And the Winners are...

Liz C and Christine C!!!  Congrats ladies; you each won one of the reusable Stampin' Up! bags, a Stampin' Up! ruler and pen from my trip to Convention this past summer.  Thanks to everyone who placed orders in the month of September.  Thanks to Gavin for picking the names out of the dish!  Maybe I will have another contest for the month of October.
Still having computer problems so can't post any pictures again tonight.  Will try again tomorrow.

Finally...

Okay, so my laptop still is sick but I took some pictures of our make 'n takes we did at Regionals so I can share those with you.  Please hope that I can get the virus off my laptop and that I won't lose anything from it like family pictures, card pictures and other information!

 This card is a 4"x4" card and it used Cajun Craze, Early Espresso, and Whisper White cardstock.  The stamp set is Gratitude and this is the set we received at Regionals.  I like how we added a half-back pearl to the centre.

This second cards uses the same stamp set but this time uses Old Olive and Whisper White cardstock.  We used 5/8" grosgrain ribbon tied around the card and I added some more pearls to it.  You can click on the card to see it larger. 
I will be back tomorrow with a great promotion and the winner of the reusable shopping bags.

Laptop Problems

I hope to be back later tonight with more pictures from the Regional however my  laptop has a virus that arrived yesterday and all my pictures are on the computer.  We think we can fix it tonight but if not, I will have something to share tomorrow.

Fun at the Hamilton Regional

Yesterday I had lots of fun at Stampin' Up!'s Hamilton Regional.  We saw lots of demonstrations, heard some great advice, and got to stamp!  What more could you want to do with a Saturday?
I just have a couple of pictures to share today but I will have more to share everyday this week.

 First of all, I was so excited and happy to be able to get my picture taken with Shelli Gardner, CEO and Co-founder of Stampin' Up!  She is such a beautiful person and is so kind and generous.

 I was also very happy to have Alycia be able to join me for her first big Stampin' Up! event.  We had a great time together.

Lastly, this is a card from the samples boards at the Regional.  All attendants received the Gratitude stamp set from the Holiday Mini.  I will have lots more cards to share that use this set.

 

Shoebox Swap

Today I am headed to Hamilton to attend Stampin' Up!'s regional event on Saturday.  I am super excited to go and can't wait to see fun, new ideas.
Tonight, I am attending a Pre-Regional event hosted by Heather Summers.  It is sure to be loads of fun as well and I will share pictures of both events when I get back.
I am participating in a shoebox swap and this is the card I made for it.

This card uses the new dsp from the Holiday Mini.  I used the ribbon border punch for the middle Cherry Cobbler piece and the tree is from Paisley Prints.  I hope you like it.

Lots of Fun!

Cute Halloween Treat

Things have been crazy around here.  I am going to Stampin' Up!'s Regional event this Saturday in Hamilton and I am attending a fun event on Friday night.  I have to prepare some swap cards and a card for a shoebox swap.  I have also been putting the finishing touches on the flyer for my upcoming stamp camp which will be sent out tomorrow but I found something to share with you tonight.

These treat boxes are made from the Candy wrapper die in the Holiday Mini.  I don't have this die yet but maybe soon!  These were made by the Stampin' Up! artists.  I hope you like them.
