Motivational Monday Challenge - Nov. 30th, 2009

Good evening all!! IT SNOWED TODAY!! I am usually NOT a snow enthusiast but being that tomorrow is Dec 1st and we are so close to Christmas it was actually kind of welcomed.....at least by me :) I have just returned from the Dentist's office after having a couple of fillings done so I am going to make this one short and sweet.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it is.........a "RECIPE" of sorts! Here is what I want to see this week......

Clean, Simple, Elegance.......THANK YOU theme and the color Bermuda Bay used somewhere! I don't care if it's ink, paper or embellies or if you keep it Monochromatic like I did.....just don't forget to combine your ingredients for this Stampin' delish recipe challenge!

CLEAN.........SIMPLE..........ELEGANT........THANK YOU.........BERMUDA BAY.........

Easy, right?!?!?

Here is my card.....

On your mark........get set..........STAMP!!!

P.S. Don't forget to leave a link to YOUR creation in the comments section of this post to be entered in the draw for this week's prize!!

P.P.S. If you don't have Bermuda Bay.....feel free to replace it with a close comparison....like Tempting Turquoise for example.....:)

Thanks for Stampin' with Tess :)

Motivational Monday challenge WINNER!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS to Heather who played along with my Motivational Monday Challenge last week and made this fabulous Monochromatic Masculine Birthday card....

Here is your prize......just for playing along! Enjoy this fabulous mounted but never used stamp set, "For a Friend!" I can't wait to see what kinds of goodies you make with it!!

Join me again tomorrow when I will post another Motivational Monday challenge! You will have all week to finish the challenge and upload a link to a picture of your creation!

Thanks for Stampin' with Tess!!

Card & Bookmark = LOVE.....

I found a tutorial on SCS awhile ago that I have been drooling over and finally gave it a try this past weekend while my friend Heather was over for some scrappy time! I am soooo in love with this card I think I might just make everyone I know one for Christmas :) Give it a try!! And don't forget to let me see what you have done with it!!

Here is my card.........AND bookmark!!!!!!

Motivational Monday Challenge - Nov. 23rd, 2009

Hello ladies!! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I sure did, I was locked up in my scrap room the whole time!! w000t! Nothing better than a scrappy weekend!!

Here is a little Motivational Challenge for you, for Monday! Please remember to post links to pictures in the comments section if you choose to play along! There is a fabulous prize up for grabs this time, so get your stamps out and your thinking caps on..........and STAMP your Monday evening away :)

Your mission, should you choose to accept it.......is a Monochromatic Masculine card!!! What the heck is monochromatic you ask?!?! Simple.....choose 1 color....maybe green, or blue for the masculine theme and add in a neutral or two (like Whisper white or Kraft) and you are set!! Remember that you can use different shades of your selected color.....so maybe Night of Navy and Bashful blue do something for you! The main goal is just ONE color......with a neutral or two thrown in for some POP!

Take a peak at my samples, and you will see what I mean!

Remember you have until 10PM MST on Friday to upload a link to your project! I will announce the winner on Sunday November 29th and post the next MM challenge on Monday Nov 30th!! It is also not necessary to use Stampin Up stuff either, if you don't have any! And for you Scrapbookers.......feel free to dazzle me with a page or an altered item for that matter! The only rules are MONOCHROMATIC and MASCULINE!!

On your marks...............get set........................STAMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Halloween!!

We don't really celebrate Halloween at our house anymore now that my son is too old to go trick-or-treating, but I joined a fun swap on SCS that had me making Halloween cards tonight! It was called a Grab Bag swap and how it works is each person makes up a card kit, with a theme of there choice and mails one kit out to each person in the group. We then have to make 1 card for 3 people in the group and mail it out to them! It's a fun way to see and play with some new papers and/or stamp sets you might not already have!

This month the Hostess selected a Halloween theme and here are the cards I made using the supplies she sent me:

It was great to spend some time in my stamp room tonight :) I really need to get down there more often and PLAY!!

Feel free to link me to any pictures of the fun Halloween things YOU are making these season! I would love to see them :)

Reserve your spot in my Scrapbook Club now!!

