Here is a card I really had fun with.  My daughter had said that the stamp set "Tea Together" reminded her of Beauty and The Beast so I had to make a card for her with Mrs. Potts and Chip.  Here is my end result.  Definitely not perfect but fun.

First off and foremost, prayers for all the people who were affected by the tornado that ran through Alabama yesterday. 
Secondly, I have a high respect for everyone who lives up north and endures the freezing below 0 temperatures.  I live in Texas and this morning it was 18 degrees and it felt like 5 degrees with the wind.  I'm not used to this cold and I don't think I could ever get used to it.  I feel very blessed this morning that I don't have to work out in that cold.  I take care of my 3 year old grandson and you can bet that we are going to stay inside and warm today.

My live video last night was using the Tea Together Stamp Set and Framelits along with the Country Floral Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  The colors I used were Poppy Parade and Granny Apple Green.

 

Here is the card I made.

 

 

 I inked up the smoother side of the embossing folder, placed my white card stock inside it then ran it through the Big Shot.  That put the ink on the background and left the pop up flowers white.

I had a little trouble with my live video at the beginning (I am still new to this), my video was coming up sideways.  It had also done that the week before.  I had to stop the video, delete it and start again.  That is why I am asking at the beginning if everything is good.

Listed under the video are all the items used.  They are linked to my Stampin' Up! pages for easy ordering.  Please note some of the items are only available until March 31, 2019.

I was on a Thank You card mission this weekend.  My sister came and spent the weekend crafting with me and while she worked on a scrapbook I worked on Thank You cards.  I finished the 35 cards I needed and still had time to play around with a few new items I had just received in my order.  It always feels like Christmas to me when I get an order in even though I know what is in the box.  I then have to get on Pinterest and see what has been made with the new item I received and think of how I can create my own version.  Some of you ladies out there are just so creative.  I am really good at CASEing your ideas.  Here is a video of how I did one of the Thank You cards I found on pinterest.

Fable Friends

This past weekend I went to a Occasions Sale-A-Bration Class that Jennifer Cotton (my upline) had and I was one of four that gave a demonstration on something new in the Occasions Catalog.  I pick Fable Friend Stamp Set mostly because I just love the little bunny on it.  I had to have at least 9 samples of what I had made using the stamp set.  The video that a friend took of my demonstration was just a little to long to be able to post here but below are the samples that I made using the stamp set.

I used up some of my scrap Wood Textures DSP for this card.  Save all those scraps.  Even the 1/2" strips can be used for greetings, they are perfect for the Classic Label Punch.

I just love how this little framed set came out.  I had to go through my other stamp sets to find the flowers and the bees.  I was initially looking for a butterfly but didn't have one small enough.  The baskets are so fast and easy.  I used the        Basket Weave Embossing Folder for the basket and the Cable Knit Embossing Folder for the handle.  I have a Facebook Live Video on how to make the baskets.  Just go to my Facebook page DELIGHTFUL FUN.

The instructions for this cute little box are in the pictures above it.  It is just a little bigger than a crayon box.

I used the Tufted Embossing Folder for this card the I applied the Frost White Glimmer Paint (that carried over from the 2018 Holiday Catalog) to the embossed piece.  You can't tell from the picture but it sure did put a nice shine to the paper.  Of course I then had to use Wink Of Stella on the sweater.  Blushing Bride was that color of paper I used.

I used our Gingham DSP on a lot of these cards.  That paper is as sweet as this stamp set is!!!

So Hoppy Together Scrapbook Pages

I hope everyone had a happy and blessed weekend and for some of you it is a 3 day weekend.

I have to pass on the conversation I had with my 3 1/2 year old grandson this past week.  I was trying to work on my computer but it was not cooperating.  I don't know if it was the computer or the internet but it reminded me of the dial up days, slow, slow, slow.  I was getting frustrated and told my grandson that my computer was really really slow and that it must be getting old and his reply was "like you Grammie?"  That was something I didn't have to be reminded of and I guess it is my own fault for telling him the same thing when he wants me to race him outside or get down on the ground and play with him.  GRAMMIE IS GETTING OLD!!!  But you know what, that's okay, I consider myself very blessed with my family and friends and I wouldn't have it any other way.  But be careful what you say cause it may come back to haunt you!!!

Okay, on to business!  Below is a video I did about my So Hoppy Together Scrapbook Pages.  In the video I said that my stamped strips were 2x12.  They are actually 3x12 and the designer black paper behind them are 4x12.

The strip at the bottom that I stamped on is the 3x12 with the 4x12 underneath it.

The polka dot paper is 4x6.

The embossed Granny Apple Green paper is 4x5 and I used the cut out portion for the greeting.

On the second page, the center green is 2x6.

I just love our Sweetest Thing collection in our 2019 Occasions Catalog.  The color are so bright and vibrant.  Here is my twist on the Sweet Cups.  I used the Animal Outing Stamp Set along with the Animal Friends Thinlit Dies and the Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper.  You could easily turn this into a Valentine's Sweet Cup by using the Wild about You stamp from this set.

I am a big fan of Pinterest.  I will search and search for ideas to case (copy) then half the time I end up doing my own design.  There are really a lot of talented people out there and I appreciate them sharing there creativity.

What new creation will you be making?

Beautiful You Stamp Set

Good morning everyone!  I have been working on my live videos and try to get more posted on both Facebook and YouTube but I have not worked on my blogger page.  So it is now time to see how this works.  It would be so much easier if I had my older grandchildren right here as I do this because they are so computer smart, or should I say electronic smart.  Of course my 8 year old grandson can do things on the computer that I only wish I could do.  I have 12 grandkids and besides the one, two, and three year old babies I am sure they all know more than me on the computers, iPads and iPhones.  Of course when I was their age I was pretty good at getting a clear channel on the TV using rabbit ears or tin foil.  Anyways what I am saying is that times have changed and I would like to catch up just a bit.

So today I am going to try my hand at sharing my video on 3 card designs using the Beautiful You Stamp Set from Stampin’ Up!.  I started with a simple stamping card and added a little more on each card.  If you have never stamped before, this video is for you.  You will notice that something as simple as designer paper and adding layers can transform the look of a card.
