Well!!! I am back! I have had a busy two weeks with finishing up Saleabration and getting ready for Easter!!! We had Ray's family here for Easter and I think there were around 36 that joined us! I LOVE our Big family but it certainly can be chaotic sometimes!!!! Sunday was a wonderful day! The weather was gorgeous,  Ray & I started the day out early and helped out at church with the free breakfast that was offered to the community and then had a wonderful time of worship and reflection on the true meaning of the day! Our Risen Lord! Then came home  to spend  the day with family!  Sunday went by so fast and did the rest of the week! And now it is Wednesday!!! I think I am finally catching  up so I wanted to share the projects that I am offering at my stamping events this month! I am also listing the dates and times, if you want to join me just send me an email and I will add you to the list!!! I have some AWESOME projects planned!

Now for today's projects

This card was made using the Fresh Vintage Saleabration set.  I used Very Vanilla, Poppy Parade, Lucky Limeade, Everyday Enchantment DSP. Matching Ink used was Poppy Parade and Lucky Limeade, Soft Suede, Plus the new Heart framelits for the Big shot was used!

This card was created by the AWESOME Mary Fish! I just love her work! She used the Elementary elegance Saleabration Set and Very Vanilla , Peach Parfait Cardstock and the Everyday Enchantment DSP. Plus she used the New Adorning Accents Framelits and the Designer Frames and Stripes Embossing Folders for the Big Shot. And she finished off the project with the new large pearls and some crochet ribbon! I LOVE IT!!!!

And I saved my very favorite for last! this gorgeous gift idea of  an adorable basket and matching cards! I personally think that this is a GREAT idea for Mother's Day or End of the year Teacher's Gift or  Secret Sister Gift. The card box was made using the Whisper White, Pool Party and the Everyday Enchantment DSP. The vintage wallpaper embossing folder for the Big Shot was used on both the box and the cards. As well as, the scallop circle dies. The blossom and eyelet border and lace ribbon border punch were used and then the cards and box were finished off with the Pool Party Ruffled Ribbon and White Satin Ribbon!!!  And as an FYI, I will be adding a Big Shot Class to my monthly class schedule for the next quarter ( April- June), where we will be making fun projects like this one!!!!

Hope you enjoyed these ideas! Check back on Monday for some more of my Crafty Pics of the Day!

Time is running out, there are only 9 more days until the end of Saleabration. This is the biggest sales event that Stampin Up offers all year! But don't worry there is still time to attend one of my events or place your saleabration order!  I am also going to be sharing several GREAT project ideas using the Sprinkled Expression Set from the Saleabration Catalog with you today!  

This beautiful card was made by a dear friend of mine Lee Conrey. Lee used Whisper White & Wisteria Wonder Cardstock. Wisteria Wonder Ink and the polka dot folder for the Big Shot along with the designer paper from the Sweet Shoppe Suite and some white organdy ribbon and the saying in the set is my favorite!

Another simple but elegant card done with the same set. This time I used Whisper White  and Blushing Bride cardstock , The Elegant Bouquet Folder for the Big Shot, Blushing Bride Pleated Ribbon and the flower punch from the Itty Bitty Trio along with some pearls. I think this card would make a gorgeous baby card!

This card uses brighter colors. I used Lucky Limeade, Blushing, Bride and Whisper White Cardstock along with a strip of Designer Series paper from the Twitterpated Collection. Rich Razelberry Ink and White Organza Ribbon along with the Extra Large Oval Punch

And last but not least I found this adorable stack of boxes on Stampin Connection. They were made using Bashful Blue, Real Red and Pretty In Pink Cardstock, Pretty In Pink Polka Dotted Ribbon and the cute fabric flower on top was made using the Candy Cane Fabric Collection using the Big Shot and a button from the Brights Collection and the tag was stamped with the cute saying from the set!

Hope you enjoy these projects!!! Check back soon!

What a busy day! But I am not closing the studio until I post and share a project with you! Wednesday's are usually my slower day but not today! I had some computer work to do and then Sam was less than cooperative with finishing his schoolwork! But I finally made it to Bible study and got renewed to finish the week! So here is another pretty card made using the Fresh Vintage SAB set! I love the color combo on this one as well!  I love all Stampin' Up's colors and  how they coordinate!  

The supplies used on this project are Basic Black, Whisper White, and Melon Mambo Cardstock with Melon Mambo, Always Artichoke, and Basic Black ink and some White Bakers Twine! Very simple but very elegant! 

Let's all I have for today!!! Check back tomorrow for another fun idea!
