Last night we made our Nature Walk Shadow Boxes and as by request have taken pictures of them.  Forgot to take Amanda's box before she left, sorry Amanda.

First I would like to say thank you to UStamp with Dawn and Friends!! Oh My Word!! Edition 2011.  This site has some very talented ladies on it and I have CASEd this from one of them, Nancy Horn, thanks so much Nancy!  This is our class project for Monday night.  I can't wait to see what my talented ladies do with this shadow box.

Sabrina, Alecia and BJ with Botanical Gazette  Isn't it amazing how different they turned out using the same DSP?

Shirley's with Elegant Soiree

I had them order their DSP they wanted to use ahead of time.  Each clock was a thing of beauty and all so different.  I know some of these ladies plan on making more clocks.

Very Vintage Nature Walk CD Folder Album

I am so excited to share this album with you.  I am giving a class on this album on March 27th.  Stampin' Up! has done an excellent job on the Nature Walk stamp set and the matching DSP Botanical Gazette.  I believe that this combination is my all-time favorite since I became a demonstrator in August 2009.
When I first became a new demonstrator, Patty Bennett had a free tutorial on her blog for a CD Folder Album.  I have since modified that tutorial to fit my CD Folders and customized it to my own tastes.  Thanks to Patty for helping me along my way.  Here are more pictures:

Just love butterflies, birds and especially bees since we have eleven bee hives at our house.  Now if they would just come out with a hosta stamp I would be in seventh heaven since we have a hosta business with almost 100 varieties of hosta.
I forgot on the Watercolor Wonder Crayon Wall Art to mention that my favorite daughter, Luella (also my only daughter, LOL) taught me the techniques I used to make the wall art.  She is a very talented young lady and I am waiting for her to get moved permanently so that she can join my team...I need to start thinking of a team name...do you have any suggestions?  I would love to have you as a member of my team also, and now is the perfect time to join our Stampin' Up! team of Independent Demonstrators.  Through March 31st the New Demonstrator Starter Kit is 15% off and you also receive a Bonus Bundle worth $50 for FREE!  If you have been thinking about this, now is the time.  My team members will be trained by me and I will be happy to help you get started in this terrific career.  Stamping is my happy place and I would like to share that with you!  Click HERE to start your own business!

I am starting to get ready for my next card workshop on January 4th.  Don't forget that time is running out to order from the Holiday Mini Catalog.  I will be placing my final order for the catalog on Sunday evening, January 2nd.  If you are local, call or email me your order.  If you are long distance, click on my Stampin' Up! logo on the right and you can shop online 24/7 and have it delivered to your home.
This was the first card that I have ever made using a challenge.  The flower was made using the Kraft packing material out of Stampin' Up! delivery boxes!  You can not tell on this picture, but the flower is all shimmery and I will post a video next week showing you how I made it.
