Stampin' Up! Hostess Clubs- Last chance for Fall Clubs!

HI friends,
With the Holidaze approaching I thought I would offer one more round of Hostess Clubs.
This is how it will work.
We start in September and go through December, so 4 months.
You are required to order $37.50 in retail each month.
Stampin' Up! adds the shipping and tax*
Each month 1 person in the "club" gets to be Hostess and chose $25 in product of their choice. There are also some darling Hostess only items you can chose from that you can not otherwise get!
YOU will get a Catalog and YOU will get to be a Hostess one month out of the 4!
* reshipping pay pal added to the total.
I would like to start on September 1st but need 4 people to join in on the fun!!!
Who is in? First come, first serve to the first 4!!!

Simply Sunday Soup on Tuesday!

HI friends, I like to post recipes on Sundays but I made this soup today and thought I would share. Do you believe we had 77 degrees today in Dallas!!

This is actually a Weight Watchers 0 point Soup but I omitted the frozen green beans and added tomatoes, hamburger and pasta. Not sure how many points but it is still a good and hearty lo-cal meal.




Recipe: cook carrots and one onion in olive oil. Add 4 cloves of garlic. Add 1 teaspoon of Kosher Salt, 1 t of Oregano and 1 t of dried Basil.  Add half a cabbage and 6 cups of broth. I used both chicken and beef broth. Add 2 Tablespoons of Tomato Paste. That is it. I also added a can of tomatoes and some cooked hamburger and macaroni!

Stampin' Up! Another favorite Convention Card

I really liked this card a lot. I came home and ordered the In Color Patterned Paper so I could make this card! They used it on the blue banner part.

Stampin' Up Frightening Feline

Hi friends,
I got an order in last night and went right to work, well play, with my new Frightening Feline Stamp Set.
I whipped up this card really quickly while my hubby was whipping up dinner.



I used Howlstooth & Scaringbone Designer paper along with Basic Black and Tangerine Tango Card Stock.
I cut around the edge of the cat and adorned him with our new little sticky googlie eyes (#127539)!! Basic Gray stitched ribbon is used.

There are 6 layers of paper on the card. I love lots of layers.
Thanks for stopping by!
If you wish to order this stamp set it is item #128105 and is only $8.95!! 

Also I am playing along on Terry's site for her blog hop!

Stampin' Up! Halloween Fun Blog Hop!

HI friends,
Here is an extra post today. I made this card last night for my friend Terry's blog hop.


I got the design concept from a Christmas card I saw on Pinterest from a Mojo Monday sketch.
To follow me on Pinterest click HERE! 


I used our adorable Howlstooth and Scaringbone Designer Paper, Tangerine Tango, Crumb Cake and Basic Black card stock. I distressed the edges of the top two layers and then inked them with Soft Suede Ink.
The stamp set is one we got at Convention from Momento Mall. I punched it with our Postage Stamp Punch


I hope you like!
