You're invited!

A couple of times a year, I get together with a group of Reno demonstrators and we host a day of stamping.  This year, the date for the event is March 19.  We have so much fun stamping!  The guests have a great time stamping as well as fun seeing each other.  If you'd like to join us for our Sale-A-Bration event, we still have space and we'd love to have you join us!  Even if you have a demonstrator already, we don't mind!  Come play.  There is a fee for the event which covers the 12 projects you will make, raffle prizes and refreshments.  It is a lovely afternoon spent in the company of like-minded paper crafters.  The event flier and registration is below.  Deadline for registration is March 12.  Just print the flier and send it to me to register.  My address is on the flier.  If you'd like to pay using paypal, just email me with your information and send payment to k-chubb@att.net in Paypal. 

Howdy!

I love this card I designed.  Is that bragging?  It is really rare that I create something that knocks my own socks off.  I have been on a kick with small cards attached to larger ones, and this uses that same idea.  The whole card is just different.  I think it could work for a male or female as well. Okay, take a peek and then I'll give you some specifics.



edited to add suplly list since a few have asked! :-)

This card is for a swap I do with other ladies using whatever SU supplies we have.  It is so much fun to get the swaps in the mail.  I am swapping with some talented ladies, and the fact that the items do not need to be current really opens up the surprises.  The set I used here is a retired set called Bronco Buster.  I really like western stuff.  The main card stock is Really Rust. Complementary colors are Chocolate Chip and Natural Ivory.  The details behind the star are colored with a Crumb Cake Marker, Chocolate Chip Marker and Really Rust Marker.  It is hard to see in the picture, but there is also some Chocolate chip sponging around all of the card stock edges.  A few Basic Rhinestones and the card just sparkles! See the tab at the top of the square?  It has the ribbon pull.  This is what is pulled out from behind the mini card.

Cute little place to write a note!  If a person wrote enough nice stuff on the tag, the recipient may end up using it as a book mark!  And finally the inside of the little card (which measures 5 1/2 x 4 1/4).

I used some retired Hodgepodge with the buckle and the spiral on the tag.  I just love the buckle on the inside!  The main piece of 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 Really Rust card stock does not open.  See!  A very different card!

Okay, now I need to find those socks I knocked off myself. :-)

Have a great day.  Thanks for sharing some of your time.
