December Paper Pumpkin

This month's Paper Pumpkin is so darn cute.  I love it.  As soon as I opened it there was a special surprise gift for me.  It is the templates to do punching holes to outline an image.  I am going to have to use that in a class to show you how wonderful that works and makes your card look great.  Watch for that in the coming days.  

Here is one sample of the cards from the December Paper Pumpkin.  There were 3 designs with 3 different colors for the lettering.  

Yes it is a shaker card.  The stars and sequins were included.  This is exactly how SU planned the card.  Many months I change mine up.  Not this month.  I loved it just the way it was.

If you want to sign up for Paper Pumpkin go to the SU website and put my name in Janice Borchart.  It will take you to my SU website then click on Paper Pumpkin.  You can stop the kit from coming to your home every month when you cancel it.  Very easy to start and stop.  Try it you might like it.  Got grandkids that live in another state?  This is a great way to send them a gift every month.  The kit has instructions and all the supplies needed.  The only thing they will need is adhesive or glue.  This could also be a great gift for that college student that is away from home.  It will give her something productive to do in her spare time.  And you might even get a card from her.  Questions contact me.

Sheltering Tree

Love the softness of this card.  So I had to make it into a sympathy card. 

This card was one of those mistakes turned into a success.  I used markers on the stamp set to make the different colored leaves.  But the first one did not look right.  So I added more colors in different places and stamped again.  Then I decided to stamp off and put leaves on the ground.  Then I decided the bottom of the card looked bare.  So I got out my Adventure Bound paper and found the grass.  I used my scissors with multiply cuts to make the grass blades.  Then trimmed them to not all be the same height.  Then I cut the trunk of the middle tree out of the white so I could stick it into the grass part.  It turned out to really look like it is growing in the grass.  Ok so I know it is not spring or fall but I will make a winter one.  Just trying not to have the snow arrive here.  I am enjoying not having snow yet.  But you cannot make snowmen outside without snow.  But you sure can make a snowman with stamp sets.  Just saying..............

Catalog Kick Off

In the beginning of December I met my friend Cheryl from Muskego with some of her downline.  We went to dinner than went over to Tinsel Town in Kenosha for the SU Occasions Catalog Kickoff.  I had not gone to the last one for the annual catalog.  But this time it was a night I could go.  So I signed up and asked Cheryl if she was going.  Here is a picture of us taken as we were entering the theater.  None of us like our picture being taken.  But it was fun to be together.

What I will say about the kickoff is I now understand what my customers feel like wondering what things really look like and what you can do with them.  Watching what SU employees were doing with so many of the items was so exciting.  We were laughing at how much we now knew we needed.  There were stamp sets that I would never have thought I would really want but I know own because of what I saw them do with it.  Example is the herd stamp set.  I thought it was cute but oh so much fun.  Here are two samples of what I have made with it.

I saw this a pinterest (sorry I cannot remember your name to give you credit).  It is using the designer series paper pack called Adventure Bound in the Occasion Catalog.  Then I stamped the herd in tuxedo black and used many of my blendabilities to make the animals pop.  Then I added the party hat and pom pom.  I love this card. 

This was my first card I made with the herd.  This is my design no casing from anyone.  I used the FREE Paper from SAB that is embossed with this diagonal stripe.  I colored the stripe with my daffodil blendability then wiped the embossed part with a kleenex and look how it turned out.  I bought the picture frame framelit awhile ago and it reminded me of the picture of us at the catalog kickoff.  I like that I put it at an angle.  I know I am not done using this stamp set.  But I have spent time using other stamps from the Occasions catalog.  Come back again later this week and I will show you more.

Craft Fairs 2014

The Grinch that stole Christmas was the best seller.

Penguin was the best seller for these cute curvy boxes filled with chocolate kisses.

This was my display at the Marriott Craft Fair.  The board was filled with Occasions card kit samples.

This was my display at the Sturtevant Fountain Hall Craft Fair.  This time my board was filled with cards that I sold almost all of them!  I learned that people liked seeing them at their height better than on the table.  Interesting......... People also loved the framed art.  They did not want to buy them they wanted to attend a class to make their own.  So I believe I will have some new customers in my classes starting in January.  

