First Christmas Card

Good afternoon. My good friend MaryR from StampinAddicts created a wonderful card and of course I had to case it. I used Rich Razzleberry and Always Artichoke for my card. The Ribbon is Rich Razzleberry dotted ribbon.

Thankful banner

Good afternoon. Here is the full picture again and the supplies. The base cardstock and the letters are Soft Suede. The Designer paper is Autumn Traditions. Various brads, buttons, and ribbons were used. I think you can figure those out from the picture. Enjoy!

Last two pages

Good morning. Here are the last two pages from the Thankful Banner. I hope you have had fun putting your banner together. Let me know if you had any problems. I have 2 kits left for purchase. They are $20 if picked up, $24.95 for priority mailing. I will post the full picture and supply list tomorrow. Enjoy!

Two more pages

Good morning. Here are the next two pages for the Thankful banner. If you have any questions putting your kit together, please let me know. I have several kits left, call to request yours. Enjoy!

Next two pages

Good morning. Here are the next two pages of the Thankful banner. I still have 6 kits available for purchase. Call or email if you would like one. I am working on the Christmas one and you can RSVP your seat in class now. Enjoy!

First Two Pages

Good morning. Here is a close up of the first two pages of the Thankful Banner. Kits should be arriving by Thursday so you will be ready to assemble. I will post the supply list on Thursday with the last two letters. Enjoy!

Thanksgiving Banner

Good morning. Between some of my ladies heading to Florida for their winter homes and High School sports I only had my downline Celia at the Banner class yesterday. We caught up on so many unfinished projects and began creating the Christmas Banner. Soooo because of the lack of attendance I have 8 kits available. The kits are $24.95 including priority shipping. IF you live close by the cost would be $20.00. Call or email me at dixiefinn@neo.rr.com to place your order.

Today's picture is the whole banner. I will be posting 2 pages at a time for the next few days so you have an example to help you finish your kit. Enjoy!

My first MDS card

Good morning. I just love our new "My Digital Studio". I've finished my certification program and one of the requirements was to create and print a project. Mine is this Halloween card. Some of the greatest uses is you can create calendars or albums and have them finished and professionally printed and bound. A fantastic gift that will be so personal.

I also use it to "create" my projects first to see how the finished project looks before I cut into my cardstock and Designer Paper. Saves a lot of wasted time and product.

Now for some exciting news. Between now and November 30, 2009 host a workshop of at least $400 and get My Digital Studio for 50 percent off the retail price (retail price: $79.95; promotional price: $39.97) when you use your free hostess dollars!

AND I will be having a FREE MDS beginners class sometime in December. You get MDS for half price with your workshop and a free class on how to use it. How fantastic is that!

Enjoy!

Colorful flowers

Good morning. I wanted to share a little color this dreary day. I put my Christmas Cactus on the deck all summer and when I bring it back in in September it usually rewards me with wonderful color a month later. Enjoy!

October Blocks

Good evening. I love this set of October blocks. I used the On Board Lots of Letters (109182) and retired Halloween DSP. I had a friend cut the blocks the same size as the letters. I used Basic Black and Pumpkin Pie reinkers to color the blocks. These are so cute and don't take up storage space. Call or email to order your supplies. Enjoy!

Turkey Treat Cup

Good morning. Don't you just love this time of year. Halloween is my favorite, not for the candy or trick or treating, but for the change in leaves and the chill in the air here in Northern Ohio. And I love Stampin'Up! stamps for Halloween. My next favorite is Thanksgiving and the project I have to share today is a case from Connie Collins at Constantly Stamping. I love our new treat cups (12 for $2.95, item number 116802) and you can see how creative you can be. These would be cute for place holders at your Thanksgiving dinner. Call or email today for the supply list and to place your order. Beginning next week I will have the full supply lists following each project. Enjoy!

Halloween triple treat

Good morning. This little treat packet is from CreationsbyPatti. She is such a talented stamper. My treat cups are empty because we used all the candy in the treat boxes I showed you earlier. How cute would this be filled with 3 different colors of M&M's or candy corn. For instructions and to place your order call or email today, or better yet click the order now button on the side of this post. Enjoy!

Halloween slider

Good morning. Here is the last Halloween swap card I have to share. It uses the slider technique. I hope you have enjoyed these swaps. If you would like to order the supplies to make these cards call or email me. Enjoy!

More Pumpkins

Good morning. Cold here in northern Ohio. Where is our fall? Today's swap card was made by Pamela Clarke. I love the dimension. Sorry about the poor picture quality, my camera reacts to too much white I guess. Call or email for your list of supplies and to place your order. Enjoy!

Thankful Banner

Good afternoon. Here is a sneak peek of the Thankful banner that will be a class on Saturday, October 24th. The top banner is from last year and has retired paper. The one we will be making is the bottom one. Class fee is $20 and the banner is also available as a kit for $24.95 which includes priority shipping. You will get everything in the kit to complete the project. Pictures will be posted of close-ups of each page so you will easily be able to complete it. Let me know ASAP so I have enough Designer paper to complete each kit. Enjoy!

Projects in the works

Good evening. Sorry for the lack of posts. I have a lot of projects in various stages of completion. I'll get them all finished on the weekend. Then I should have posts for the next several weeks. Thank you for your continued following of my blog. New and improved things to come.

New look to the blog

How do you like the clean look of the blog? I felt I was putting so much information on the sides and it was getting lost in the background design. I will have some swap cards to share during the next few days from my wonderful StampinAddicts friends. Also, check out the MDS (My Digital Studio) blog hop StampinAddicts is sponsoring, fabulous ideas. I've begun to play with it and will have projects to show you later.