Hi ladies!! I am so excited to be starting up my first Scrapbooking club, and I am going to be doing this a little differently from my Stamp Club! This club will be run as a NON-COMITTMENT club, and will run for a period of six months. Here is the info:

SCRAPBOOK CLUB (1st night to be determined):


Once a month we will get together and make a 2 page 12x12 Scrapbook layout, while learning different techniques and using different products from the Stampin` Up! catalogue.


8 spots available


Only $20 each month with the option of purchasing from the catalogue.(Cost includes all supplies, except adhesive, refreshments and door prizes)


Club members who place an order on the club night of $40 or more before shipping and handling) receive the class for free, but NO PURCHASE is neccessary!


If the sales for that club amounted over $200, I will put all the names of those who ordered into a hat and draw one name and the winner will collect the hostess benefits for that month's club night! (A free stamp set and a minimum of $20.00 in free product of your choice, from the catalogue.)


If YOU place an order of $200 or more on your own on the night of the club you receive the hostess benefits for your order that evening (FREE hostess stamp set and applicable FREE merchandise rewards). This means that you can gather orders from your friends and family and bring them to class and if your total is over $200 in merchandise - you receive the benefits!


You also receive your own copy of the 2009/2010 Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalogue (filled with tons of ideas!).


***Please do not bring photos with you to class (you can simply add them after class)***

If you would like to reserve your spot in this fun club, please email me at stampwithtess@hotmail.com to reserve your spot!

Also, please note that if you are out of town, I would still love to have you join! I could easily send you your supplies and directions through the mail, and if you are interested in ordering (anywhere in CANADA) we can talk via email to make arrangements! So don't let distance stop you!!

I am so glad I am finally starting to feel better! I am just sorry I had to miss coffee with Brandy on Wednesday, and then "COFFEE" with Mel on Thursday too! I had a really nice evening with DH tonight though :) Time to enjoy another weekend, that is going to fly by WAY to fast......and then back-to-school MONDAY!! w00t!!


Here is another one of the cards that the girls will be making at Stamp club on Saturday night!

Happy Stampin' :)

Stamp Club - August - Project 1!

Happy Tuesday Night! I am off to bed right away, but just wanted to post a set of card that I made tonight! This is actually the card my new stamp club group will be making on Saturday night, along with 2 variations that I made to go with it :) I think I like the one with the More Mustard added in....let me know what you like best!

Here is the card that my stamp club girls will be making on Saturday night:


I was inspired by a card that I saw on SCS for this one, using the Trendy Trees set. The colors are Old Olive and Whisper White.

Good afternoon ladies! I hope you all had a great weekend :) I know I did! I spent Friday night at a crop, at my Local Scrapbook Store with some friends, had a lazy Saturday and baked my husband a cheesecake on Sunday :) Monday morning came way too fast, if you ask me!!

Here is a card that I made at the crop on Friday night...

Happy Monday! Thanks for stopping by!!

Simply Adorned

Our Simply Adorned line beautifully combines the best of two worlds: stamping and jewelry! We designed our Simply Adorned charms to hold a creation you design yourself, making your jewelry truly unique.


Simply Adorned charms are lockets--they open up so you can insert your custom stamped image. The Charming stamp set, along with Rub-Ons, glitter, ribbons, and other embellishments, can help you create your unique charm insert. And don't forget that you can embellish the chains with ribbon, felt flowers . . . the possibilities are endless! The frame surrounds tempered beveled glass on the front and flat glass on the back. Because there's glass on both sides of the charm, you can display an image on one side or both. You can create a custom heirloom piece that you'll never want to change, or you can swap artwork in and out, depending on your mood and your wardrobe.


And although we designed Simply Adorned charms to be jewelry, they also make delightful key chains or Christmas tree ornaments. Insert a stamped image or photo of your loved ones, tie a ribbon through the clasp, and you're done!


Your customers--paper-crafters and noncrafters alike--will love the look of Simply Adorned and appreciate how easy it is to create custom jewelry. When you wear your own Simply Adorned necklace with artwork you created yourself, be prepared for questions about where you got it!
Our Simply Adorned line includes nickel-plated charms in three sizes and anodized stainless steel chains in two lengths.

Beginning September 1st and running until November 30th, if you host a qualifying workshop or party, you will be able to purchase 1 item from the 2009 Holiday Mini for just $14.00!!
