Elephants never forget!

But I guess I do, I haven't posted for MONTHS!  But I'm back, and today I'm going to share with you cards and projects we've made over the past few months.  A little late, but I hope you'll enjoy them as much as we enjoyed making them.

In September we moved to a new location, Trinity Lutheran Church in Arkdale.  It provides us with plenty of room to spread out, great lighting and access to a kitchen.

Here are the cards and projects we made.



Fall is harvest time and what better card then one made using the new Perfectly Preserved Stamp Set and the Orchard Harvest DSP.

Stamp Sets:  Perfectly Preserved, Itty Bitty Banners
Papers:  Orchard Harvest DSP, More Mustard, Lucky Limeade, Early Espresso, and Very Vanilla Card Stock
Ink:  More Mustard, Lucky Limeade, Early Espresso Classic Stampin' Pad
Tools:  Big Shot, Windows Frames Framelits, Woodgrain TIEF, Festive Paper Piercing Pack, Stampin' Pierce Mat, Small Oval Punch

Our next card featured the Orchard Harvest Designer Fabric and Stampin' Up's new Jumbo Sticky Rounds.

 
Everyone knows I don't like to sew.  I was really excited to show everyone how easy it is to make the rosette for this card.  The Jumbo Sticky Rounds make it easy and fun to complete.  Just twist and turn and twist and turn and . . . . WOW, what a cool looking card!

This cute Post-It holder was a hit with everyone!


With the holidays right around the corner, the Scentsational Season Stamp Set and Festival of Prints DSP was perfect for this project.  This would make a great gift for anyone.  I like to keep one in my purse.

Karen Sherrell was our hostess for the September workshop.  I made her this fall wreath as a thank you gift.


I used the Orchard Harvest DSP, Big Shot, #2 scallop and Autumn Accents dies to make the wreath.  She can either hang it on the wall or use it as a center piece.  Thanks Karen for a delicious dinner and all your support and help.
