I've drawn the names for the FREE product give-aways from last week's BLOG SPECIAL while I was away in San Antonio at Leadership. And....CONGRATS TO JANET L.!!! Janet won BOTH of the drawings...great mojo, Janet!!! I'll be sending you $50+ in FREE GOODIES!!!!
How about a project?? We got a TON of goodies from Leadership! Stamp sets, Designer Paper, accessories...wow! And we also got a slew of make-n-takes. I got there late due to my flight getting in later in the afternoon, so Michelle (my travel buddy and roommate) and I grabbed a seat and made the Ronald McDonald House Charities card. We got to make two - one to keep and one to donate to the charity. I love this idea! This is also a delightful card:
I believe there are NINE projects...and you got it...I have 8 more to make!! I did, however, get the Regional projects made Saturday morning. I'll be sharing those in the next couple of days.
The project today features the Mixed Bunch stamp set and Blossom Punch - both from the Occasions Mini Catalog. It was killing me to wait for this stamp set - we knew we were getting it FREE at Leadership, so I held off and didn't order it. Now it's in my hot little hands!!!
Want to know how I made the rick-rack (red cardstock)? Take a strip of cardstock and punch along one edge using the Scalloped Edge Border Punch. Then, flip it over and punch the other straight side, but offset the scallops. I KNOW! Super easy!!!
To add texture to the flower, we snipped up into each notch giving it ruffled petals. The cut-out is from the Blossom Builders Designer Printed Kit. Honestly...I hadn't even looked at this in the Occasions Mini Catalog. It's awesome!! SO many flowers that are all die-cut and ready to use. NO adhesive on the back, either, so they are easier to pop up and layer.
I'll be sharing some San Antonio pictures soon, too. What a fun city!!
Have a blessed Thursday and I hope to see you soon!
