Mojo Monday # 92

Hello my friends,

Well, we are on the home stretch...only 1 more day of school!! My girls and I can't wait... we are so looking forward to the summer. 

It's been very hot and humid here this week, so it's a great time to play downstairs in my studio with some new products from the upcoming catalogue. I have to let you in on a secret......are you ready.........my new catalogues arrived yesterday!!! I will be having a Catalogue Open house and sale, watch for more details to follow this week.

I had some time to play around with this week's Mojo Monday sketch. As soon as I saw this sketch, I knew that I wanted to use Circle Circus stamp set. This set is so fun and wild!!

 

Recipe - Whisper White, and Rich Razzleberry card stock, Razzleberry Lemonade D.S.P, Circle Circus and On Your Birthday stamp set, Rich Razzleberry ribbon, Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Dusty Durango and Rich Razzleberry ink.

Have a wonderful day!!

Wedding Invitations

Hello,

It's been a busy day here. I spent most of the day working on some card kits, cleaning up my stamp area, laundry, re-arranging my shelves(re-organizing bins) and hanging out with my family. I can't believe that I go back to work tomorrow, and I'm not looking forward to making lunches again.

Last week at Regionals, my good friend Corinne Somerville did a WOW presentation. She wow the crowd with her wedding invitation and table favours. Her daughter is getting married in less then 7 weeks and she made their invitations. She shows us a variety of different styles. Here is one of the wedding invitations.

 

The inside of the invitation.

 

Look at the pocket she made to hold the Response Card and Gift Registry card. Way to cute!!

 

Are you thinking you might want to make your wedding invitations but don't know where to start. Then let me be your creative coach and show you a variety of different styles, colours and table favours to help you celebrate your special day!! Email me at ca.granger@sympatico.ca to set up an appointment and I look forward to assisting you with your special day!!!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Barnyard Tails

Good Morning,

I hope you had a great week and are looking forward to relaxing this weekend. This is the first weekend that we don't have hockey. Boy does it feel weird not having to go to the rink but it also feels good just hanging out at home.

I wanted to share with you some Wow Presentation from Regionals. We were very lucky to have 4 local demonstrator's share their talent with us on stage. Heather Summers show us her amazing creations with SU punches. Did you ever think that you could make cute farm animal with your punches? Well, you can and wait to you see them!!

I think the best part of these cards were the back of it, seeing those cute tails...aah so cute!!

 

Of course, you need a cute holder for all your cards...well when you have farm animals you need a barn.

 

I think this is one project that I need to make. What a great idea to give for a birthday gift. Watch for some cute animal creations coming your way soon. Maybe it might be a class idea!!

Remember you have only have 10 more days to earn a FREE Sale-a-Bration stamp set by either placing a $60 order ( online here, then click shop now or by emailing me), hosting a workshop or even joining as a demonstrator. I would love to have you join my team. If you have any questions about any of them these offers, please contact me at ca.granger@sympatico.ca.

Enjoy your day!!

London SU Regionals

I had so much fun yesterday with all my fellow demonstrator's at Stampin' Up! Regionals in London. You walk away from the event full of life and ready to take on new and exciting projects.

I wanted to share some of the projects that Linda, Shannon and Lori demonstrated for us . They work at the head office in Salt Lake City, Utah and they flew into London to spend the day with us!! Man, I wish I had their job...how fun would that to be. 

Here is a cute scrapbook page that Shannon demonstrated using the new Circle Scissor Plus cutter. Wow, this new circle cutter is amazing!!!

   

Lori showed us how to make a shaker card using glitter. She combined all the glitter colours to make one rainbow mixture. This was one of her favourite sets " Just Jawing"

 

Linda showed us how to use the Big Shot to make mini albums. She used the Scallop die to create this cute album about her trip to Hawaii!!

   

As you can see all the presentations were amazing!! As I said before " I think it would be amazing to have their job!!!" They are really living the dream of sharing what we all love to do and that is Stamping!! Watch for more pictures over the next week.

Enjoy the rest of your evening,

Anne
