Winner of Blog Candy and return of Swallowtail


Today is the 30th os September and I did my drawing from the comments on my blog since the LNS Treasure Hunt started. I did two drawings so these are the lucky winners. Send me your snail address so I can send your "candy" to you. 
Hi Carolee. Great blog and great clue for the LNS Treasure Hunt Blog hop. Your card was beautiful and I love how you used the mask. Thanks so much for sharing and playing along in the hop. Enjoy!
and...
What a fun hop and your card is beautiful. Sponges aren't just for cleaning! LOL
I will be doing another blog candy drawing at the end of the LNS Treasure Hunt from all the comments left on my blog between now and the end of the Hunt. 


It has been awhile since I have done something with the beautiful Swallowtail.
This one is three dimensional and done with the Labels Collection of the framelits.
It is another one of the cards that will be at the Stamp Along on the 14th of October.

Punch art, Framed art, and LNS Treasure Hunt reminder

I got this darling punch art card idea at convention from Dorothy Hensley. 
I have changed the punch used for the feet but other than that it is the same as hers. 
It is all packed and ready to go to the Stamp Along at the Library on October 14th. 
The cute little minions will be back also. 



This is the framed art. It is in a black frame but I got a little too close for the photo. 
This is done mainly with the beautiful Winter Frost Specialty paper (132341) in the Holiday Catalog.
Interested in making one? 
I will prepare the kit for you. 
The class will be on October 30th at Schroeder's in Two Rivers at 1:00. 
The fee is $15. You will need to provide the frame of your choice.
The frame I used is on sale right now at Hobby Lobby for only $5 something until Friday. 
I will also do this class at your home for the same fee if you have a group doing it. 
Email me to set up a date.

Busy or Bumming?


I spent some time with my daughter and her kids. Not something I get to do often enough! I went with the purpose of helping her with her busy schedule that included canning tomatoes. 
We did some stamping while I was there and one of the girls came up with these cute little critters. 


Since the girls didn't have school on one of the days that I was there, it was decided that we should do something fun instead of just work. 
Off to the zoo we went! It was a fantastic day! 





We had a great time at the zoo and got the tomatoes canned, too!

Don't forget about the LNS Treasure Hunt. You could win over $150 in Stampin' Up! product! Just click on the LNS square just above my picture. Good luck!

BOO !



Halloween is coming! 
How cute would this be hanging on your door? 
It is much more sparkly in real life. The letters are covered with glitter! 
I will be doing a class so you can make one of these for your door. 
It will be on Wednesday, September 25 at Schroeder's at 1:00 PM
Can't make that? Maybe we can schedule another time. Let me know.


When Halloween is over just turn your door/wall hanging to the other side and it is good to go for another month! 
This is the other side. Both sides included in the class for only $10!
