September Technique Class

Here's Carolyn and Janice showing off their Halloween pop up card. The next class is the 4th Thursday of October.

Fall Color at the Cabin

It's Fall in the Colorado Rockies, and the Aspen are gold. The picture on the right isn't too easy to see, but there is a herd of elk and 2 bulls bugling. Quite a sight in Gilpin County.
If you click on the picture it will show up full screen and you can see the elk.

Halloween Card

Here's a Halloween card using the Stampin' Up! Haunting Jumbo wheel. We'll be making this card at my Technique Class next Thursday, the 25th. If you are in the Denver Metro area, you are invited to come. There is no charge, but a $15.00 catalog order is required. Email me at AnnStamps@att.net to reserve your spot.

Playing with my Big Shot

Here's a card that I made using the Stampin' Up!Haiku designer series paper. I used the Big Shot and the SU exclusive Scallop Envelope, and the Buttons dies. All images copyright SU.

New Sizzix Big Shot

I'm really loving my new Big Shot! You can make great gifts such as this Christmas frame! Wasn't I cute in 1959!

With the Big Shot you can cut over 50 different material types and duplicate creative and intricate designs quickly and easily.

SU has designed exclusive dies that coordinate with current Stampin' Up! product lines--such as stamps and punches--as well as Sizzix dies that coordinate with the Stampin' Up! look and feel.

Stampin' Up! has also developed some great raw materials for you to use with your Big Shot machine. Currently, they're offering four colors of raw vinyl sheets and needed transfer sheets (Gray, White, Kraft, and Chocolate). You can also purchase raw chipboard sized specifically for the Big Shot.

Moving Day is Coming - Alley Moving Van

Rick and I spent the last weekend at his parent's home in Washington, Kansas cleaning out their basement and attic. When they took all that stuff up there, who did they think was going to get it down? They will soon be moving to their new home at the Tabitha Village Apt. in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Luckily the alley moving van proved useful!

Labor Day Party at Cabin

Labor Day! The end of summer. It's been cold at the cabin, so the aspen will be turning soon. Here's Karen, Susan, and Carolyn checking out the SU catalog trying to decide on this year's Christmas card. The Mini Catalog will be here soon, with lots of beautiful Christmas Stamps!
