I have heat embossed the image several times and then cracked the image. Isn't the crotchet doily pretty.

I was very productive over the weekend and came home with a pile of layouts to share.<br /><br /><br /><br />I had a great time playing with my mists. I haven't had a chance to use them a lot at home so it was an opportunity too good to miss.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-m65iRJrdZEc/TXXawcQvG4I/AAAAAAAAAfg/wkUf3i3nlCs/s1600/DSCF2702.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581607838950562690" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-m65iRJrdZEc/TXXawcQvG4I/AAAAAAAAAfg/wkUf3i3nlCs/s400/DSCF2702.JPG" /></a> I loved the great colours in these Bo Bunny papers and the circle patterns were just crying to be cut out and layered.<br /><br /><br /><br />I have used my Stampin' Up! border punches too (Scallop Edge and Scallop Trim). I went to camp with a massive box of punches and used just about very one of them.<br /><br /><br /><br />Okay, I have heaps more to share over the next few days.<br /><br /><br /><br />Happy Scrapping<br /><br />Lisa<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-1071160888387553560?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-11831398348229976282011-03-08T18:15:00.005+11:002011-03-08T18:28:13.622+11:00I am back from another fantastic weekend scrapping with friends at The Dag Sheep Station at Nundle.

I love the period between Christmas and New Year so many pyjama days and nowhere to be at any given time. So relaxing.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I just wanted to share a little gift I made for my hubby's brother and his lovely partner. I used this year's Christmas photo of my boys to decorate a calendar for them.</div><div> </div><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 285px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555131706749853314" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TRfK2t1VnoI/AAAAAAAAAdE/AJG3jE28Wzc/s400/DSCF2380.JPG" /></div><div>I picked these calendars up for a few dollars at one of the cheap shops in town. They originally have a little whiteboard on top and I have used sticky strip to attach a little layout over the top and then repunched the hanging hole with my trust crop-a-dile. I added an eyelet as well for strength.</div><div> </div><div>I used my Sizzix to cut out the numbers for the year.</div><div> </div><div>This month's challenge at <a href="http://tanjawestwood.typepad.com/stampamemory/2010/12/gifted-challenge-challenge-17.html">Stamp-a-memory</a> is to scrapbook about a gift or make a gift so I think this fits the criteria.</div><div> </div><div>Thanks for stopping by.</div><div> </div><div>Lisa</div><div> </div><div><em>Supplies:</em></div><div> </div><div><em>DSP - Celebrations</em></div><div><em></em> </div><div><em>Real Red Cardstock</em></div><div><em></em> </div><div><em>Pacific Point ribbon (retired)</em></div><div><em></em> </div><div><em>Photo Corner punch</em></div><div><em></em> </div><div><em>Sizzix and Timeless Type Alphabet</em></div><div><em></em> </div><div><em>Sticky Strip and Glue Dots</em></div><div> </div><div>. </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-3782972924734149895?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-90135124311294099842010-12-09T15:34:00.006+11:002010-12-09T15:44:14.151+11:00Today I have a project to share with you from my $30 Club.

I have used Chocolate Chip and Kiwi Kiss cardstock and of course the Top Note die (love it).</div><br /><div></div><div>To make the cute border I have used the Curly Label punch and only punched off a small section and worked my way along the edge. This is a great alternative for a boys page when the scallop and eyelet border look a little too pretty.</div><div></div><div><br />So as you can see I have used a lot of my retired stash on this layout. </div><div> </div><div>How about you, do you have a pile of retired products you haven't used.

