I've scheduled an event where we can make some of the cards that I made at Leadership. If you purchase the bundle through me, the "class" is free. (If you're curious, you can check out my events page.) We'll also have a couple of bonus projects. One that I thought would be fun to recreate was this Jar of Cards. Especially with Valentine's Day tomorrow and my parents' anniversary today (Happy

What a tease, eh? Simply Sent Kits are not only easy and quick, but they make great homemade gifts to give away or to keep for yourself. I love this new kit because it comes with materials to make a card box along with 10 cards and coordinating envelopes. Here is a sample from my upcoming class.The class cost is the purchase order amount for the Kit and Basic Jewel Accents from me. The

Before I get into My Digital Studio and Stampin' Up! Promos, did you know that today was Valentine's Day? Yup...for the Kim Family, today was our Valentine's Day--the day of expressing love. Woke up and found that my husband had already packed the kids' lunches and even wrote each kid a little love note. LOVE! Husband went shopping for the kids' gifts secretly. LOVE.--while I was at home pouting

But a jar of candy just didn't cut it, so I added these lollies: She's a fellow demonstrator so I know she'll appreciate the touches. But I think all of us appreciate anything homemade! Thanks for

That's what my little Riley does! But what I really wanted to share was how we melted broken crayons into heart shaped reusable crayon and made it work onto a postcard. Riley and I made these valentine's for her class. I thought it would be fun to stamp an image that they could color in and what better to color with than our heart-shaped rainbow crayon. (Yes, she was cranking out the hearts

Its Day 2 and still not getting much rest, but I am having fun! Today's classes were amazing! Great creative ideas, fun business tools, and mixing with other demonstrators.

After a long day's trip to San Antonio, I tried to check into my hotel at 11 o'clock in the evening! The hotel had overbooked and so relocated me to another hotel until today! Fortunately, the staff and manager of the hotel have been quite gracious and leaving me a special peace offering: It was a very nice surprise. Oh, but don't worry, I will be asking for more compensation. I love food but

What a night! I have too much fun with the girls at stamp club. Our projects this month were inspired by Valentine's Day projects. What do you think of this mini heart scrapbook? Thanks to Meg Loven, another SU demonstrator, for the inspiration. As part of the journaling, lyrics were added. You could add more elements but I wanted to keep it simple. Another fun treat is this "sour cream"

Are you loving the Occasions Mini Catalog?! Today's inspiration comes directly from the catalog on pg.18.

Here's another peek at the Sweet Cake set. You know how little boys (or girls, I won't be discriminative) trade baseball cards? I swap handmade cards.  Silly or smart? I think its a little bit of both. I get ideas and inspiration from others and to get a card that you probably would never have thought of or just a twist on something is fun to receive.

It was a fun night for our Creative Souls, my creative Stamp Ink Divas group. We decided to get together in honor of Christmas. It was really nice to see everyone (minus a few members). We worked on the Christmas Keepsake Card Box as our project that evening.But we needed some delicious snacks, so I baked some cookies and then stamped them while still hot with our sweet pressed cookie stamps.

Today's inspiration comes from the Idea Book and Catalog. When I first saw this Button Buddies stamp set, I knew I had to have it in my collection. It is perfect for all occasions. In honor of our countdown til Christmas, I made a series of these to use as tags. I made them mostly with buttons because they are just so cute. But I also made some without to show you how cute it is on its own

You see projects and think, I love that and gotta try it. But how many times do we actually follow through? So today and every Mondays here on out, will be replicas of cards or projects that I LOVE and want/need to replicate for my own. Today's inspiration comes from the Holiday Mini Catalog on page 6 and from a fellow demonstrator, Patty Bennett. I took what I saw and melded them together.

In September, my fearless leader for the Ronald McDonald House Charity lost her fight with cancer. Karen Moody was such a wonderful, sweet, generous, and very creative person. I feel blessed to have known her and if it weren't for Stampin' Up!, I would have never had the chance to meet her. I'm thankful for the friends I have met and will continue to meet through our creativity. As the holidays

If you know Gwen Stefani, you know the line that she has...Harajuku Lovers: a fun, hip, and whimsical line! I decided to take one of her Harajuku girls and make it my inspiration for a punch art card swap. Using the 3/4" Circle, Owl, Wide Oval, and Word Window Punches, I was able to create the girl. The body was punched with the Wide Oval. Then, the oval was reinserted into the punch and trimmed

 September's stamp club focused on some fun ideas for Halloween. We also made a cute 3x3 note card but of course, I can't find it. I did, however, find this! The idea came from Shelli Gardner, Stampin' Up!'s co-founder. We did a more simplified version of her's. (The white specks look more like dust than glitter in the picture.) I plan on filling them with treats as it gets closer to Halloween.

Some of my Creative Souls (Stamp Ink Divas) and I drove to Henderson, NV and just had the most fabulous time crafting and meeting lots of creative people. This is what I made to swap.

