Beautiful Friendship Birthday

Hi there crafty people!

I recently mentioned that I have fallen in love with the Beautiful Friendship stamp set.  Today's card also uses that wonderful set.  I combined images from Beautiful Friendship with a sentiment from the Magnolia Blooms stamp set (from the Beginner Catalog).

Gather Together Card Idea

I know I've shared a couple of cards using the Gather Together stamp set, dies, and papers, but I like to show that the products can be used for many cards.  So, here's another card idea.  This one, rather than seasonal, is more of an all purpose/thinking of you type of card.

Beautiful Friendship Card Idea

Even though the Holiday Catalog is up and running, there are wonderful products in the Annual Catalog.  Beautiful Friendship has gorgeous images that can be used to create an endless variety of cards.  So, even though the stamp set sat on my shelf unused for several weeks, once I inked it up, I found it hard to put it up.  This is a recent card I made using Beautiful Friendship.

Christmas Countdown Calendar

Hello stampers!

The Christmas Countdown Calendar is a must have for this holiday season!  It can be made any variety of ways, including with no stamping!  It looks great - and it's reusable!  

This kit also goes together quickly....it took me around an hour from start to finish!  

Another great feature of this kit is that the drawers can be turned around and decorated for a wedding, birthday, vacation -- or even used as an embellishment holder!

Best of all, this kit is a bargain at only $30.00 + tax and shipping!   

I've added a couple of workshops to my calendar so we can get together to assemble your kits.  Check my calendar for the dates and times.  I will provide the optional stamp set and inks.

If you like the kit, but don't have the time to assemble on your own, reach out to me at mcoverston@gmail.com for other options that may appeal to you.

These kits are currently available and in stock, but I recommend ordering soon to be sure you're not disappointed.  I know many of you will want this keepsake for yourself or for someone special!

Beauty & Joy

The leaves are starting to change around here.  Some trees are showing just a hint of change, others are more pronounced.  The explosion of fall colors inspired today's card using the Beauty & Joy Distinktive stamp set (150518).

This card also has a project sheet with all the supplies, measurements, and directions to recreate yourself.  You can find a link to it on the right side of the page.

Monster Bash Halloween

Hi everyone!

I have a special card for you today.  Cassy, a member of my team, designed this card using the Monster Bash Suite of products.  This is a great card, Cassy!  Thank you for sharing!

Here's the card front

And here is the inside

This is a "fancy fold" card.  From Cassy:  "the top flap tucks under the the sentiment which is popped up with black dimensionals".  I think that gives a good idea how it was made, but if you want to try it yourself, and have any questions, shoot me a note.

If you are in the O'Fallon MO area and would like to join Cassy's mailing list for her class schedule, send me your email and I will forward along to her.

Have a stamptastic weekend!

So Many Stars Brightly Gleaming

Hello Stampers!

I am so happy that we have a new stars bundle in the Holiday Catalog.  Both the stamp set and the dies are must have!  I used both, along with the gorgeous Brightly Gleaming Designer Series Paper to create this card.

I stamped the tiny stars and the sentiment in Night of Navy on Whisper White cardstock.  The stars and swirl were cut out of Copper Foil.  The mini stars are popped up with Dimensionals.
