~Stampin' Up! November 29th Workshop & Winter Card Exchange~ 

Homework: Yes, lol Homework Due! *Winter Card Exchange* 

4-1/4" x 5-1/2" *Winter Theme Cards* 

Make all {6-7} cards exactly alike. 

Here is the challenge... 

Your cards must have four winter collages on them. 

The collages can be any shape or size 

BUT, for example if you make your collages 2-1/4" square, 

the remaining three must be 2-1/4". 

If you use a 2" circle, all four of your collages must be a 2" circle. 

You can use your own winter color choice, layer, add glitter, etc... 

be unique, where ever your imagination takes you. 

And, as always, we will be making 3 projects.

~WEEKLY DEALS~ 

Good Morning All, 
What a day it's been here in Colorado... 
dumping rain & hail all over our state. 
I was on my way to a doctor appointment when I 
got caught up in some major street flooding. 
Fire trucks passed through traffic & blocked the street. 
A cute fireman went to each vehicle & told us we 
had to turn around...*Home Sweet Home* Bound! 

I thought I would work on my blog for our... 
~August 30th Stampin' Up! Workshop~ 
And...*Summertime* Theme Card Exchange. 
Judy will be our hostess. Yay Judy! 
Hostess Code: A733QVQT 
These cards were planned & created early/mid June. 
Since most of our group had vacations & other activities 
going on through the month of July, we decided to postpone 
our workshop & place online orders until August. Well, as 
you can see by our late date that things are still going on, Ha!

~Diagonal Double Pocket Card~ 

Years before I became a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, 

I would travel to Fountain, CO for monthly workshops. 

Sarah *MilesOfStamping* showed us this unique fold. 

We followed Claudia Rosa's Tutorial. 

The {far right} Stampin' Up! Charbon DSP 

was my very first Diagonal Double Pocket Card.  

I Love It! 

Thank You Sarah! :) 

Now It's My Turn... 

I started out by telling the girls that I had a 

Shhhhhh... *Top Secret Card Idea* 

Not knowing what I am up too... 

I ask them each to choose a Stampin' Up DSP 

stack {not specialty} from pages 142-143 of our 

2015/2016 annual catalog. Then I wanted to know 

which one sheet of 12"x12" paper & one color they 

liked best from the stack they chose... 

Michelle~Bohemian, 2nd from right, Bermuda Bay. 

Sue~Bohemian, 3td from right, Rich Razzleberry. 

Linda~Sweet Li'l Things, 4th from right, Watermelon Wonder. 

Lori~Sweet Li'l Things, 5th from right, Tangelo Twist. 

Judy~Sweet Li'l Things, 4th from right, Watermelon Wonder. 

Tracy~undecided Ha! funny girl :) 

Bees or Eggplant, Hello Honey or Blackberry Bliss. 

I now have all their kits together, except Tracy's JK! {haha} 

along with matching card stock & ribbon from the color they 

chose from their stack. They will also make tags for their cards 

using the Scalloped or Ornate Tag Topper punches. 

Make & Take home to stamp as desired :) 

Me~Timeless Elegance, 4th from right, Sahara Sand. 

*Summertime* Theme Card Exchange. 

Make 6~7 cards exactly alike, 

adding a critter {animal, insect, retile etc...} 

~By The Tide~
