Snow!

This is a super cute scrapbook page we made at the Kansas City Regional Conference.  It's kinda chilly here, so it seems it won't be long before I'll be able to stick a picture of my kiddos on it! 

Don't you love all the dimension on this page?  The polka dots along the side are just punched out with the 3/4" circle punch and put on the page! 

The arrow before the "ready,set" was used from the middle of the W letter of the chipboard.

The snowflake is from the set "Best Wishes & More" that we received for free for attending the Regional. Pretty cool considering I get to go for free based on my Stampin' Up! title. Gotta love SU!!!!  They sure do spoil their demonstrators!

Kansas City Regional Projects

I know, I know.  I've been neglecting my blog lately. Well, I'm ready to change that!  I have so many swaps to share. I have still have some some great ones from convention I've been wanting to share, and I just went to the Kansas City Regional Saturday and have cool swaps from that, PLUS, I also joined a swap with my Rising Star group with samples from the Mini Catalog that is available October 1.  Those are always rockin' swaps and I can't wait to get them back! 

Anyway, this was one of the cards we made at the KC Regional Conference. I think it was one of my favorites!  I love how you use the ribbon to make the flower.  How pretty is that. I know my "Hi There" is a little crooked, but I didn't have a stamp-a-ma-jig to help me out, so I guessed. I suppose I guessed wrong. I love my stamp-a-ma-jig and use it all the time for things like this.  I think this might be a project at an upcoming stamp camp. What do you think?

I'll post more samples from the KC Regional. I wasn't feeling too well at the conference, so I didn't get all the projects finished that day. I'll have to complete a few of them, and I'll upload as I get them done. Enjoy!
