This first card was given to me by Connie and I really like the way she chose to show off  one of the secondary images.

Pop of Paradise

Love flamingos? If so then Pop of Paradise will be right up your alley.

Pop of Paradise SC AC Swap 2016 (1)

This first card was given to me by Sandy in a recent swap that I organized. I love the colors she chose, they are bold an cheerful – a perfect card to bring a smile to someones face this summer. (I’ve included the supplies below for you.)

And here is another card I received using the fun In Colors Peekaboo Peach and Watermelon Wonder.

#imbringingbirthdaysback with Seaside Shore

Today’s card is one that I created for my July birthdays and my #imbringingbirthdaysback campaign. I think its bright and colorful and I love the way it turned out.

Seaside Shore #imbringingbirthdaysback July 2016

This card uses one of my favorite sets from the NEW 2016 Annual Catalog, Seaside Shore. It is full of wonderful seaside images. You can find this set along with a wonderful suite of products on page 92 & 93.

Check out the Perfect White Accents I used for the bubbles – I simply removed the white backing so they were clear and used my Fine Tip Glue Pen to adhere. Cool, right? and it’s another fun way to use this accessory.

Fun & Flirty Flip Flops

What says summer more than a new pair of flip flops? Today’s card uses our fun bold Designer Series Paper, Festive Birthday to create these fun cactus flip flops.

Seaside Shore Flip Flops (1)

I’ve had several of you ask me how I created these when you saw my shoe box card HERE.

So I thought I’ve put together a video tutorial on how they are made. And I included some tips to make things easier.

Want the pattern? Well I’ve made one up just for you!

So, what kind of flip flops do you like? Plain, bright and colorful, or wild patterns? Why not leave me a comment and let me know.

What’s Happening Here?

On a personal note I thought I’d share with you what is happening with all this wood my son, Johnathan and I  brought home on June 20th. (Click HERE to see that post).

June 20 2016 wood for classroom

I’m excited to say my guys are making great progress on the project… my classroom!

June 2016 Classroom storage (4)

Johnathan is always happy playing with his “toys” in the garage. (He built his garage cabinetry that you see in the background over his winter break.)

June 2016 Classroom storage (1)

Over the weekend they finished the 12 x 12 paper storage unit.

June 2016 Classroom storage (2)

and the base cabinet too! Wow that was fast!!!

June 2016 Classroom storage (3)

I can’t tell you how excited I am to get painting! And you know how I dislike painting. LOL!!!

Right now, I’m trying to decide a new paint color for the classroom walls. After all, with this great cabinetry going in I need a new coat of paint, right?

I’ve got it narrowed down to two choices at this point.

classroom paint swatches

A more bold one and a safe one. I’m trying to decide how crazy I want to be LOL!!! Pool Party or Sahara Sand ???? Hmmm…. what do you think? I’ve changed my mind so many times already, but these are the two I keep coming back to since I love the Island Indigo display item I already have.

What color would you choose?

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Seaside Shore (141622/141625)

Team Retreat Fun!

I love to pamper my team – And one of the fun things we do together are retreats! I hold three of them a year so that we can spend time away from the daily grind together.

We love sharing, stamping together and well, honestly just having some fun. After all who doesn’t like a weekend where they can lounge around in their Pjs and stamp?

BMS Weekend Retreat June 2016 (2)

We bring all our new goodies to share and while we all have different projects – it’s a wonderful time crafting together and inspiring each others creativity!

What kind of things do we do? Well Janette’s project this retreat was to get all her 4th of July cards completed and ready to send out when she returned home.

BMS Weekend Retreat June 2016 show & tell table (1)

And Anna’s was to create a birthday card from her son using the NEW Shooting Star Bundle (142349/142350).

BMS Weekend Retreat June 2016 Show & Tell table

On Saturday we have a team Shoe box Swap. It’s a lot of fun. Everyone shares how their card was designed and special tips for assembly before we get started.

Here is Marni sharing how to assemble the penny sandwich for the Sliding Star Framelits (141820) for her card.

BMS Weekend Retreat June 2016 (1)

What fun learning new things together! And it’s a great chance to try new products we don’t have.

BMS Weekend Retreat Shoebox Swap June 2016 (5)

Marni’s card is done in Dapper Denim and uses the Shoot Star Stamp Set (141616) in addition to the Birthday Banners Stamp Set (141506) and Bunch of Banners Framelits Dies (141488). I love the way she used to Gold Glimmer Paper (133719) for the stars to add a bit of bling.

BMS Weekend Retreat Shoebox Swap June 2016 (4)

Anna’s card uses the By the Shore Suite found in the Annual Catalog (page 92 & 93). I really love nautical suite of coordinating products! She used the By the Seashore Designer Series Paper (141640) and Seaside Shore stamp set (141622/141625) in addition to the Seaside Embossing Folder (141481) to create this fun summer themed card for the shoe box.

Melanie who just joined our team in June (and took advantage of the wonderful special to earn 2 addition stamp sets), chose to do a patriotic card using the Perpetual Calendar stamp set (137167) and Star Framelits Dies (133723).

BMS Weekend Retreat Shoebox Swap June 2016 (2)

Janette’s shoe box was a soft and sweet sympathy card done in Sweet Sugarplum. It uses the Best Badges Bundle (142333/142334) and the Thought & Prayers stamp set (128751/127805).

BMS Weekend Retreat Shoebox Swap June 2016 (1)

Can you see the little flowers on the vine? The flowers are part of the Tree Builder punch (138295) and the scallop edge was made using the Best Badge Punch (140633) – how cool is that?

And of course we have a Shoe & Tell table – where we put our creations from the weekend. Here is a fun birthday card using the Festive Birthday Designer Series Paper and Build a Birthday stamp set (138646).

BMS Weekend Retreat June 2016 show & tell table (2)

Oops I almost forgot – What did I do for my shoe box? Well I was in the mood for a fun bold color pallet so I created this little flip flop card using the Festive Birthday Designer Series Paper and the Seaside Shore stamp set. (I’ve included the complete recipe below for you.)
