am I a stampin' narcissist....

I recently looked up the word narcissist, it meant one in love with it self or something like that.

Well sometimes I'm in love with my own card creations.....

I made 3 different cards using the new heart die.  I looked and looked on the internet, trying to find an idea and didn't really come up with much at the time, so I had to start creating my own card....go figure......

Then I couldn't decide which one I wanted to do...

Here is one I like using the Gate Fold style, but I'm not planning on using this for class....

but I do like it...

I still have 3 more cards to make decisions on....2 haven't been invented yet.....

Need to get busy....

Have a lovely day, oh and none of these cards have glitter, yet, so no glitter pants for now..

up, up and away..........

as voice fades off in the distant.....

Two different cards made with a FREE stamp set!

I was planning on using the first one for card classes this month then thought..hummmm, wouldn't it be fun to make this a spinner card...then I thought, hummmm, wouldn't it be fun to have puffy clouds...

I don't know if I'm a genius, mad scientist or crazy stamper, but when I remembered that Dawn Giffith had made snow with shaving cream and white glue, I thought hummmmm, I could use that to make clouds....(hummm, there's a whole lot of "hummmmming",going on).

You take one part shaving cream (believe me on teaspoon is enough of both) and one part white glue and mix together and paint on..Eureka! I've created a cloud! Paint on with small paint brush...let dry and add another layer if you want.

I have 4 more card fronts drying as we speak (or I guess as I type)..I covered the black cloud outlines in some and then stamped one in Soft Sky ink and then painted my clouds...t see of course which one I like best.

Well back to the "Stamp Mines" as Jan Tink would say.

.....paper to stamp, cards to make and classes to get ready for...

HS,
Wanda (Glitter Pants is at Work)

happy stampin' new year!

As they sometimes say, 'Today is the first day of the rest of your life.'
How true. All past mistakes, bad choices and so on, are all in the past,  and today, each day we can begin a new, fresh clean page....

Don't know quite why I wrote that.....reflections? time to start a new diet?

Well I had a great start to the New Year by seeing all my babies from Ohio, Oklahoma and Tennessee.
I didn't have them at Christmas, but we all met in Tennessee for the New Year....

I did make one, or should I say 3 cards with a new Occasional catalog that you can start ordering from at 4:00am Central Time;0)

Not posting those pics today though, just a couple of cards we have and are sending out for "church cards". (if you want to know what those are just ask me.)

This is the card we sent out last week....we sent out 36 of these! We did this card in our Nov class.
I got this idea from Connie Babbert at inkspiredtreasures.com. She is a great artist.

This stamp set is Little Cuties and today is the last day you can order it, so if you really like it you better call me today and order it! (it also has an angel and elf image, we made lots of cute cards with this stamp set.)

 

 

This the card we will be sending out next...My darling Mom brayered and embossed about 40 of these for me! I just taped them onto some Lost Lagoon card stock and added some red birds punched out with my Tree Builder punch.  At first I just punched them out of Real Red  card stock and then decided to use some Red Glimmer paper, pretty.

They decided to retire this embossing folder, Woodland Textured, but it was so popular that they are bringing it back from retirement this coming May..smart move Stampin' Up!

Well Glitter Pants goes back to work tomorrow, thank the Lord...
He has decided he doesn't want to retire any time soon and I decided I don't want him to either....

Nough said about that for now..

Let look forward to a happy, healthy, God filled, stampin' New Year!