 I enjoyed doing the craft fairs.  I was in just the two.  It takes a lot of work to put the items together.  But I loved making the items.  My good friend Kyla was a good sport and helped me lots.  Thank you Kyla.  The other part that I enjoyed about the craft fairs was that I handed out a card for people to have and use.  It helped me to talk and share my love of stamping with others.  I had one lady that came to my the second craft fair and stopped to tell me she loved the card I gave her and that it was the perfect card for a friend of hers that is going through a tough illness.  That goes to show that God is helping every day.

Ok I have to show you a card that I made with my new stuff.  Let's just say I love butterflies and the new framelit butterflies are so awesome...............................

This is the new framelit and stamp set.  The ribbon and button come from a SAB free item.  The color is coastal cabana.  I used daubers on the butterfly after it was cut out with the framelit.  Then below is the inside of the card.  It all goes so well together.  What do you think?  Leave me a comment.

Ahhhhhhhh  Janice

Christmas Framed Art

Here is my recent framed art.  This picture is not as great because of the glass glare.  I think this one could go in either a white or black frame.  

This is a better picture of it out of the frame.  All four critters are using the owl punch.  I just love that punch.  If you do not have it you do not know all the things you are missing.  Just ask Ann...........  She is finding lots of things to make with it.  The Grinch is so funny.  I was not sure about him at first.  But now I think he is my favorite.  But then I also love the snowman.  He is different because I put white arms on him instead of tree branches.  And Santa well he is carry a bag of presents (using the owl punch for the bag too).  And then Rudolf well he is fun and easy.  And the lovely wreath and tree oh my! 


So which one do you like the best.  Let's see your votes.  Janice

Another favorite card

 This was another one of the favorites at the Christmas Card Buffet.  Everyone loved the simplicity of this card.  It is made with Crumb Cake and Chocolate Chip card stock.  The snow in the sky is made using white craft ink with a stamp from gorgeous grunge.  If you do not have gorgeous grunge stamp set I can order it for you today.  We also used a dauber and the white craft ink to make the snow on the ground.  Then we added using the white gel pen under the deer's feet and the bottom of the trees.  It is such a soothing peaceful card.  You could use this card for thinking of you, birthday, etc.  It is very versatile.  Janice

Packing up "my stuff"

I brought my "31" bag down to load up my stamping baskets from my hostess club.  I think my cat, Squee, decided I brought it down for him.  He was in it within seconds.  I guess he thinks he is "My Stuff".........








So now to a picture of all 4 cards that are in the holiday catalog.  This kit is one of my favorites.  It is fun to make the cards.  They are all using watercoloring.  I personally love the red sleigh.

The other one that people liked was the red and white striped cardstock.  They also loved the glitter paper behind the tress.  It too is a nice card.  I hope you consider purchasing this kit from me.  I will have a few available for purchase at the Marriott Craft Fair on Saturday, Nov. 29th 10-3. 

Janice

Favorite card

I have been busy getting everything ready for the Christmas Card Buffet at my house.  I held it 2 days and it was a blast.  Some ladies came 2 days to get more done.  This has been a favorite class.  I have a customer that makes sure she comes to this every year.  She did not make many other classes this past year but she was surely coming to the Christmas Card Buffet. 

So the favorite card that I ran out of before everyone that wanted to do it was

Mr. Snowman himself!!!!!!  He was the favorite.  So I was able to quickly cut for those that wanted to make him.  Was glad he was so easy to cut more for my customers.  He is darn cute.  Janice

Last two from the kit

 The Merry is cut out for you to watercolor.  You can see how I made it darker on one side.  That means each one will be different.  The vellum holly leaves are cut out for you.  And the glitter berries are also cut out for you.  The banner is cut you just have to stamp it.  Now how do you like that?

This card was white and you paint smokey slate stripes across it.  I chose to make mine not perfect so I did not go crazy.  The vellum snowflake is all cut out for you.  The words Merry & Bright are cut out you just watercolor them.  Stick the letters on the linen thread and attach. 

Last call to sign up is Nov. 11th.  Janice

Happy Sparkling Season

Here is another card that is from the watercolor kit.  The trees got painted and have glitter paper behind them so it shows through.  It is so beautiful.  This is again a simple card to make.  I love the red striped base.  That too comes in the kit.  I have bought many kits so that you can make this at the Christmas Card Buffet.  Just RSVP by Nov. 11th. 

