Welcome!

Welcome to my stamping website!! I am excited to branch out into the world of cyberspace with my love of stamping. On this site you will find pictures, tutorials, news, events, and more!
Although I am a relatively new demonstator for Stampin' Up!, I have been stamping for a couple of years. Thanks be to my friend "T" for showing me how cool stamping really is. Before I became so addicted to stamping, I thought, "I would never have enough time to hand make a card." So I challenged myself. I timed how long it took me to drive to the store, pick out a card, drive back home, and mail it. Guess how long it took? Over an hour. Then I handstamped a simple, yet striking handmade card. Guess how long THAT took? About 5 minutes. How much did the handmade one cost me? 42 cents. Store bought? 2.95...plus gas.

I think I will stick to handmade. :-) Not to mention, I LOVE the reaction I get to my handmade cards and gifts!!!

Stay tuned to this website for pictures, tutorials, news, events, and more!!

6x6 Pages

Recently, I have had several requests for 6x6 pages at workshops. These are great for brag books!! With one Simply Scrappin' Kit, you can make up to 32 pages ( 4 sheets of textured cardstock cut into 6x6 squares, used front and back). The first sample was made using the Round Up Kit with the Outlaw designer paper and the "Wanted" Stamp Set, and the second two samples were made with the Round Up Kit and "Wanted" Stamp Set.

Here are a few samples:





















This close up is of an add-on that I used after the fact.....I stamped the big circle flourish from "Wanted" on Shrink Plastic, heated it with a heat gun, shrunk it, and low and behold.....it fit PERFECTLY in the center of the regular scallop circle flourish image. Too boot, the crop-a-dile worked like a dream, punching a hole in the middle - through that thick plastic and all!
