Baby cards

It's inexcusable how long I've gone without blogging this month! My goal is to keep you up-to-date with new cards and projects several times a week. Ok, we'll see if that happens or not, right???

Finally, an update!

Hello all!

So sorry I've been absent from blogging this month. It's crazy how fast time flies. . . .

First of all, I will be posting some pictures and other things later today. I just need to get the camera and work on that.

Secondly, I have a bunch of retired stamp sets available, so I'm getting ready to post that.

OH -- the biggest reason why I haven't been blogging is that we've found a house, so I've been doing the "paperwork shuffle"! Those of you who have purchased or refinanced, know what I mean. I'm also in the midst of packing and getting rid of stuff, so my days are long and filled with sorting and resorting (because after I sort stuff, the kids come along and "un sort" it for me). What a joy! hee. . . hee. . .

Christmas Card Club

This year, I will be holding my annual Christmas Card Club on the 3rd Thursday of each month starting this month. (The above card was a make n' take from my Christmas in July Open House.) We will make 10 cards each month, 5 each of 2 different designs.

The classes are $15 each and will be held in my home. Please email me for more information: kellybstampin@yahoo.com.

These are the cards we will make this month:

(quick & easy with designer series paper)

Christmas in July

Last Saturday, I had a Christmas in July Open House. We had a great time talking and stamping together, as well as browsing Christmas items together. It's never too early to start!

Here's some of the projects from that day. . . . .

1st birthday

I just can't believe my baby turned one year old Monday! This is the card I made for her:

Supplies: Rose Red, Basic Black cardstock; Cutie Pie designer series paper, on board number, pink gingham ribbon, rose red craft ink (to dye the "1") and stampin' dimensionals.

Very quick and easy card to put together.

Rockin' Girl Blogger!

WOW! I was nominated by fellow blogger & stamper Rita for the "Rockin' Girl Blogger" Award. How cool is that?! Thanks Rita! Make sure you check out her blog here. She always has great cards posted there.


By the way . . . I have space for 5 more people in my Stamps in the Mail program. If you'd like to sign up, please contact me via email ASAP: kellybstampin@yahoo.com. Go here for a hint of one of the two stamp sets you'll get in your kit. It's even more versatile than the set everyone received in Round One, and supplemented with a COOL set of words, it's perfect for Stamps in the Mail!
