One Wild Ride

Hi Stampers,

Happy Monday friends ! 

Here is another card I made using my Million dollar stamp set "One Wild Ride " 

I wasn't a part of the naming of my million dollar stamp set but I believe when Kathy  & I designed my stamp set she had already knew parts of my life that just the name really explains  my life  in a nut shell .

Even though it really is an awesome name for my set BUT I look at the things I have been through especially over the last few years with  falling and breaking my femur and  my hip replacement  and oh lets not forget  about me losing my diamond ring this past Winter ~ Yes it has been One Wild Ride  for sure . 

Basically my stamp set name has a "double "meaning to me personally . 

2 of the items I used on my card today are also on the retirement list which I didn't know would be at the time I made it 

• Mini 1/8" Silver Brads #122941
•  Itty Bitty Accents Punch pack # 133787

The last I checked these 2 items were still available not sure as of today ( sorry) 

The Neutrals designer paper stack # 138435 is also on the retirement list .

Here is what the inside of my card looks like .

 

All the items I used on today's card are listed below ( except my "One Wild Ride" stamp set)  

my set will be available on Wednesday  June 1, 2016.

Reminder 

For every $50 (before S&H and tax) spent from

May 20th, 2016 until May 31st, 2016 will get an extra FSM token.

Born to Ride ,

Hi Stampers,

Happy Monday Friends .

Here is another card that made the cutting room floor . I seriously  wasn't even sure when I was making this card if I was going to even  use it in my presentation,  I was just having fun  playing with my  One Wild Ride  stamp set .

Here is what the inside of the card looks like .

I love love love this greeting in the stamp set makes me laugh every time . 

My One Wild Ride stamp set coordinates with a punch and also framelits in the new catalog too . YAHOO! 

I think pretty much every card I have made that is masculine themed, I incorporated the chrome aka Silver Foil sheets...

 But this one is of course I made with

Harley Davidson colors (Pumpkin Pie / Basic Black ) with a little bit of the  chrome LOL!

One Wild Ride .

Hi Stampers,

Happy Monday Friends !

Here is one of the cards that got cut from my Onstage presentation  last month. I knew there was a 10 minute limit on my presentation but when I got my stamp set I did go a little  crazy making so many  cards . 

I  punched  motorcycle with the 1 3/4" Circle punch and then layering it on to the 2" Circle punch  of course the Silver Foil Sheets will always been known as Chrome  especially in our home LOL!

The 2 3/8" Scallop Circle punch was also used with Basic Black card stock #121045  and this  2 3/8" Scallop punch is also on the retirement list HERE  ( this punch still available the last time I checked )

• You still have 2 weeks  to get your favorites from the retirement list.

The background was stamped in the Smoky Slate classic ink  with a couple other images in my  stamp set  The Gravel Splatter ( well that's what I'm calling it anyway ) and also the Route 66 .

The tiny  star punch is from the  Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack #133787 ( still available the last time I checked ) 

( which is on the retirement list~WHY OH WHY ? I love this star )

The greeting is also in the stamp set.

I seriously can NOT  express how excited I am about  my Million Dollar stamp set.

All items are listed below  for quick reference ( except my One Wild Ride set).

Dawn's Sunday Share 5-15-2016

Hi Stampers,

 Happy Sunday friends!

I have been busy this last week and guess what?? so far I have (6) videos filmed and  ready to post while we are on the incentive trip with SU! over the next couple weeks 

I have  2 videos for you this week.

While I'm away  I will be sharing my Million Dollar stamp set projects that I designed for my presentation last month at Onstage but they all got cut from my presentation only because I was only allowed 10 minutes to present on my stamp set so  all the extras I will share with you  over the next few weeks .

I filmed ( 2 ) of the 4 videos  that will be posted once the new catalog goes live the week of June 1, 2016 ....

1 of these cards I filmed a video on I shared for my presentation and the other video is one I made swaps  for .

The other (3) projects I shared for my "One Wild Ride " stamp set presentation will also have a video but will post those later .

