Since I don't have all of my supplies at hand right now, I am somewhat limited. But I got some good tips on SCS yesterday to keep the juices flowing..
I think I'll experiment with my Seaside Sketches with different painting/coloring combinations. Keep a supply on hand for future cards.
For Shapes and Shadows, I will cut out some stamped images to have some pop-ups for scrapbook pages later.
For Sincere Salutations, maybe I'll start a gift pack of cards; one with each salutation. This might be a good gift for Mother's Day. I have clear plastic boxes which will hold about 8 cards w/envelopes.
Wow! I'm glad I planned ahead. Now, I need some ENERGY since I'm home sick today with a nasty cold! The meds should be kickin' in at any time now Aimee J
I'm in between jobs and have this whole week to myself with nothing that I HAVE to do. I stamped from 7:30 to 4:30 yesterday and had to force myself to put my things away. I thought it might be a good idea to shower before I went to Bunco! (I'm way to addicted to this stuff!)
I love the gift pack idea for the Sincere Salutations! Thanks!

Hope you're feeling better!
ok, what is BUNCO? Is it a card game...if so where are the rules...I had a friend who moved to the STates and I am pretty sure this was what she got hooked on....does it take time away from stamping???

Oh, I almost forgot. They may come in packs of 100 or 500? But the price isn't bad, if I remember correctly. AND it's great if you share the order with a couple of friends.
My Stampin Table has some scrapbook pages to be done today. Easter pages for DS and DD, first haircut for DD, and working on my journaling for my Europe scrapbook.
I'm toying with the retired set "Friends" because it is April, Easter cards went out last month, and I have always wanted to send a card in April about rain (April showers) to be followed up in May with (what else) FLOWER CARDS!
Beside the list of things I ordered last night (green with envy are you?), I have Simple Shapes to make personalized stationary. I'm going with pink and brown inks.
Mine has stuff to work out my April workshop idea's. Any help out there? I'm stuck. But I do know I will be using "When I grow up." I just love that set. I want to have something that can be used for Mothers Day or something else for those who've unfortunetly lost their mom.
I too, am getting ready for stamp camp. I'll put together 3 cards and the two majorly requested "projects" that we will do. They all want to know how to do a spiral note book and I'm going to add a decorated pen as well. I just don't know if I should do a beaded pen or a stuff the decorated paper in the barrel pen. I could make either look just fine. Opinions? Oh, and this is the last one for this stretch for this group so I'd like to make it really nice! I know they are all coming back but still!
For those who asked about bunco .... what is it anyway? Check out this website. Bunco is my reason to hang out with 11 other women once a month for socializing, food and fun!

Check out www.ClearBags.com. They are great boxes and I tie them w/grosgrain ribbon for gift giving.
I went on to www.clearbags.com & could not find that size that you noted, & could not find the size 5 7/8 x 4 1/2. I would like to buy some, but not sure which size to click.
They are there. Look under 4 1/2 by 5 7/8 (rather than the other way around.) There are two kinds; one with a 2 in depth and the ones I use has a 1/2 inch depth. This is a good size for 6-8 cards w/envelopes.
on my stamp table is summer by the sea, winged things, sincere salutations, wonderfol words II, perfect party, and something to celebrate. I was makin' invitations for DD's b-day party, and a TLC06 card, and just playing. I had fun last night!

Bunko is a dice game, I belong to 2 different groups (so I go twice a month) very fun! Easy to play and a great get out of jail free card...
for my stamping table:
all the makings of a 6x6 theme scrapbook from the cruise I took in 1989 for high school graduation with my family and friends...I took all the photos out of the magnetic album and to my surprise I found that I had journaled on the back of most of them! So excited that I did that then. :o I guess I was a true scrapper at heart, even back then.
My classic ink pad caddy, paper scrap holder, cutter, tool kit, tape, three things of grosgrain ribbon, 2 hermafix dispensers (you can't run out and have to re-load mid project)...pretty clean now that I think of it.
The FLOOR however, that is a different story...

I have Cool Cat as I was making a Color Combo Challenge Card and Canvas Background on my stampin desk. Lately I don't even put the Canvas away I just use it over and over [/url]
I have some baby stamps on my table as I'm playing with the ideas on the baby shower "Thank you" cards at the mo... Add my markers, double sided tape, pop dots, assorted cardstock and you'll get the picture :o) It's not a mess, though, I don't make them even when I'm in the middle of a project - just call me anally clean :o) LOL :o)

Currently on my craft table I have......
My Shapes & Shadows and i'm making Bday cards for all my friends and family in April. I am also playing with my Fishy Friends- it is such a cute set on waterfall cards!
I was just finishing cutting cardstock for my Stamper's 10 group tonight. We are playing with Brayers and Spectrum pads, i'm also teaching how to do faux wood and crinkled inks technique. My cards are super cute and i'll be putting them into the gallery tomorrow.
All the techniques that I want to try from Technique Junkies and any other new techniques that I found over the net. I am dying to try the Faux Oil Painting technique by Michelle. I have my Butterfly Shadows, and Sizzix stamp sets out as I was making cards for customers. Then I have my Bazzill cardstock out and was organizing it. I have my melting pot out to do some projects, and then have stamp pads and reinkers on the table as well, it's reinking time! It's a big office desk. Then I have new unmounted stamps that I need to cut out and put in CD discs.
Busy, Busy, Busy!

I got the clear boxes from imressrubberstamps.com
Click on Market Place, click on Packaging and it will be in the middle of the 2nd row.
The "large" boxes are 10 to a pkg for 5.00. Dimensions are 4 1/2" x
5 7/8" x 1". I have fit 10 cards w/envelopes in a box. They are very nice people to deal with and service is quick.
I have Versamark in black (I didn't know it came in black I ment to get clear so don't know the difference between versamark in black and regular black ink)
I have card stock scraps also.
I have some scrap book pictures I have done as well as 2cards I made.
In the corner is a wishlist along with my mp3player reminding me I need to get off my butt and walk.
Woohoo! On my stamping table right now is 15 new stamp sets just waiting to be mounted and stamped into my category binder and organized with the rest of my sets. Mr Brown just brought them 2 hours ago and I can't wait until the kids are in bed tonight so I can get cutting. I let my one-year-old skip her afternoon nap so she'll go to bed earlier!
I need some ENERGY since I'm home sick today with a nasty cold!
Hi!
What a coincidence! I was home yesterday and today for the same reason! I just about slept around the clock! Sooo achy with chills and fever...but feeling better this evening, so I'm going in tomorrow.
When I get back to my stamping table, I want to play with Balmy Breezes! I've had it for a couple of weeks, but haven't done much with it yet.
