Simply Stars

Simply Stars cake made by Belinda Loewen

Butterfly Chapstick Make & Takes by Martha Inchley

Party Favours made by Heather Summers Swap card made by Janey

I am a part of the "Simply Stars" team of Heather Summers and on Saturday we had our year end BBQ.
Jodie graciously hosted the event as Heather's home is under kitchen reno right now. Belinda made a cake that totally rocked not to mention was pretty yummy too. Martha prepared the make and takes (butterfly chapstick favour) and of coarse there were swaps. Jeannie participated in the swap and made a fabulous card. Jeannie did not want anyone to feel left out so she made one for everyone in attendance of the BBQ. The card is so cool, tin foil run through the Big Shot using the embossing folder. Thanks Jeannie, you are so kind and thoughtful. (Jeannie, if you have a blog please let me know and I can post it on my site.)

Thanks for checking in stampers and see you tomorrow.

Making room for new stock...

My husband works in Human Resources and when he is giving a training presentation in brings in specialist and likes to send then a Thank You card for their contribution in employee development. He asked me back in November to make up some Thank You cards and I kept putting it off (all for good reason as it was after all the Christmas season). Today I got ambitious and made a stack of them. The layout was cased from Dawn

I took the opportunity to use of retired stock for these cards as I figured if I use up the old DP I could justify ordering new stock...makes sense to me!

It is a good thing I only made two of the cards on the left becasue he thought the sentiment was too personal and preferred the general "Thank You" for his cards.

Stamps: Stem Silhouettes, Cheery Chat

Paper: Purely Pomegranate, Wild Wasabi, Whisper White, Darling Doodles DP
