February Stamp Club

We had our Stamp club get together on Friday. Our challenge was to make a card using punches. The ladies really hit this one outta the park. I hope you enjoy all their beautiful creations. 
Michele made this gumball machine card. How clever and she said she used up a bunch if scraps. 
Terri made this one with the banner punch and the new water color paper stack from Stampin Up! Beautiful.
Kim created this adorable Mickey card. It is just circles but so easily identifiable. I always seem to need a kids birthday card. 
How current is this one. Jene and her granddaughter have a little joke with this one. The detail on this is perfect. 
Had to show the inside sentiment. 
We all fell in love with the composition and color scheme of Chris's card. It is so bright and feminine. We all love a little bling on our cards, am I right?
Cindy is an amazing crafter. She whipped this one out a few hours before we were to meet.  She wasn't going to bring a card and bam here it is. It uses the new tag punch from Stamping Up!
Monica was our hostess and the punch challenge was her idea. I enjoy having to create under certain perameters. It gets me to use my supplies and stretch my imagination. Monica's mermaid is too cute. She hand drew each face and free hand cut the flippers. Everything else is a punch. 
Here is my final product. I had several prototypes and this is what happened. I like how it turned out. I was able to use my new fringe scissors. It is fun, and time appropriate with March right around the corner. 
I had fun learning how to make these coffee filter roses. There is an easy to follow tutorial on YouTube and they go pretty fast. 

We'll that is all for now. Check back from time to time to see what is new. Cheers!

My valentine wreath 2014.

I can't remember if I have posted a picture of my wreath yet. I am going to change over to St Patricks day so I wanted to share my wreath before it changes. I kept it pretty simple.  Whimsy is what I call it. 

My dollar tree finds.

Class Calandar and Camille's valentines for class.

I am in charge of the class calandar since our teacher is a man. I recruited 2 students to help me every month. This is our latest decor.  


I found these hearts on Pinterest so easy and so cute. 
We didn't like the numbers color but they were all he had. 
These are what Camille passed out to her friends for Valentines day. 
We glittered the pins and added stickers and hearts for the toppers. Two smarties fit in the cello bags.  We used fucia and red glitter. 
My constant companion and lap warmer Ginger.
