Quick & Cute Halloween Bag
sn’t this such a quick and cute Halloween gift bag? Ann brought it home from the shoebox swap on Sunday.
Bringing it home flat to finish at home was the smart thing to do because 3-D things don’t always travel so well if you want a pristine project to share.
New Holiday Catalog Video
When Ann went to the Shoebox Swap on Saturday, she had done all the stamping on her project. All the stampers had to do was assemble the layers and attach the pearl.
But some people wanted to know how we did it, so we figured we’d make a technique video to share how to make a Fall Rainbow Card.
Fall Holiday Sneak Peek
So now Ann’s back from the stamp soiree she attended with some 24/7 Stampers and about 23 other demonstrators from Northern California.
They had a shoebox swap where everyone makes each others’ cards. They put the supplies in shoebox sized boxes so that’s why they call them shoebox swaps.
Here is Ann’s card made with the new Lighthearted Leaves from the new Holiday Catalog.

Purple Happy Birthday
Whoever loves purple would absolutely love getting a purple birthday card – especially one that’s got Rich Razzleberry and Blackberry Bliss on it! And add a little Delightful Dijon to brighten things up.
Double the Inspiration!
What’s inspired you lately? We got a nice note from Sharon about how she really likes the blog.
That really made our day! I barked out loud when Ann read it to me.
So we went through some of the swap cards that Ann got at the Stampin’ Up! Convention to get our own inspiration. We found one that …
Come on Down to the Farmer’s Market!
Do you like the country look? It’s a path that this dog doesn’t go down often.
We live across the street from an orchard! If I didn’t know any better, I’d say we lived in the country!
But we don’t. The city limit runs right behind my back yard where I run and play to keep my pup-like figure.
So here’s our little country card made with …

Get Your Kits for Half Price!
Oh, my goodness!

Well, check out this video featuring the August kit! It is AWESOME! They’re grrreat time savers. And what

In a few days, you should be receiving
