YIPPPPY!!! I GOT MY FREE $150 ORDER TODAY!

I am so excited to earn the title of Manager and for that Stampin UP gave me a $150 shopping spree! Did I say I love Stampin UP! Here are my goodies and I wanted to share my moment with you. :) Here is the new Tasteful Trim Bigz die from the Holiday Mini. I can't wait to use it. I decided to lay the die cuts (card stock) accross my Stampin UP apron to see what it could do for my apron. Can I say I love it. I know that we can cut up to 8 layers of fabric with this die and I will fold it right before the cutting line so it will be continues and I will first iron on the fabric adhesive so all I have to do it iron it on my apron. I will show you when I finish that project. I have always loved rick rack and I can see so many possiblities with this. Add it to a baby t-shirt or a kitchen towel for gifts. Please check back to see what I come up with. Thanks for looking.

Brown Apron with Build a Bear and Flowers

My friend and team member Polly gave me her brown Stampin UP apron recently and I wanted to spiffy it up a little bit. I saw so many cute ideas at leadership. Jill Olsen had a cute flowers on her apron and another presenter from Canada had a build a bear on her apron pocket so I decided to combine both ideas and make my new apron really cute and this is what I came up with. What do you think. I used felt for the build a bear and scrap fabric for the build a bear clothes and cut the flowers with the pennant scallops plus a dash of summer sun corduroy buttons to show off those flowers. Thanks for looking.