Cardinal Card

Do love cardinals?  I still get excited when I hear them calling.  I have a bush in my front yard that has red berry things on it and they love those.  Don't tell anybody but I love watching them out my window at my day job.  shhhhhh 

This card was made using the designer series paper that is in the winter holiday catalog.  I stamped the cardinal right on top of it.  Then colored it in.  It gave the bird a different look, not very solid.  It has snowflakes in the background along with lost lagoon and soft sky going across.  It reminded me of snow blowing.  I added the silver glitter paper to give it a little sparkle. 

This is another card that will be at the Christmas Card Buffet.  Remember to sign up by the 11th.  Janice

Christmas Card Kit

Did you know that Stampin' Up has a Christmas Card Kit?  It is in the supplement to the Holiday Catalog.  It is a watercolor kit.  I love it.  I made the 4 designs today.  It was really fun.  In the kit you get everything to make 20 cards.  That is 5 of each design.  You need a few items.  You need reinkers (old olive, cherry cobbler, smokey slate & coastal cabana).  The stamp set is also extra but it is a nice stamp set for other cards.  You also might have enough other sayings that would work. 

This card is my favorite.  Now you know I have said I do not like outdoor sports in the winter.........  Well I do love the look of a sled.  Especially a red old sled.........

Isn't this just the cutest card?  I just love the red sled.  You watercolor it the shade of red you want.  You can see that some of the sled is a deep red than the other parts.  The main card came with the white spots of snow on it.  Then you add the vellum snow flake behind the sled, the glitter paper and the white sequins.  These are all included in the kit. 

I am going to have this card as one of the cards that can be made at my Christmas Card Buffet.  The Buffet is you can make as many or as few cards as you would like.  The cost is $1.50 per card.  I have two dates for you to make them. 

Wednesday, Nov. 12th at 2:00-8pm I will be at On A Whim with tables for you to create these cards.

Saturday, Nov. 15th at 9:00am until 1:00pm I will be at my house with tables for you to create these cards.

All I ask is that you let me know what day you will be attending by the 11th.  Thanks  Janice

Gentle Peace

This is a card I made for my Christmas Card Buffet.  I love this stamp set.  I am someone that wants to keep God in the Christmas Season.  I love this new stamp set.  It is a lot of coloring but it is very easy to color.  I have colored it on vellum but I did not like how it looked once I attached it.  So I have to play more with it.  This one is made on whisper white cardstock.  It was easy to cut out out.  I added dazzling details on the entire glass image.  I spread it with a water color brush to put just a light coating on the entire image.  I used Hellow Honey for the main card and cherry cobbler for the layer with the star framelit.  This stamp set is one of the polymer stamps so you won't find it in the catalog.  You will need to go to the Stampin' Up website and go to my website on there and you will find it.  Let me know if you cannot find it.  I will be happy to assist you in this.

Take care and enjoy this season of joy.  Janice

Framed Art Work

Ok I will show you the entire piece of the Winter Framed Art.  Many of you have said you want to see the entire thing put together.  If you have been at one of my classes you would have seen this already.  So why have you not come to a class?  Just wondering.

This picture it is not in the white frame.  The glare from the glass was too much.  But it is fun.  I love the snowman made from the glitter paper and the Lost Lagoon ribbon.  I colored the rhinestones with my blendabilities to make the black and the orange.  Love the blendabilities.  I also added the snow flakes from last year.  I bought so much of it when SU sold it but it goes a long way.

I look forward to making this with you.  Contact me ASAP.  Janice

Sneak Peek #2

I have had many people asking me about when I will be offering my Winter Framed Art Class.  Well I have finally decided.  I will have it on Saturday, Nov. 22nd at 9am.  The cost is $10 without the frame.  If you need a frame it will be an additional $6.

Here is another sneak peek for you to see what it looks like.

So here is a little more of it.  What do you think?  Do you want to make this?  Let me know soon.  Time is flying by now that it is November.  Christmas comes too fast.  I have a few of these to make as Christmas gifts.  A few friends love these.  I supply them with the refills every season.  Janice

Chistmas Card Hostess Club

Here is another Christmas Card that my Hostess Club members did last month.  By the way, Jan was the hostess and she had a great party!  She got lots of free items.  Jan is loving her items.  If you want to join a hostess club let me know.  I will be starting up another one in January. 

