Fall is in the air.....

Hi everyone I have been busy with workshops, classes, Stampin Bunco, Stamp Camp and needed to take a min to post some of my projects. I really need to start taking my pictures with my camera instead of my phone. I hope you like the ideas. Enjoy the cooler weather. This is a little cute tag that you can put a post it note into for a quick gift. Ilove the little bat punch.
Top Note Owl~ I love this little owl using the Top Note die and scallop circles and reg circles. This is an easy peasy project and it dares to make you smile.
Barbara wanted a fall theme and this is the card we made at her workshop.
Melodie wanted us to use the bird punch for her workshop and we made this one and they really liked it.
This is a masculin birthday card a friend in my building asked me to make. Thanks for stopping by.

Welcome to my NEW team member-Ginger

Good morning, I just wanted to share that I have a new team member Ginger Hunter from Greensboro, NC. I look forward to having her on my team. For joining my team this month Ginger received this awsome tote from Stampin UP and she got my last "Stampin' UP! Build a Bear" that I had saved for my new recruits this year.
You could have this cute tote too! Just give me a call if you would like the best job in the world, whether you want a part time job to get you out of the house for some adult conversation; while making extra play money or if you want a full time job earning money for the family. Contact me today for more information.
