Stamp clubs and projects

It has been a busy two days with Earlibirds stamp club yesterday and the Fuzzy Pebbles in Mossyrock today.  I really enjoy my stamp clubs as there is so much laughter and good times to be had.  These ladies have been stamping with me for quite a few years and they never get tired of all of the projects that I bring.  I'll be posting those projects over the next several weeks so stay tuned for more great ideas.  In the meantime, here is the last project from my Simply Stampin' Lunch Bunch.  This is one that I copied directly from one of my favorite demonstrators, Julie Davison.  Julie is one of the nicest ladies that I have met through Stampin' Up!.  She is so willingto answer questions and share her wonderful gift of creativity.  Julie calls this one her "Hidden Message Slider Card".  Everyone loved the way this turned out and the fun stamp set that gets very little attention.

My Swap of the Month project for February was a friend card using lace or fancy ribbon.  It could be paper or fabric.  I decided to use one of our most popular stamp sets from the Occasions mini and the Paper Lace that we had in our catalog several years ago.  I am trying so hard to use up some of my huge stash of goodies as I decided that I really didn't want to win anymore.  Of course I mean that "she who dies with the most crafting supplies, wins".  Here is my February Swap of the Month card.

I had some problems taking pics of the Aerubbecisor swaps as they wouldn't copy right side up so I will take the pictures again and hope I figure out why my I-phone hates me.  I have all of the Birthday Blitz cards to share and my stamp club projects so there is no shortage of blog post material.  Stay tuned.  Hugs, Sherron
