Apple Picking Time!

Good Evening Everyone!

Well, its fall time in Wisconsin, the air has turned crisp and the leaves are starting to fall........and that means time to go apple picking and of course pumpkin picking!

These first few pictures are from our trip Sunday to the Apple Barn in Elkhorn, Wisconsin.  I've never seen the trees so heavy with apples, just beautiful so I had to share........these are Cortland Apples.

These next two pictures are of Sage having fun picking the apples........

This next picture is one of the reasons I call her Silly Sage.........

And of course the Apple Barn had pumpkins as well, but we bypassed them this time for these cute ones from Stampin' Up! convention last year!

Of course these are the awesome Build a Bear dies exclusive to Stampin' Up!  They are used with your Big Shot and are so easy to make.  Sage loves them and makes a ton of them!!  Halloween is quickly approaching so get your order in today!!!

Decor Elements

Posting a quick picture to show you what other great things Stampin' Up! has to offer.  AND my stamp room is a diaster right now, so couldn't take a picture of anything if I wanted to!

So we bought our house back in March and of course our daughter, wanted a pink room.....well Stampin' Up! sells these great Decor Elements.  Basically vinyl for your walls, apply super easy and just add that special something.  So these are the Ginormous Flowers I put on Sage's wall and she loves them!

Advent Calendar Class~Coming Soon!

Good Morning!
Thought I'd do a quick post before I take off for work.  I'm planning an Advent Calendar class for November 5.  This will make a great gift or even an heirloom! Check out my class page for more details.
I got the idea from stampdoc, I did mine a little different but the premise was from her idea.  Hope you can join me!

Happy Sunday!

Well, its rainy and cloudy here today.  Perfect day for crafting!  I had my little "expo" yesterday and it went great!  Thanks to all who came by and double thanks to all who placed an order!

As I showed in a previous post we did the dry embossing of napkins.  So super simple and everyone loved that idea!

We also did 4 tags using the new set called, Tags til Christmas, from the Holiday Mini.  I LOVE this set because every tag in it coordinates with one of our great punches!  So easy, stamp it, punch it out!

The box template I found from http://www.danniesdesigns.com/. Thanks Dannie for sharing!!

I really hesitate to share these next pictures, but I just have to!  I have 2 clubs that comprise of  17 people.  These gals are my biggest support system and they range from newbie stamper to expert and way beyond me stamper, which I never quite understand why they don't become demos because they can put me to shame!

Well as I've stated in a previous post, all my clubs swap cards.  Now even though I'm a Stampin' Up! demo, I certainly don't force them to use only SU! (though I only use SU!, yes I'm a SU! snob!).  I love seeing how they have grown from newbie stamper to what they are today.  Some of things they've used are from SU! but you can see they've used a machine we do not sell and which through my demo agreement I can not name in cyberspace.

This first card is from Natalie Bauman, if you read any of the comments here on my blog, you'll see she goes by the Stampinator......love it!  She is a great hostess and has spoiled my family rotten with all the treats she brought on her club night.  And when you go to her home its like Martha Stewart!

The Goblin Greetings is from the set Grateful Greetings and is a multi-purpose set, including Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas greetings.  That's all I'll talk about since the rest is non SU! but its so stinking cute!

This next one is from another one of my club members, Debbie Hollister, aka Debbie Dog.  Cause Debbie has 3 dogs and well they are her babies!  Debbie was one of my original customers when I first moved back to Wisconsin and I can trace back about 50% of my customer base to her.  And that's been about 7 years.

Thanks Debbie!  OK, she really didn't want me to show you because she said she got the idea off of the internet, but that's what its all about, sharing!  So thanks to the original person who came up with the idea!

As you can see all non SU! but its a multi-dimensional card and now will be part of our Halloween decorations!!

Thanks to ALL my fabulous club members and all their wonderful swaps!!  You gals ROCK!!

Sneek Peek for Holiday Expo!

Ok, wanted to try to keep my promise of every other day posting.......so here's a quick post for tonight.
I have 2 clubs coming up on Wednesday and Thursday and than my Holiday Expo on Saturday.  I'm trying to create some samples from the just released Holiday Mini Catalog. 

This first card, is a sample you'll see on Saturday if you stop by at the Peoples Bank in Elkhorn, Wisconsin between 10am-3pm.  Make sure you bring your camera!!  Again, I'm going to be showcasing the Holiday Mini.  This card is also my swap for the club I'm in.  I require my club members to make swaps, so it encourages them to use what they buy and to just create!  So many times, we just don't make the time to do it, so I'm forcing them...........yea, that's right forcing them! :0)  I'm in one of my clubs so I figured I'd kill 2 birds with one stone.  My swap and a sample....  I have a new club starting if you are interested in the madness let me know!  You could go home with this swap!!

Before you look, I have to give credit where credit is due.  I took inspiration from a card my upline, Tara Bazata, created.  But changed mine up a bit.  I took the inspiration from the pumpkin from Paisley Prints.  I loved how she used 2 colors for the pumpkin.  I used Pumpkin Pie (of course) and Real Red.  Just gives it a whole new look.

This next picture has the samples of the embossed napkins you'll be doing if you come to my little Expo.  Both of these are done with the 2 new embossing folders in the Holiday Mini, Spider Web and Northern Flurry.  Of course they are done with the Big Shot and my mini me, Sage, will be demonstrating how you do them.  So make sure you stop on by if you are in the area!  We'll be making 4 simple projects free of charge and one project that is a little more involved for a small fee.

I hope you are able to zoom in and see the detail better, I'm not the best blog picture taker!  But these are so stinking cute and so easy!  I bet you'd pay a pretty penny if you bought them like this in the store.  I bought a package of 30 plain cocktail napkins for a $1.  And now my Halloween or Christmas party will have that extra WOW factor!!