I always save my diecut papers when I buy them to use as templates. I have used one of these templates to make a Real Red photo mat. I doodled around the edge with my Basic Black marker.<br /><br />I have punched circles from the Bella Rose paper with various circle punches (I think I used every circle punch I own.<br /><br />The title was stamped with the Big Deal Alphabet and trimmed out.<br /><br /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 246px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5547070192667310674" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TPsm81oXulI/AAAAAAAAAb4/EAOuYmztyNo/s320/266.JPG" /><br /><p>In the little frame I have used a definition from the Definitions set. The cute frame stamp is now retired (and I cannot for the life of me think of the name of the stamp set). I journalled on white strips and adhered these to the layout.</p><p>I hope you have enjoyed this little look at my last scrapbook club.</p><p>Happy stamping</p><p>Lisa</p><p><em>All materials Stampin' Up! unless otherwise stated.</em></p><p> </p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-2846331143849958858?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-21386160141820017022010-12-04T17:31:00.006+11:002010-12-04T17:51:50.279+11:00<div>Hi there, </div><div><br />We have had a hugely busy day today in the Johnston household. It started out bright and early with young Mr Sam waking up at 5.30 (I know!! and I am so not a morning person). We then spent the next few hours waiting anxiously to see if cricket would be cancelled or not.</div><div><br />Thankfully it wasn't and Zac's Under 12 team won their grandfinal match. I was so excited for the boys. They have worked hard and really deserved their win. Zac bowled really well and got two wickets with the last two balls of his over but then didn't get to come back on so we will never know if he would have got his hat-trick. Yes I am a very proud mumma.</div><div><br />Ben's team (under 9s) only had two people in their opposition turn up so they had a muck around game for the last of the season. Ben has really enjoyed his first season of cricket and he has improved so much.</div><div><br />After cricket it was home for a few hours to prepare for Ben's 9th birthday party which was at the Indoor Sports Centre ...so yes more running around and sweaty boys.

My computer has died (again!!). My poor old DH had already rebuilt it once this year after some very nasty virus issues and this time around there was no reviving the poor old thing. So I now have a brand spanking new laptop which I absolutely love but we are still trying to retrieve my old files and pictures etc that were stored on the old computer.</div><div><br /></div><br /><div>To top it all off my camera died when we were on holidays last month and it has only just returned from the repairer. I was very lost without a camera. I don't think I realised just how often I used it.</div><div><br /> </div><div>But the good thing is that it is back and I can now share my projects with you again. </div><div><br /> </div><div>So firstly I have some layouts from the last Scrapbook Club I ran. I will share one each day from our last club so be sure to check back tomorrow.</div><br /><div></div><div></div><div></div><br /><div>The first layout is one of my favourites using Bella Rose Designer Series paper and the A Rose is a Rose Stamp Set (both of which are now retired).</div><br /><div><br /> </div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 211px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5544841826296200930" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TPM8Q2Ac_uI/AAAAAAAAAaY/86x_6Of3HjI/s400/Cherish.JPG" /><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>We did a lot of stamping, cutting out and layering with the rose embellishments. We also used border punches and I have added in a cute hat pin and pearls from the Pretties Kit.</div><div> </div><div> </div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5544844768275960818" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TPM-8FvFk_I/AAAAAAAAAag/0eFfgyUeX7E/s320/252.JPG" /><br /><div> </div><div><div>I am currently taking signups for my 2011 Scrapbook Club. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>What is Scrapbook Club I hear you ask, well each club has 5 members and the club runs for 5 months. Each member agrees to place a minimum $60 order each month.</div><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Each member gets to be Hostess one month and receive the hostess benefits from our order which will be a minimum of a Level 1 Hostess Stamp Set and $30 to spend in the catalogue.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div>Each month we will make a 12x12 layout. There will be a small materials fee of $5 for the layout kit which is a bit different to my last club but it will enable us to add more embellishments to the pages we make.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div>I will also be offering the Club layouts as a monthly scrapbook class for non Club members at a cost of $20.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div>Scrapbook Club is a great way to add to your stamp collection, create some layouts for your album while learning new techniques and have a great time out with new and old friends each month.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>So be sure to contact me if you would like to join the 2011 Scrapbook Clubs.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div>Happy stamping</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div>Lisa</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-473563937981644212?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-41826947774305631622010-11-14T17:59:00.001+11:002010-11-14T18:00:32.585+11:00<p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_1CJ6qrHk-8?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_1CJ6qrHk-8?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" width="425" height="344" allowscriptaccess="never" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></object></p><p>Gorgeous, gorgeous song this.