I love this stamp set.  It is called Serene Silhouette.  I have used this for all seasons.  In Spring I color the birds to look like Robins.  The birds can be black, brown, blue or red.  It is your choice.  Here I made them red for the cardinals.  The paper is the designer package in the Holiday Catalog.  This is another simple clean card.  Another easy one to make for the holidays.  Can be for lots of different occasions too.  Does not have to be for Christmas.  Could be a thinking of you, get well, sorry you are shut in this winter, etc.  Cards do make people smile.  Janice

Christmas Card Collection

Here is a Christmas card I did with my Hostess Club members. 

This card was made by embossing the trees in white.  Then using the old olive blendabilities marker we colored slightly on the white embossed trees.  Then we took a dauber and smeared white on the ground to look like snow.  Of course I had to add the white snowflake embellishments to the sky.  In case you have not noticed I love those.  We also embossed in white the words Merry & Bright.  This is the card that had the glitter paper as the first layer that I had them cut out a star out of it to use on the star card a few days ago that I posted here. 

Take time to enjoy putting your Christmas Cards together.  It should be fun not a chore.  Let's get working on it now so you don't have to rush.  Janice

Saturday morning fun

We had so much fun making the curvy boxes.  Vera was all thumbs today.  But she did it.  Everyone wants to buy the curvy box framelit now.  So many ideas of what to do with them. 

Here is the last box we made.  HO HO HO Santa is coming.  A thought you might not have thought of is to make 25 of these cute curvy boxes and have a small treat or a fun saying inside each one as your count down to Christmas.  It would be easy to make 25 and you could use them again next year if you wanted to.

I will post more of the other ones I have made for the craft fairs that I am selling at.  I will take pictures towards the end of the month.  I will be at the Marriott Craft Fair on Saturday, Nov. 29th and I will be at the Craft Fair in Sturtevant at the Fountain Hall on Saturday, December 8th.  I will give you more details about these events as they get closer.  Janice

Winter Art Frame

I have many customers that love to make the Framed Art.  The Halloween one was fun.  I loved all the sayings we had on it.  Plus the spooky house and bats.  So sorry if you missed it.  But the good news is that I have completed the Winter Framed Art.  I will show you bits of it to entice you to want to come and make it.  Here is the first peek.

So this is the top row.  Yes I love cardinals.  So we had to put those in.  The cardinal was made by using the bird punch.  It was exciting to see how you can make this bird look like a cardinal.  It took some thought but when it was done, I could say it was really not that difficult.  It just took some thinking, which is not always easy for some of us.  I like to get things done.  I am not very patient with putsy things.

You can see that I used the new tag punch from the holiday catalog.  Love that tag punch.  It worked well for this project.  I also love the sequins and snowflakes that come together that are a great embellishment to add to the project (or many projects as I have).  I also had to incorporate the snowflake charm embellishment.  It is just too cute not to show off.  I also love love love the stamp set with the polar bear, trees, birds, snowman and all the other stamps in the set.  Again I love to look at snow scenes just don't make me go outside for very long.  Many moons ago I did like to cross country ski.  That was way back when I was in college.  I know my best friend from college probably still cross country skis.  Kathy, you go girl. 

Well I gotta run and get everything ready for tomorrow morning.  Oh did you forget to sign up for the curvy box class?  You have until 6pm to let me know you are coming.  Janice

Curvy boxes day 4

So you are back to see the 4th box.  Well I am going to show you one that we will not be making.  This one is using vellum.  I put a battery operated candle in the middle so it lights up.  How cool these would be on a mantel or holiday table. 

I apologize that I had to take this picture in a slightly darker room so that you could see the effect the candle gives to the curvy box. I also took a picture of it in the light.  I used the vellum that has the gold dots on it.  Tied a gold ribbon on the top.  I think I should add a tag.  There are 3 tag shapes to go with the curvy box framelit in the kit.  So you can add that very easily.  Who needs to order this?  I am placing an order tonight.  So let me know by 6pm and I will get it ordered.

I look forward to showing you more on Saturday.  If you are not coming to the class on Saturday......... Oh well you will have to wait longer to see more curvy boxes.  Just saying Santa and football are in the air.......

Janice

Curvy boxes day 3

I could not decide which one to show you.  I am having so much fun playing with these.  But I decided to stick to the ones you will be making on Saturday, Nov. 1st.  Have you signed up?  I only have 3 spots left. 

If you know me, I do not like winter.  I think the first snowfall is beautiful.  Then when the snow gets dirty it is ugly.  I do not care to participate in any outdoor sports in the winter.  But I do love looking at snowmen that other people make.  I like to make one or two if it isn't too cold outside (I'm such a wimp to cold weather).  So winter does give me more reasons to stay inside and stamp. 

