Donna’s Recipe Card – Girlfriends Weekend
April 16, 2013
Girlfriends weekend was in early April. We always have a good time and this was no exception! The trip is…
January Projects (Happy Hedgehogs & Sweet Conversations)
Saturday, January 8th at noon – Lowell Fire Station
Tuesday, January 11th at noon – Daneland Community Center
Thursday, January 13th at noon – Henderson Community Center
Guess WHAT? A new catalog has arrived and it's live effective January 4th! AND it is Sale-a-Bration time (for 2 months). Are you ready to start the year right and get stampin? If you have a few minutes, watch the videos in advance of class. Here are this month's projects:
There are two Valentines Day designs and one Happy Hedgehog design, in three flavors. Here are a few photos:
Happy Hedgehogs:
Can you find 3 candles? Do you like mushroom/cinnamon flavored birthday cake?
When you imagine mushrooms, do you imagine them in red/poppy? … with white dots? This was my last sample card. Originally I made the purple card with a purple mushroom – very cute. I bought the bundle for the hedgehogs. When the bundle arrived, I decided I really, really like that tree! After making purple mushrooms, I knew this entire bundle is all about that mushroom! SO the final sample is loaded with mushrooms. I assume hedgehogs like mushrooms. Heck, did you see the birthday cake? It is specially flavored with mushroom!
After making the video, I kinda felt bad about 'geeking out' over hedgehogs and mushrooms… oh well. 
This DSP is soooo happy, bright and fresh! I planned to use it with the original bundle, but, well – here it is. 
Here is the fold/cutting/scoring template. The paper base is standard size (see below for paper cut sizes).
The Happy Hedgehogs stamp set is bundled with a Hedgehog Builder punch! Yup, ya getta save 10%! The card above required NO coloring. I stamped the hedgehog in black on Sahara sand card stock and a second time on crumb cake card stock. Punched them and whalaa… adorable hedgehog. You can add a hint of color if you like. 
Sweet Conversations Lotsa Hearts
Ok, I'll admit, I made FIVE designs using this paper. Right after Christmas we found ourselves in a winter snow globe. We planned a visit to Sacramento and had to postpone the trip due to weather. Tony is off work, we are stuck at home (a stay cation, right), it is bright, cold and beautiful outside with all that snow. What would you do? I get creative. The other designs will be in the project box and I'll post them in a few days.
This card is simple and really cute. What a great combo!
Candy!!!
I hope to see you next week!
