Dawns Sunday Share 7-31-11

Hi Stampers :

Happy Sunday friends !

Oh my goodness  this past week My hubby  got my bluetooth on my car hooked up to my phone .. WOW thats amazing . Have  you ever  talked to your car while driving  down the road . I mean  the person your talking to on the phone  is talking to you  through  your car speakers ? It's  sooo  freaky cool .

Then while  we were driving down the road  and my car speaks  to tell me there is road construction  ahead  in 3 miles .. Are you serious ?  The car is just amazing !

Another cool feature on my car is  when I get out there is a  little thumb pad on the door handle  where I  just  put my thumb and it locks the doors and as long as I have the remote  I just have  to  go up to the door  and  open handle  without  actually  unlocking it .

Jessie is down to her last week or so  of Cosmetology school  and  then its off to State boards . She is very excited  to get her license and start  working in a  salon .

Here is my Sunday share video for you

 

Enjoy  your  Sunday friends I will see you all again tomorrow

Until later.. Happy Stampin!

Hi Stampers :

Happy Sunday Friends !

This last week Jessie  was finishing her scrapbook for her boyfriend ( Tyler ) and I made a  short video of her putting the pages together. What a silly girl  our Jessie is . Check out that video of her below  .

If you subscribe to my  blog feed  via email please click HERE to view  todays  blog post with videos.

This past Wednesday  my hubby bought me a brand new 2012 Buick LaCrosse . Jessie got in an accident with my last car close to 2 years ago.

Click HERE to see those pics  ....

 
Since hubby has been back home  from Iraq  he uses  the truck  to go to work unless  we have a good weather day and then he rides  the Harley  anywho . He thought it was  due  for me to have my own car again :)  Is he AWESOME or what ?

Click on any photo to enlarge your viewing

I  will be getting the  crome wheels  and  winter floor mats  tomorrow  which  they didn't have  at the time  since the car is  a 2012 .

The Photo above is me with Dave  who took care of us . He was  really  great  and even gave me a rose when he presented me with the keys  to my brand new car.

 
This car is sooo amazing  and has very single thing you could get on it . I think the only thing it can't do is drive itself LOL !

Here is  the Video of Jessie  acting silly  when  adding the pics to her scrapbook  and also my Sunday Share  video for you . She is  such a  cutie pie ( Well both girls are cutie pies .. Just sayin lol )  .

 

 

 

Have a Fabulous Sunday Friends !

Convention 2011 Highlights #1

Hi Stampers :

Happy Wednesday friends !

Today I wanted to share a few  photos  from convention . What a Great time we had  and it was by far the BEST Convention ever .

The top photo is a  gift we recieved  when we went  on the VIP Riverton Campus tour Yes  the home office  for  our beloved  Stampin'Up!  Inside the  goodie bag was a  roll of Island Indigo 3/8" Ruffled Ribbon  with  yummy carmels . Love love love the  beautiful hand stamp tag  that  was attached to this adorable bag of  goodies .

The next Photo is of  the card I  recieved  from Chad Richards  that he made .. YES  he made it I even confirmed  this with his beautiful wife ( see photo of us  above )  We were dinner mates on the Alaska Cruise ( see photo~  Chad is directly behind me with his wife )  and  we  got to meet up again at convention  what a sweet sweet family .   I love your card  Chad.

Next  card I recieved is from  my" SAM" Felicia  such a sweet card  and  even sweeter note inside . Thank you so much Felicia ~  I miss you already !

Next photo is of Jason and I  at convention .. Funny  story~ When Jessie and Rich when zip lining in Alaska  Jason  and  Sage  went  with them as well BUT Rich didn't know Sage was Shelli Gardner's Daughter  and Jason  was  Shelli's Son in law ..

Yes Rich even tried to recruit Sage before he knew who she was  :)  

How funny is that LOL !

They hit it off  on the zip line  and  by the end of the zip line trip Rich knew who they were  and we laugh about it all know . So needless  to say  since I didnt  go  on the zip line I needed  a photo of Jason  too . What a Great guy  and  Rich  gave Jason a nick name  which we will keep between us  LOL .

Another  awesome face to face  meeting at Convention was meeting Whitney

Who's Whitney ?

