More Great Samples

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY LITTLE SIS, KRIS!  Hope your day is terrific :)

Here are some more great samples to share with you from my monthly downline meeting.

This one is from Deb.  Love those shopping bags!  The square punches make it super quick and easy to do a project like this.

 
This is from Pam.  These square scallop cards are the bomb!  I like to use a piece of cardstock that is 5" x 9".  Then fold that in half and lie it just at the top of the square scallop die...before the actual top of it.  Makes a fun fold for this card.

This is how the inside looks...see how the square scallop is just one big long card?

Have a great day!  Lori :)

Just a few more days to get the SALE-A-BRATION special.  March 31st is the last day.

More Samples From Our Downline Meeting

Don't you just love seeing other people's work?  I don't come up with an original idea very often...but I do look at other projects and then can copy them.

Here are more great ideas from our group.

This one is made by Deb.  The stamp set is called GARDEN FROM THE HEART.  Love those texturized polka dots on the white cardstock.

 
This is from Dianna.  The stamp set is VINTAGE VOGUE.

 
This is that yummy CHOCOLATE BUNNY stamp made by Ruth Anne.  There is a lot of detail to notice on this card.

 
Have a great day!  Lori :)

March Downline Meeting

The ALL SCHUCH UP group met for our monthly meeting to stamp, swap ideas and have lots of fun.  Here are some of the projects:

Stacy brought this project for us to do.  Very clever...to make the tulip, you use the wing from the EXTRA-LARGE TWO-STEP BIRD PUNCH. 

 
This project was brought by Wendy.  Love the black and white!!!  The stamp set used in the background looks so awesome.  It is called EXTREME ELEMENTS.

 
Look at this darling fabric bag made from the scallop square.  Pam sent this for us to be inspired!  Just the perfect size for a little girl.

 
Have a great day!  I will post more later.  Lori :)

Message In A Bottle follow-up

So how many of you sent an empty bottle through the US Postal System?  I talked about this in January and showed the idea (which they showed us at Leadership).  I thought it was just too cool not to share it.

Here are the bottles we mailed:

It was fun to talk to the postal workers.  They told me that at least 25 bottles were mailed from Le Mars.  Yeah!  It was a great project!!!  And the recipients of these three bottles were very excited and very curious when they received them!

Valentine's Day was a great time to send them...but this a project for ANY TIME OF THE YEAR!

Have a great day!  Lori :)

A "Pretty" For Your Hair = Flower Pin

I made this flower barette for my adorable niece, Addie and she calls it her "pretty!"

 
I cut fabric with the BIG SHOT and used the FLOWER FOLDS DIE, the SCALLOP CIRCLE #2 DIE, and the CIRCLES #2 DIE.  I have been having so much fun mixing and matching different styles, etc.  I really need to get a video made or better pictures of a tutorial. 

According to Addie's mom.....she wants to wear it almost every day.  The big plus....is that Addie has super fine hair and it stays in!  I used an alligator clip.

What a beautiful girl!  Guess what she is going to get in her Easter basket???  More "pretties!"

Supplies:

#113469 Scallop Circle #2 Die for $19.95
#114526 Circles #2 Die for $15.95
#115970 Flower Folds Die for $42.95
#116312 Sherbet Designer Buttons (pretty in pink, certainly celery, bashful blue, pumpkin pie); package of 30 for $7.95

Can you think of someone whom you would like to give a "pretty" to?

Have a great day!  Lori :)
