May 24/2014, Spring Fling–a Stamping Extravaganza!
This was one of those FULL DAY of stamping events.
These cards used the Watercolor Mini Cards in the Occasions Mini Catalogue. Made some quick and easy cards.
And the rest of the day was spent with these cards. New techniques, new products, new tools and a couple of out-of-the-ordinary card formats.
October 27, Stamp Camp of All Occasion Cards
It was a busy day. Used the Envelope Punch Board, my current favourite stamp set Gorgeous Grunge, some dies and made a dozen cards. Also stamped our own designer paper for the Gift Card Box which contained 3 matching cards.
Die cut cards.
More Gorgeous Grunge!
April 27 All Occasion Cards
The first stamp camp of the year! (That is what happens when warmer climes beckon in our snowy cold winter.)
This card took a little extra work but made a cute little pop-up surprise when opened.
That is embossed vellum on the banner card. Because vellum is so light weight, it is best embossed on the platform base with an additional piece of computer paper included in the folder. (Thanks Kim W. for that tip.)
Inspiration came from Marilyn A. for the Blue Elephant card! Thanks, Marilyn.

September 30, Fall Fest
It was an early start – 8:30 a.m – but we needed it! A jam-packed day of stamping, sharing and having lots of fun. Door prizes, 3-D items, cards and a little show & tell display. The day went by too quickly!!
Projects included a Gratitude Book, a Christmas Luminary, a scissor fob and a Christmas Ornament.
And of course we made some cards…

August 26 Stamp Camp
A couple of Christmas cards and some All Occasion cards were the projects for today. One of the cards was a ‘shutter’ card. Looks plain when closed but opens like a camera shutter to reveal a surprise! Another card was a tiny ‘easel’ card – the butterfly – and since it was so tiny, there is no envelope small enough for it. We solved that by making one! Love the layered matted snowflakes? It is so easy, but so hard to describe.
The Christmas Quilt was designed by Catherine – THANK YOU!! And thanks to Christine for the angle of the lacy card. Just goes to show you that there really are no mistakes in card-making – just ideas for your next card!

July 29 Stamp Camp – All Occasion Cards
New tools, new stamps, new ink, new paper, new ribbon and new designs made for a fun time. Eight cards were easily made in this all day session with plenty of time for chit chat and fun.
June 24, 2012 StampCamp
It was a very windy day – we could hear the wind whistling outside – but all was relatively quiet inside. Everyone stamped 8 cards and some stamped more with Angie leading the pack with a total of 30! (And, done before almost everyone else.)
Here are the cards…

May 27 Spring Fling
It was a busy day, but we made it through all the projects and cards and even had time for lunch and some visiting! Here is how we started.
From this…
To this…
With a few steps in between!
I was lucky to be able to attend an Arizona Spring Fling with Diana Gibbs and Rhonda Morgan so credit goes to them for this project. The Starbucks card wasn’t included – it was a Timmy’s card instead!
In January I went to the Stampin’ Up! Leadership training in San Antonio and while there saw these 2 projects.
(Diana and Rhonda put their spin on the ‘plant poke’ and I just kept it spinning!)
Then we created a box and four cards to go in. A perfect gift. Here’s the box and a smidge of each card.
AND that was JUST the morning projects!!!
The afternoon was simple cardmaking that wasn’t really simple. It included a small tutorial on creating your own color coordinated baker’s twine, a little bit of origami and some special folds.
Watch for Fall Fest, be part of the fun and save this date – September 30, 2012.

April 29 StampCamp
It was a whirlwind of cardmaking with 2 stampers making over 40 cards!! Time for lunch and still finishing before 3:00.
We used some sets that are retiring – Trendy Trees, Medallion, Live Laugh Love and Season of Friendship.
We also used some accessories that are leaving us - In Colors, Designer Series Paper, Finial Press embossing folder and Whisper White grosgrain ribbon. But, we used the new Framelits, Blossom Punch and the oval Embossing Folder so a few new things along with the old.
January 29 All Occasion Stamp Camp
We used lots of new product from the Occasions Mini Catalogue to create 8 cards – with one bonus Valentine card. (There are NO stairs in our new location – Westview Community Hall!)
The four morning cards used the new Framelits and sets from the Occasions Mini and the Sale-A-Bration Mini. If you don’t know about Sale-A-Bration be sure and ask before the end of March. It involves FREE product just for ordering items you need!
The afternoon cards used the Edgelits with corresponding embossing folders, the new Blossom punch, Vanilla scented Embossing powder, the really narrow Organdy Ribbon from the Sale-A-Bration mini and more new stamp sets.
The Bonus Card was one I cased from a sample at the Stampin’ Up! Leadership conference held two weeks ago in San Antonio. It was a fun time meeting with other demonstrators and learning about the new things that Satmpin’ Up! has in store for us! If you would like to attend events like these, now is a great time to sign on with Stampin’ Up! The starter kit is at a nice low price and you could have your pick of FREE Designer Series Paper or Digitals downloads for the rest of the year!! Contact me for more details.