Well let me  tell you ~   the week before I left for convention I had  called  Demonstrator support  and Whitney answered my call  as I was  telling her  what I was calling about  She  quickly  says Are  you  Dawn Griffith with  a Blog ?  Yes  that's me .. Whitney  then says  that her Mom  visits my blog all the time  How  Awesome is that !!! 

What a Surprise  when we were checking out at  the Memento Mall at convention Guess who I got  to meet face to face ???

WHITNEY!! 

Here  is the pic we snapped  for  both of us and  her Momma !

Ok one more  favorite photo of mine from Convention  It's my Supporting demonstrator :) . Doesn't he look cute  with all those beautiful flowers .  Such a  sweetie pie ~  He even went  shopping  for the  girls in line  waiting to check out at the memento mall .

Have a Fabulous Wednesday Friends !

Until later.. Happy Stampin!

Key to my heart ..

Hi Stampers :

Happy Tuesday friends !

Todays  project I will be posting a video on Friday  so I will save all the  details  till then .. But lets just say I am calling this  project video Trash  to Treasure & Friday  you  will see why I am using  the unusual  name LOL ! 

Have a Fabulous Tuesday friends .

Snow Much Fun !

Hi Stampers :

Happy Monday friends !

Oh my goodness I have been in  a Christmas  state of mind  since the new catalog has been released  with sooo many amazing Christmas sets ~  I can't  help myself  .

This set is sooo cute and its called Snow Much Fun

• (w) # 122560
• (c) # 122562

The great thing about the main image on my card  today is that both images ( the Christmas tree and  Snowman )  both fit on the Clear block  letter E # 118484 at the same time ...How easy is that .

I used  the new In color Lucky Limeade card stock # 122926   for the  card base and the  IN color  designer paper pack # 122384 in Lucky Limeade as well as well the  the new Designer  Printed Brads # 122940.

 Oh my  it's been awhile since I used my Dazzling Diamonds # 102023  so I had to add lots of the sparkle to my super cute snowman .

I used the Modern Label  punch # 119849  to punch out greeting then used the Movers & Shapers Punch windows  ( set of 4)  # 115953  with  Lucky Limeade and the Big Shot

 Markers used  to color  the main image are as follows :

• Lucky Limeade #123002 ( New In color pack of 5  )
• Pretty in Pink #100045
• Bashful Blue #105111
• Certainly Celery # 105106
• Chocolate Chip # 100071
• Black #100082
• Cherry Cobbler # 119681

Sweets for the Sweet ...

Hi Stampers :

Happy Wednesday friends !

Have I mentioned lately  how much I love the  new In color  Wisteria Wonder .. OH my  this color looks amazing with the Concord Crush too I might add LOL

 I thought I would make a card using the  new Fabulous color  along with the New Wisteria Wonder 3/8"  Ruffled Ribbon # 122973

Love this ribbon . I was seriously  wondering where the ribbon  on THIS  card that  SU! sent me came from .. Low and behold It was a new  ribbon  that was coming out .. SURPRISE!!

The Stamp set is called Sweets for the Sweet

• (w) # 122510
• (c)# 122512

I used the 1" circle punch # 119868 for the greeting  then  the 1 1/4" circle punch # 119861  with the Wisteria Wonder card stock #122922   then the 1 3/4" Scallop circle punch # 119854  in Whisper white # 100730

The Wisteria Wonder In Color designer paper pack 122384 was also used for the background .

Plus did you notice the Brand new Designer Printed  Brads # 122940 I used in the center of the pin wheels. FABULOUS  brads !! ( Love it ) 

Have a Wonderful Wednesday Friends !

 Oh my goodness I love this set .. It's such a  beautiful stamp set . Just love the main image on the card .

I did  reverse masking  for the  background around the main image .

What I used was the rubber  that  was left over from my clear stamp set and  just laid the  rubber over top of the stamped  image and sponged  around inside  of the rubber  with Crumb Cake ink # 121030

I used Cherry Cobbler marker # 119681 & Certainly Celery marker # 105106  to color the  berries and leaves.

 I added  some Glimmer Basics  brads # 121003 in Black  & finished off the card by tieing  some 1/2 Seam Binding  ribbon in Crumb cake # 122332.
