Sycamore Street

I love the Sycamore Street Designer Series Paper that you can earn for FREE during Sale-a-bration and so I thought I would show the note pads that my friend Cindy brought to our last Team Meeting for her swap.

Don’t you love the sentiment set that she used to stamp on the note pads? Feel Goods (item 129681/129684) is well named since when I see or use these sentiments I just feel – well good.

And here are a couple of cards from my Leadership swaps that also use the Sycamore Street Designer Series Paper. This first one uses the Henry Says stamp set (item 128090/128093) from the Spring Catalog.

And this last card uses the Oh, Hello stamp set (item 130730/130733) and one of my favorite accessories, the Paper Doilies (item 129399).

Feeling Sentimental

Can you believe there are just a few more days until Sale-a-bration ends? You only have until Friday, March 22nd to earn your FREE items. As we wrap up Sale-a-bration  I thought I would show you some projects made with one of my favorite stamp sets that you can earn during Sale-a-bration, the Feeling Sentimental Stamp Set (item 129627/129630).

This first card is one I made during a challenge with my demo friends. It’s a vertical z fold card and I love the way it turned out. Did you notice how I used the Basic Designer Button (item 129325) – I thought it looked a bit like a coin.

Here is a great card that I made during my shoebox swap at Leadership. I love the colors and am really going to miss this year’s Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper, Sycamore Street (item 127540).

And here is a card that I received in a Leadership swap from Barbara. It uses the Honeycomb Embossing Folder (item 129378) in the background. I really like the feeling of texture this card has.

And finally another favorite of mine from the Leadership shoebox swap. If you attended my Sale-a-bration Celebration event you were able to make one of these for yourself. I love the way this card uses the Be of Good Cheer Designer Series Paper (item 126896). It’s not just for Christmas as you can see.

A Perfect Day for Vintage Verses

Have you ever had one of those days? We’ll I’ve just spent the morning putting up 8 heads of cabbage that my son Johnathan grew in his garden. I’ve got to say that I was impressed when he picked them earlier because they were so large and was looking forward to using our favorite recipe when I put it up.  Since they’ve been sitting in my frig taking up so much room I decided I had better do something with them, right? Well fast forward a bit – to make a long story short I should have paid more attention to what I was doing!

After cooking up over half of the cabbage I realized I was using ground mustard instead of ground ginger to season the cabbage with! Thankfully my little oops didn’t turn out so bad, and actually my husband might even enjoy it – since now the cabbage has a bit of a kick to it!  However, I’ll be paying more attention as I make the rest of the batches up the right way.

So all this got me to thinking of a card that I made at Leadership using the Vintage Verses Stamp Set (item 129633/129636) that is currently available as a FREE Sale-a-bration item. I thought the verse was appropriate for today.

So whether you host a party with friends and family (or even host a book party) anyone you want to invite – local or long distance, can now add their order to your party! And that means ALL your friends and family are now able to support your Hostess goal.

The process is simple:
