I have so many things to share with you!  I have gotten behind on posting with so much going on here at home, and now I need to catch up!

Last week I had a Downline Get Together here.  We always have such a good time together!  We meet in the early evening and do our Make N Takes, and then we have dinner together!  Everyone contributes to the meal, which is great. Then we have a short business meeting, I give awards to those who have met their goals for the quarter, everyone shares what they have been doing in their businesses, swap cards.. It is a GREAT time!  This last time we even skyped one of my Downline who lives out of state!  That was so fun!

Our swaps were great, and I wanted to share them with you. Our theme was ANY HOLIDAY. 

This card was sent from Washington by Shaela.

This card was made by Suzanna.. she used the new My Digital Studio!

Michele sent this one from Maryland!  Isn't it beautiful?

Isn't this a great Halloween card sent from Iowa by Jo?

Sue made this great candy holder!  Aren't the googly eyes effective?

Oh dear.. I think Judy brought this cute snowman.. it's not signed on the back, and I can't remember for sure.. but it's pretty cute, don't you think?

I made this one! Do you like it?? I just love the new "Petals a Plenty" textured folder for the Big Shot that is in the new Holiday Mini Catalog!

And Kathie prepared a cupcake for each of us, in a great box!  YUM!

Wouldn't you love to join my team?  Just look at all the fun we have!  Let me know if you 

would like to learn more about becoming a Stampin' Up! demonstrator!

The Halloween BOO BANNER!

How adorable is this banner?  What a great decoration this would make for any home, office or classroom.  I'm offering it as a class in October, so keep an eye out for my newsletter with all the information (coming soon).  

Welcome to my first Kit in the Mail!  Do you live too far away or prefer to make this yourself?  Then the Kit in the Mail is for you! 

You will receive all the materials to make this adorable chipboard Halloween wall hanging.  It includes the Scalloped Chipboard pieces, Scalloped Cardstock pieces, Designer Series Papers (will vary by kit), Die Cut letters, ribbons (Orchard Ribbon Originals Ric Rac), safety pin and embellishments.  You will also receive either a Corduroy Pumpkin Pie button or brad or a Vanilla Hodgepodge Hardware Brad for the embellishment on the "B" section.

The instructions will be emailed to you and will include a "how to" on making this super quick bow.

I will take orders for the kits through October 15th and am planning to mail the kits no later than October 20th. 

There are also two great stamp sets that you could use for decorating the banner.  They are either "Extreme Elements" stamp set (pg. 81 in the catalog) or the Itty Bitty Backgrounds" (pg. 132 in the catalog).  You can see these sets below.  If you wish to purchase either of the stamp sets with your kit, please contact me for specific price information.  You can purchase the kit alone (with shipping or not) through my paypal links below.   

Each Banner kit alone is $18.00 (this includes shipping).  If you prefer to order the kit and come by to pick it up, the cost is $16.  You can make your choice on the above paypal link to order.  If you rather take the class with me, it will be a $15 class and you can get all the details from my October newsletter.

Feel free to contact me with any questions.
