Save 15% Butterfly Bundle. Starts Today!

Hello all,

I know another post. Well my little one is trying to earn some more points to be able to get some more supplies from Stampin' Up (SU), so I was asked to put this on my blog to help her advertise. LOL She is 12 with a major love of paper and embellishments. She is going to be just like her mother.  Anyways this is a special that is really a great one, as this bundle is extremely nice. I love butterflies and this stamp set is one of my favorites. I use it in my scrapbooking all the time and having the punch has made it much easier for me. Now I am not fussy cutting out the butterflies.

Pictures of Mini Album Class #2 for August

Hello to all you wonderful crafters,

The day is going really well and I am finishing up on some many of my "To Do List" items. That is a really wonderful thing for me, as I never get to the end of a list. LOL Pretty sad I know, but every dang time I turn around there are several more things that have been added to my list. Well the good thing is today, I got to finish getting my post done for my Blog. YEAH!!!!

Well on to the fun stuff. This is a 5" x 7" Pocket Mini that I made for my August Class #2 Mini Albums. I love the papers that were used in this album, cause it reminds me both of Spring time and Fall. The album consist of the "Buzz & Bumble" paper and embellishment collections from Close to My Heart (CTMH). I also included "Backyard Basics" stamp set and framelit from Stampin' Up (SU) as well as 2 buttons from my stash.

Here is the front of the Album:

 
Here is the inside of the Album:
 

 
 
This album has 3 pockets on the right side and 4 pockets on the left side. On the right side, there are 2 side/top open pockets that hold a large and medium tag. The 3rd pocket on the right holds a large photo mat style tag and opens to one side. On the lefts side, there are 3 top load pockets with 2 small tags in each (a total of 6 small tags), with a stamp bee as the pull tab. The 4th  pocket on the left holds another large photo mat style tag and opens to one side.

Well hope you all liked this Mini, I would love to here your comments on what you think.
 
Hope your week is blessed with good happenings. Till next time,
 
Kathryn

Pictures of the Mini Album Class #1 for August

Hello and hope your week is going well. Mine is going great!!! I found out a couple of weeks ago that I am going to be a Grandmother for the 1st time in April 2014. I am tickled pink or blue, not sure which yet, but it is such a wonderful thought. I actually thought I would dread the day I would be called Grandma, Nana, or any of the other nicknames that are used. LOL I am so looking forward to spoiling that baby to the ends of the earth.

Ok enough, I need to come back to now not the future. So I had 2 classes for my Mini Albums this month. The first one was 3 different wallet size mini's using Close To My Heart (CTMH) "Surf's Up" papers and embellishments, and stamp sets D1538 "Bright Sunshiny Day" and C1544 "Surf's Up" from the WSOTG (Workshop on the Go). They turned out so cute and everyone loved them. Here are some pictures of each of them.

Album #1 - Simple Fold Mini





Album #2 - Wallet Style Mini



 
 
Album #3 - File Folder Mini
 



 
 
Well I hope you enjoyed my pictures of the 3 mini albums that were in my Class #1. I will have the other Album in another post today. 
 
Hope your week is blessed with good happenings. Till next time,

August Card Class

Hello to all you Cardmakers and Scrapbookers,

Just a quick look at the cards that were my August 2013 card class. All products used are from Stampin' Up.

This first card is my favorite. I love the owl punch and how you can change is colors. He is just to cute. This card is an A2 size card, so no extra postage.

 
I decide to add an Owl and Branch to have the card flow to the inside.

 
This card is also an A2 size card that uses several of the SU punches and a Edgelit from the Finishing Touches Edgelits collection. I did color the 3 pearls on the card with my Copic markers to bring in the green and used 1/8" ribbon from my stash.

 
I pull over the front to the inside using the Boho Blossoms punch.

 
This card fits into an A2 size envelope perfectly. I know that it has a special name, but I call it a Gift Card Holder Card. I used the Blossom punch and 1 1/4" Scallop Circle punch.

 
The inside has a nice area to write a hand greeting or you can stamp one if you would like. I left off the sentiment, cause wasn't sure what people wanted to say.

 
Well hope you all liked my cards, I will have another post showing 3 wallet size mini albums and 1 Pocket mini later today.
 
Hope your week is blessed with good happenings. Till next time,
 
Kathryn