I am really happy with the effect and will definately be using that again. The ink I have used is Night of Navy. The papers and embellishments are way old ones from my stash and it feels so good to have finally used them. The only fairly new item is the ticket that my Mum gave me a bunch of when I was admiring the collection she had (thanks Mum).</div><div> </div><div>Thanks for stopping by and don't forget you have until the end of the month to enter the challenges at Scrap the Boys.</div><div> </div><div>Cheers</div><div> </div><div>Lisa</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-3892095261929822623?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-64253545725966412892010-07-09T11:10:00.008+10:002010-07-09T11:37:54.890+10:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TDZ4vltNkwI/AAAAAAAAAYU/6DG91uA8sq0/s1600/Love+This+Girl.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 395px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5491709554595828482" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TDZ4vltNkwI/AAAAAAAAAYU/6DG91uA8sq0/s400/Love+This+Girl.jpg" /></a> <div><div></div><div></div><div>This is a page on my cute niece Nykola. It was going to be my entry to the Just Add Ink add stitching challenge but with all the computer issues I had it was never entered so I thought I would share it with you all today.</div><div><br />There are a couple of things I really love about this page. The first is the handstitched titled. It was very easy to do by stamping my title with the <em>Jumbo Outline</em> Stamp Set and then using my paper piercer to pierce holes for my stitching.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5491708593606864370" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TDZ33pvlrfI/AAAAAAAAAYM/Lc-noEFtPYI/s320/Love+this+Girl+detail+2.jpg" /></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>The second thing I love is the layered flowers. I used the <em>One of a Kind</em> stamp set and stamped with Rich Razzleberry ink on to a sheet of orchid paper from the Cottage Wall set of papers. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 299px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5491708586501042594" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TDZ33PRbcaI/AAAAAAAAAYE/FsI_PP4n21U/s320/Love+This+Girl+detail+1.jpg" /></div></div><div><br /></div><div></div><div>I also cut some leaves from one of the other sheets of paper and layered those in there as well. </div><div></div><div>The stitching around the edges was done with my paper piercer and white gel pen and yes it did take ages. I really need to dust off my sewing machine ...I had forgotten how much I like the look of stitching on my scrapbook pages.</div><div></div><div>I have used two of my new favourites with the Top Note Die and Timeless Type alphabet for my bigshot machine. I love love love that alphabet.</div><div></div><div>Some pearls from the Pretties Kit, Rich Razzleberry Ribbon and Rhinestone brads finish off the layout.</div><div></div><div>Now if you would like to get hold of the Big Shot for your own scrapbooking and cardmaking I have a special bundle deal available. </div><div></div><div></div><div>My <strong>Big Shot Bundle</strong> includes:</div><div></div><div>Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine</div><div>(includes standard cutting pads and multipurpose platform) $179.95</div><div></div><div>Top Note Die $42.95</div><div></div><div>Scallop Circle Bigz Die $37.95</div><div></div><div>Little Leaves Sizzlit Die $10.95</div><div></div><div>Embosslits die of your choice $21.95</div><div></div><div>Textured Impressions Embossing Folder of your choice <u>$15.95</u></div><div></div><div>Total $309.70</div><div></div><div>Plus Level 1 Hostess Set and $30 free product of your choice.</div><div></div><div><strong>You pay only $300 with free postage</strong>.</div><div></div><div>A payment plan of $100 per month is also available with the products being delivered after the last payment.</div><div></div><div>Contact me to order your Big Shot Bundle this month and I will also include a free cardmaking class using your new Big Shot machine.</div><div></div><div>Happy Stamping</div><div></div><div>Lisa </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-6425354572596641289?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-26437270111896525152010-07-07T18:12:00.004+10:002010-07-07T18:24:53.955+10:00<div> This week's challenge at <a href="http://just-add-ink.blogspot.com/2010/06/just-add-ink-24.html">Just Add Ink </a>is a sketch challenge.<br /><br /><div></div><br /><div>Here is the sketch:</div><div> </div><div> </div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 234px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5491074757763811602" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TDQ3ZjOgSRI/AAAAAAAAAX0/v-MwaysStsM/s320/JAI24.jpg" /><br /><div></div><div>My photo is a shocker and I will try and get a better one in the morning but the deadline is Midnight tonight so I didn't have a chance to wait for better light (or for the Crystal Effects to dry for that matter). So here is my entry:</div><div> </div><div> </div><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5491074749510953490" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TDQ3ZEe3qhI/AAAAAAAAAXs/y0apByS0Hh4/s320/Cherish+Always+Card.jpg" /></div><div> </div><div>The label holder is straight in real life...honest. The bird from the Always Stamp Set and the inside of the label holder have been covered in Crystal Effects for a bit of dimension and sparkle. Using it this way it would normally take a few hours to dry completely. Make sure you leave your card flat or the Crystal Effects will run with gravity (how do I know this you ask hmmm I may have had a little accident with it in the past).</div><div> </div><div>I have cut roses from one of the sheets of Bella Rose paper and the other flower is made from circles of various sizes cut from the Bella Rose pink paper. I have also stamped the script stamp from the Level 2 Hostess Set Rustic Rooster several times on a strip of pink Bella Rose paper and torn and inked the edges.</div><div> </div><div>The pearl in my flower centre is from the Pretties Kit and the label holder from our Styled Silver Hodgepodge. I tend to buy these things and then never use them because they are "so pretty". But I am making myself use them now and they do look much nicer on a card then sitting in a box where they won't be seen (wouldn't you agree??).</div><div> </div><div>So there you have it my not quite dry yet entry...make sure you stop by Just Add Ink and enter too..you have until midnight tonight.</div><div> </div><div>Thanks for visiting</div><div> </div><div>Lisa</div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-2643727011189652515?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-39961105926806290622010-07-01T20:22:00.003+10:002010-07-01T20:33:02.461+10:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TCxtBaN1lcI/AAAAAAAAAXk/r_YAMgyk-Ck/s1600/2step.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 271px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488881916842448322" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TCxtBaN1lcI/AAAAAAAAAXk/r_YAMgyk-Ck/s320/2step.jpg" /></a><br />This month Stampin' Up! have 20% off selected Two-step stampin' sets from our current catalogues - no limit, no minimum purchase required.<br /><br />The stamp sets featured in the main catalogue are:<br /><br />Loads of Love (page 39) usual price $39.95 sale price $31.96<br />Big Bold Birthday **(page 42) usual price $53.95 sale price $43.16<br />A Rose is a Rose ** (page 78) usual price $66.95 sale price $53.56<br />Playful Petals **(page 86) usual price $52.95 sale price $42.36<br />Cheep Talk (page 98) usual price $47.95 sale price $38.36<br />Wonderful favourites (page 115) usual price $39.95 sale price $31.96<br /><br />and from the Autumn/Winter Mini Catalogue:<br /><br />Tiny Tags (wood mount) usual price $38.95 sale price $31.16<br />Tiny Tags (clear mount) usual price $28.95 sale price $23.16<br />Cottage Garden (wood mount) usual price $32.95 sale price $26.36<br />Cottage Garden (clear mount) usual price $24.95 sale price $19.96<br /><br />** retiring stamp sets.<br /><br />Contact me today to place your order.<br /><br />Happy stamping<br /><br />Lisa<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-3996110592680629062?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-5306096156959093932010-07-01T14:30:00.004+10:002010-07-01T14:42:36.635+10:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TCwaxeYCPAI/AAAAAAAAAXc/yDr4Hx1BxVY/s1600/Christmas+in+July+Class+Overview.png"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 247px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488791483127577602" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TCwaxeYCPAI/AAAAAAAAAXc/yDr4Hx1BxVY/s320/Christmas+in+July+Class+Overview.png" /></a><br /><div>I have a cute class planned to celebrate Christmas in July this year.

