Wishes for Lacy

I don't know why I can't turn this to stand up, but this is what I made using My Digital Studio. I chose the back ground to match the shower favors, and made the lettering Brown. I used the Label Punch as a border for the title. It was fun! TFL! (C) STAMPIN'UP! 

Dessert Napkins

I polka dotted the small napkins for the baby shower. I can't run the bigger napkins thru the big shot, so I will have to do something else with them. (C)STAMPIN'UP! TFL! 

Dotted Envelope

I wanted to do something special with the envelopes, so I ran the flaps thru the Big Shot using the Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions folder. This particular texture is small enough to not affect the adheasion of the flap to the enveolpe.

Dana's Baby Shower Invitation

My niece is having a baby and I am so happy to be able to make these invitations for her. She is using "Mod Pod Monkey" in Lacy's room, so I printed the image on white cardstock and framed it with Chocolate Chip. The main part of the cards are made with Certainly Celery cardstock and the dots are made from VersaMark, sponge dobbers and the circle shape from the Shape-Ups stampset. I ran metal sheets thru the Big Shot with Textured Impressions Stripes. Before I wrapped them in Chocolate Chip Ribbon, I had to fill in the 'dents' on the back with Embossed Metal Backing Paste that I got from AddALittleDazzle.com. The metal always has to be attached to paper with Sticky Strip. I popped up the Chocolate Chip cardstock with dimentionals.

Oops! I forgot!

I made these out of foam and brads for all the participants of the flip flop contest. So loving my Big Shot! They can be attached to flip flops, or hair clips, or your purse as bling! Tons of uses!

We went to a wedding reception Saturday night. here is the front of the card I gave them. 

When you open the card, this is what you see

Open it again and you see this

Then, this is the back of the card.

 

This, by far, it THE coolest card I have ever made in my life! Oh! I also made them a shadowbox keepsake

 

And a bag to carry it in!

 

They told me they laid in bed and played with the card for hours! Not what I expected to hear from newelyweds!

Lake Martin Retreat 2012

These are pictures of some of the things we made for out Women's Outreach Retreat. Our colors are pink and black and white zebra stripes. We made iron-on tshirts for our flip flop theme. The straps say "Women's" "Retreat" "Lake Martin" "2012". 

 

Since we were going to be having fun in the sun, i thought we should have all natural lip balm with sun screen.

Our first night, we always go out to eat. We went to Uncle Nick's Smokehouse.

This was the view from our table. It was so beautiful!

I even ordered a cake in our theme from Lynn Rawlinson. Didn't she do a great job? And it was so yummy!

We make place cards for our dinner at the lake

We had a Flip Flop decorating contest. These are Linda's. She loves butterflies. The second pair is croched. That must have taken forever!  



Here are Mona's. She took scrapbooking items and attached them to her straps. All the items had a beach theme.

Here are my Flip Flops. I don't know why they remind me of Dora the Explorer! Even my Flip Flop decorations are weaing Flip Flops!



 

Here are Suzi's "Snack on-the-Go" Flip Flops. ("As God is my witness, ...I'll never be hungry again!")
