High Five for the Fan Fair Collection

Yummy is an understatement because the Fan Fair collection is to die for. I made a very simple Hybrid card for my convention swaps. Going hybrid allowed me to use the same piece of paper for 30 cards without having to by 3 packs of DSP - which is so me because I'm crazy thrifty. It's also a super time saver to make it once, print, cut and glue - BAM - it's done! Well, almost.... I usually have to add a few more embellishments before I'm happy. 

 Here's the how it looked before I put it together....

I was doing the Happy Hybrid dance when it was finished because I made 30 cards in 2 hours!!!

Thanks for stopping by - Mandy

She's so creative!

I just had to show off how creative my sweet little girl is, well I guess she's not so little anymore, she'll be in middle school next year. *sigh*

It was "Flower for your Teachers" last Thursday and Erika wanted to make flowers.  So this was her design (COMPLETELY, she asked for NO help). Are they not cute?  Little flower pots using the cupcake die!!! She filled the cupcake holder with rice and stuck the pencils in the rice. She wanted to spray paint the rice brown, like dirt, but she ran out of time.

She created 2 sets, one for her everyday teacher and one for her target teacher. 

Here's an up close view of the pencils. 

Erika used the large oval punch to create lots of petals and then she attached them to the pencil with sticky strip and glue dots. I love how she added the ribbon "leaves" to finish it off. I'm super proud of her and I know one day she be an awesome demonstrator. I think I'm going to have her design a card for my next month's card class! 

So what do you think? 

The Grab bags are going FAST, they are already having to use the $5 and $10 bags to send out the $15 options (still worth $60). So hurry and get your's today! 

CLICK HERE TO ORDER - there's tons of new items on the clearance rack, too! 

Happy Shopping,

Mandy 

No fooling, this is crazy

Ok, first I need to apologize to each of you that has come to visit numerous times to find.....NOTHING NEW. I'm not sure where the last 3 weeks went. I guess being sick thew me weeks backward.

Well, I had my Creative Cards class this morning (always fun) but when it was over I went to do my daily search of all things new (Stampin' Up! related). Today, I was blown away......I almost thought there would be an APRIL FOOLS sign under all the announcements.

There are new MYSTERY GRAB BAGS - how fun is that!

Another COOL thing is the update for MDS, it has so much it can do already and they have made it better! If you own MDS just go the the help tab in the top menu and select updates.
You'll be able to Group items together and then move, rotate and even recolor them all at once, and too many more to list but you can check it out here.

Make sure to put April 16th on your calendar for My next MDS class, even if you don't own the program you'll be amazed to see all it can do! So I hope you join me at 1:00 on the 16th.

L-inked Together,
Mandy

Blown away with all it can do!

WOW - Daily, I'm inspired on www.MyDigitalStudio.net 

There is so much that the program (MDS) can do to simplify the creative process.

Below are pictures (and the link) to a post that was shared yesterday, on www.mydigitalstudio.net. She gives TONS of pictures of the baby shower and how she used MDS to make it gorgeous!  This post thrilled me because once you do the work, for the first event, you can easily go in and change the colors to use it for another! That got me thinking....this will be the first "extra" MDS club video that I'll offer.
