Love & Laughter card by Susan Patterson

By Josee · Saturday, February 25th, 2012 · No Comments »

Well we are on our road trip back to Ottawa now and if all is going well we should be in Minneapolis having fun at the Mall of America. We are taking a bit of a longer way home as we want to stop in at some sites that we've never been and Mall of America is one of those places!

My kids are super excited to have fun…and my daughter was looking forward to doing a bit of shopping…hopefully we have time to do both.

Today's card was made by Susan Patterson and the fun part is I even go to see her work on them on the way to leadership at the Minneapolis airport.

She did such a wonderful job…I love the elegance and beauty of this card.

Take It to Heart card by Maxine Conrad

By Josee · Friday, February 24th, 2012 · No Comments »

Today's the day…..MOVING DAY!!! Everything is packed and now I'm just hoping that the moving company is quick to load as once they are done we are leaving for our first destination on the way to Ottawa….Grand Forks, ND for a night.

I'm hoping that we can get there early enough to go eat dinner at the Golden Corral. I love buffets since it means that my whole family is happy with what they eat…PLUS the dessert buffet after doesn't hurt!

Today's card was made by Maxine Conrad who works for Stampin' Up! and she is such a lovely person it was great to get one of her cards at leadership!!

Maxine used the Take It to Heart stamp set from the Occasions Mini on page 14.

You’re My Type card

By Josee · Tuesday, February 21st, 2012 · No Comments »

Happy Tuesday Friends!

3 more days till the moving truck and we are slowly progressing. My husband is doing most of the packing as I try to keep up the fun with Stampin' Up!

I was asked a few questions the other day that I thought I'd answer here:

Q: What if I have to place an order with you after you move?
A: I can take orders from anyone in Canada. You can place your order through my online store: www.stampingjo.com/store or simply send me an email at josee@stampingjo.com and I can take of you that way! Your order will be sent directly to your door and you'll pay the same price as if I was local.

Q: Can I schedule a party with you when you return to Ottawa?
A: Absolutely!!! I'll be ready to have parties again as soon as I get there. I won't have a stamp room for a bit, so I'll bring my supplies to you! Remember, March is still Sale-A-Bration and a GREAT time to plan a stamping party!

Today's card was one we made at my card classes this month. I got the idea from someone on Stampin' Connection (our private demonstrator forum and gallery)…thanks goodness we have this resource we can use to share ideas! There are literally thousands of ideas!!

(I can't remember who orginally made the card, if it's you…email me and I'll gladly give you credit!)

It's hard to tell from the picture but we used the Stripes Textured Impressions Embossing folder on the card. Did you know that you can get that folder for FREE as part of the Sale-A-Bration promotion?!

Many people have missed it…it's on the bottom of page 16 of the Sale-A-bration brochure.
