Guess what is coming soon!

Stampin' Up! annual holiday catalog! Some of my ladies are receiving them in the mail already. This is an exciting time for me.  The kids are heading to school, temperatures are slightly cooling and the anticipation of santa coming gets me all giddy.

Todays post is a collection of items I have been working on.  I hold monthly card classes and monthly scrapbook classes.  I have printed the 750+ wedding pictures from my beautiful daughters wedding and I have slowly started working on creating the story on pages.  Here is one that honestly is my favorite so far. 

It was very hard to get one that didn't have a glare from the lighting. Im highlighting the Tea Room Memories and More (147035 $10.00) and Designer Paper Delightfully Detailed Laser Cut Paper (146704 $14.00) The pictures are in black and white, I used Coastal Cabana, Very Vanilla and Copper to highlight the pictures.

Onto three cards I created. 

I would consider this an advanced card,  I used many different techniques. Watercolor pencils, gold embossing , brusho,  champagne misting and sponging. I love the way it turned out and especially my coral using the brusho.

Intermediate - the hardest part was fussy cutting the tin and flowers.  I used the wood grain paper and a new embossing folder in the holiday catty.

Easy Peasy-  Watercolor pens and stamping, fun and easy! Again this is a sneak peek of products from the new holiday catalog that will go live 5th of September.

Every monthly class we do a 3D project August class we made these little matchboxes and put Tic Tacs in it. 

The girls loved it!

This is going to be my hostess gift if you book a private class with your friends
during the holidays.
This is so stinkin' cute.

My class schedule is on my website you can view it by clicking here
you can also shop using that link.  The same link is to the right on my blog in pink and it says shop here.

I hope you enjoyed my creations on stampwhisperer.com today 

Thank you always.

Sneak Peek Holiday Catty Coming Soon!

It feels like we just launched the new Idea Book & Catalog.  August 1st I am launching the Holiday catty.  There is a ton of wonderful holiday decor ideas and the cards are just amazing.  Lots of kits for the beginners and even the old timers will love the kits.  I have pre-ordered alot! At convention I received lots of goodies from the Holiday catty too.  I am working on dates for classes to jump start your holiday cards I will post them as soon as I know when.  If you want to host a party at your home I can bring my goodies and we can make some cards and you can earn hostess benefits.  Just touch base with me.

Okay here is my sneak peek.  This is using a new snowflake stamp and big shot from the holiday catalog.  I used Pool Party ink, Pistachio Pudding ink and Encore Silver ink. Remember you can order all these products beginning August 1st.  If you need a Holiday Catalog mailed to you, again touch base with me I will be happy to send one to you.

Back from convention 2013

I had a blast at convention.  I have been with Stampin Up! for 5 years and every year I can't imagine how they can top it. But, they do.  These are my cards I brought to swap with other demonstrators. 

Have a great day!

Happy Holidays from Stampin' Up!

Where have I been?

Wow, what happened to November.  I have had an whirlwind of a month.  We went to the mountains to show Barry's sister Biltmore Estate and where Allison goes to college.  She got stuck at the airport with a nor-easter and couldn't get out. 

Me and my handsome hubby Barry

My beautiful kids Allie and Michael

Then...the following weekend Barry and I flew to NY on a Saturday morning to celebrate his sisters 50th wedding anniversary with his family.  We flew home Sunday evening.  It was alot of fun but exhausting.

This is us with our great niece Chelsea.  She is a cutie pie.

Then...Our dear friends from Rhode Island came for our annual get to together Thanksgiving trip on Tuesday and left yesterday.  Today I got to go to My Martha's to play with stamps.  Can I just tell you what great therapy stamping, creating and sharing are.  As I try to adjust back to my routine I can say I am exhausted and excited.  I have a card class on Saturday and I have peeps coming.  So if your in the triangle area call me and get in on the card class.  I will blog pictures of the cards we are doing.

Oooooh so cute!

I saw another Stampin Up! demo that made this and I had to copy it and share.  I had so much fun figuring out how the heck she made hers.  When it all came together I realized my roof is on the opposite side.  I love, love, love it.  Have a great day and if you want to make one too contact me and I will hook you up. Have a creative and awesome week. Huggs Liz
