Christmas card from my Christmas class today.

Here is one of the cards for todays Christmas Card Class. This card uses the new bow maker. I love that die. Its easy to use and creates a beautiful bow for any card or for your packaging needs. 

I would also like to share that Samson, Our Parrot, Got to come out and play yesterday. The kids are gone for the weekend and we let him out to play. He always gets to get a shower when he comes out to play. Slim takes him in the shower and he flaps his wings while slim sprays him down. 

We always know when he is ready to shower because he will ask for a shower. That means he's ready to go back in his cage. This bird is like one of the family in this house. 

Thanks for stopping by today and for letting me share Samson with you.

Good morning everyone. 

Did you all see my post about the paper pumpkin special. The next order goes out on the 10th and for 2 months you can get it for only $10 each just to try it. If you dont like it, you can cancel but for $10 its worth a try. Email me if you are interested. I am giving away the one I got at convention to my first sign up and I still have not gotten anyone. Come on. Join us. Here is a photo I found of someone else's projects using the paper pumpkin kit. Its different every month.

Challenge cards and convention photo

Here are two more for the Mastering Monday challenge. I love how they both changed it up. 

Mindy Brown did this one and I love
that she turned the card so
it was going in a different direction.

Marcie Wright did this one.
I also loved how she did 3 pieces
of Banner instead of one big one

Great job ladies. Thanks for sharing your ideas for our challenge. Please leave a comment for our participants.
Thanks for playing along.







Does anyone want to see what its like to attend convention.
Here is a photo of all of us walking in the hall to get from point A to point B. Sometimes it moves slow and others it moves rather quickly. There were apparently 5800 demonstrators there this time. I think that is the most there has been since I've been going. The sign up above is our convention theme for this year. BE THE DIFFERENCE

samples and then Mastering Monday challenge

Here are some more samples I found on peoples blogs using the sunburst technique. This is one of my favorite techniques now. I love it.

 I found these on Dawn Olchefske's blog. I was surfing the net and saw these, they are darling don't you think.
Now this next card was created by Valerie using the card I gave her in the In color club order. They get a card every month that I use the in color with and they are able to re create it in one of their colors or all. She did it in Strawberry Slush. I had originally done it in Baked Brown Sugar.

This is Valerie's version

Thanks Valerie for sharing

I didn't add a greeting to theirs thinking they could add what they wanted. 

So, I am going to make this the Mastering Monday Challenge. 

Please have your take emailed to me by Friday. Thanks for playing along. 

Make a card using this layout and any of the Stampin' Up! colors. Not just the in colors. 

Have fun and have a wonderful week.

Kylie kissing our bird

Kylie has seen me kissing Samson so I told her she could try it if she wanted. So, here is the cutest ever photo of that. She loves Samson. I told her she couldnt do it unless I was here because I dont want him to bite her. She needs to be very careful. It was ever so cute.

Oh and I forgot to mention, Samson loves her too. He always says her name. Its so cute. Must be she gets called to alot for him to pick that up. LOL. Love that Girl. 

Thanks for stopping by, I know not a Stamping post but I couldnt figure out how to post the photo of the Christmas card class. As soon as I make them myself I will post it here.