I will also be sharing a few swaps I received from my friends at OnStage and also gifts ( R.A.K= Random Acts of Kindness)  from friends over the next few weeks .

 Today's goodies came from my friend Debbie . Thank you Debbie.

Love your cards and  also the adorable #Blessed bag~ which is  in my favorite color too I might add :)  .

ICYMI Friday May 13, 2016

Hi Stampers,

Happy Friday friends ! 

I thought I would share  a birthday card I made  for  a fellow demonstrator  and I'm pretty sure it's safe to post it now  since I sent it  early  this week .

I used the Puffy Balloons on her card  too .

Oh my goodness I love those balloons  and I thought  making them in a different color would show you  how cute they are for anyone /any age not just for young children in bright colors .

I used the Rich Razzleberry and Mint Macaron  for my balloons.

I also used the Lucky Stars  embossing folder  for the 2 small layers and then stamped the tiny star on the edge of the Tip Top Taupe card stock

Here is the inside of her card .

I used  the new stamp set from the new catalog starting on June 1,2016  called 

• Confetti Celebrations 

All images shown on today's card ( front and inside ) are in this stamp set .

I also added clear Wink of Stella # 141897 to the balloons and also to the PARTY 

The puffy Balloon video is posted below ICYMI .

You probably  noticed  on my Puffy Balloons video that video went on for 31 mins  even though the video ended  at under 10 minutes  then a black screen followed   . I am not sure what happened. I'm sorry .

Lemonade cup card with Bokeh Technique

Hi Stampers,

Today we will be making this adorable Lemonade  cup card . I got the  one on the left from my friend Linda.

I love her card,  I had made a lemonade cup card  years ago probably at least  6 years ago  and it was a curved lemonade cup which squishes when it gets mailed. You  pretty much have to hand deliver it and that's sometimes even more fun...I love  this version too since it's already flat.

Here are the measurements of the pieces  to make this card 

Daffodil Delight  card stock #119683

•  cut at 4 1/4" x 11" scored at 5 1/2"

Whisper white  card stock # 100730 

• cut at 4 1/8" x 5 3/8"
• cut at 2" x 5 1/4" ( Bokeh Technique strip ) 

Pumpkin Pie card stock #105117

• cut at 2 1/8" x 5 3/8"

Vellum card stock # 101856

• cut at 2 1/2" x 4"

Whisper White card stock # 100730 

• cut at 2 1/2" x 4"

We will be using the Apple of my Eye stamp set  # 140736

I have a Bokeh Technique video I posted last year .

Dawn's Sunday Share May 8, 2016

Hi Stampers,

 Happy Mothers Day !

I made my mom a card But I will share that with you  tomorrow  since I know she is on here :) and I will be giving her card to her later today .

• Happy Mothers day Mom I love you !

Today we are going out for dinner for Mothers Day and meeting up with Jessie and Tommy and my Mom and Bill .

 

Yesterday My Hubby took a 1,000 mile Iron Butt ride with our friend Glenn they left at 5:30 am .

The 1,000 ride was only in Michigan . Now we need to send in the paper work to collect the Iron Butt  mileage and patches . 

 Friday Hubby  got his  2nd part done to his tattoo this week.

The 1st part was Tuesday and then he got the clock  added on Friday .

This tattoo is so amazing in real life .

The clock  I had mentioned last week was Romans 10:9 ( the 10:9 are the clock hands )   But not sure if you knew this or not BUT the clock underneath the top clock is a reflection of the 10:9 so it reflects back up to him when he looks down at it. This clock is on the inside part of his forearm  .

• Is that AWESOME or what ?

 It's beautiful~ truly a piece of  art work . Thank you Larry .

The next session will be after we get back from the incentive trip  with Stampin'Up!  and that will be more than likely the last  sitting  for this tattoo  sleeve at least that's the plan ... 

I  got a couple videos filmed for this upcoming week just need to edit and upload them .

 I also got my cards for my Glitter Queen's  top (10 ) for April made and mailed out yesterday as well.

Adding Rhinestones to my Harley Vest video .

Hi Stampers,

Today is not  a typical stamping video ...

