My favorite pink Christmas Card & How to get what you really want for Christmas!

Todays' PINK and fabulous card is from the Greeting Card Kids stamp set (120633) you might want to put this on your wishlist. I used Regal Rose card stock and ink and the Snowflake embossing folder. I can't believe I forgot how very cool Regal Rose card stock and ink was.....so sorry but my new favorite is, yes, you guessed it, REGAL ROSE. Lucky for you, I only had 4 sheets of it or I'm sure the next 3 cards I post would be REGAL ROSE! I just love this card, even if I did make it!
Onward and forward....Some pink princess tips on how to get only what you want for Christmas.

Okay, I always get what I want for Christmas. Sometimes, I just make up my want list and email it to all my friends and family. I tell them if you don't want to give me a gift, but know someone who would, feel free to pass my list on to that person! I will say that when you send out a Christmas list in April, or say even June, that they laughed at me, so now I have scaled back a bit!

I wait until the day after Halloween. Then the trick is to resend it every few days. Finally, (this is especially true with my hubby) they will get the message that if it is not on the list, you might not want a gift that is not listed. I even put that cheery info at the top of my list. I usually say, "if it isn't on this list, then I don't want it and will return it or sell it on ebay".
So lets get started on your list! Click on the side bar, browse the current catalog and the holiday mini catalog! If you would like a catalog please email me and I will send you a free copy! Fill in your wish list, and send it to your selected loved ones and friends. Do not be afraid to give a copy to your children to give to your hubby, mom, sister, or brother. Seriously, this works, I have even tied it around the cats collar. I started this before I joined the stampin' up sisterhood, and one year my hubby was able to get me a level 2 hostess set that I really wanted. I never asked him how he worked out that deal with my demonstrator, I just said thank you very much and off to stamp I went.

Hoping you get what you want,
Teresa

I just had to do "it"!

Tonight was the Punch art class, and if you measure fun in the amount of mess that was made tonight, well let's just say we had a BLAST! After everyone left, I started to clean up my stamp room, and then that's when it happened, everything spiraled out of control when I saw "it". There "it" was....my Elegant Lines embossing folder, just lonely and laying on the table. Well, I tried to ignore it, really I did! Now, just as there began to be more evidence that underneath all that scrap paper and pile of punches, there really was a table under there, "it" was now staring at me. Okay, I know I needed to get ready for bed, but I just couldn't....I had to stamp just one card with that folder. I promise my next post will not be of the Elegant Lines embossing folder!

I stamped all afternoon with my friend Arlene! She was making some really cute card sets for Christmas gifts for her co-workers. I was getting ready for my Holiday Stamp a Stack on Thursday night and for my punch art class Tuesday night. I can't wait to the punch art class, it is always so much fun. Tomorrow we'll be making critters with the different size circle punches that SU has available for your purchasing pleasure! We'll make kids, snowmen, santa, elves, witch, bat and Dracula. I can't share pictures yet, I don't want to spoil the surprise for the Punch Club Members, check back on Wed. to see pictures of what we made. I can share the pictures of the Stamp a Stack Chrisatmas cards we'll be making On Thursday night. There are still spaces available for this class, so if you would like to join us and make these cards please RSVP by Wed, 10/13 @ 5 PM.




Happy Stampin'

A few of my favorite things!


I just love the Elegant Soiree designer paper and the Elegant lines embossing folder. I just don't think a day goes by that I don't use one of these products. They are so fabulous, if you don't have these, you should say this out loud: "Self, why don't I have these?" Listen close because, I'm sure your "self" will say, "I'm not sure, I told you to order it a long time ago! Every time I use these my "self" asks me. "Why haven't you bought us that Always Elegant Stamp Set?" I'm thinking "self" needs to get a job to we can afford all these goodies. This card uses the fabulous Elegant Soiree paper, (117163), embossing folder (119277), soft suede card stock(115318), very vanilla card stock(101650), and basic pearls(119247).

I'm so glad last week is over!



I haven't posted anything in a whole week. That means I haven't had time to stamp much, and that I'm not happy. Those of you who attend my classes and clubs know that I stamp everyday, whether I need to or not! I did stamp Monday night, I had to make my swaps for my monthly demonstrator event. The demonstrators in my group all get together once a month, hang out, make cards and share. This is an amazing event and I always look forward
seeing everybody and what they have done over the last month. Here are a few of the cards from our swap.
Happy Stamping!
