Oops, I did it again....

Hello friend.

Yesterday I thought I was doing so well.  Even though I'm just now mailing my November Hostess Club cards (sorry ladies) I was happy to have stamped a simple December Hostess Club card:

Can you guess what I did wrong?  (Well, normally this wouldn't be "wrong", but it isn't good for a Hostess Club Card.)  The striped "Bridesmaid" card stock is discontinued!  How did I miss the fact that it is not in our current catalog?  Errgghh!  Well, substitute another card stock, and it will still be a pretty card....  Add to that the fact that there is a quality control issue with the Ornament punch, and I suppose this was NOT a good card to send now. 

Back to the drawing board to figure out what this month's card really will be!

Hey, remember me?

Hello friend!

Well, either you are back from Black Friday shopping, or (like me) you never left your house… but here is a wonderful opportunity for you to get great deals on Stampin’ Up’s products, at up to 50% off!  Go to my web page:  www.wendy.stampinup.net and click on the “ONLINE SPECTACULAR” link.  You’ll find great discounts on products and our Demonstrator Starter Kit.  

There are all kinds of great deals, including 50% off on our fabrics!  I’m heading there now… but first I must show you this card.  A while back I posted a card I copied from my upline, Christine Vidourek.  At the time I could not find her original.  This morning I cleared about 500 old e-mails out of my in-box, and look what I found!

Since I was relying on memory when I made my card they are rather different, but each great in their own way.  Maybe it is better to copy without the original, so that you can make it your own!

Halloween.... finally!

Hello friend!

In August, I started this wall quilt.  Plenty of time to finish before Halloween, right?  (wrong)  I just got it finished last night, in time for it to hang all of about 3 hours on Halloween.  Oh well, guess I'll have it for next year!

(size: 42 inches X 15 inches)

The letters and prairie points were all cut with the Big Shot.  If you look closely,  you can see the spider (made of beads) in the right- hand corner, and the spider web quilting--which was inspired by our Spider Web Embossing Folder for the Big Shot.  I also added beads on the web, so as you walk past you see the light glinting off the web. 

Now, on to November and December stuff!  I have an idea in my head for a turkey quilt block with the Big Shot.  Actually, I'm thinking it might be a fun "first" block to teach... care to come over and sew?  What I should just do is look at my calendar and set a date.... and get the idea out of my head and onto fabric!  :)