I thought I would make a video on how I added the rhinestones to my  vest  using a rhinestone setter  and  Swarovski crystals .

It's really simple just a little time consuming but I  think it's all worth the  time  after you see what you created with lots of sparkle .

• I seriously  could  add rhinestones to everything LOL! 

Here is all the info  that is listed in my video today  on the items I used.

-------------------------------------------------

 

-------------------------------------------------

 

Rhinestone Setter  found on Amazon for about $11.00 

• Dream Time Creations  web site to get all the rhinestones .

Here  are the  rhinestones  we used: 

• 2078 Hot Fix Rhinestones click HERE

The size of the stones are 3 mm or 12ss ( see photo above)

• 1/2 Gross = 72 rhinestones 
• 1 Gross = 144 Rhinestones 
• 10 Gross = 1,400 rhinestones

Dawn's Sunday Share May 1, 2016

Hi Stampers,

 Happy Sunday friends ! 

Hubby is still  getting work done on his Tattoo  to finish his sleeve  and this is the next part he is adding to  his inside forearm This is the  rough draft  from Larry ( you all know our famous Larry Farley right ?) 

This is what Rich was telling Larry what he wanted and this is what he designed out ~OMG!! 

I have a blog candy for you today.....

YOU must leave your comment today  below this blog post before  11:30 pm eastern time  tonight .

The 1st correct answer with the WHOLE meaning will receive  a blog candy  from me.

Here is the question :

• What hidden message ( whole message)  does my husbands  tattoo "rough draft"  shown above reveal ? 

Update  5:25 pm Christine Geary got the correct answer .

• The top gear is Romans 10:9 

(KJV)  Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead , thou shalt be saved .

He will be starting on this part of his tattoo this upcoming week.

 I will be sure to share a photo once he gets it done since I know it will be so much better than the photo .

As many of you know the new catalog is coming out in 1 month and  this is the 1 month of the year I really struggle  since I love  getting new goodies  and playing with all of them  but  I know the catalog isn't going live  for 1 month so  there is NO way to purchase the items I am showing you  BUT  this would be a great time to  mark down your favorites you see  and add them to your wish list . Trust me when I say there  are so many  AWESOME new goodies .

This week I will be sharing a few new items you will be able to get on June 1st  so get your wish list out .

Need a WISH LIST click HERE 

Here are some fun facts about the new  2016/17  catalog 

• There is 212 pages in the new catalog 
• It took 19 months from start to finish 
• 175 new Tool & Accessories 
• 377 New Products 
• 450 product samples 

It's is AWESOME!! 

This afternoon we have a GRS ( Group Riding Seminar ) with our HOG chapter this will be our 2nd GRS and I am sure we will learn something new again this year . We can never be to safe out there  and riding with a group is totally different than riding alone .

Speaking of our  HOG chapter I am  sharing the group photo I shared with everyone at convention during my presentation . Our LOH  event  we had at my home I had mentioned to all of the ladies that  my Million Dollar stamp set was  going to be a motorcycle  but NOT any motorcycle it  was my hubby's Harley and of course all the ladies wanted it  even before they seen it. 

I mentioned to them once I got the set ( I didn't know the following week I was going to ask to present on my stamp set and also get it sent to me early ) I would make them all a little thank you note using the stamp set in a lady rider kind of way . 

Here we all are holding the cards I made them using the One Wild Ride stamp set .  

• I just want to say for the record I think personally this is the best stamp set ever!  :)

I will be filming all the cards (5) I made for my presentation  plus this thank you note ( above)  for Onstage using my One Wild Ride stamp set and those video will post next month .

Such an awesome Masculine stamp set but hey a great set for all those lady riders too :) . I love all the images in my set and all the  greetings are awesome too PLUS there is a Route 66  tiny stamp  gotta love that .

Happy to report I got hundreds and hundreds of new catalogs ordered and  those will be  mailed out around May 9th, if you didn't make my  SU! mailing, don't worry I will have a lot of new catalogs on hand as well and will still send them out personally to all my new customers .

Please let me know  if you do NOT get your new catalog by June 1st .