The flower embellishments are made by layering different sized circles that have been punched from the paper, scrunched and inked. I have added some Felt flowers as well.<br /><br />The sentiment and leaves have been diecut with my new favourites Timeless Type and Little Leaves for the Big Shot.<br /><br />The Green scalloped circle is a Carousel Note from my stash of retired product.<br /><br /><br />Thanks for stopping by and don't forget the challenge is open till Midnight Wednesday so you still have time to enter.<br /><br />Happy Stamping<br /><br />Lisa<br /><br />Edited to add: My card was picked in the top 5 this week at Just Add Ink ....

So if there are colours you cannot live without (Close to Cocoa comes to mind) or inkpads you haven't purchased refills for it would be wise to start thinking about that now so you can spread your purchases out over the next few months and before stocks run out.</div><div></div><br /><div>The retiring colours are:</div><div> </div><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 171px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477616431103401586" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TARnH1fC3nI/AAAAAAAAAXM/hk5QlSZh5t8/s320/goodbye+colours.JPG" /></div><div> </div><div>Stampin' Up! have really planned the change out well and customers who have purchased Marker, Crayon and Pastel sets will be able to purchase the new colours to update their sets. More details on these options will be available closer to the release of the new catalogue.</div><div> </div><div>PLUS we will still have In Colours and the new good news is that they will now be available for two years. Five colours will be released each year. So the first year we will have five and the second 10 and the third year the first lot will be retired and new group released so there will always be 10 In Colours available. </div><div> </div><div>All in all, definately a change for the better and I cannot wait to get my hands on the new core colours.</div><div> </div><div>If you have any questions about the Colour Renovation or would like to place an order please do not hesitate to contact me.</div><div> </div><div>Happy stamping </div><div> </div><div>Lisa</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-1680487685288352431?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-40328482622750532202010-06-01T11:23:00.004+10:002010-06-01T11:31:30.730+10:00<div><div>Stampin' Up! have a fantastic promotion for us this month and I am sooo excited about it.</div><div> </div><br /><a href="http://www.stampinup.com/"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 130px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5477610997074124130" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/TARiLiJgXWI/AAAAAAAAAWs/pSUtFmpKg-s/s320/DealsOfTheWeek.jpg" /></a><br /><div></div><br /><div>This is the first time we have had this promotion in Australia.

