Think Spring!!

I am SO ready for spring I can hardly stand it.  We were a little spoiled last week with warmer weather and no snow...well not today and yesterday.  Now we have snow and ice mixture...yuck!  So I've been busy making spring items to make it feel like spring is near.  This item I made for a recent workshop...it no longer has the chocolate in it..hehe!

This is made using the new Petal Cone Bigz L Die from the Occasions Mini Catalog and it is SO versatile...I just love it!  I am making birthday invites for my daughter's birthday and it will be an ice cream cone!  I'll post when I am finished with them. 

Only 8 days left of Sale-A-Bration so remember to take advantage of receiving a free item from the Sale-A-Bration catalog when you place a $50 order...you can do it at my online store at www.lakeshorestamping.stampinup.net. 

Thanks for stopping by and THINK SPRING!!!

Hostess Gift

I've been busy with workshops for customers over the last month.  I love workshops as I always get to know my hostess better as I am invited into her home and I love meeting new people.  This is a great time to have a workshop as Sale-A-Bration is in full swing. 

As a thank you to my hostesses, I always make them a little something for having me in their home to have a workshop.  This is the hostess gift I've been giving this last month.

This close up shows the shimmer paint that I misted onto the front of the card holder. Inside the card holder were these two 3x3 cards and mini envelopes too!

This Nature Walk and You're A Gem stamp sets have been a favorite recently.  The Nature Walk stamp set is just getting me ready for spring.  I am SO ready for it to be here and it looks like this week it will get into the high 40's...a heat wave for Michigan in March!  I am looking forward to seeing flowers and birds around in the yard. 

HERE is a list of supplies used to create this cute hostess gift.  If you are interested in getting this tutorial for FREE, place a product order of $25 from me and I will send you the instructions for this card holder.  You can place the order through my online store or email me with your order.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Get Well Soon

My hostess from Tuesday night's workshop saw this soup pouch similar to this of mine and asked that we make it at her workshop.  I redesigned the one I had with more current SU! product and little did I know I would be needing it the next day as I came down with influenza the next day.  UGH!  I've never had this before and I didn't get my flu shot this year but I WILL be next year...this is just awful!  It came on really quick as I didn't get achy until on my drive home from her workshop that night.  So needless to say...this no longer has a soup packet in it.  I used it yesterday!

You can't tell in the picture but the Very Vanilla piece which is embossed with the Vintage Wallpaper folder has a shimmer to it.  I used Champagne Mist shimmer paint along with rubbing alcohol in a bottle and sprayed it.  I LOVE this look!  The birds are also outlined with shimmer paint and these birds come from my new favorite stamp set "Clearly for You" from the Occasions Mini along with the background on the banner.  The Just 4 You came from the Hodgepodge Happiness set which you can get free when you place a $50 now through March 31st.  Go HERE if you'd like to take advantage of Sale-A-Bration's freebies by placing a $50 order or email me today!

Well, back to bed for me.  I hope I kick it soon as it was to be family time this weekend! 

P.S. Thanks to Julie Marshall for giving me the Stylish Blog Award.  When I get feeling better I will try to answer all of the questions.
