And So it Begins - A New Year of Swaps

It's that time the final swap list is out for the Chicago Area Rubber Stampers or C.A.R.S. stamping group. We meet at CraftFancy on the second Tuesday of every month except December. The group has been around for a very long time since Desiree(she is the founder) had her stamp shop in town years ago.

This year I have decided to do only Christmas/Holiday Cards except for September and October where the theme dictates either a season or non-card. In doing so I will create a couple of extra each month above and beyond the 16 required and keep them for my Holiday cards in December. I'm excited to be getting a head start on the things I rarely get done around the Holiday's. Seems wrong when a card maker doesn't send out holiday cards.

This is the first month's card the theme is Paint Chips so here is what I came up with. I wend to the hardware store and let the color that inspired me lead me to what I would create. As always I try to use those supplies I have collected and never or rarely use and/or a technique I've been wanting to try. (I know you know it's never but I added rarely so I don't sound like a hoarder of craft supplies.....) This time I've used some Stampin Up snowflakes(had to mount them) a Martha Stewart border punch and the greeting is from a My Favorite Things set which I do used but it was the perfect size. The patterned paper is from my BoBunny Double Dots stash and just a bit of silver mirror card to give it some sparkle.

If your curious here is the entire swap list for the year:
January - Paint Chips
February - White on White
March - Bargello
April - Faces
May - Scene Behind a Window
June - Circles
July - Washi Tape
August - Stamp a Container
September - Fall/Autumn
October - Gift Tags
November - Recycle/Upcycle

As always we create 16 to swap with the group.

Thanks so much for stopping by hope your having a wonderful day!

Fabulous Folds Today

A little peak of today's Folds Class @CraftFancy I will have a couple of kits left this weekend if your looking for one be sure to stop in or give us a call.

Todays Folds Class

This is the class I am teaching today at Craft Fancy. I thought this BoBunny paper is so super cute! The colors are a lot of fun! I used a few Lawn Fawn sets all of which had Happy Birthday in them, and a few Memory Box Dies and my new Bow die from My Favorite Things. There are a few punches thrown in for good measure. I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I did while creating them.

Hope everyone has an Awesome Day. Happy Full Moon! Thanks so much for wandering by today.

Proof I still Scrapbook!

I do scrapbook just not often! I have a bunch of layouts I've done in the last few months to share though. So here we go. The Girls at Navy Pier after getting all of their hair cut off. The pics are old cause one is now almost a teenager and the other one turned 10 last week. YIKES time flies.

Oh well I used a Papertrey Ink stamp and die cut along with a Martha Stewart deep edge punch. The papers are American Crafts.

As Always... Thanks for stopping by I appreciate your visit!

Cute Ian for Fall Copic Cards

For an upcoming class October 24th at Craft Fancy! I loved coloring Ian, The Greeting Farm stamps are my very favorite for Copics at the moment I collect them like they are never going to be available again. Here we will use the air compressor and the speckled airbrush technique. Fun Fun Fun! We've also used my favorite Hero Arts greeting set at the moment. Hope you can join us. Don't forget your markers.
