Halloween goodies for Shane's class. Now that Ryan is in middle school, I don't have to make them for his calssmates anymore. That would cost me a mere fortune!

October 2013 Club Projects

New Chalk Talk set with matching framelits for easy cutting with the Big Shot. I had limited supplies so we used Real Red and Raspberry Ripple. Wildcard which one the girls got.....lol.

Brand new thinlits. It smartly cuts and scores this flip card. All you do is adorn it!

Found this cool Double Dutch Fold. I think its really neat having the gate fold on the bottom and the card top open upwards. Of course you can't tell in the pic the beautiful glitter on the mistletoe and the frosted finish snowflake adornment anchoring the Merry Christmas...

September 2013 Club Projects

This was the fan favorite! Festive Flurry bundle. It includes the stamps and the framelits to cut out your snowflakes. We also made matching Smoky Slate envelopes with the new Envelope Punch Board. Colors used in this card were Island Indigo and Smoky Slate along with some Silver Glitter paper.

A great fall/guy card.......love the new burlap ribbon!


This card was a funky flap. The card opens by the Label shape. When you close it, it tucks nicely under the flowers to stay closed. Of course it's topped with some dazzling diamonds!

Just for the record, we all took a break in August. No crafting was done.

June Paper Pumpkin!

Awesome Paper Pumpkin Kit!

I just loved this month's paper pumpkin! Of course I didn't relly read the instructions. I thought the hearts were to be stamped offset from the hexagon peek throughs.....nooooo, they were to be stamped so you could see them properly through the see throughs.....I have to be different....hahaha

June's Club PRojects

New designer paper!

I just love the new pistachio pudding.....and I'm not a 'green' fan

Here is the inside of the lever card

Lever card.

The top shee with the white pattern is actually acetate with white pattern, new designer paper!

May's Club Projects (I'm so sorry for being late....)

This was our Father's Day card

Everyone loved this card....so sparkly! I ended up doing this card for our Promontory wrap up card class.

This wasn't for club however, we did make this card for the Watson ladies night make and take as well as the Promontory wrap up card class in June.

Brand new mosaic madness bundle, stamp set with matching punch and there is also an embossing folder that matches.

This was a movement card. Great for those unexpected last minute kid birthdays!

April's Club Cards

Great kid Magic Card using a velcro dot to keep it shut

Open the magic card the yellow panels slide open like a curtain to reveal the cute Happy Birthday Octopus holding cupcakes.

Thought this would make a great guy card.

This was a choice of a Mother's Day Card or a Happy Birthday card for my club ladies.

This card was super simple and easy. Meant to look like a chalkboard.
