Stampin' Up! 2012-13 Sneak Peek #4

Sneaky Peeky #4
I just love this Floral District Paper and Besty's Blossom's stamp set. I also used Layered Labels Stamp Set
The colors are just so vibrant in this paper pack

Here is the card that Tobi and Lisa made. We did not use the Layered Labels on theirs. Lisa is blind and look what a great job she did!!

Stampin' Up! Tobi and Lisa come over to play!

 Oh what a fun day we had!  The other day I went to lunch with my friend Lauren and her daughter Tobi and friend Lisa. On the way home, Tobi asked me if she could come over and make some cards. Even though I didn't have anything prepared to make I said sure and it was so rewarding. Lisa is totally visually impaired and Tobi has special needs. These girls did a great job! Tobi helped me get things set up and then she helped me score the cards. Lisa taught Tobi how to go over the card with a bone folder. Lisa did an incredible job stamping, it was almost as if she could see what I did, but unfortunately she can't. It was very rewarding and I hope to do it again soon. Afterwards we went and got a snow cone and went to a park.

Simply Sunday~ Chop House Burgers! Oh My!

Oh my! A burger with the inside filled with slowly cooked, chopped brisket, with a special house steak sauce, smoked cheese and applewood bacon from Chop House Burgers! Now don't drool on your computer screen!

Yes, this is what I am referring to.
This photo is driving me nuts as I post!
On April 16th Diners, Drive Ins and Dives had a show about a hamburger joint in Arlington, Texas. 

We were getting ready to go out for Chinese food but after watching the show and trying not to lick the tv screen, we opted to go to Chop House Burger in Arlington,Texas. Now this is a 45 minute drive, mind you but we had to go. Well since the show aired that day, they were mobbed. They were letting one more family in and we let a lady celebrating her birthday go in and decided to come back another day. Last night was that day and it was just as good as Guy Fieri said it was. You see, Guy visited their place back in December, 2011.

Don't forget the Onion Rings- a HUGE basket for only $3 and enough to feed the family but we got 2 and a basket of fries. These were the best rings I ever had!

The salad is for my little girl. I don't call her a Vegetarian, she is a "Pigatarian" as the only "meats" she will eat are bacon, hot-dogs and pepperoni. She chose a Wedge Salad and it was huge.

Now to top things off, they have a special little bakery and we indulged in some Lemon Ricotta cookies. Sorry no photo but they were so soft and moist and lemony!


I know most of my readers are from all over the US but if you know someone in this area, tell them to stop on by here!
http://www.chophouseburgers.com/
1700West Park Place Drive, #116 Arlington, Texas 76013 817-459-3700

They were voted #2 Best Burger but in my eyes, they are #1. Now I want one for breakfast, right now! Also, just as the reviews say, the service is wonderful and friendly and very attentive. You feel like you are at a high star restaurant!


Ok, well this girl is off to "Pin" this on Pinterest and post of Facebook. Hoping you have a nice Sunday and thanks for stopping by my Simply Sunday post.


Please come back during the week for views of some more cards. None of them will be as delicious looking as this hamburger!


Hugs, Barb

Stampin' Up! 2012-13 Sneak Peek #3

How about another Sneaky Peeky!

I'm loving this Floral District Paper and Layered Labels Stamp set

 I also cut part of the label out with the oval punch and then added it back on. Our Framelits that match are so much fun to use!

Ooops photo is upside down but hopefully you get the idea that I decorated the inside! Backround card stock is Rich Razzleberry but it appears darker in the photo

Stampin' Up! 2012 Sneak Peek 2 Betsy's Blossoms

I just love this stamp set from our new Catalog. Here is another Sneaky Peeky from our 2-12-13 Catalog with the stamp set called Betsy's Blossoms.

It is on page 72 and only $21.95

I also used Itty Bitty Banners on page 134 for $11.95 along with our new Framelits called Bitty Banners Framelits on page 195

Here I made a Thank You, a For You and a Happy Birthday card all from the two sets. I used our new In Color called Rasberry Ripple for the card's background. It is as delicious as it sounds!

I stamped the inside with the large flower. These new inks are awesome!

 The background on the Raspberry Ripple is stamped with the larger flower here under the Whisper White paper for a tone on tone effect......

Want a free catalog so you can see these items? Either order $50 in May to get one totally for Free or I can send you one for free if you pay the $5.50 shipping! Just email me at snowmanlover too at gmail dot com

Stampin' Up! Floral District Meets Betsy's Blossoms

Come join me as I play along with Terry at A la Card Monkey and over at Friday's Mash Up. This week's challenge was to place three panels across the front and stamp something in the middle. Right away I decided to use my new Floral District (Sneaky Peeky) Paper and my new Betsy's Blossom's Stamp set which I adore!  I set mine off on the beautiful and rich color, Rich Razzleberry and made the three panels for Floral District. I stamped both the front and inside with the birdie from Betsy's Blossoms. Ribbon is Lucky Limemade, a 2011-12 In Color. I hope you enjoy and check out their sites.
This is my Sneaky Peeky #1! with more to come all week long so please stop by daily this week!

At first I did not stamp the top but then I went back and stamped it. I LOVE this stamp set! Lately I am into tone on tone with this Betsy stamp set.

This is the sketch- now you can make one too!  

Remember, order $50 in May in Retail and get a FREE Catalog!

This was supposed to be my Mother's Day workshop but we turned it into generic cards. Here they are with their finished cards and hard at work.

I only had two but we had a lot of fun and it was really fun on a weekday!!
