Totally TURTLES

My up up upline (is that enough ups?) sent me a beautiful card that I want to share with you. Look at the sparkle on this! She sent me some rhinestones too. I guess I'm doing pretty good since I'm in her top five! Wow! Thank you Maria ! Here's the card I sent out to my top ten demos in sales: Soon you will be able to get the banner punch in the upcoming Stampin' Up! catalog. But soon Making a Point stamp set will retire. It's a hostess set in the mini catalog that ends June 1. So if you want to be a hostess let me know. It's only $150 order. Do this while we have free shipping and you can save $15. Free shipping ends today! I also used Gorgeous Grunge . I love this set! Amazing how you can use it for different affects. This card makes it look like sand. Yeah! Soon summer will be here and you'll want to get your toes in the sand and feel the warmth of the sun. My downline gets some huge benefits from me. Monthly drawings, top ten card, PLUS ...

Okay, I really like this kit. It's actually amazing. Because I can make cards, scrapbooks and display cards for food. But really what I love most about this kit is the paper bark. Love the texture of it. Here's a card I made with it. The leaves are already die cut for you. I think that houndstooth paper is perfect for fall. I did add some Pool Party Cardstock to this because I love the color combo. Plus our burlap ribbon is so easy to use on projects. I'll post the scrapbook page I made later. I need to get some shut eye. Thanks for looking. If you have any questions let me know. Oh and here's the item numbers to help you order the stuff you need. 133463    Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit 132140    1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon

I did in fact make some cards today. Thank you cards for the businesses that donated food, door prizes and more to the first Girl Scout Convention for our area. Here's a picture of them while I was putting them together. I used mostly Stampin' Up! supplies for this. The Girl Scout Logo is online and the paper is from the Girl Scouts too. Punches are from SU!. As a Girl Scout leader I do a lot of fun crafts with my troop. Today I was able to share what I do best (crafting) with new leaders and help them learn about SWAPS, earning badges through art, making special gifts on a budget. Not that I really know how to budget but I do try to be frugal with my supplies and use up what I have and not have to buy too much. Each of the leaders in my class today got to make a swap using the butterfly punch and then add a few beads. Really easy. I also let them use some stamps, markers and blender pens to make a card. Talking to these wonderful ladies about Girl Scouts was am...
