Spring Shadow Box Card

Today, I'm made a Spring Shadow Box Card to get my mind off of my Sammy (6 year old beagle) who is having eye surgery.  I dropped him off about 9:30 AM this morning.  I have one more hour until I can call the vets to see how he's doing and when I can pick him up.

He has what is called 'Cherry Eye'.  It's when a beagle's tear gland, swells adn pops out.  It is reddish and is the size of a pea.  It's been out for 7 weeks now, that is why we are having it surgically fixed.  It is inflamed and bothering my poor little one.  Sammy has been so good for 7 weeks as I drop eye drops in his eyes 2 times a day, but the drops didn't help... 

Please say a prayer for him.  If this doesn't work, we will have to have his tear gland removed, but then there is a chance he will get 'dry eye', which as you can image, wouldn't be good for a doggie... He would need drops in his eyes often.... to keep them moist.  But I am not going to think about that. I'm hoping this surgery will do the trick and he will be A-Okay!

This is only the second time he had a Cherry Eye, the other time the gland went back into his eye socket after a few days.

Here is Sammy and below is the card I just made to try to pass the time... until I can call to see how he did... Billy and I have been hugging each other all day missing this little bugger! But soon he will be back home :)

Have a great evening!

Stamper's Showcase - Bleaching Technique Card By Vicky

This card was made by: Vicky Billero

She noticed that when you bleached Melon Mambo cardstock you get the Stampin' Up! Barely Banana color!  So she incorporated Barely Banana cardstock in her card. 

She also has her heart on a string, so it spins :)

AWESOME Creation Vicky!!!

Love, Love Love it!!!!

Have an awesome day!

Love Sparkles All Weekend Long

Tomorrow starts three days of my Love Sparkles Card Classes.  All of the cards will be created using the Love Sparkles Simply Scrappin' Kit from Stampin' Up!

My table is set for tomorrow morning (my first class) and I'm so excited.

I created many samples for them to CASE or get ideas from:) 

On Sunday, I'll be packaging up my Stationary Card Pouches and mailing them to unsuspected family and friends!  Who knows, maybe you're on my list!?!?!

 

Here is a little better view of the card samples I made:)

Here are sample Stationary Card Pouches ready to be mailing out on Monday to family & friends. 

My Customers will be learning how to create these unique Stationary Card Pouches so they too can enjoy and share them with their family and friends!

Stamping is such a wonderful and contagious illness!  These cards will become:

- Valentine Cards

- Birthday Cards

- Anniversary Cards

- Thinking of You Cards

- Get Well Cards

- and more...

They will go home with the rest of their Love Sparkles Simply Scrappin' Kit with LOADS of extra products to continue creating cards and Stationary Pouches!   

The finished product will look similar to this with three cards on each side and six Whisper White Envelopes in the middle of the fold.  I had some sweet Pea Stitched Felt flowers I added to my Stationary Card Pouches, but they are not included in this class, I used them all up... oops:)  I need to order more!

Don't forget you can order 24/7 HERE but if your order is over $50 contact me to be SURE you receive YOUR FREE Sell-A-Bration Gift through March 31, 2010!
