Birthday Memories Product Suite

Hi!

So here's a recap of my creations using the Birthday Memories Product Suite which includes the stamp set and coordinating framelits, designer series paper, ribbons and crepe paper balloon shape embellishments!!  If you haven't fallen in love yet, there's more samples on Pinterest!  My fellow Events Council Members also presented their version of the same topic at the other locations where events were held!  For a stamp set that I was afraid to touch and what I had originally thought was crazy busy dsp ... I absolutely LOVE this bundle and what you can do with it!  Imagine what you can do with and how it will change when you mix it up with different dsp!

Thanks for strolling along with me!  Here's a recap.  If you are just starting here, you can review the past couple weeks of posts for larger images of individual projects!

Birthday Memories Product Suite
Stamp Set, Framelits, DSP, Coordinating Cardstock, Ribbon & Embellishments

These were the CLASS PROJECTS from my business strategy presentation

Almost another dozed original samples featuring the product suite
I like to create clusters that can be broken down into mini classes too - do you do that?

My DISPLAY BOARD at San Diego, On Stage, April 2017
The text pages on Pumpkin Pie cardstock are the business breakdown and instructions

Thank You again and I hope you have enjoyed my displays!  Sometimes it is so hard to create original artwork, as in this case before the catalog launched and before Pinterest had been populated with others' creations.  But for me it always feels good to look up at the end and see what I came up with!  Don't get me wrong, I see, pin, and like just as much as you do and often will recreate and CASE what I see too - nothing wrong with that at all!

Off to create with something new today!!  I have another swap card to create for the incentive trip.  So off to decide what new toys to put to work!!

Hugs
Rhonda

Thanks For Everything

Hello!

I just had a great few days over the weekend with my older brother who was in town for a business conference and then he extended his stay with us for a few extra days.  He is the first of my immediate family I have been able to see since being diagnosed with cancer, it was just great to get a hug from your big brother!  I can't wait to see my folks and younger brother when we travel back to Michigan for my oldest nephews wedding, but that's not until January!  And Dave's folks are coming for a trip in September so it'll be super nice to have them here as well!  We traveled right after my diagnosis to Omaha and visited Dave's sister Cyndi, so she was the first to give me hugs!  As I sit here after dropping Steve off at the airport it kind of just hits ya, family is family - just something about it.  I love and feel loved so much by so many friends for which I am truly blessed, and yes we do say and mean it that some friends are like family ... but there's a little something extra about family being family.  I'm sad he's gone and find my eyes teared up giving him a hug goodbye, but cancer has taught me to set aside the tears of sadness and turn them into tears of joy for the opportunity to have had the time with him!  So putting on a smile and drying my eyes!!

Anyhow, I know you're here for the pretty stamped stuff but I just wanted to share a little bit of life too!

I think these next couple of posts will probably close out the samples that I created for my On Stage presentation in San Diego in April.  So ... we have had a party banner, invitations, and treats so far - what else?  Why of course we need the all important THANK YOU's!!

Here's one version!

This card is one of our Whisper White Notecards and Envelopes.  I used a strip of DSP on both the top edge of notecard and the envelope to tie them into the same party theme!  The notecard has a few images stamped and I used the watercolor pencils to color them in.  Probably added some Wink of Stella as well!  The Thanks is from All Things Thanks stamp set, stamped in Pacific Point ink to coordinate with the 1/4" Stitched Edge ribbon as well  Cut out those circle layers with out Circle Layering Framelits.  Tah-dah!!

Stop by tomorrow for a second Thank You option!
