Chocolate!
My daughter's pre-school is collecting donations for a family dinner and each class is collecting items for baskets for a specific theme. How excited I was to find out our theme was chocolate! Another excuse to pull out my "Eat Chocolate" stamp set! These are some of the items I made to donate! So quick and so easy! I hope you feel more inspired than hungry!

These were our Valentines from Nora for neighbors and friends. They were quick and easy. A little designer series paper wrapped around Hershey's nuggets and put in a bag. A 4x4 square of real red dry embossed with the polka dot embossing folder and the big shot folded in half as a topper. A little white organza ribbon wrapped around the top with a white heart punched on red layered on top! Quick easy, cute and loved by all! What a great idea for you to use for any occasion! Shop now on my website to look at all of the great designer series papers, stamps and punches available for your next wow idea!

BIG news
These cards are dedicated to my little sister-my hero, who just got the news this week that she is 5 years cancer free! Can I get a WOO HOO friends? I donated these as thank you cards for her relay for life fundraising efforts! She is AMAZING and I so proud of her and her fighting spirit! She has twice survived this monstrous disease and now she has beat it!
For you stampers who would like to CASE this card, the card itself just uses designer series paper. This is retired cottage wall as she needed purple for the cause of cancer itself. I just used a ribbon loop and affixed it with a brad. Easy peasy! The inside is stamped with hope happens, which is from the stamp set, "Hope Happens."
The envelope (If you stamp with me, you know I have a no naked envelope rule;) is stamped in pink with, "Ribbon of Hope," and love life, live life comes from the "You're a Gem" stamp set in the new mini.
Congratulations Rachelle and thank you for being an inspiration to me and so many others. We love you!

Valentines, Chocolate and Royalty
When thinking about how I'd like to be treated on Valentine's Day, I thought well, what goes better with a sweet Valentine than chocolate of course and being treated like a queen for a day? These fun cards are not just great for Valentine's Day-the second biggest card sending holiday of the year-but for anytime fun as well. Join me for my January card class and make 3 of each of these fabulous cards to send to your family and friends for just $20.
Read on to find out more about these sweet cards!
This card is made from the new set, Eat Chocolate. I personally believe this set should be owned by every woman! This stamp in particular is my mantra these days with a busy toddler. Accomplishing anything seems to take extra effort, but add a bit of chocolate, and all is well! I even used chocolate chip paper to complete the chocolate theme! Add a little pink pirouette and you have a the perfect pairing for an adorable Valentine or anytime card!
I LOVE this card! Beautiful, fun and easy to make and yes, very, very versatile! From the spring mini this card uses the You're a Gem stamp set paired with Artistic Etchings from the 2010-2011 Idea Book and Catalog. Come get your princess on and create this card with me!
Isn't this the sweetest Valentine card ever? This uses both the Be My Valentine stamp and the new tulip embossing folder from the spring mini. Sweet, simple and it says it all-perfect for your sweetheart or your daughter!
Don't you love this little Valentine/Friend card? I did mention versatility didn't I? This features the new Valentine DSP from the spring mini! Come see the rest of the pages, or shop my website if you can't wait!

Decor Elements
Do you know that Stampin' Up has an entire product line dedicated to home decor and decorating? They are called Decor Elements and I love them. I have a traditional flower applied to the wall in our powder room, and I have more in mind for our home as we paint. There are some beautiful sayings, much like you see on HGTV and you wonder where do they get those? Umhmmm!
They are versatile, easy to apply and remove-without damage to your walls-and come in various colors and sizes. But you know what is really so, so cool? Decor elements is not just for walls.
Here are a few samples of some cute holiday plates. (I also used them on the mugs for Snowman Soup for the craft fair.) These are the easiest things to make! (Imagine what you neighbors will think when you take these to them with homemade cookies on top? These use both rub ons from the holiday mini as well as cut snowflakes from the Bigshot. They apply quite easily as they do to walls, canisters, toyboxes, you name it!
Want to learn more? Visit my webisite and look under catalogs at our definitely Decorative to see what's available for you to use! Great gifts for yourself and others at a great value!

Fall Fun
A couple of ideas using the stamp sets Spooky and Fall Foliage. (When you live in Texas, you have to create you own foliage, so this stamp set is a must.) As for Mr. Mummy up there, that's just some fun with tearing paper, sponging and some circle punches! For details on how to create these beautiful cards or supplies needed to make them yourself, feel free to contact me by clicking on the button on the right hand side of my blog!
