Last weeks stamp diva club!

A lot of you have asked about the tutorial, here is the site I found it on: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/envelopegiftbox/

For Stamp diva club last week we made these super cute envelope boxes and 4 cards to go inside. We only used 3 colors concord crush, pear pizzaz and early espresso and we used the sweet summer set from the sale a bration catalog.

This was one of the cards that we made to go inside the box

Stampin up altered letters

Another project that I have been working on for the nursery. I purchased these letters at my local craft store I covered them in Early Espresso Card stock and then I used Paper from several different packs, I used the E from the nursery suite collection, G from the In color paper pack, the R is from Elegant soiree...sticking with 3 colors Baja Breeze, pear pizzaz, and early Espresso.

I have been working Promise!

I've been alittle slow with the blog lately, with all the sickness and busy busy stuff thats been going on I have not really had much time on my hands! I did want to share with you a few of the non-stampin up things I have been working on in preparation for our new arrival in the coming months.

I have been working on and finally completed his baby blanket! Now its ready to keep him warm!

I also made him so burp cloths using my new sewing machine that I got for christmas! I'm finally putting it to use....

So I have been crafting Promise!

Missing in Action

I know I have been out for a while, Ive had the flu that has been going around and I was sick for a week and a half! Im slowly but surely feeling better and apologize for not having fantastic ideas to share!

Wanted to share our good news, in the midst of the Flu we found out that we are expecting a Little boy in July! We are certainly excited and our Three year old daughter is ready to be a big sister! So I wanted to share our baby shower invitations with you and thank you notes that I created with Digital Studio. If you have not gotten this software there are so many options and possibilites of things that you can create!

This is a 5x7 invitation

a 4 x 5 1/2 notecard for Thank yous

Hope you enjoy this idea and for more information on My Digital Studio visit my Stampin up website!

Breaking from valentines!

Wanted to take a break from all the cute Valentine projects to share with you these great cards we made Tuesday night at our Replinish your Stash-Stamp a Stack! We had a great time together with a few new faces!

I love this paper from the new occasions mini and with the stamp from the Eat Choc. Set it makes a super cute Birthday card for any Domestic Goddess in your life!

This one by far is my favorite! I love this paper and the stamps together, its nice a cozy. A great card just to let someone know that you are thinking about them. This paper is also from the new Occasions Mini!

This is still my favorite paper yet from Stampin up! Green house Gala! I let the class decide what they wanted to put on the outside to make it any theme they wanted, sometimes we need some blank notes, some need more birthdays so I let them decide!

Next time I hope you can join me for a Class! Email me for my newsletter or check out my class schedule on my website http://www.michellerabon.stampinup.net/
