Cupcakes Scrapbook page

Hi All,

I created this layout for the moms & cupcake class featuring the build a cupcake stamp set and coordinating punch. The cheerful treat designer paper is one of the many hostess sets you can earn when hosting a party.  The colors on this page is so girly! I can't wait to take pictures with my daughter and her friends at the new cupcake store in our area!

I have a few more layouts to post, so come back soon and Happy Stampin!

And since it is the holiday of love, sign up for my newletter on the left bar, leave a comment or become a fan on my facebook page and I will pick a winner for a LOVE Designer Series paper pack!

Hello all, I just realized I never posted some of the projects we did at my open house on January 27th.  A few stampers and I created a Perpetual Calendar.  I was thrilled that they loved it- and it was a quick and easy project.    I trul love getting together chatting and creating in the process!

Afterwards we created these cards:

How sweet are these?  These are created with Stampin Up's treat cups with a little door inside the card.  The ribbon holds the door in place, so you recipient does not have to tear the card apart to get to the candy!

As you may have seen from previous posts, I am co-hosting an All Day Crop next month.  I have to start preparing for it.  So I am asking all of you- What do you like about All Day Crops? 
What type of classes do you enjoy?

Best Wishes,
