Santa Clara Scrapbook Expo Recap

Guess who was at the Scrapbook Expo in Santa Clara this past weekend????? ME!!!!!

I was so excited to partner with fellow consultant Kristina Baldwin to do this show! Let me tell you all about it!

Thursday we spent the day setting up and getting our booth to look like this:

Then we got to work!
Myself, Kristina, Deanna and Denise (Not pictured: Deb)

We had a fabulous time meeting new faces, seeing friends from all over, doing make & takes with hundreds and serving our fabulous customers!

I LOVED being at Expo this weekend, and especially enjoyed meeting new friends who live near me! I look forward to seeing my Expo friends SOON!

Check out the awesome make & take that Kristina designed! I love the 3- color stamping that we did using sponge daubers. The paper fundamentals, dots and sparkles and shimmer trim allowed each person to make theirs unique.

I created a little gift bag with Artiste to show how you could attach the tag to a gift bag :)

And then I created this card to show how you could even put a tag on a card.

Blossom Paper Pack
Zoe Paper Pack

~~ Holiday Blog Hop ~~

Welcome to the Paper Secrets Holiday Blog Hop. I made a couple of things to share with you today. I created this lovely paper tree by punching a LOT of 1 1/4" circles of Mistletoe Paper, then used pearl floral pins to secure them in rows to a styrofoam cone. As I neared the top, I had to use some adhesive so that they did not flare out, but sit in the cone shape. At the top, I stamped 3 stars and adhered them to the top of the cone. Supplies: Styrofoam cone Pearl Floral Pins CTMH Mistletoe level 2 paper CTMH Mistletoe Creative Basics paper D1320 Shining Star Stamps I created a second paper tree using instructions from Tracey Mason .

April Showers Blog Hop

Thanks for joining me for another weekend of Blog Hoppin Fun! If you have come here from Tina's Blog , you are on the right path! Keep on hoppin until the end :) April Showers is our theme, and I went with the "shower" theme and made baby cards for baby showers! I am addicted to making these stacked present cards lately! I first saw one that my friend Jayma made, who found it on Vicki's blog. Recently, I saw a couple cute ones on Haley's blog too. I cut my paper strips at 1.25 tall x 3, 2.25 and 1.5 long. Add a ribbon down the center, or just a bow on top and you're set! I used the Sweet Baby stamp set and Polka Dot Alphabet for my sentiments. Now I'm all set for the next baby shower..... (though I don't know any preggos right now). This design is also great for Birthday Cards too!!!! I made two each of these cards and stamped Birthday sentiments on them :) Supplies: BOY: Miracle Level 2 Sweet Baby...
