Monday... Monday!

Happy Monday! I am so excited to participate in Mojo Monday this week. Last week I was away at Crystal Mountain skiing with my wonderful husband and never found the time when we got back home to do the challenge. So this morning I dropped my kids off at school, picked up a few groceries (big snow storm predicted for us tonight!) then got right home and went straight to work on the challenge. I have also been very busy preparing my March class samples and I will post those later today or early tomorrow if all goes as planned, so check back later! Have a wonderful day, thanks for stopping by!

Another day, another challenge...

Good morning! Today I decided to play along with the Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge (that is a mouthful!) It is a challenge put on by a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators. The challenge this week was to use black, white, silver and sparkle to ring in the new year. I wanted to make a tall card today and I love the now retired "It's a Stretch" stamp set for tall cards. (I was SO sad to see that one retire, I love it!) I embossed the image in silver and then colored it in. Layered it on Melon Mambo, then on Basic Black and finally on some shiny silver paper I had in my stash. The dsp will soon be available for free! It will be one of the items offered during Sale-A-Bration which is kicking off in just a few weeks! Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!

Cheery Birthday Class

These past few days have been a whirlwind! I have been hard at work trying to finish up my February class projects, starting a blog, and spending time with my wonderful husband and kids who are on vacation all week. Here is one of the projects for February. It is a very cheery birthday cake box. It contains 4 coordinating cards with envelopes. This class will be offered Friday, February 11th at 10am. The cost for this class is $20. Be sure to rsvp for this class by February 5th!
