I don't have many stamps that aren't Stampin' Up!, so this Bella image is one that I received as happy mail from a fellow skinny bopper over on splitcoaststampers. I thought it would be fitting for a teenage birthday card. She worked out fabulously, and I love it! Now I need to shop for Bellas!! *Roll Eyes* I just hate that!! :-) Thanks for stopping by for a visit today, and I hope you have a safe and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Jefferson City Sassy Stampers October Meeting
This card was a CASE of one that we did at Nancy Williams house for our Downline Stamping Night on October 20th! Thanks, Nancy for the inspiration for this quick and easy, card.
This 6x6 brag book page was designed from an example on the SU website. I am trying hard to utilize more of the workshop wizard templates they provide for us, and I'm finding them to be a very helpful resource. The photo is one of my sister Angie's kids from Halloween last year. Aren't they CUTE?!!!!!
Stamps: Haunting Wheel, House of Haunts
Paper: Lovely Lilac, Whisper White, Tangerine Tango, Kiwi Kiss
Accessories: 1 3/4 Circle Punch, Tangerine Tango Striped Grosgrain Ribbon
Ink: Lovely Lilac, Basic Black
For our final stamp club project, we made these adorable little diaper fold pouches, inspired by (of course), my dear friend Paola who held a diaper fold pouch swap on splitcoaststampers that I participated in. These little cuties were made from 6x6 paper, but they can be made from any size square sheet of paper to vary the size of the pouch. The bigger the paper...the bigger the pouch! They really are easy to make, and they make wonderful gift holders!!! The adorable little bat is made with the scalloped square punch, and this wonderful idea came from Jill Hilliard on her blog, Jill's Card Creations. She has a fantastic blog that I love to visit regularly!!

Weekend Card Class #2
There are just so many exciting and wonderful things in Stampin' Up!'s new Winter Mini Catalog. I love the Alpine Originals Ribbon and the Felt Snowflakes! The possibilities are endless with all the wonderful things that are being offered, and I could just play for hours! I could...but I don't! I take every chance I can get to do some playing though! Hopefully, I'll have many more samples to share with you soon! Have a blessed day, and thanks for stopping by!

It was such a great day spent stamping with someone new to this craft that I love so much. Deborah is a wonderful and sweet lady, and it was a pleasure to get to know her. I post a warning for all my first time stampers that this is a highly addictive hobby, and now Deborah completely understands what the warning is all about! Hee, hee, hee! *wink* *wink* Have a beautiful day, and thanks for sharing a little bit of it with me!!!!
