Soft Sky vs Cool Carribean


Happy Friday!
Here's a comparison chart on these 2 colours as I've had alot of customers comment on how Soft Sky looks the same as Cool Carribean. (it does look that way in the preview brochure IMO) BUT here you can obviously see the huge difference! Hope this helps clarify!
Hope you have a wonderful weekend! We're busy with ballet recitals tonight and tomorrow night.

playing with my new fav set!



Hello!

Well last night after the kiddies were in bed my good friend Rosella came over and we stamped! To get our juices going we cased this card that debbiedesigns created. Its stamped on shimmery white c/s and is so beautiful in real life!


After this card we wanted to try the tiling look that is the challenge this week on SCS so we created our 2nd card. Used the Poppin' Pastels technique for a softer look. Love the new designer paper that coordinated with the Baroque Motifs stamp set!


Enjoy,

Have a great day!

Swollen Fraser


Here's a few of the pic's I took yesterday. In the middle of the photo under the bridge there are usually campsites there and a picnic area. You can see the row of tree's that usually goes along the river bank. Pretty amazing to see! (if you click on the photo you can get a much better view)

Three in a Row

Good Morning!

Well here's another quick card I made the other night when I was playing with my new goodies!

The white c/s is on dimensionals to give the raised look. I LOVE this tin set and so glad I have it!

I'll upload some pic's I took after school yesterday of the swollen river near where I live. (well 15min away). Thankfully it looks like for the time being we've avoided a big flood as the weather cooperated but the news says there's still like 80% of the snow that has to come down from the mountains so June will be touch and go until that snow gets down.....all depends on the weather!

Have a great day,
Happy Stampin'

Stampin' with new Rubbah




Hi there!


I'm so happy that my new goodies have arrived! Here's a pic of what I rec'd from the Preview Brochure....

Rhinestone brads, new designer paper, chipboard, the new TIN with punch, ink and stamps, new in colours paper and ink pads (not pictured)....not to mention new rubbah!!!


I was able to sit and stamp last night which was great too! In just 2 hours I was able to create 5 cards - 3 3x3 cards and 2 standard cards......some i'll share on here and one or two I want to keep for my upcoming New Catalog Kick Off party which is July 12th - mark your calenders and let me know if you can come!
The card here is using the new Pick a Petal stamp set! I love the colour combo of Apricot Appeal, Certainly Celery and Almost Amythyst! I used the Sweet Shop ribbon to base my colours on.


Hoping to get some more stamping done tonight!

Father's Day gift


Good Morning!
Here is one of the projects we made at my May Clubs. It is a photo album using the SU clear envelopes! I saw this idea on the cruise and LOVED it! Its such a versatile idea as you could do this idea for Christmas cards, child's friends, teacher gift etc.....
I used the office hardware to hold it together but the sample on the cruise used ribbon which made it more feminine looking. Because this was for a man I chose to use the hardware, plus some Notations designer paper and the soon to be retired Artifacts stamp set to name a few.
Don't forget that if you live in the Fraser Valley you're welcome to come to my New Catalog kick off party on July 12th in the evening! For more information please see my website which also has my classes at www.ehmazingstampers.stampinup.net . Let me know and I'll give you some directions and details. The event is FREE and I'd love to meet you! ckschwen@shaw.ca
Have a super weekend everyone!

punch storage



Hello there!

While blog surfing I came accross this great idea to store punches! sararedman bought some cheap curtain rods, spraypainted them black and attached them to her wall!!!! I love this idea and i'm inspired to run to Walmart to buy some! What do you think?

I love storage ideas as I'm constantly trying to improve my stamp room and make it more organized!

Hope you had a wonderful weekend! We bought some blueberry bushes at the local Flea Market today so will have to get those planted soon....(ran out of time today)

Happy Stampin'
