Lattice Edge

Hey there Bloggers! It's Wednesday and that means only 2 more days to go until the weekend. And I can't wait for Saturday, because my favorite team the Calgary Roughnecks will be playing for the Western Division Championships in lacrosse. 

Today's card is one that we made at our April Stamper's Club meeting. It has a Lattice Fold on the inside edge and then the lattice was inked. It looks very cool in person and is actually really easy to make. 

Enjoy!

Hey there Bloggers! Hope you are all doing well and had a good weekend. 

I heard some sad news for the industry last week.... Creative Memories parent company has filed for Chapter 11. This is apparently the second time in five years. It is too bad when scrapbooking companies are unable to sustain themselves. There has also been a merger within the scrapbooking world recently too with Tonic Studios and Purple Cows.

And in other news.... Stampin' Up! will be announcing the 2013 retired list on April 24. So if you don't receive my emails, make sure that you sign up so that you can receive a copy of the list as soon as it is released. And don't forget that these items will sell out very quickly so place your orders immediately.

Today's project is a card that we made for Stamper's Club last week. We used the new Designer Typeset Photopolymer stamp set. The card we made was actually CASE'D from Jenny

Try It Tuesday!

Hey there Bloggers! Hope your week is going well so far. Well, my cabinets are in, the counter top is attached. Now I am just waiting patiently for the doors. Ha, if my husband could hear me now, he would say that the last thing I am is patient! I have been giving him a hard time lately because I keep coming up with new things I want him to do, and he is not appreciating the "oh this should only take you a few minutes..." He says that I don't fully understand how long it takes to do things or appreciate the fact that he does have an actual job to do too. So, I am waiting for the doors...and I picked up these crates a few weeks ago and I just thought of a use for one of them, so I need him to quickly spray it (he is a cabinet maker and finisher). Then he is working on a table and chairs set that I picked up for a steal on a swap n buy site to re-finish. Oh, and I forgot the drawers that he is making for me, that I use to store my cards ( I have 4 already but I need a few more. I will have to post a pic of them sometime). I love my husband, tee hee!

If you haven't seen my re-organization for the new year, you can check out my post here.

So today's card is my Try It Tuesday card. Today I am trying some of the new products that I ordered from the Spring Catalogue. I hope you like it! This card started out as this Mojo Monday sketch and took a definite turn from what I was expecting it to look like!!
