Amazing Birthday With Stars!

028Hello!  On Saturday I had a team meeting/shoebox swap for my team and some of my Stampin’ Sisters.  We had a really nice time.  We talked about all of the fun those of us who went to convention had as well as what’s going on in the world of Stampin’ Up!.

The best part was our shoebox swap.  With a shoebox swap every participant designs a card and brings everything needed to make that card in…you got it….a shoebox! (or some other type of container)  🙂

We made some really fun cards.  This card was designed by Laura K..  Laura joined us at convention this year.  It was her very first one and she had a ball!

Laura used the Amazing Birthday stamp set that we received at convention.  Too fun!  I love all of the stars.  Of course I changed my card up a little from Laura’s sample.  Who wants to stay inside the box?  🙂

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Amazing Birthday!

001Today is my oldest son’s birthday so I thought I’d share this adorable make-and-take project from convention.  Don’t you love it?!

The stamp set used on this project is the new Amazing Birthday.  It’s a fun birthday set with lots of great images.

The pocket holder for the cards is made from one of pieces from the Gift Card Enclosure Pack (pg. 194 in the catalog).  The pocket holds three note cards and envelopes.  What a great gift!

I have so many little projects and chores to do but I don’t know where to start.  My craft room is a mess, I have a class to prepare for and an open house to get ready for as well as all sorts of other little projects.  At least I have time to work on things this week but it’s trying to get motivated that’s the problem.  Has that ever happened to you?  🙂

I guess I better get to work.  Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!
