Happy BOO day to you and for all that have little ones, have a fun and safe trick -n-treat!
WOW, I have AMAZING memories of being a child and going to have fun with my siblings and then coming home and dumping out the loot and swapping back and forth with candies!
I know that many children do not get to enjoy the fun that we had ourselves and that makes me sad. My memories were always handmade costumes that were FUN.
Yesterday, my new friend from Canada and I went to an adorable town called Georgetown TX while we were on our way back to Austin….One word for this town = ADORABLE!!!!
They were as a community having a safe trick -n-treat and it was FABULOUS to see so many adorable costumes and parents having good old fashion fun with their kids…this just made my day!
Just a reminder, today is the LAST day that you can take advantage of the buy 3 get 1 free DSP SALE! You can click on the image below to see the offerings!
The past 24 hours have been a pack up and move to a new destination and truthfully, my time and internet have been minimal….so in advance, sorry for this short post.
Still having a BLAST and tomorrow I will have more parade of beauties for you! Living out of a suitcase is challenging….but I love a challenge, especially when you meet new people and create new friendships!

Are you just lovin’ seeing all of the FUN and INSPIRATION that is coming your way? It always makes me so happy inside that so many of you like to send cards in 🙂
Please remember to share that wonderful love and inspiration you have with leaving these talented stampers some good old simple stampin’ love! I am sure that I am having a great time in the “middle of no where” and I promise that I am taking it all in!
Enjoy!
How can you not have a FAB-O Holiday Card without some good old fashion Ornaments! LOVE the simplicity of this card but I will say that I EXTRA LOVE the “BLING” on the ornaments….way to go – this is a detail that I often forget but WOW…makes a statement!
O.k. – this is fun…no, it is SUPER FUN! Yesterday I showed this card to many and they were all going nuts over it! I am sure Teresa that you are going to have to “share the fun” of the ins and outs of making this beauty! I have taken several angles so you can see but the thing that is great is the fact that it mails in a regular envelope with no additional postage!!!
I think that this framelit should win the award of most unique in the Holiday Catalog! LOVE IT and it is way over looked (I am going to blog about it soon and I know that you are going to love it) I adore the expression on this Santa….he is really, really checking his list! I wish that you could see the beauty of the Washi Tape….the copper just sparkles! SUPER FUN!
O.k. – my heart is skipping some beats….LOVE THIS CARD! I am a sucker for plaids and this one from the Warmth and Cheer DSP is over the top!. Way to go for the angles…it makes it soooo interesting! This is a single stamp that I am going to be blogging about soon as well….and WOW – I would get it…a great classic stamp and I just adore how Sharon added the interest to the side with the bell and greens!
Hear we go folks…a FUN card from our dear bloggin’ friend, Chris R from Iowa!!! WOW – you really, REALLY outdid yourself in this! FUN to the MAX! The snowball on the side just makes it and I love the way that it is a “fun fold” card…but also the way that you used different DSP patterns! I bet you I know who is going to love this….CALEB will 🙂
Well…..DAY #2 and more to go….I am so proud of each of you and I am so happy to showcase your work. There are no “right words” to say how much fun I am having…I wish that each and everyone of you were here. The best way that I can sum it up is….KINDNESS…this group all is kind and loves creating and sharing their talents ~ to me, it doesn’t get any better than that!
Until tomorrow…..BOO!

This is so exciting when we have a card swap. I admit “HANDS DOWN” that I get as excited as you do because it is always fun to see others ideas and inspiration from people ALL OVER our wonderful country!
Just a couple of “Housekeeping Tips” for you….If you do not see your card here today….PLEASE DO NOT WORRY as I will be having several posts showcasing your cards. I guess that you will just have to keep popping back to see YOUR beauty on the blog.
I did my best to take photos for you and edit them…there might be some cards that I feel the necessity to take more than one picture…why???? Details, angles of placement etc….if you only have 1 picture, please do not be sad – I LOVE and SUPPORT everyone’s work…
Before we get to the cards for today, the LAST housekeeping comment” – Please, please “leave some love” with a comment to these people that have shared their talent. I am always so incredibly proud of each and every one of you.Thank you for participating in the card swap!
Remember, I am in the middle of no where so I will do my best to be back to you tomorrow. I am away for a while as after this is On Stage so it was a juggling act to get my ducks in a row for my blog!
LOVE the way that you stamped on the inside… this is something that I rarely show you guys as I seem to leave mine blank until I get ready to send it – SUPER FUN and I am happy that you are “NICE”
Clean, crisp and classic! This is my kind of card and I need to share…this card was made by a special person…”Margie…aka “Auntie “M” to me was a past Creative Memories person. She was one that I knew I could call at 5:30 in the morning as we are both early birds!
O.k. – is this cute or WHAT!!!! Lisa….you did it again – one super adorable card! I definitely feel a CASE coming on with this one. Just too darn clever how you cut the zig zag strips. This is a great example of how using multiple DSP prints work!
What an elegant Christmas Card. There is something stamped on the inside but I just had to take another picture to share with you the details and layers. The bow, ovals, the embossing – just wonderful
Is this super clever or what!!!! This is a 3 1/2″ square card and who would have thought to add this swirly top to the present!!! I cannot wait to try this myself. The shape is perfect for a present. Toni….please email me your address as I did not seem to find a return envelope for you. Just love your card and am excited to give it a try!
Great job ladies….a HUGE ROUND OF APPLAUSE!!!! I am looking so forward to my time today….learning, laughing and meeting new friends, life is wonderful!

HOWDY Stampers! I am kickin’ my heels and feeling like Dorothy on the Wizard of Oz all at the same time!.
Are you saying ~ WHAT THE HECK IS SHE TALKING ABOUT!
Please let me explain. If you follow my blog (and I sure hope that you do…and if not, hit that subscribe button so you do not miss a dose of daily FUN!) Well…before the new catalog was unveiled I gave to my readers (3) wishes that I was hoping that Stampin’ Up! would come out with.
None of my wishes came true but I have been clicking my heels non-stop and guess what ? Tuesday my stitched framelits wishes will be granted! I am doing the super happy dance and I know you will love them to!
Stop whatever you are doing and hit that play button and get excited! I simply cannot tell you how excited I am about this….and read on after you watch the quick video….(I have more great news – a 25% discount on a selected group of stamps).
Now here is more exciting news…there will be a handful of stamps that will be discounted for the month of November. I was super happy with the ones that they picked.
Here is another “touch your heart” kind of video that showcases another beautiful cards made with these framelits. I feel like I am watching a Hallmark Channel. I think that it is a great card, one that I will case.
I am flying high somewhere between North Carolina and Texas. I am planning on starting the parade of cards for the posts over the weekend. Just a “HEADS UP” where the retreat is going to be, I will have no cell/internet service so my finders are crossed that your in boxes will be filled with smiles over the next couple of days!