The journalling reads:<br /><br /><em>This was Samuel’s first Easter and he was totally in awe of the shiny foil wrapped Easter Eggs. For the Easter break we camped at Lake Keepit and early Sunday morning the Easter Bunny left one of these eggs in Sam’s cot. Imagine my surprise when I woke up that morning and looked in his cot to see the chocolate egg still intact up one end of the cot and the foil wrapping rolled up in his fist. I have no idea how he managed to do it without breaking the egg (or the wrapping for that matter) but he was certainly pleased with his treasure.<br />April 2009 5 ½ months old<br /></em><br />Here is a close-up of the flowers and little chick from the A Good Egg Stamp Set.<br /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5443872052307428434" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S4yEyeh2BFI/AAAAAAAAARc/bpypHVPU1JI/s320/Yum+Detail+2.jpg" /> <div></div><br />I have cut flowers from my patterned paper and then used Build-a-brads with co-ordinating paper for the centres.

My husband and I joke that he only goes to School for the sporting opportunities.</div><br /><div></div><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 318px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441622594079329586" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S4SG6xnWjTI/AAAAAAAAAQU/Vb7CU_o8zy0/s320/Sports+Nut.jpg" /><br /><br />Most of my scrap pages have dimension but the ways I have added extra dimension to this page are:<br /><br /><br /><br />* I have heat embossed some of my images which adds some great depth.<br /><br /><br /><br />* I have also used Stampin' Dimensionals to pop up some of my squares on the layout.<br /><br /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441620045930002770" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S4SEmdBNeVI/AAAAAAAAAQM/HKVJw6QIHHY/s320/Sports+Nut+Detail+2.jpg" /><br /><br />* Ink the edges. I have used my Black Stazon ink to edge everything on the page including my photo. Swiping the edges of your photo with Black Stazon adds great depth (especially when you are not matting your photo).<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441620030637521362" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S4SElkDMudI/AAAAAAAAAQE/OmO-YwiwWFg/s320/Sports+Nut+Detail+1.jpg" /><br />I have gone for a bit of a grungy look with all the black ink on the page. I am not quite sure about all the crazy sponging around my title ...maybe it will grown on me. I traced around a template of a Top Note die from the Stampin' Up website using my Black Stampin' Write Journaller around my title as well. </p><p>I used some of the stamps from the Just Rugby and Just Cricket sets for a random border stamped with Black Stazon across the bottom of my page.

Once again I have used one of my sister-in-law Shelley Wendt's gorgeous photos, this time of my youngest niece Miss Briannah.<br /><br />Here is my entry:<br /><br /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 383px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439419040804122850" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3yyzF-gMOI/AAAAAAAAAPQ/bLh3bvqgpCk/s400/Miss+B+resize.jpg" /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I stamped and heat embossed a corner detail using the Frames with a Flourish Stamp set.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439415428842608338" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3yvg2XxVtI/AAAAAAAAAPI/za9SPMZd9ls/s320/Corner+detail.jpg" /><br /><br /><br /><br />I used 3 different sizes of circle punches to make my flowers. The punched circles were crumpled and sponged with Pink Pirouette ink before being adhered together with dimensionals. I used white half-pearls from the Pretties Kit for the centre of my flowers.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439415421538257026" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3yvgbKRyII/AAAAAAAAAPA/YO5vWPaKJu8/s320/flowers.jpg" /><br /><br /><br /><br />I made my black and white background paper using the Damask stamp from the Friends 24-7 stamp set. I used my trusty stamp-a-ma-jig so that I could stamp the images fairly evenly. Leaving the stamp-a-ma-jig in place also meant if my image didn't stamp clearly I could re-stamp before moving it (and yes that happened several times).<br /><br /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439415414871005202" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3yvgCUrmBI/AAAAAAAAAO4/PsOhJ38edlU/s320/feb+download+033.jpg" /><br /><br /><br />I had a lot of fun with this challenge and I adore this photo of Briannah - pretty and wild at the same time.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by<br /><br /><br />Lisa<br /><em></em><br /><em>Supplies:</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>Stamp Sets: Frames With a Flourish, Friends 24-7, Defining Alphabet</em><br /><em>Cardstock: Basic Black, Pink Pirouette, Whisper White</em><br /><em>Patterned Paper: Bella Rose</em><br /><em>Ink: Pink Pirouette, Basic Black, Versamark</em><br /><em>Punches: Eyelet Border, 1 3/4" circle, 1 3/8" circle, 1" circle, Butterfly, double slot punch</em><br /><em>Other: Pretties Kit, stampin sponges, stampin dimensionals, pink taffeta ribbon, Flower Button (Button Bouquet), Stamp'n'write Journaller, Black Embossing Powder, Heat Gun</em><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-5494814055430757920?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-38213198721496155652010-02-18T09:11:00.005+11:002010-02-18T09:22:20.844+11:00Hi all,<br /><br />I just realised that I hadn't shared my entry for the 3rd Just Add Ink Challenge.<br /><br />I missed the deadline for this one but I am really pleased with how my card turned out.<br /><br />It was a sketch challenge:<br /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439339497103710914" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3xqdCmeWsI/AAAAAAAAAOw/NpnkGZ4dDjM/s320/JAI_Sketch.JPG" /><br />And here is my card:<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 314px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439339273975570258" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3xqQDYlH1I/AAAAAAAAAOo/7XTlkHieN4k/s320/Happy+Birdday+Card+resized.jpg" /><br />I have used the Good Friend Stamp Set stamped on the back of my patterned paper and cut out so that I could paper piece the little birdy.

