VIDEO: Chalkboard Technique by Kyla

Posted on June 11, 2009June 11, 2009 by Josee

I’m really excited to show you my 9 year old daughter’s FIRST STAMPING VIDEO! I asked her to pick a technique from a few I selected and she decided she wanted to teach the Chalkboard Technique.

I’d love it if you leave her a comment to let her know what you think!

Stampin’ Girls Re-Cap

Posted on June 7, 2009June 8, 2009 by Josee

This was my 6th year hosting a local Stampin’ Up! mini Convention called "Stampin’ Girls". It’s such a fun event for me as I get to connect with other demonstrator’s, stamp, learn techniques, and eat, eat, eat!

It’s alot of work each year, but, definetely worth it!

Here’s a collage I created of our day. I took over 250 pictures…so, I couldn’t include them all…but, this will give you a glimpse of our day!

One of my favourite things about Stampin’ Up! is all the friendships I’ve made.

Do need more friends??? Join my team of demonstrators!

You’ll get to take advantage of discounts, promotions, pre-orders and so much more!

Get Ready for Father’s Day-part 3

Posted on June 6, 2009June 9, 2009 by Josee

This is another adorable Father’s Day card created by Marlayne Hardy for our share table at the Stampin’ Girls convention. I love these origami shirts and it’s fun to see the difference between cards when you use different designer series paper. It’s hard to tell from the picture but the white cardstock was textured with polka-dot’s using the Big Shot and Texturz plates.

I did a search for instructions on making the shirt and found some fabulous instructions shared by Brenda (QBee) on SCS.
