Mini Envelope Album

Hi! Boy it's been awhile since my last post. We just got back from our stamping cruise and thought I'd share one of the projects we did. There was 20 of us stampers that went and we had a fabulous time. The weather was absolutely gorgeous! We never know what the weather's going to do around this time of year so we were really lucky. It's a long weekend getaway, we don't go far but it's still alot of fun. We set sail from Seattle, head up to Canada and stop at Victoria, then onto Nanaimo and back to Seattle.

So, here's one project my upline, Nancy, demonstrated. I just love this little project and it really isn't all that difficult to make. There's a great tutorial over on Inking Addict Designs, click here. Nancy made a few small changes, like making it about half the size but it's pretty much the same as the tutorial. I'll post more projects later. :o)

Projects on the Cruise

Hi, here are the projects we did on the cruise:These cards were done on Saturday for World Card Making Day. There were four, but for some reason I can't find one...sorry Jackie!
Cute lunch box. Most all projects were made with SU! Urban Gardens DS paper and SU! Pocket Silhouettes stamp set.
Here's a journal and accordian book we put together. Too cute!

Here we decorated a glass votive by rolling up pieces of SU! Holiday Treasures DS paper. Then used the Big Shot and Basket & Blossoms die to make the Halloween treat baskets out of the SU! Ghostly Greetings DS paper.

If anyone would like the instructions for any of these projects, feel free to email me or leave a comment. Thanks and hope you enjoy looking!

Stamping & Cruising

Well, I just returned from our first stamping & cruising weekend. What a blast!!! There were 4 of us SU! demonstrators and 20 of our customers that joined us on this 3 night cruise from Seattle to Victoria (Canada) to Nanaimo (Canada) then back to Seattle. Each of us 4 demonstrated a card for World Card Making Day, then demonstrated several projects... decorating lunch boxes, journals, glass votives and more which I'll post pictures of later. We definately kept them busy and still had time to enjoy the other activties on and off the ship. We are definately planning to do this again next year. I'm pooped out and will post more tomorrow! But here's a picture of the ship we were on.Sorry the picture is a little small. Would you believe I forgot my camera? Oh well, I have lots of folks emailing me pictures :o)