Demos have got together to create a blog dedicated to using Stampin' Up! products in our scrapbooks. Go check it out <a href="http://clairedaly.typepad.com/stampamemory/">here</a> and they have some pretty cool ideas and gorgeous samples.<br /><br />Each month they also host a challenge. This month the challenge is to use the word "Love" in your layout. Click <a href="http://clairedaly.typepad.com/stampamemory/2010/02/sam-creative-challenge-3.html">here</a> to see the challenge post.<br /><br />I have also used a fantastic sketch for my layout by Rachel Ricks over at the Scrappy Side. She has some fantastic layouts on her site. <a href="http://thescrappysideoflife.blogspot.com/2010/02/make-take-monday-sketch.html">Here</a> is the link to the sketch I used.<br /><br />And here is my layout:<br /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 393px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437589609499665938" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3Yy8LSVJhI/AAAAAAAAAOI/i6in_xOgutE/s400/Love+this+Boy+resize.jpg" /><br /><br />I loved the little clouds Rachel used on her sample layout so I have used them here to.

When I sponged this paper with More Mustard Ink I was delighted with the effect it produced and that became the pleated feature of my layout.<br /><br /><br /><div></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 318px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437282608340434018" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3UbuW2KfGI/AAAAAAAAAN4/IcCRtuNXDf4/s320/T+layout+blog+size.jpg" /><br /><br /><div>Here are some close ups:</div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437280333536494386" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3UZp8ipAzI/AAAAAAAAANg/dobxBMLwSus/s320/T+closeup+2+resized.jpg" />For the script flowers, I stamped onto the Bella Bleu DSP with the En Francais Background stamp in Basic Gray ink. I then punched out scalloped circles and scrunched them before adding to my layout. I was inspired by the vintage book paper I have seen used elsewhere but I wanted a more scrapbook friendly version.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437281464047215986" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3UarwBZpXI/AAAAAAAAANw/bHi6ep2MBqo/s320/T+closeup+3+resized.jpg" />The double stitched ribbon makes it so easy to create a ruffled look on your page. I have just pulled the stitching tight and secured at the back of the ribbon.<br /><br /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437280334544935858" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S3UZqATEm7I/AAAAAAAAANo/HDQjHRLByxQ/s320/T+closeup+1.jpg" /><br />Here is a closeup of the sponged DSP. I was so happy with how this looked. I can't wait to try it out again on some of my least favourite papers.<br /><br />Photo credits for the gorgeous photo of my niece Tammisha go to my sister-in-law Shelley Wendt. She takes the most amazing photos.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by<br /><br />Lisa<br /><br /><br /><em><span style="font-size:85%;">Supplies:</span></em><br /><div><em><span style="font-size:85%;">Stamps: A Rose is a Rose, Friends 24-7, En Francais, Frames with a Flourish</span></em></div><div><em><span style="font-size:85%;">DSP: Bella Bleu</span></em></div><div><em><span style="font-size:85%;">Cardstock: Kraft, Sage Shadow, Very Vanilla, Basic Gray</span></em></div><div><em><span style="font-size:85%;">Ink: Basic Gray, More Mustard, Rose Red, Sage Shadow</span></em></div><div><em><span style="font-size:85%;">Punches: Scallop Edge, Scallop Circle</span></em></div><div><em><span style="font-size:85%;">Other: Rose Red Double Stitched Ribbon, Basic Gray Marker, Mat Pack, On Board Timeless Type Chipboard</span></em> , <em><span style="font-size:85%;">Sponge Daubers</span></em></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-288872626946768011?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com18tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-78928373998433149562010-02-02T17:35:00.007+11:002010-02-02T17:48:24.491+11:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S2fH8vu1dyI/AAAAAAAAAMA/1-yHfZ7QCKQ/s1600-h/Love.small.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 311px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433531321864779554" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S2fH8vu1dyI/AAAAAAAAAMA/1-yHfZ7QCKQ/s320/Love.small.jpg" /></a> The Just Add Ink Challenge this week is to use hearts and I have certainly done that with this page lol.<br /><br />My mum snapped these pics of hubby and I at my brother's New Years Eve bbq.

