Stampin’ Gals Gone Wild Wednesday

Posted on September 18, 2013September 25, 2013 by Josee

Gift Card Holder Card using the Envelope Punch Board

Hi friends! Today is Stampin' Gals Gone Wild Wednesday and it's my turn to show you something fun!

I love today's project so much I could just squeel! When I received my new Envelope Punch Board, I immediately thought of making a gift card holder on a card with it!

I think more and more people are giving out Gift Cards as gifts and it's fun to find way's to make creative gift card holders. This one uses some Vellum Cardstock and I love the look of it when it is embossed using the Big Shot!

Want to see how to make this project, check out today's video

I’m off to Utah for Founders Circle…..

Posted on September 17, 2013September 13, 2013 by Josee

Today is the day…I'm leaving for the Founder's Circle Trip to St. George Utah. I'm going to spending 5 days being pampered by Stampin' Up! with the Top 20 Demonstrators in Canada and the Top 100 in the US.

We are seriously treated like queens with fun activities, projects to make, yummy treats to eat, games, gifts on our beds at night and so much more. AND of course being able to spend time relaxing by the hot tub with friends is something I'm really looking forward to.

Tonight I'm hanging out in Vegas with 6 other Canadian Top Achievers…don't worry, we'll try to be GOOD! 🙂 Tomorrow morning, we return to the airport and are shuttled into St. George just in time for a yummy lunch.

Stampin' Up! has so much fun planned for us and I just cannot wait.

One of the things we do is a Card Swap….we each make 120 identical cards and trade them so that we come home with 120 different cards.

Here's the card I'm bringing…I'm so thankful to my husband for all his help…he really did do a lot on this card and I'm really proud of how well he did!

He is a super cool husband who doesn't mind Big Shot-ing; punching, glueing, adding brads, adding ribbon, etc. I should really get him his own personalized stamp to do the back with! 🙂STAMPS: Santa's List w#131808/ c#131811; Festive Flurry w#131778/ c#131781
