The Curiosity of a Three Year Old

As every parent will know, when one of your kids is being a little too quiet, you don’t walk, you run to see what they’re up to.  More often than not, it usually means they’re doing something they shouldn’t.  That was the case for me this afternoon.  Our three year old had disappeared and was just a little too quiet.  We found him chilling out in my office...along with this….


and this…

oh, and this…


Um, yaaa..all those white little confetti looking bits...all stuck to my hardwood floor....those are all Stampin’ Dimentionals.  If you’re not familiar with Dimentionals, they’re double sided sticky foam dots that Stampin’ Up! sells to use on projects to pop paper layers and embellishments up off the page for a little dimension.  Yes, every.single.white.dot is stuck to my floor.  *sigh*.  Kids...you gotta love them. ;)

Fun Florals

One of the many perks of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator is the opportunity I have to attend various events specifically for demonstrators.  One of those events is a local get-together organized by a couple Vancouver Island demonstrators.  We meet twice a year for some business chit chat, great food, and of course STAMPING!!!  (Watch for an upcoming post showcasing some of the amazing projects I got to stamp!) We also sign up for card swaps which is a great way for me to obtain a collection of card and project samples for my display board - to show YOU of course!!!  We also have a "show & tell" table set up for various projects that we've come up with and would like to share.  One of the cards I saw was so cute that I knew I just had to come home and recreate it with products I had here.  SO, here it is!

 

Isn't it adorable?  It's a gate fold card and has three little 3-D flowers which add just the right amount of dimension!  Here's a closer view of the flowers:


I absolutely love this!  It's so simple too!  This is one of the projects I'm going to be doing with my Stampers 6 Club tomorrow evening.  I'd love to show you and some friends how to make this adorable card!  Call me to book a workshop and I would be happy to demonstrate it for you!

Happy Stamping!
