What a Weekend!

                                         
Well I don't know about you but my weekend was full of fun and love and family. First I want to tell you how much fun Saturday was. We had my youngest daughters baby shower. My oldest daughter Melissa and my daughter in law Roslyn put this on.Boy are they good! They did the decorations, planning, and all the work that went into this. I know it was not an easy task. But they pulled it off well. Here are a few pictures.



 







My daughter Melissa is the one who did the amazing diaper cakes. The first one is on the table, it is the monkey and the palm tree. The other diaper cake is the duck on the Motorcycle by the cupcakes.
One of the photos is my mom, Melissa, Catlyn and myself the other is my three wonderful daughters. Melissa, Roslyn, Catlyn and then of coarse my Grandson Weston. Thank you all who came it truly was a wonderful time.

Next I have a fun card for you I made tonight. One of my husbands co-workers has a B-Day tomorrow. She is the age of my oldest daughter so my husband looks at her like one of his own. Her name is also Melissa. So I found this gift cards video on youtube. It is by Christina..... here is her video name is what I guess what you would call it or here channel name? It is ckaplan64 If you go to it you should be able to find this. It was not extremely easy but was not all that hard either. It is a sliding gift card holder.


I used Pool Party card stock, Apothecary stamp set and the DPS from the SAB mini. I also cut the stamped image and paper with the Labels Framlets Die!
Let me just tell you how much I love those dies! Then I water colored with a blender pen and some ink.
I also wanted to remind you all about SALE-A-BRATION. It is so wonderful to receive free items.  With a $50.00 order you can get a stamp set or paper.....and so on for free! How can you go wrong.
Well it is late so I am off to bed but I hope I have inspired you to find some time to create!

Scented Embossing Powder

Can I tell you all how much I love the scented embossing powder! The scents are strong when you smell them in the jar but once you emboss with them the smell is just like it should be. I used the vanilla embossing powder on this card. I have had the card for a couple of weeks and the scent lasts! I am sold with them.
I used the Mouthwatering stamp set in the new Occasions Mini. I used makers on the ice cream cones and the Versamaker that we so often forget about. I used that on the ice cream part then poured the embossing powder over it and heat set it. It smells terrific. Every time I walk by the card I smell it. OK, are you sold yet?
Another favorite product on this card is the Sweet Shop DSP! How much fun it is! I love it! I know probably way to many exclamation points but I am really excited about this new mini and the wonderful products in there.

Products used:
Mouthwatering Stamp Set $16.95 clear mount
Sweet Shop DSP $12.95
Card stock: Pool Party, Wisteria Wonder, Whisper White
Pool Party Seam Binding
Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details $2.50
Versamarker $3.25

If you want to make this card it is one we will be making at my Feb. Basic Card Class on the 20th @ 6:00pm Hope to see you there.
Please remember to RSVP

Sale-A-Bration time is here! 

Don't forget to book your workshops or Private Card Class. This is the best time for you as a hostess. Get a few friends together and we will have some fun.
I hope I have inspired you to be creative today
