[caption id="attachment_351" align="alignnone" width="468" caption="Ghostly greetings"]Ghostly greetings[/caption]

Found the cutest halloween pencils at the dollar section at Target.  They match perfectly with SU!'s Ghostly Greetings DSP.  You can't tell from this pic but I used the Eat, Drink and Be Scary stamp set to make the tag to add to the pillow boxes.  Speaking of pillow boxes created those myself using the Sizzix Big Shot!  My kids have helped me crank the Big Shot (they had so much fun) and presto chango we are just about done with the treats for their classmates and teachers.  The spooky jar (we call is spookalicious) was made using the Decor Elements (take a looksie HERE). Gotta love it!  

Oh and if you need supplies don't forget I'm open 24/7 right www.OlgaStamps.StampinUp.net.  Any orders placed online or through me will qualify you for Stamping It Fun's Frequent Buyer Plan.  Wanna know more...comment below!

Fancy Shmancy...



Saw this idea at convention this year.  It one of our white gift bags.  I simply cut the upper half of the sides and scalloped the edges to create the look of sleeves.  Decorated the front and voila you got a fancy smancy gift bag.  I also make a cute card that my kids drew and signed off on.  

Have any questions...don't hesitate to hollar!

Scrapbooking anybody?

[caption id="attachment_251" align="alignnone" width="300" caption="Flight of the Butterfly Set"]You are so Special![/caption]

I get so carried away at times with card making I forget to get back to my basics with scrapbooking.  I truly love to do it.  There was a time where I would almost get sick thinking about starting my scrapbook let alone finishing one.  Yes the true VIRGO in me just couldn't handle the fact the colors didn't match exactly or a stamp was not coordinated with the patter paper. Yadda yadda.

The the answer to my dreams and my crazy desire to have everything perfectly perfect is Stampin' UP! They saved me!!!  Yep..their ink matches their cardstock, designer series paper, ribbons...etc.  They have 48 colors PLUS 6 in-colors that are around just for this year (June 09).   Besides the previous fact now they take it even further.   Their NEW partnership with Sizzix now even those dies coordinate with alot of their products.  I could go on forever!!! 

MY guess work is DONE!  I know what matches with what and whom and I can whip up a page in no time!  Oh and if you use their Simply Scrappin Kits.  Well then you just saved yourself a whole bunch of time and you can do so much with them.

Have any questions on what the heck I'm talking about...write a comment below and I'll get back to you.

Another Baby???



Couldn't resist this card I love it!  Got the 5 petal punch to SHEEP idea Dawn Griffith's blog...amazing ideas there. IF you haven't figured out already take the 5-Petal Punch and cut off the lower part of the flower just two petals (leaving 3 petals behind). The 3 petals are the head/ears of the sheep and the 2 petals are the feet.  I used the circle scallop for the sheep's body and the handy dandy crop-a-dile to make the embossed circles on the bottom of the card. A bit of paper piercing, Bella Rose Designer Paper, white gel pen eyes and some pink grosgrain ribbon (which I pulled apart & got that idea from Gretchen Barron's blog) and we have a nice baby card!  It could be a baby thank you or even a baby shower invite.  I will be showcasing this card in one of my upcoming classes. Interested?  Email or comment below. However if you are long distance and would like to make this yourself...

 I am packaging materials for you to make 10 of these cards. It will include all the card stock and the ribbon.  All you have to do is punch, stamp, stick and your done!  Need more supplies that's easy too, just send me an email. 

Thanks for browsing...make it a Great Stamping Day!

Email me HERE and let me know if you'd like to purchase a card set. Have any questions or need a particular item...just hollar.

Tangerine Tango...love it!

  Here is a little something I made form my convention swaps.  I used the new Tangerine Tango cardstock with Apricot Appeal.  The bag is made simply by using 2 square and circle punches, layering them and adding a brad to hold it together.  Didn't have any Tangerine Tango ribbon so I dyed the white grosgrain ribbon.  Added a distressed look by sponging some more Tangerine Tango to the ends of the whisper white.  I hope you like this.  By the way this is using a new set coming out in our new Fall/Winter Idea Book.  

Make it a great stamping day!

I'm on my way....

Cloudy DayWE just got back from Cape May, NJ. We absolutely love it there...so much so we keep going back!  The kids had fun and of course it coulda been just a bit longer.  We missed one beach day because of the weather.  It was a bit scary actually.  But I had to come back only to leave again.  