I hope you have all had a lovely Christmas and are enjoying the holidays. We are having an at home holiday this year and trying to get some jobs finished around the house. My lovely hubby has already finished painting the front of our house and is now on to building a bedroom for our eldest. He is sooo handy to have around.<br /><br />I can't wait for the boys to all have their own room. It will make such a difference...some time-out from each other is very important some days lol.<br /><br />Only problem is that I have to do some major downsizing of my scrapbook supplies so I can fit in my new area. Sam (my now 14 month old) loves to help and as I try and organise he is busily unpacking everything in sight. Sigh. I will get there one day.<br /><br />I have managed to do a little scrapbooking though and I have a page to share using the Hoppy Memories Scrapbooking Kit from Stampin' Up!.<br /><br /><br /><br /><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 319px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5424886266292092034" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/S0kRUSE8PII/AAAAAAAAAJE/1nxdnPVujZY/s320/Hoppy+Memories+Ben.jpg" /><br /><br />There is lots of inking and distressing on this one and I have used the Curly Label punch to make a border on my photo mat.<br /><br />I can hear Sam crying in the background..better run </p><p>Happy Scrapping</p><p> </p><p>Lisa</p><p><br /><br /></p><p></p><p><br /></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-5239016396295643241?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-72215909794008902132009-12-03T11:27:00.002+11:002009-12-03T11:34:40.074+11:00<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 156px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410800130536891314" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/SxcGDRNJ47I/AAAAAAAAAIk/06hf620EtIg/s320/summer-mini-picture.jpg" />The new Summer Mini Catalogue from Stampin' Up! was released on Tuesday.

As a Hostess you also receive a free set with $600 in sales at your workshop so what are you waiting for contact me now to book your workshop.<br /><br />I was a bit late with my Summer Mini Pre-order so I am hoping my new stamps will arrive so I can have a play with them this weekend.

The advantage to this is that each project has a thumbnail picture together with the supplies. Click <a href="http://www3.stampinup.com/au/documents/AUS_09_10_IBC_Stampin_Supplies.pdf">here</a> to download your copy of the Supply List.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 242px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5339278928873939938" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/Shjt5ahCY-I/AAAAAAAAAGE/l-inPP9jUHQ/s320/So+Kind+Catalogue+Case+92.jpg" /><br />My "So Kind" card is a CASE of the card featured on page 92 of the catalogue. I have reproduced the card exactly but this card would look great in different colour combinations too.<br /><br />The Flower Designer Brads add a special finishing touch. I have a product share available for the 4 different designs of Designer Brads. Each share is $11.25 and contains 2 of each brad. See page 138 of the catalogue for samples.<br /><br />Happy Stamping<br /><br />Lisa<br /><br /><em>Supplies used:</em><br /><em>Cardstock: Chocolate Chip, More Mustard, Mellow Moss, Riding Hood Red and Very Vanilla</em><br /><em>Ink: Chocolate Chip and Riding Hood Red</em><br /><em>Accessories: Riding Hood Red Ribbon, Flower Brad, Scallop Circle Punch, 1 1/4" circle punch, 1 3/8" circle punch</em><br /><em>Stamp Set: Priceless</em><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-4562992274785640994?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-56063810049677671162009-05-08T09:19:00.002+10:002009-05-08T09:28:29.822+10:00In honour of National Scrapbooking Month I am looking for 6 ladies who would like to join my new Scrapbook Club in Tamworth.<br /><br />Build your stamping/scrapbooking stash, continually receive new ideas and inspiration at free classes and connect with others who share your passion for scrapbooking.<br /><br />Each Club would have 6 members and would last 6 months.

