‘Tis the Season!

Thank-you-banner-cardIt's the season of gift giving, which can also translate to the season of thank you cards!

This was a fun, easy thank you card that I put together for my dentist :)  Yes, I thank my dentist….actually, B&N Dental had a client event where we all got to go and watch Happy Feet 2 in a private, early morning screening! (and yes, my son had popcorn…I couldn't quite manage that though!)

I love the combination of Stampin' Up!'s Pacific Point and Tempting Turquoise colours. The Petite Pennants Builder Punch coordinates with the Pennant Parade stamp set and the Big Shot Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder make this card fun (and easy!). Hemp twine and stampin' dimensionals add an extra element to the card.

I'm looking forward to getting together with a few of my demonstrator team this weekend! It's always fun to get together and share ideas and inspiration. I'm also going to be getting some work done for my Inbox Inspiration program that I'll be starting in the new year – be sure to check back here at www.yamstamps.com for more information as it is revealed!

Lest We Forget

DspoppylogoTaking a moment to reflect and be grateful on this Remembrance Day 11-11-11.

I was fortunate as a teenager to be able to travel to Europe with the Burlington Teen Tour Band to participate in the 40th Anniversary of D-Day.  To stand on the beaches and in the graveyards there made a huge impact on me.  One of the things I remember most is that we were the same age as many of the fallen in the graveyard – nothing like a little check of how fortunate we are because of what they did.

Lest We Forget.

FYI……I’m on TV again! (for real, this time….LOL)

So my appearance on FYI was postponed and it will be tonight at 6:25 pm! I thought I had managed to reschedule the blog posting, but apparently I had some technical difficulties and it appeared on the original date. Oops.  Anyway, the spot I did on "FYI" for Cogeco cable TV – channel 23 in the Burlington/Oakville/Flamborough East area will be aired today.  If you're outside of the viewing area, here's the link to video. (it's also embedded below, if I did it correctly?!). They wanted to feature the free content available here on www.yamstamps.com! The team at FYI were great to work with and did a fantastic job of editing – I had to cough during the interview and they were able to get rid of almost all of the coughs!  (Note to self: remember to use inhaler just before taping next time!!! LOL).  Thanks to Jessica and the Cogeco team for having me on the show!

 

WHOOPS! One more choice!!

Star-cardThis was to be one of the choices for the Christmas Card Clinics…..and I inadvertently left it out of the photo album for the clinic.  DOH.

Anyway, this is a seventh option for your choice of Christmas cards, so once again, if you'd like to make these for your friends and family, contact me to register and reserve your spot in one of the clinics.

Christmas Card Clinics – less than a week away!

Snowflake-cardThis is one of the card options for the Christmas Card clinics starting next week.  I also decided to showcase it today at Carolanne's workshop – as she had requested to do a couple of Christmas cards. I always think monochromatic colour schemes are so elegant. 

If you'd like to mass produce these cards to send to your friends, please register for one of my card clinics – just let me know which card you'd like to make, and which date you'll be attending.  All clinics are here in Burlington, and there's a choice of days and times. Please note that space is limited so register early!
