P.S Thank you  all so much for your  emails  and comments  yesterday RE:  the accident . Jessie  drove yesterday  for the 1st time  since the accident  to a friends house  she was  not wanting  to  at 1st  which is understandable  But in the end  she  did  and I am so proud of her .

Until later.. Happy Stampin!

Dawn's update ..

Hi Stampers :

Most of you  already know what has been going on  if  you follow me on Facebook .

 I posted  this past Wednesday morning on Face book  that my Daughter was  in a  what we thought  was a 5  car accident  on her way  to school driving my Grand prix  But it  turns out  it was a 6 car accident . The 1st driver  drove off .

 She is  fine Praising God  for that . 

We  found out ( yesterday )  Friday that my  car is  totalled . I have  since  went  and  got  everything out of my car and  got the police report  and also  called and set up a  court date  for Jess  since she was the last car in  this 6 car accident  she was  the one that got a ticket .

  The  officer  told us  to go to court to fight the ticket so we are just waiting now  for  everything to fall in place as of  right now .

The accident  started  with  the 1st car  that just stopped in the middle of the road  for no apparent reason  at all  and well from there  5  cars  crashed .

 Jessie  was  seriously 1 min  from her school  and of  course I  have thoughts  running though my mind  "If only  she ate  her breakfast a little  slower that morning  ect...  But  I know what  is done ... is done , But  I guess thinking like that is only human nature ..

I am sorry  if you have emailed  me over this last week and have not heard back from me   I have not been  on my  computer  much and or stamping since all this happened .

    My goal today is  to get into my stamping room to have some fun & make a new video for you this up coming week .

Here is  the  Truck that is on the tow  truck with our  car in the photo above. This  truck belongs  to  the family of 2 of the  students  that goes to Jessie's school  also  and  are friends  with Jessie.  They were  the 4th  vehicle in this accident and I wanted to show  you  their truck . In total there were 2 trucks /2 cars/ jeep / and our car  in this accident .

 When I arrived  to the sceen of the accident  I noticed the Sunroof on my car was opened  and thought  that was  weird since it was raining out that morning  and  thought~ I wonder why Jessie had  the  sunroof opend  BUT I  soon  found out  that she didn't  have  it opened  it was  opened  from when  both air bags  deployed  and the  pressure  pushed  it open 

 I appreciate all your  thoughts and prayers  for my  Jessie  and  my family  as  we  deal with situation  at this time .

We are all Praising  God that Jessie and everyone  in the accident  are  fine!

God is So AWESOME!!!

Patterned pines ...

Hi Stampers :

Happy Friday !

 I used Patterned  pines stamp set  Hostess  level 1 from Holiday mini for my card  today and  for  some reason  it looks like  denim to me.

  I used the  direct  to paper  technique  for the base card  which is  Bordering Blue card stock #102630  with Bordering  blue  classic ink #102265 .

 I  used the  Bordering blue clasic ink #102265 for my main images and then  took the  Night of Navy marker #100069 to highlighted  the  designs  inside  my  trees.. I did a video a couple months ago on this type of technique  which you  can view HERE

I also used  Brushed Silver card stock #100712  and Night  of navy card stock #100867 with Silver brads #104336.

 Have a  Fabulous Friday .

Until later.. Happy Stampin!

Gold Patterned Pines ....

Hi Stampers :

 I found  something  out  yesterday  when I was making this card .

 If  you take a look at  the  jumbo snowflake  punch #116628 on my card  I used the snowflake  from the Patterned pines stamp set ~ This snowflake  image fits inside the  snowflake punch pretty good . What a nice surprise  that was :)

I also attached a upclose photo of it so you  can see it alittle  better ..

I used the Brushed gold card  stock #102935 and  gold embossing powder  # 109129  for my card today  and all images are  from the Patterned pines  stamp set which is a Hostess  Level 1  item in the Hoilday mini ..  This set is  so cute  and I had lots of  fun  making this card :)

You can't tell  from the photo But I also sponged the edges of the Very Vanilla card stock # 101650   with Gold Encore ink # 101017

I also used the Top note bigz die #113463 and  the  Elastic cord  in gold #109867 from the holiday mini  also . In the center of my snowflake punch I used a Jumbo 5/16" brad # 112534 .

 Have a Fabulous Wednesday  friends .