Email me if you would like to receive a copy of the timetable.<br /><br />This is my Spring Brocade Card Class which features the Pretties Kit, Brocade Motifs Stamp Set and Spring Silhouettes paper. Sadly most of the materials used in this class are on the retiring list. I will be very sad to see the Brocade Motifs Stamp Set go.<br /><br />Back to my class, cost is $25 and the class will be held at my home on Wednesday, 29 April 2009 from 7 pm. Class cost includes all materials. I will let you know what tools you need when you book.<br /><br />If possible please book early so I can make sure I have enough paper etc before it disappears forever on 31 March.<br /><br />Hope to see you in class.<br /><br />Lisa<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-5646198733810849004?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-30140326200279943922009-03-03T10:13:00.002+11:002009-03-03T10:29:58.917+11:00Vicki Whitson from Angels R Scrappin and I are organising a 12 hour scrap for a cause with all proceeds being donated to the Victorian Bushfire appeal through the Salvation Army.<br /><br />Details are as follows:<br /><br />Date: Saturday 14th March 2009<br /><br />Time: 10 am to 10 pm<br /><br />Venue: Salvation Army Hall, Goonoo Goonoo Road, Tamworth<br /><br />Cost: $25 per person<br /><br />Your entry fee covers all day scrapbooking/cardmaking, tea/coffee, morning and afternoon tea and lunch.

There will be a Card Tote Bag and three matching cards and also a card buffet where you make a variety of cards.

As soon as I saw them I had to know how to make them and I found the instructions here <a href="http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/boxinabag/">http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/boxinabag/</a>. Splitcoast is a great resource for tutorials on all sorts of cute projects.<br /><br />For my Box in a Bag I have used Dashing Designer Series Paper and stamped a sentiment from<br /><em>Party Punch</em> a Level 1 Hostess Set. I used Old Olive and Real Red Markers to colour direct to the stamp to achieve a multicoloured image. I then punched it out with the Designer Tag punch and layered it onto a punched circle.<br /><br />These little bags will be perfect for teacher's gifts.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-4697462910073693712?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-31319855994742066332008-12-06T13:38:00.005+11:002008-12-14T21:06:28.281+11:00I have been tagged by the very talented <a href="http://www.debgodley.blogspot.com/">Deb</a> ( and a huge congratulations on your honourable mentions in the Scrapbook Memories Masters....you deserve it).<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />The Rules are:<br /><br /><br />1.

The Kangaroo is just adorable (and the surfin' Santa is pretty cool too). Believe it or not I don't own this set yet so I stamped and heat embossed some images when I was at a friend's (Hi Vicki) ready to colour and use later.</div><div> </div><div>I have coloured the images with my Stampin' Write Markers. They have then been mounted on cardstock and I have used some papers from the Dashing Designer Series Paper Set. Of course my new scallop edge punch had to be used on the card as well. I have used that punch on nearly every card since I it arrived. I love love love it and it is much quicker than using my corner rounder for scalloped edges.</div><div> </div><div>I really need to learn how to put my photos in the text as well rather that just at the top of my post.

You might even like to suggest to your family and friends that a Gift Certificate is what you would really like for Christmas this year. </div><br /><br /><div>If you would like to order products for Christmas make sure to do it soon to guarantee pre-Christmas delivery.</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6976826057906213933-8678274864423075202?l=stampwithlisa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lisa Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15109350561426451883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976826057906213933.post-63909155934237073622008-12-02T13:06:00.003+11:002008-12-02T13:16:18.567+11:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/STSZbJAouhI/AAAAAAAAABo/ETYhNZ3lwOs/s1600-h/Winter+Girls.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275009755111799314" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/STSZbJAouhI/AAAAAAAAABo/ETYhNZ3lwOs/s320/Winter+Girls.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/STSZbHjnupI/AAAAAAAAABg/g5w6vho0AzI/s1600-h/Winter+Bright+Layout.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275009754721663634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 306px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__qdu5KkCH8w/STSZbHjnupI/AAAAAAAAABg/g5w6vho0AzI/s320/Winter+Bright+Layout.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div>The Winter Bright Simply Scrappin Kit is one of my favourites and it is also on special this month.
