band.

This is a close up of the belly band. 

Birdhouse Card for April Clubs

This was one of the cards that we made this month for our clubs.  I found the tutorial on Jackie Topa's website.  She has great directions on how to make this card using Stampin' Ups new diagonal score plate. Available now for only $11.95.  Contact me if you would like to place an order.

I used Marina Mist and Riding Hood Red Cardstock.  I also used the Bird Builder punch. 

                                           Happy Stamping!

Oops! Forgot to Post

Kathy Lay, one of my customers, made these cute little leprechaun table decorations.  She was hired by a friend to decorate for a party.  I think she did a great job!!  Thanks for sharing Kathy!

Smash book

I received a smash book for my birthday several months ago.  I love the idea of it.  Very much like the way I use to scrap book back in the day.  You know where you put eveything in it.  Ticket stubs, dried flowers, some pictures, invitations, etc, etc.

Well I loved the one I got, but it was NOT Stampin' Up!  So, I decided that I could make one that was made from Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper. 

While my downline and I were on our week retreat, I gave them my retired DSP and said create your own Smash Book.  Here are 2 of the ones that were created.  I took a few quick pictures, but you get the idea. 

Of course you have to have the rubber band around it to keep all your stuff smashed into the book so it does not fall out!  I made this with the elastic type headbands and cut DSP and cardstock using the Fun Flower Bigz L Dies from Sizzix that SU sales.  Love, Love, Love how Patty's Smash Book turned out!!

This is some of the inside of the book. It is a masterpiece in progress.  She has already done such a great job on it!!

This one is Toni's!  She is so darn creative!!  Just love it!!  I'm not sure how they got theirs more complete than me, but they did an awesome job.  Maybe it was because I was binding them and they were able to create?  Hmmm or maybe it was just that they are just so much more creative than me!!  Can it be??

This is the inside of Toni's Smash Book.  She has more pockets and tabs on hers.  Her creativity just flows!!  My downline are simply AMAZING!!
