I'm so excited about this project!! We're having a 3-D Shoebox Swap at my Team Meeting this Friday . I made it using coasters, the Sale-A-Bration DSP and a couple of post it items. The little flowers are made with the Boho Blossoms Punch and Rhinestone brads...gotta add the blings :)

Kids Chore Chart


Pin It


I wanted to get my boys to get into the habit of doing stuff around the house and saw a Chore Chart on Pinterest. It took me about a month to a gather my ideas and get the materials. It was hard to find these wooden laundry clips! Ran over town and then I found it at Target...of all the places, haha! I taped the paper down onto a piece of chipboard and then whole punched with the Crop-A-Dile to put on the ribbon hanger. I cut the boys names out with the Naturally Serif Alphabet Sizzlits and the Big Shot Machine.

Once the boys does one of the chores, they just move the clip to the bottom of the board or turn it around to show the blank side. I just started this on Tuesday and it is working really well, YAY!!! The house has been picked up and they are learning to be more responsible. Still working on the Potty Training for my almost 3 year old...hope this helps move that along.



Then, for the BEST part...a Reward Coupon! I used My Digital Studio to create these tags that I could easily trim down with a Paper Cutter and whole punch to put a ribbon in it. Tell me what you think? I'd love any suggestions on more Rewards as well :) Have a great Stamping weekend!

Hostess Clubs

Hi Stampers,

This year, my goal is to help you get the big item products through a Hostess Club. It is basically a Layaway Plan. Your monthly payment will be the total product price divided by the amount of people that join the club. If there are 4 people, you'll be committed to pay that amount for 4 months, 5 people for 5 months. I'll be rotating it randomly each month to see who will get that product that month PLUS the Hostess rewards of at least $25 in free products. During your month, you are welcome to collect outside orders and/or order more products to get more hostess credit. Each club basically totals in $150 worth of products, so if you have a certain item already from the list, you are welcome to pick any other item for that same amount. 

I'll start a list for the items below and will open the Hostess Club when we have a minimum of 4 people interested. For Example: $175/4=$43.75 or $175/5=$35  Let me know which one(s) you'd like to join:

Can you tell that I just LOVE the new Labels Framelits??? LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! It's super duper neat!

Labels Collection Framelits Dies
Besides it giving you so many sizes to choose from so that we can mat as many layers possible, it can cut through two card stocks. Seriously, it doesn't look like it would, but it does. So I decided to make the base card in that shape and it worked perfectly, you can't even mess it up, haha! All of these projects were made using many products from the Occasions Mini Catalog and the FREE Sale-a-bration items. I had so much fun! Ok, I just had to get that off my chest, now onto the Stamp-A-Stack class yesterday. 

All my stampers made 2 each of the 4 cards above...it was quite intense, LOL!  There were lots of stamping, eating and laughter...my perfect cup of tea :) Below is a picture of the table waiting for my stampers...

My Little Valentine


Here's my little Valentine! I made him and his classmates a Valentine puzzle, stamped and tape a little treat. I also gave him the little cute M&M treat that I got from my swap last night. He got me a cute little Sock Monkey holding a Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, my favorite. Of course I forgot to take a picture of it and now the candies are all gone, haha!