So here is my version of the snowman.  I love the dazzling details on his hat and carrot nose.  It adds so much more to how cold the snowman needs it to stay alive.  The carrot nose is a small heart that I folded in half.  So clever if I do say so myself.  Now I have been making snowmen for awhile and this is the first year I have done this.  So who is going to burst my bubble and tell me that they have been doing it for a long time?

Again I am looking forward to seeing you make your own this Saturday.  Janice

Curvy box day 2

I hope you came back to see what the next curvy box would look like. 

Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer............................... 
The antlers are oak leaves and his ears are the acorns from the same die.  The eyes are circles punched out and then candy dots.  Now isn't he stinking cute?  Have you signed up for the class this Saturday?  You better hurry.  I only have 4 spots left.  Janice

Curvy Boxes Day 1

Have you used the curvy box framelit yet?  Well if you have not you have got to come to my technique class this Saturday, Nov. 1st.  The class is only $10.  Class starts at 9am but a few ladies sleep in a little and stroll in by 10:30am.  RSVP by Friday at 6pm so I have enough cardstock ready for you to create.

Today was my first day of really playing with it.  Well I could not stop.  I now have so many ideas I can't wait to put more together.  I put 5 together in a matter of a few hours.  So you will be able to put 4 boxes together in a matter of an hour and a half!!!!  Then duplicate them for your friends and family.  I will have more samples for you to see on Saturday.

Today I am just teasing you with just one of the adorable boxes.  Now how can you not want to come and make these????????

Isn't he just the most adorable penguin you have seen...........  And he is so easy to make.  Trust me.  Ok so this is just one of them.  Come back again tomorrow and I will post another one.  Janice

Stars

This card was a last minute design. Some times my last minute thoughts can make darn cute cards. This time I love this card. It was because I had my hostess club using a piece of glitter paper that was going to be mostly covered.  I can't waste beautiful paper. So this card used a star shape from that glitter paper before they put their other card together.

The trick was you cut out a smaller size star from the "Trim the Tree Designer Series Paper Stackable" which is on page 7 of the holiday catalog. Love this paper by the way. Then you put adhesive on the back of the slightly larger glitter star. Hold the glitter star behind the hole of the green star. Now lay them down on the front of the card. The green card should not be stuck. But you have the glitter star in the right place. I added the beautiful red satin ribbon (found on page 15 in holiday catalog).  Then I used dimensionals and popped the green paper. Now the glitter star shows through in the correct place.

I added the snow flake embellishment (on page 22) to finish the card. Now this would make a great easy but beautiful Christmas card.  Oh and to use everything I put the green star I cut out on the inside of the card. 

I will be placing my last order for October on Thursday night. So let me know what you need. You will have it by the 7th of November in time to complete your holiday cards with time to spare.

Email or call me. Stampingwithjaniceb@gmail.com or 262-498-4905.

Birthdays are so special

Making birthday cards is so fun. We all need lots of birthday cards. This one is so easy and can be for any age or sex. So enjoy making it. I encourage you to case it. Love the piece of wood on the bottom left. Gives it a little extra character. I stamped right on the wood with Stazon black.   What do you think?  Janice

Beautiful and elegant

I love the vanilla and black.  It makes the card have an elegant look. I love that Stampin' Up matching ribbons. This ribbon is the seam binding. It is easy to make a bow with it. Many of you don't like making bows. A little practice makes it easy. Janice

Sponge Daubers

My card today is from my card class from May. It was fun to watch everyone love making it.

I enjoy using my sponge daubers. Learning to use a circular motion makes the colors blend.   Janice

USA framed Art

Here is my latest framed art. I love making these. I hope you will join me and make this on Saturday, June 14th between 9 and noon.   Contact me to reserve a spot. Janice

Faux Tiles - Shadow Effect

This was a technique my friend Dianne, has asked me to do.  It is rather fun and easy.  I hope you will enjoy doing this at Saturday's Technique Geeks class. 

So what do you think of these cards?  Let me know.  Janice

Technique Geeks Class

This Saturday is another Technique Geeks.  This month the techniques are Faux Torn Mosaic.  It is a fun way to use up designer series paper.  Especially a piece you don't particularly like.  Here is a picture of the cards we will be making for that technique.  Contact me ASAP to get into the class.