P.S For Tomorrows video ~I will be showing you my finished goodies  I made with My Digital Studio  so far ...

Until later.. Happy Stampin!

Saturday Night Stampers club ...

Hi Stampers :

This past Saturday night was my  Stampers club night 5 of my  club girls  couldn't make  it that night  ( Philly , Laurie , Kelsey , Kristen & Jenny )   But there was 7 of us  there and  we  still had tons of fun making 3 projects instead of the  usual 2 .

Laura  brought  this super cute  spider to our club meeting ( So stinkin cute )  which is a peppermint patty  in between the  (2) scallop circle punches # 109043  The legs are using the photo corner punch #109042 .

After I seen  this  adorable spider I got to thinking  It would be so cute with the  Sweet treat  cups  so I made mine  into  another type of  spider  same idea except mine is the  sweet treat cups  that hold M&M's  and Not a peppermint patty ,

  Mine doesn't stand  on its own like Lauras  did But I think it is  still so cute ...

Ghost card ....

Hi Stampers :

Happy Monday  to all of you .

I made this ghost card  this past weekend . Cut my card  at 4 1/4 " X 11 " scored at 5 1/2".

  Then  I used a  large cup to  form the  curve of his head  other  than than  LOTS & LOTS of Dazzling diamonds . LOVE IT!!

I used Versa Mark # 102283 all over my ghost body then applied Heat & Stick #100625  then used my Heat tool  # 100005 to heat  the heat & stick  then applied the Dazzling  Diamonds # 102023  all over ..

I used the Large Oval Punch #107305 ( whisper white punched  3 times  cut the  3rd one in half to make eyelids  ) and the Small Oval punch # 107304. ( Punched  with Black card stock 2 punches .Then  cut 1  in half  the other one was used for his mouth )

I hand cut the  bottom  edge of my  ghost.

Hope  you have a Fabulous Day . I did very very little  talking yesterday so 1 day down so many more to go :( 

Until Later.. Happy Stampin!

 

Dawn's Sunday Share 10-11-09

Hi Stampers : Happy Sunday !

Here  is a card I made  for a  couple friends  to send Jessie's Senior photo  in the mail . I love  Black card  stock with the  summer  sun  which makes  the photo pop even more in my humble opinon .Iused  the Daisies #2 Bigzs Die #114520  with my Big shot machine #113439  the  center of the daisy  is a Vintage  brad # 109109 the DSP  is  from the Night & Day Specialty  designer paper #116768 in the holiday mini  right now . I used the Slit punch #104388  to hold the photo on the front of my card . 

On a Funny  side note  Jessie posted her  senior photos on her face book and one of her  friends posted  a cute comment  about this photo  ( thinks  your  Tractors  sexy )  and then  I thought  How cute is that?  Of course Jessie's friend  was  refering to this cute song :) Click HERE

  

Here is my Sunday Share  video link  today. I love Lonestar  and this  song ( Mountains )  is AWESOME  Hope it  blesses  you  today !

 I can't post the actual  video here  so you  will need to click HERE  to view on you tube .

October 2009 Thank you Notes video ...

Hi Stampers :

I Still Don't have my voice back  But I went  ahead  and  filmed  todays  video  for you  all .

 Many have  already recieved your  October Thank you note/s from me and you  are probably  wondering HOW in the world  did I do that HUH?  so Here is How I  made them .

 I used the Autumn Splendor Stamp set # 116503 and the Grateful Greetings  stamp set #116511 along with  OH  so Fabulous  Shimmer Paint  called Champagne Mist #116806 all these  items are in the Holiday Mini .

I just love love love the shimmer paint  and there are  seriously  so many  ways  to use it BUT   the way I use it  today in my video  on my Thank you notes is MY all time favorite.

You may remember doing this technique with Pearl Ex ( which SU! use to sell years ago ) But  Shimmer Paint Totally Rocks !

Makes all your  cardstock shimmer  & sparkle  with just a couple squirts :) 

Big Thanks goes to Glenda My new found  friend  from Founders circle  for reminding us  about this  technique from the past  ..

I love it when old things are all NEW again.. Don't YOU ?   It's sooo awesome !  

Have fun and Please excuse my voice .

Until later.. Happy Stampin!

A new Video coming tomorrow ( Saturday Oct 10, 2009 ) ..

