Lauri's Stampin' Corner

My little sister will be celebrating her birthday while I'm in Colorado, so I had to make her a special birthday card before I leave tomorrow. I'm not able to take any of my supplies with me on the plane, and don't think I'll really have time while I'm there to do much besides chase kids anyway...which I'm looking forward to!! Poor Gabe fell and hurt his foot last night so after a trip to the emergency room, he's hobbling around on crutches. I think I might be able to keep up with him anyway! Ha! A fellow demonstrator shared last week how to emboss with the new Framelits Dies, and made such a beautiful card that I just had to CASE it! (That means copy and share everything!) I didn't change much at all on her card because it was so beautiful just the way it was! So here's a card like I'm sending to my little Sis, except hers says Happy Birthday along the bottom... I love all the texture lines and the dimension that the flowers have! And of cou

Over one hundred Valentines are ready for delivery to the nursing home here in Elko for My Golden Valentine. I've finally finished all of them and have them in the envelopes and ready to deliver! What fun it's been to get them all done and to work on them with Faith and explain to her where they're going and why. I pray that the receiver is as blessed receiving them as I have been in making them! Check out this pile! The last ones that I finished this morning are these bright and cheery ones... Ingredients: Stamps: Teeny Tiny Wishes, Candy Conversations Paper: Confetti White, Bashful Blue, Wild Wasabi, scraps of Real Red, Poppy Parade, Tempting Turquoise, Daffodil Delight, Wild Wasabi, Pale Plum Accessories: Big Shot, Square Lattice embossing folder, Heart to Heart Punch, Word Window Punch, Modern Label Punch, Dimensionals, Snail Adhesive All the hearts and tags were punched from scraps out of my scrap bin...no full sheets of paper were damaged in the making of these ca

I'm anxious to finish the Valentines and get on with some other projects. I'll be leaving on Saturday of this week to go to Colorado to welcome my new Granddaughter coming on the 6th! I'll be gone over Valentines Day, so I need to finish them up for My Golden Valentine...today if possible! I've piled up over 80 of them so far, so I'm getting there! Just a few more to go! What fun it has been to make them and to pray for the ones that will be receiving them. Katie's Bible study group at school, Agape, will be making deliveries for me. Bless them for taking the time to visit the nursing home! This one is pretty much a repeat from the Cherry Cobbler ones that I shared about a week ago. I changed the color and used a different letterpress plate on them. I sure do like the Razzleberry color! It's one that I don't pull out very often, but always really love it when I do. One of the differences in this card is the Heart Pressed Letterpress Plate and of course
