I can't take credit for this card layout idea... it was one that I found on our demonstrator resource site.  I changed the color scheme up a bit for my clubber gals but other than that, it was a straight copy!!

The card uses the Perfect Plum & Whisper White color combination as well as the new Silver Glitter paper!  Love that stuff!!  You really must see this card in person as the picture doesn't do it justice!  

Thanks for stopping by today! 

November Club Projects!

November marks the end of the Holiday Club ... sort of!  I'm offering a bonus class for these ladies in early December so if you want to make a Holiday project and would like to to learn more about my next club opportunity - email me and I'll send you more details!

This was the first of 2 different cards we made in November.  Using fabric on my cards is not common for me but I liked the effect on these ones.  We finished each card with some embellishments (Pearls) or some of the new Dazzling Details accessory.

I'll be back later this week with the second holiday card we made in November.  It is my favorite card of the year - so far!!

I'm back!

And I have some catching up to do!

Let me start by explaining the HUGE gap in posts from me over the last little while...

Back in early September, I lost my computer to a storm (electrical surge).  I ended up having to invest in a laptop.  I love my new device however it has not been easy to get everything from my old computer to my new one and in some cases, things didn't operate the same on my new laptop as they did on my PC.  Blog posts were one example of this!  I have finally figured out what I needed to do to correct my posting issues so now I'm back!! 

Now to the reason you've come by... creative samples!

Today's picture is of some of the treats I've prepared for the Dorchester Fall Fair - happening this coming Thanksgiving Weekend!  The Fair vendors will open for business Saturday morning at 10am so if you're planning on coming to the Fair, be sure to stop in and see me!  We're usually set up in the large green barn. 

Dorchester Fall Fair vendor hours:
Saturday 10-6pm
Sunday 10-4pm
Monday 10-4pm

Flower Power!
