Stamp Club and Cards!

I am loving being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. I love coming up with the projects to do every month when we meet. This month was Christy's party at her house. Here's the gals working on the 3 tier pop up cake card that we made. Some of them wanted to kill me---------- but we worked through it and got it done. The projects turned out really cute!

Here's my mom Faleen, Michelle, Lue, Cassy and Cassie
















Elaine and Linda
















Christy, our hostess




















Michelle showing her cute cake card!



















My favorite of the 3 projects- using the "Fresh Cuts" cards and stamp set
















The front of the cake card (I know, retired scallop stamp, I have no birthday sets!)




















The inside of the card- using the Pink Flamingo Designer Series Paper. Cute huh!



























Here's the one using 4 new In-Colors and "Trendy Trees" stamp set. Nice and easy- I stitched on the paper with my sewing machine.




















Here's Christy's WOW project- it was very difficult but it turned out okay. Just don't look too close! This is using the Good Morning Sunshing Designer Series Paper.





















And for the inside- Cute daisy cut with the Big Shot. Man I love that thing!




















I made this post for you Tam! We miss you and love you tons!
Love Tiff

So much to do.........

So for Memorial Day, we decided to go fishing at our Reservoir. We had a fun time. We roasted hot dogs, and Case and Kyle even reeled in a huge fish! (not really) Miss Eva was good, and liked watching the ducks on the water and eating rocks (really.)








































































Fun Bags! For Case's Birthday, my sister Tara gave Case a big Capri Sun bag with swim stuff in it. She has been making these bags since she was in high school. Well, I decided it was time to make one, so this one was for my niece Kaylee's birthday. I also made a tiny one for my other niece Lila's birthday. The vinyl bag is a Stampin' Up! concoction. My sister-in-law got the instructions from Convention last year and I made 3 for Christmas presents (Tara, Mom, Tessa) They are so fun and so original. You can use absolutely any paper and ribbon in the world. I am making another for my church tote, so when I get it done, I'll post it. Fun and hand-made!