(I'll post the cards that I receive when I get them back.) I say prototype because I realized I didn't have enough of the wonderful twinkling sheets (silver glimmer paper) so I skipped that and replaced with glass glitter for my

Our annual trip includes the Georgia Aquarium--the largest aquarium in the world and the Coca Cola Museum--the kids love that they can taste all the different sodas from all over the world.

Since becoming a mommy, I think I've lost a few brain cells because I can't seem to remember things as clearly as I had before. BUT I clearly remember this day, 7 years ago, when we were blessed with our baby girl. It was 4 o'clock in the morning and my water had broke. We desperately needed to find someone to watch Ian for us so we could get to the hospital. Fortunately, our good friends woke up

But I had to make this MDS page: My kids have been fascinated with a show called, Dual Survival. Basically, two men are placed in different scenarios and they teach you how to survive. My kids (including the hubby) decided to show their skills by eating ants. YES, they actually ate

When I have workshops, I like to thank my hostesses with a little handmade gift. So for Lisa's workshop this past weekend, I made her a little box filled with small note cards using quite a few of the new products for 2011-2012 Catalog. It's also important in how it is presented, so I made a fabric flower brooch and attached it to the top of the box (using our Fun Flowers Die and the Big Shot).

I finally made a page with Joelle's letter to Crumpet. Early May, we helped babysit a puppy named Crumpet (donated for our school's fundraiser, a Ladies Tea). He was going to be auctioned off the next day. Well, the kids fell in love with him, especially Joelle. (The one that loves animals but has major allergic reactions to them.)

This past Memorial Weekend was quite a busy yet fun-filled weekend for our family. Our cousin's fiance, Melissa, graduated from Loma Linda Medical School. Then, they were married up at Lake Arrowhead the next day. The weather couldn't have been nicer, and the wedding ceremony was just beautiful. Wedding Card by Instagram App for Iphone In honor of their blessed union, I made this wedding card

I got this layout idea from Papercrafter's Library. Why I liked it so much is because it helps show how you can take a 6" x 6" page and add it to an 8-1/2" x 11" page. And then finally, add to a 12" x 12" page. I love how this page perfectly captures Riley's 5th Birthday cake. The story behind this DELICIOUS cake is that she had circled it in a magazine! She likes to circle clothes that she

I have so many pictures that my computer is about to bust! So, I decided to capture some of them and make them into My Digital Studio pages. I love the action shot of Joelle practicing her kick before actually breaking the board to pass her test. Needless to say, she's ready to start on her next belt test. Black belt here we come!

I fell in love with the Petal Cone Die when I first saw it in our catalog! I love the versatility of this pattern and how easy it is to use with the Big Shot.

Now that the Ladies Tea is over, I've been able to get my act together and actually download a few projects that I've worked on for the Ronald McDonald House Charity. But before I share the projects, I wanted to wish all the mothers a Happy Mother's Day and share with you this verse:  Real Mothers Real Mothers don't eat quiche; they don't have time to make it.

I have been breathing, eating, and living this fundraiser for my children's school. It's going to be a Ladies Tea where we not only get to be pampered by the men from our school (teachers, husbands, and even some of our own sons) but we get to shop, eat delicious food, and enjoy each other's company. We have been working with each classroom on an art project to auction off and this is the 3rd

Now that the kids are a little bit older, we have been taking them to the mountains during the winter. Mammoth Lakes is about a 5 hour drive from where we live so we thought that it would be perfect for some spring skiing. My youngest, Riley, was somewhat apprehensive about attending ski school by herself but look at her now! This was all done with My Digital Studio and yes, during my trip!  {

Yes, I am a fan of Hello Kitty. It's just too cute!!! And I am so glad that my youngest daughter, Riley, is in love with Hello Kitty too. Here's another previous project. For my Valentine's Day present, my hubbie bought this polaroid camera for me. Yes, who uses polaroids now but I wanted to use it for a special mini scrapbook album that I have planned. The Hello Kitty film and stickers are

I shared with you the 3" x 3" note cards we made for spring during this last workshop, but we also made "chocolate cake".  Okay, its not chocolate cake but I kept on calling this card just that during my workshop.

Happy Valentine's Day to you all! Today, I wanted to share some Valentine's Day gifts we made for Ian and Joelle's class and little treats for my three munchkins.  Ian's class will be getting Sponge Bob silly bands but we wanted to dress it up somehow. Then, Ian suggested making Sponge Bob out of punches. So we went at it and came up with this: We didn't have time to duplicate 26 of them, so I

As I have been organizing and redecorating my studio, I have decided to go with a bird theme. (Surprise, surprise.)  I found these bird cages for a great deal and knew I could use them somehow. But it was missing something, so what better than . . . birds. I didn't want just any bird. I wanted chubby, fat PAPER birds.   Bird One was made using a template from Stampin' Up! For the template,
