To celebrate Valentine's Day, its a party! On Feb 1, I am having a Valentine "lOVE yOU mUCH!" Craft Party from 1-4pm, which leaves plenty of time to finish our fun projects.

My favourite new punch is here ready and waiting - the Heart punch and we have the delicious new designer papers to work with from Stampin' Up!: Candy Lane.

{fun} + {new friends} = {a good time! } Please come if your in the area - just contact me!

Yes - that's me, a blue-green machine as lately I have been seeing blue and greens in the house as I craft away.....I just love these colour families!!! Especially if its a "blue-green" colour like your turquoise, or teal or like Baja Blue {Stampin' Up! In Color}.....they just tickle me 'teal'!

So here are some of the ones I have been making - one in particular I will be saying more on later as its a new technique I just tried out yesterday.

Hope you like these!

Wow - here is something free for you crazy stampers out there - lol! I came across this idea thanks to a woman named Jackie at her blog: click here I don't know her personally but I see that she is an avid crafter - go Jackie go!

Anyways I thought her pocket planners were excellent and wanted to pass it on to you because she referenced a place called The PocketMod: the free recyclable personal planner....click here

Hope you take the time to check them out!



{few mins. goes by.......you're back} See? I want to try now too - don't you! :)

Here is the cutest sneak peek for you SU! fans - its a whimsical number with all sorts of fun stamps included to give you many days of crafty fun. I love the little bee figures! You can stamp them anywhere your heart desires - and then the beehive, the honeypot....its just too fun.

I know it is going to be one of my favorites - after all, this is the 'beehive' - lol!

You will be able to find this in the new Stampin' Up Catalog 2009 soon to be released.

Contact me if you would like a new catalog - there is a way to get it free as well, :)