The countdown is over and I'm off... probably flying to Salt Lake City, Utah as we speak.  I'm excited to be lucky enough to be going to Stampin' Up!'s convention.   I've packed my bags.  Done with my swaps.  Given my DH the kids' schedule.  And yet when it rains it pours...my little one has a fever.  Rushed her to the pediatrician yesterday ...just a cold.  Gosh it's so hard to leave them and now she's sick. :(  She will be in very good hands though.  

I hope you are all ready for an exciting stamping season.  I will come back with tons of ideas and samples. Don't forget to chime in the previous post.  Add your comment and let me know what your favorite new In-Color and why.  You'll be in the running for a Surprise Freebie! 

I can't believe it but I'm going to SU!'s Convention :) wish me luck!

Bye for now.

Make it a great Stamping Day!

Here is a card I made using mostly punches.  I was thinking of doing this for my sons birthday as a "craft" for his party.  Super easy he actually made his own right after this one.  I used Stampin' Up! products of course.  Yo-Yo yellow, Chocolate Chip, Real Red, Whisper White, and Tempting turquoise.  I used the 1/4", 1/2" and 1 1/4" circle punches for his eyes. Hope you likey!

Camp is OVER :(



Hi ya'll hope your summer is going well.  It is HOT, HOT, HOT!!!  My kids went to day-camp for the first time this year and they loved it!  Today is their last day. {sniff}  I'm kinda looking forward to next month so we can do things without a schedule.  You know of course by end of August, however, I'll be counting the days for school to start.

Here is a pic of what kept me busy last night.  I purchased some notepads from the dollar store and decorated them using Night of Navy, Bashful Blue, and Whisper white cardstock.  In addition, I had some leftover rub-ons from sale-a-bration gotta love those.  I used round punches, my round scallop punch and the new scalloped punch.  Add in a few rubber stamps ie. Lovely letters, Ginormous Flowers, and All Holidays. Plus one gift card and TA-DA a nice gift for their counselors.  I had fun making them.  Will post more pics of others later.

Make it a great Stamping Day!

Spring-Summer Catalog 2008 Retirement List

Saying Goodbye, eScape too.

Hello Stampers,

 There is a slight change in plans.  Unfortunately, I hurt my back (been dealing w/pain for wks) but now getting really annoying...seeing a chiropractor and possibly getting an MRI.  Having all that said I still need to stamp of course.  SO I'm pushing the escape SAS (stamp-a-stack) to the last wk in June.  It will be on Thursday June 26 at 6pm to 10pm.  (if you can't make that date I will add others just let me know)  We will be using the Summer Day's Simply Scrappin' kit.  We will be making 10 cards plus a box to put them in with envelopes.  (Really cute!!)

YOU now have two options:

If you want to make 10 cards, with box only then the cost is: $25

If you want to double your project that is 20 cards with envelopes and 2 boxes then the cost of the class is $35 (only $10 more)

Supplies to bring: scissors, mono adhesive (I'll have some on hand if u need to purchase refills they cost $2.25) 

This is the type of class that has minimal stamping and you can complete the second set at home in case time becomes a problem.  I will provide you with step by step color instructions for FREE.  There will also be a door prize...and you never know when I get happy and give more things away.

 I almost forgot we will also be celebrating and saying goodbye to our retiring products...boohoo so sad to see them go so we gotta stock up.  The in-colors will be gone forever!  Having that said I'm changing up the coupon for June...Here it goes..... ready?

There will be FREE SHIPPING on ALL orders (more than $25) placed on June 26, 27, & 28th.  On top of that if you buy one retiring set you get the 2nd one at 5% off then the 3rd one for 10% off, the 4th one at 15% off and any there after at 20% off. Okay so I think the pain meds are getting to my head so before I actually buy the stamps for you I'll stop here.

 Now the only thing is I need an RSVP by Saturday 6/14 the latest.  I know it's last minute but I need to order the supplies and need to leave ample time to receive them.  I only have room for 8 so chime in either way.

 If you can't make this class that's okay too I can ship the materials to you or you can pick them up with the step by step color instructions and complete this on your own too.

Ive been trying to load up and picture (sneak peak) but can't I will try again later stay tuned!