We are using the new stamp set "Sweetie Pie".  It is a darling set.  Don't you want to join the class this Saturday to learn how to make this?  Contact me ASAP.  Janice

Spring Framed Art

This is one of my favorite classes.  When I made the Winter one it was a huge hit.  Many of my customers don't make much in gifts.  Well let's just say that this was made by all kinds of people.  I had people doing the card class at one table that said I know I did not sign up for that class but can I make one?  Well I quickly cut more pieces (and it was a good thing I had bought extra frames).  I gave a couple of them as Christmas gifts to a few people that do things for me (beautician, etc). 

Well now that Spring is around the corner I realized I needed to out do my Winter Framed Art.  Yikes.  But I believe I did.  I love this one.  I am offering the class in either Crisp Cantaloupe or Strawberry Slush.  So you can choose which will work for you. 

A few people have already asked if they can make it at Janice's Creating Crop Retreat.  So if they are signed up for that weekend event I am doing it for them at their convenience.  If you are not lucky enough to be coming to the Retreat, but would like to make it contact me and we can set up a time for you to make it.  The cost of the class is $20 for the first one.  After that it is $10. 

My favorite time of the year is Spring.  My birthday is close to Spring.  I love tulips and daisies.  I love the first sign of birds making their nests and talking up a storm.  (My cats have been trying to get into the windows to see the birds).  So I know Spring is right around the corner. 

In another month I will start working on a Summer Framed Art.  By June I will be offering that class.  Janice

Washi Tape

I love how this card turned out.  It is using the gold washi tape.  So simple to use and make a card so beautiful.  Now take a moment and decide do you want to make this card?  If you do you best contact me today so I can still fit you into the Retreat next Friday and/or Saturday. 

This card also uses my favorite "candy dots".  Now just because it is candy is not why I like it.  I like it because the candy dots are so simple to attach and put the final touch on so many cards.  Then to cut the flower out and pop it just adds so much pizzazz to it.  What do you think? Let me know what you think.  I also like getting responses so I know you are really reading this and enjoying it. Janice

For that Wild Man in your life

Do you know someone that loves motorcycles?  Well here is a card for him (or her). 

I love the thought of being on a motorcycle and being on the beach.  Ok so now you know a little more about me.  I love the beach.  I would prefer to be at the beach most of the day.  This card will show you how to do the mirrored effect.  It is quite easy.  This is another card that the participants at Janice's Creating Crop Retreat will be making.  If you have not signed up yet.  I suggest you contact me immediately.  Time is running out.  Janice

Raccoon Card

I love this card.  It is so simple yet so fun.  The teenagers in your life will love getting this card.  You can make this card into whatever occasion you want to.  I love the bright colors.  What do you think?

Sorry I cannot figure out how to turn it so you can see it better.  But you get the drift.  Isn't he cute?????
Now you know I have never said I was an expert at the computer or technical things.........  But I do love to make cards and other craft items.  Now that I am good at.  So plan to attend Janice's Creating Crop Retreat on Friday and/or Saturday, March 21st and 22nd.  Yes it can be 2 fun filled days of crafting.  You don't stamp or make cards or scrapbook. That is ok.  Come and sew, crochet, knit, etc.  Contact me for more details.  Janice

Scrapbook Pages #2

Glad to see you back today to see the next scrapbook pages I designed just for Janice's Creating Crop Retreat.  It is going to be a Retreat that will inspire and put a smile on everyone's faces all weekend long.  Yes ladies we are going to have fun!!!!

Now since I am having the Birthday Card Buffet at this Retreat, why not have a 2 page scrapbook layout.  I choose the colors so you can use it for any sex.  No discriminating here.

The banners are so fun.  And the cupcakes are so easy.  Candles and more candles as we get older........  These pages lend themselves to many different sizes of pictures.  Of course I think everyone should journal so so I left room for that too.  Now you have to decide which one you will be making.  Soccer or birthday or better yet both.  Janice

Janice's Creating Crop Retreat

This is going to be a blast.  I am so excited to have stampers and scrapbookers coming to this event.  I have some fun projects for those of you that have signed up to come.  The scrapbook pages were so much fun for me to design.  I loved making the soccer balls.  If you have someone that plays soccer in your family you will want to make these pages. 

 

I cannot wait to show you how I made the soccer balls......  You are going to have so much fun making these pages.

Check back tomorrow for the other scrapbook pages that will be available for you to make.  Janice
