Guest Stamper, Debbie O

Wednesday, June 15, 2022

My guest stamper for today is Debbie O,

Debbie made these darling cards that duplicate as gift card holders

I mean, seriously, these are soooo cute!

She used the SUNNY SPLASH stamp set.

Debbie also shared this adorable thin note pad holder using the WHAT'S COOKIN' Bundle (retired)

Debbie gifted one of these note pads to me and I absolutely love it!! I hate to use it, it's so cute!

On the vacation front: yesterday (Wednesday) we ventured back to Jekyll Island. We had a 12:00 reservation for a dolphin cruise. But while we waited for that, we took a private horse drawn carriage ride around the historical district of the island. This island had the richest inhabitants here. The "cottages" that they built we would call a mansion. Think JP Morgan, Rockefeller, Pulitzer, Vanderbilt, Goodyear (not the tires), Marshall Field, just to name a few.

This is where the Federal Reserve was created/launched

Very interesting history - I hope I can retain it all for my scrap books.

This home is called Moss Cottage - they thought that there must be an interesting story behind the color of paint they chose for it, but come to find out he was just a Green Bay Packers Fan!!

Moss Cottage was built for William Struthers Jr. in 1896. It was later occupied by George Henry Macy, Kate Carter Macy, and William Kingsland Macy.

The dolphin cruise was lovely, but we only saw a few dolphins. I was hoping to see some jump from the water like you see on TV, but we did see a mom and baby. Hard to get photos

We searched to see the dorsal fin pop above the surface

And this is the only half-way decent picture we could get.

Pierced Blooms

Thursday, April 14, 2022

I am not one to watch the statistics, but when I saw another demonstrator post how many subscribers she has and that it reached over 100,000 it gave me thought to check on mine. My blogspot does not show me how many subscribers that I have but it does show me how many views I have had since starting to blog. I was shocked to be over ONE MILLION VIEWS!! That was very exciting to me.

Did you know that you can subscribe to get my blog post directly to your inbox every time that I post?

On the right side of my blog post it says "subscribe". All you do is add your email to that spot and then they will send you a verification to your email. It's as simple as that.

If you are receiving this as an email that I sent to you, you can check out my blog posts at christicreativecrew.blogspot.com and check out the subscribe option.

Here are two more of the cards that we made this week at the Come Stamp With Me Class last Tuesday

I'm super excited that the Polished Pink Open Weave Ribbon is STAYING for another year in the annual catalog! This is super yummy and so easy to make bows with. It's not too thick so it will not add bulk to your card, therefore it will not cost more for mailing it out.

Here is a tip: See the little rhinestones on the flower centers? They REALLY add to the beauty of the card, but these could cause your mailing cost to go up. COULD, but I have received MANY cards with rhinestones and pearl, etc on them and I normally do not need to add more postage nor have I been required to pay a little extra to receive it.

What I like to do is either add a quarter sheet of card stock (4-1/4 x 5-1/2) to the front of the card so that the rhinestones do not poke through the envelope. (I have received MANY cards with them poking through).

Your second option is to fold your card inside out, giving cushion for the embellishments.

Don't you just love a good tip!!

The black and white check designer paper is from PATTERN PARTY - a hostess exclusive product. It is a HUGE pack of paper - 48 sheets for only $18 when you choose it as a part of your hostess rewards

You gain hostess rewards when your product reaches $150.00

The ELEGANT TAG PUNCH is on the LAST CHANCE LIST.

The PIERCED BLOOMS DIES are one of my favorites, but nothing lasts forever, right? They are on the LAST CHANCE LIST. Grab them before they are gone!

Card #2

EVERYTHING on this card is retired or on the LAST CHANCE LIST (except for the Smoky Slate and Real Red for card base and 1st layer as well as the Sahara Sand for the tag, Soft Suede for the cutting board and Basic Black for the utensils.

The main Designer Paper that looks like a brick(ish) wall is from IN GOOD TASTE. This is another large pack of paper, but it is available to everyone, (not just a hostess).

The black and red plaid designer paper is from one of the Christmas packs of paper that we could get for FREE during the July/August Sale-a-bration. I loved this plaid so ended up with several packs of this paper.

I sure do wish that the tiny heart shaped embellishments would return to our line-up. I'm glad that I stocked up on those as well.

This card was inspired by Akiko Sudano on Pinterest

Such a fun stamp set!

This one is called WHAT'S COOKIN'

I think this will be a great card to send someone when you are gifted with a meal, etc.

At our church we support one another by supplying meals for those who are in need.

Most recently we brought in a meal to a family where the mom is undergoing chemo therapy.

It is such a joy to serve others.

Dale and I have been on the receiving end of meals on several occasions over the years from when we had a new baby or recently when I had to undergo several surgeries.

This card was inspired by Cheri

Colors: Basic White and Petal Pink (5-1/2" x 3-3/4")

Pattern Party DSP & Basic White cut with the Stitched So Sweetly Dies

JUST A HEADS UP: THE PATTERN PARTY DESIGNER PAPER PACK IS A HOSTESS EXCLUSIVE ITEM AND WILL NO LONGER BE AVAILABLE AFTER THIS ANNUAL CATALOG, WHICH ENDS APRIL 30TH.

Ink: Poppy Parade, Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green, Petal Pink

Black & White Twine from the PLAYFUL PETS COMBO PACK
