Modern Medley Dry Erase Calendar

Posted on September 16, 2013 by Stamp with Jini

Last Friday I told you I would show you another project that I made for Kaitlin’s dorm room message center – well here is the Modern Medley Dry Erase Calendar along with the magnetic board to complete her college message center.

I really like the way this turned out. I used My Digital Studio to create the calendar you see. I just love the way that you are able to use a built in template and easily customize it the way you want. I even used the matching digital version of our Rich Razzleberry Designer Series Paper for the blocks on the calendar. I just changed the opacity so it gave her a hint of the color, and added special things to the days that she already knew about to save her time.

Kaitlin can easily change out the calendar each month by opening the flap on the back of the frame and inserting the new month – quick and easy for her versus the original dry erase board she wanted at the local big box store that she would have to write everything in on herself. With her busy schedule she needs easy and since it coordinated with her other items – she loved it!

Here is a view of her dorm room wall with her message center completed above her desk. The paint on the wall was giving (our approved for use) command hooks fits and nothing would stick, so we got creative with some matching Rich Razzleberry ¼” Stiched Grosgrain Ribbon (item 126876) and thumb tacks to hang them with.

Later this week, I’ll show you the final project that I did for her room along with a video too – so watch for that. Mean while you can click HERE, HERE and HERE to see the other projects I made for her dorm room.

Supplies:

Paper: Modern Medley Designer Series Paper (126926), Regals Designer Series Paper Stack (130139), Island Indigo Card Stock (122923), Basic Black Card Stock (121045), and Rich Razzleberry Card Stock (115316)

Accessories: My Digital Studio (130647/130646), Basic Black 1/8″ Taffeta Ribbon (119261) and Typeset Alphabet Bigz Die (127553), 11 x 14 frame from my local big box store

On a personal note – I want to thank everyone who sent their prayers, thoughts, and get well wishes to my husband who had an ATV accident on the way to the barn Friday night. It was something he does all the time, but for some reason this time the quick chore didn’t end well. Larry ended up being thrown from the ATV, bending like a pretzel, and hitting his head. Thankfully after a quite a few tests and a full check up in the ER he was sent home with a mild concussion. He is a bit bruised and sore but otherwise doing well so far. We feel blessed since he was extremely lucky and it wasn’t worse.

Here is a picture of the fort he tangled with – I think he is planning to walk to the barn for a while.

Posted on April 9, 2013 by Stamp with Jini

It won’t be long and this year’s Retirement List will be out – There is always a lot of speculation as to which stamp sets will be on the retirement list and this year I thought it would be fun to see who can guess what’s on this year’s list.

Make a list of the top 10 stamp sets that you think are retiring. Then add 1 more in case I need a tie breaker.
Send me an email – subject line Retirement Party Contest (to [email protected])
Include your name, address, and phone number (I’ll need these if you’re the winner so I can get your prize to you.) along with your list
Email me you list by 9 p.m. Friday, April 19^th

Luau Catalog Launch – Door Prize Winner!

Posted on July 8, 2012 by Stamp with Jini

I hope everyone had a wonderful 4^th of July. We enjoyed ours here with the traditional food, party and fireworks. I know I haven’t posted in a while but I’ve had a lot of stuff going on with family – but I’m back now.

I wanted to share with you today some pictures of the Luau Catalog Launch event. We had a lot of fun trying out some of the new products found in the NEW 2012-2013 Catalog during the event while doing the two FREE make n’ takes and getting to see some of the new products and samples in person.

Everyone who attended received a little gift from me – a Catalog Survival kit. I made the kits using our NEW In Color, Summer Starfruit and the Comfort Café Designer Series Paper – I just love the designs in this package of DSP!

For those of you who weren’t able to make it, over the next few days, I’ll be sharing those make n’ take cards with you.

If you haven’t gotten the NEW 2012-2013 Catalog yet and want one why not drop me an email or give me a call and I’ll be happy to tell you how you can get your own NEW 2012-2013 Catalog along with your own Catalog Survival Kit as my gift to you.

Here is a photo of the table of “goodies”. I always have so much fun making special goodies for my fellow stampers. My recipe for the Maui Artichoke and Crab dip was a huge hit – So much so, everyone who tried it wanted the recipe and suggested that I share it with you here on my blog.

The recipe is quick and easy to make and was wonderful warm or cold, although I have to say family liked it better warm. It does make a huge batch and I knew I wouldn’t use it all in one day so I actually cut out the center of the bread to fit a serving dish in which I could just set the dip after I warmed it. This dip kept well in the frig too; it didn’t last long enough for me to try and freeze some.

King’s Hawaiian Maui Artichoke and Crab Dip

2 16 oz. loaves King’s Hawaiian Bread

3 8 oz. pkg. Cream Cheese, softened

1 c. Mayonnaise

1/3 c. Dijon Mustard

¾ tsp. Cayenne Pepper

1 tsp. Garlic Powder

2 14 oz. cans Artichoke Hearts, drained & chopped

12 oz. cooked Crab Meat, fresh or frozen, (imitation may be used)

8 oz. Cheddar Cheese, shredded

Carefully hollow out one of the loaves to within 1 inch of sides and bottom. Cube the remaining loaf and bread that was removed into 1-inch chunks. Mix cream cheese, mayonnaise, mustard, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder, until smooth. Fold in artichoke hearts and crab. Gently warm seafood mixture in microwave or stovetop, remove from heat. Reserving a ½ cup cheese for garnishing, mix remaining cheese into mixture. Pour warm dip into hollowed bread loaf. Garnish with remaining cheese. Arrange bread cubes around loaf when ready to serve. Serve warm or cold.

Makes 1 quart

Preparation time; 20 minutes

I know you have waiting patiently to learn who won the Grand Drawing Prize of over $75 in product on display at the Luau Catalog Launch event. So I won’t keep you in suspense any longer. Drum Roll please…………Congratulations to Jill whose name was drawn after the event and won this little pail full of wonderful Stampin’ Up! products.
