Stampin'Up! BEYOND THE GARDEN Designer Series Paper

You probably think it's a little early to be thinking about Christmas but guess what? Christmas will be here before you know it. With that in mind, I am having a Post It Note Class tomorrow night to show my ladies three real simple gift ideas for those people on their Christmas list. This first project is one that's excellent to keep in your purse or in your car. I used Beyond The Garden Designer Series Paper on this particular one. Here's a look at the outside.

And the inside, has a pocket for receipts (or whatever) on the left side and two different size Post It Notes on the right side. I made a slot to insert the pen by using a piece of acrylic.
The August Promotion from Stampin'Up! is if you buy three packs of $10.95 designer series paper, you'll receive a fourth pack FREE. For more details, please go to my SU Website, shirleybmckay.stampinup.net.
You can order 24/7 on my website OR contact me by email and I will be glad to place your order.

Today is my monthly Prayer Quilt Ministry meeting at the church that I'm attending. This is a sample of one of the quilts in progress from last month. Once the quilts are finished, they are prayed over by the group before being given to those who need them.

Thank you so much for joining me today. Please stop by on Friday as I will have another Post It Note idea. Enjoy your day!

Stampin'Up! VINTAGE VOGUE Stamp Set

Today's post is the last item that my ladies will be making at my Projects Class later this month. I'm using it as a seed packet but the designer, Carla Brasher, also used it for sachets. To make the project, I used Stampin'Up! Open End Small Envelope and the Vintage Vogue stamp set. Notice the bottom of the envelope has been crimped enabling the top of the envelope to slide over the top easily.

Showing you how the top of the envelope just slides off.
Have a great day and thanks so much for stopping by!

Good morning fellow stampers! Here is another treat that my ladies will be making at my Projects Class later this month. Becky Roberts, also a SU demo, had this in her 12 Days of Christmas tutorial so after admiring it for so long I finally decided to purchase it. This particular one I used the Paisley Prints designer series paper along with Whisper White, Chocolate Chip and Baja Breeze cardstock.

As promised from my last post, here is the inside of the chapstick holder. Don't you love the ladybug chapstick from Avon? It's perfect for the design I used on the front.

Thank you for stopping by. Have a great day and be good to yourself and stamp daily!

Stampin'Up! JUST BELIEVE Stamp Set

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL YOU MOMS OUT THERE. Thanks for stopping by on "your special day".
Todays post is one of the items that I'm doing at my "Project Class" later this month ~ a chapstick holder. With the weather being so dry here in TX, chapstick is something you just can't be without.

I used the JUST BELIEVE set to stamp the background, then made the lady bug using the scallop punch. I'm using the Avon decorative chapstick that has a ladybug on it. I will show you the inside of the card tomorrow. Sorry I failed to do that today.
Enjoy your day today Moms! Relax and kick back because you know you deserve it. Look forward to seeing you again tomorrow.