Hi Stampers :

Despite having NO voice still( 17 days  now )  I went ahead and made my video on my  October Thank you notes.  This video will be posted tomorrow ( Saturday Oct 10, 2009  ..

So stay tuned for that  But a   gentle  warning   you  will  have  to  excuse my  voice  for this video  I figured I had better at least make this video  since  October may be over by the  time I get my  voice back ..

Thank you  all again for your  well wishes & Prayers  for my voice to return .

Until later.. Happy Stampin!

Hi Stampers :

Here is one of my cards   my Hostess's  will be making at my HAP on the 17th of  October .

I used the Snow buddies ( Hostess level 2 in Holiday Mini )  stamp set  is just  perfect for this type of  card  and I love it ! I added  some Bashful blue ink  to the embossed  areas on my card  with  my sponge & I added  Lots of Dazzling Diamonds # 104430 to my  snowman .(video  coming  as soon as I get my voice back )

Twick or Tweet..

Hi Stampers :

 Here is  another Twick or Tweet card . I used my ole' time favorite Color Elegant Eggplant card  stock #105126 for my  base with the Twick or Tweet stamp set 116497.

 I also used Only Orange 102837 , Black card  stock #102851 with the Cast-a spell designer paper #115677 

The Modern lable punch #11630  and word window  punch#105090 for the greeting Black GG ribbon #109027 with the Horizontal slot punch #105089 and lots of doodle dots  with my White Gel pen # 105021.

The frame I used the  Scallop edge punch#112091   and the Only orange card stock for frame was  cut at 2 3/4" X 2 3/4" Punching 1 time   on each of the 4 sides  lining up between the 2 center lines of the scallop edge punch on back side ( video as  soon as I get my  voice back  ) Really  easy  trick to get a Fun and different  layer  for your projects .

The  scallop square punch # 112081  with Elegant Eggplant was  used  to layer behind cute twick 0r tweet chic was just cut  in half  

Have a Great day and thanks  for peeking in today

Thank you so much ...

Hi Stampers :

Thank you  all so much for your  well wishes  on my  voice .. I went  to the  doctor  on  Saturday  the 26th  He gave me a cough  syrup  with Codine  to help me not  to cough so much at night  when I go to bed .

 It seems the  coughing isn't as bad now Praise God ! But my  voice is Not back.

 Doctor  said it  will have  to run its  course and there is Nothing  I can do  for Laryngitis

  I  sound like Minnie Mouse now ~ every once in awhile  my voice breaks  through BUT its only for a  tiny moment . Funny thing is  every day that my hubby calls  he  says  I sound better :) ( I am NOT) Between you  and me  I think he is just getting use to me sounding like this ..

Thank you  all again  for your  emails /prayers / well wishes . I will be back  making my  videos  as soon as my  voice  returns ..

P.S Jessie  said  she  would  do the talking on my  videos  for me BUT that is  just to FUNNY  but hey  great idea so  who knows . She is such a sweetie for saying that  HUH?

Until later... Happy Stampin!

Snow Buddies

Hi Stampers :

Here are my Stampers club Hostess Cards  for  this up coming  Saturday night .

I used the Hostess  level 2 stamp set  from the Hoilday mini Called Snow Buddies  I just love this stamp set .

 Plus I get to use my Stamp-a-ma-jig #101049 for these  adorable images . I love any chance I can get to use this Fabulous tool to make such cute  projects line up perfectly .

The Merry Christmas greeting is  from the  stamp set Called Four the Hoildays #116921 which is in the Holiday mini as well .

I still have no voice OH my goodness this has got to be the longest 14 days of my LIFE  

Have a Terrific day  friends!

Simple Snowflake Card ...

  Hi Stampers :

I got around finally  to play with my new stencils  from Stampin'Up! Oh my  goodness this card  is seriously  so  easy and  so much fun .

  I used the  brand new  Decor stencils on my card  today  called Vintage Ornaments II # 118141 . You  can click HERE  to  view  the other stencils  SU! has .

 They are located on  page 29-31  in the Definitely Decorative  brochure. .

 I used Bashful blue  classic ink  for my  card  today  and the stars  on my card is  just  the  center of the  snowflakes . I also added a bunch of dazzling  diamonds  to all the  images  ( of course ) .

 Stencils are  a Great way  to decorate  your  walls as well  so let your imagination  run wild  with them .

Until later.. Happy Stampin!
