I made a card to celebrate National Scrapbook Day....I forgot to post it....ok, another year, another few brain cells missing! So, here it is....
I love the window dies, and I purchased the cake dies from Karen some time ago. I made a card similar to this one a few months back and when I saw the Melissa Frances Every Day Is A Holiday paper line, I thought it's time to make another Sweet Shoppe card. Here's the inside....
By now you know I love dies. Karen is carrying a new line, one I'd not heard of...The company is Little B. I love the sentiment dies and they are perfect for cards....not too big and not too small. Does this sound like what baby bear might say? As you can see, I'm using Little B, Spellbinder Poppystamps and Memory Box dies....One can never have too many dies! My husband might not agree!
Back to National Scrapbook Day Celebration....I forgot to take my camera and worse than that, I forgot my phone had a camera....so, I took no photos. I'm hoping someone posts photos, I'd love to share. It was a fantastic 2 days of crafting. Pizza and salad party on Friday. Lots of snacks and goodies on our table. I gave a demonstration on the Spellbinder tool that the bits out of the dies (exact name not known...hey, in my tool excitement, I threw away the packaging!) Anyway it works and it works EXTREMELY well! I demonstrated it on a Cheery Lynn Doily die there must be 100 or more little pieces that need poking out of the metal die. They fell out with no effort....none at all! I am Jazzed!
Saturday started with breakfast with the girls. I shall not share the conversation, but it was about baseball....Many technical questions were answered! Some needed follow-up! Then to Karen's to find out that our desks had more goodies and there were donuts and coffee and sweet treats. Our set of tables had 8 girls 3 of whom I did not know. Within a few hours we were all laughing like school girls as we crafted away. I'm not sure if any of us finished many projects, but we sure had fun.
I hope my thousand words created at least one picture for you.....looking forward to the Christmas crop. I hope to see everyone there and maybe, just maybe, I'll remember to take a photo or two!
Off for now. Catching up on posts and designing today. Tomorrow it's off to crop with the Monday group and a day to celebrate Cathy's birthday!
Hugs from me to you!

ReplyDeleteMary this is so creative l love everything about it x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Mary.
ReplyDeleteNow - I can TOTALLY relate to your photo problem as I did EXACTLY the same thing at a recent Glitter Pot demonstration day. I nearly killed my husband when he reminded me WHEN I GOT HOME that my phone has a camera on it (until recently I only had a phone that you could talk on and text with!) d'oh!
Lesson learned!

I love all my dies too, I think if my house was on fire they would be what I'd risk my neck for!! Lol, that ans sock wool of course! Very pretty card, I love he little window die too, one more for the list! Thanks so much for the anniversary wishes, it's supposed to be 35F again in Michigan tonight so I'm definitely looking forward to a sandy beach and warm weather again!

A really different and lovely card! I love the window dies too! I really like how the one side is like outside looking in the window and the inside is like after going through the door!! Wonderful and so pretty too!
