MY DIGITAL STUDIO

This is the first thing I've created with Stampin' Up's MY DIGITAL STUDIO! I'm getting certified in this new area, so one of my requirements is making a card--so this is the front of a greeting card that I'm giving to Nathan as a thank-you for taking me on our cruise. It's pretty simple, but I'm super excited about it!

KIDS PARTY!!!

My kids LOVE playing in my scrapbook room: they love getting into the scrap paper, using the punches, and stamping with all the different stamp sets. And their friends also enjoy playing in there (yes, even the boys). When I do workshops, the hostess's children always want to stay and "help" with the projects, so I thought I would have a special party just for the kids (and their moms/grandmas/aunts/neighbors). Here are the details:

• DATE: Saturday September 26th


• TIME: 10:00 a.m.


• WHERE: My House


• COST: $5.00


• WHAT to bring: adhesive (gluestick, glue pen, or glue tape)


• RSVP deadline: Friday September 11th


• MAIL-IN Kits: mailed on September 25th

And here is what we'll be making that day:

what the boys would make

what the girls would make

boy and girl treat bag holders (includes treats)

boy and girl monkey cards

boy and girl cards

***A parent/guardian must be present for the child to attend. I hope to see you soon!

Baby Shower Goodies

Here's the diaper cake I made for my cousin's baby shower. The Pooh doesn't really coordinate, but I wanted to use him because my cousin loves Pooh. I used my Big Shot and Butterfly Die to make the butterflies...it was so EASY and I think they turned out cute!

These were some prizes for the shower...altered baby jars with M&Ms.

More prizes...these are kit-kat bars wrapped in designer paper.

The shower was great and we're excited to meet Katie's new baby girl!
