10 Cards

Today, I went to a Stampin UP event that my Upline was hosting.  We made 10 cards and of course had tons of fun.  Her events are always fun though.  I got lots of great ideas and I can't wait to get my craft room cleaned up tomorrow and make a few cards before my spring break comes to an end.  Of course, I had to come home and order a few items that I didn't have, but likely I had $50 worth of free product to spend so that covered what I still needed to buy.  I love all of the cards that I made, but the first picture is my all time favorite card.  I have a few ideas for that card and I can't wait to make them.  Until next time, happy carding everyone.

"You can never have too much happy"

Last Tuesday, my friend and I went to a My Paper Pumpkin night.  Before we started working on our Paper Pumpkin's, we made this lively card.  I love how it turned.  We used a few stamps from past Paper Pumpkin's along with the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set.  Also, we used the new fringe scissors from the Occasions catalog.  Just when I think I have ordered everything from that catalog I wanted, I find one more thing I want.  But I love that I see how it is used on cards before I buy it so it doesn't just lay around without being used.  This card could be made using several different colors and could be used for different occasions.  Until next time, happy carding everyone.

Tonight's creation took a lot of cutting and estimating the size of the paper that I needed.  I had a few problems with the trimmer as well, but after changing the blade it started to work fine again.  Even though I wasn't really sure if the size of the paper was cut to the correct measurements for this size card, it still turned out pretty remarkable.  Until next time, happy carding everyone.

Note:  Since I am trying to keep my blog post shorter, I will be posting the supplies used at the bottom of the blog.  If you ever have questions on how to make a certain card, please don't hesitate to ask.
