I’m ready to have some fun & I hope you are too! Each week I’m going to put a message in the middle of my video and you’ll need to watch it to see what I have in store for you. They’ll be different each week and instead of posting a comment my blog…I ask that you send me an email (if you post it on my blog, the cat is out of the bag and everyone will see it :))
Today’s project is a post it note holder. It’s one that I’ve made for years and it
was one of the first items I sold on my Chic n Scratch Shack a few years ago (that was way back when I was selling my hand made items).
I was going through my left over designer paper and saw that I had some paper that I had not used. So, that got me to thinking……..I’ve been trying to make sure I show you all how to get the most out of what you buy and the Tea Party Designer Paper is the perfect example. I’ve shown you the Top Note Bag, two cards in my May Card Class/Kit and now the Post it Note Holder. I hope that helps you when you’re deciding what paper to purchase 🙂
See ya tomorrow!
p.s. Here’s the one I carry in my purse…I must say it doesn’t look quite this good any longer…but I do love pulling it out when I’m out and about! (Click on the picture to view it larger.)
p.s.s. Demo friends….if you were at Sherrie’s shoebox swap at Leadership in Orlando…let me know which one you’re signing up for (this time I’ll remember my adhesive but who knows what I’ll forget).

Good Afternoon,
If you watched my video from yesterday on how to make the Password Books…I told you I would post a video on how to use the Light Weight Coasters with your Big Shot Die Cut Machine. I just posted it on my Stampin’ Academy, click here if you’d like to watch it.
I used the Serif Essentials alphabet right out of our Stampin’ Up! catalog and I also used a really old Sizzix set that I bought several years ago…in fact it was my very first die. (The alphabet is Fun Serif Small.)
If you’d like to purchase some Light Weight Coasters, click here for my Chic’ n Scratch Shack.
Thanks for stopping by!
p.s. 8 more days until we leave for the Stampin’ Up! Hawaii trip 🙂 A couple notes…in the next few days I’ll be reminding you that I may be unavailable when I’m gone. I plan to take my laptop….but truth be told my hubby and children may hide it from me :)) considering how many hours I’ve worked the past year or so….a vacation is just what we need. With that being said…I really need my business to continue….while I’m away…. and I’ve got a few things up my sleeve…more info later!!
**If you’re a dear customer of mine….Online ordering will work great for you while I’m away & you can shop on my Stampin’ Up! website 24 hours 7 days a week. But, if you need me to put a order through for you…I need it by Friday…March 13th. I’ll be home on the 28th…and you’ll have just a couple more days of Sale-a-bration left when I return. If we can…. I’d rather get it in sooner rather than later.
**If you’re thinking of joining my team….I’ve spoken to some of you girls about joining my team and I know that you’re waiting for mid month or end of the month to join. Not a problem, that too is available 24 hours 7 days a week. But, make sure your name is spelled exactly as it appears on your social security card and that you do not abbreviate anything. My password to join is chic (all lowercase letters). If you have any problems while I’m away, you can send me an email and in the subject line type new demo help…I’ll try to get back to you asap. I’ll be back before the end of the month so we’ll make sure you get signed up before the special ends.
p.s.s. Sorry my post is so long but I have to have everything in order before I go out of town…or otherwise I’ll be totally stressed. See ya tomorrow 🙂
I’m happy to report that my video is loaded and ready to go.
If you’d like to learn how to make the Password Bookclick here to head over to my Stampin’ Academy for a video tutorial.
I used Medium Weight Rectangle Coasters and you can find them on my Chic’ n Scratch Shack and they measure 3 7/8 x 5 3/8.
For Savanna’s book I used the Schoolbook Serif Alphabet with the Pacific Point Ink. I also used the Kiwi Kiss Striped Ribbon & the Stampin’ Up! scallop circle punch.
Thanks for stopping by!!

Cardstock: Good morning Sunshine, Kiwi Kiss, Chocolate Chip & Whisper White

P.S. Count down to Hawaii starts today…we leave March 16th….9 more days 🙂 (we have a house/dog sitter staying here so I’m comfortable saying this.)
My project started out as a Password Book but then….it changed to a Recipe Book. My niece Cora will be 10 years old & I was on the phone with my sister and she was telling me how Cora has been watching her cook and writing down her recipes…so I stopped in my tracks and switched gears.
This Recipe Book has lots of details…I’ll try to explain them quickly. The cover and backside is made with the Medium Weight Rectangle Coasters & I covered them with the Delicate Dots Designer Paper. Cora’s name was a Light Weight Coaster that I cut into 4 pieces and then punched out with my Big Shot & an alphabet die (I popped them up with Dimensionals).
Do you recognized the alphabet? Oh my gosh….I’ve had it forever…it’s the Fun Serif Alphabet and I remember when they came out (many years ago) every week I drove as fast as I could to use my one coupon so I could get a new letter that week. It took me a while but I managed to get 3 whole alphabets. If you have those dies….hang onto them…they work great in the Big Shot. I was able to run all four letters through at one time…..quick & easy …I love it!!
Did you know I’m the person that came up with using the Rectangle Coasters? (I placed that first custom order and took a chance hoping they would sell). The main reason I ordered them was to make Password Books…but then after getting them I had other ideas….and I forgot to revisit my original idea. Some days I scare myself….a year later I’m just now getting around to it 🙂
I’ll film a video in the next few days. If you’re wanting to know which coasters to order. I used the Medium Weight Rectangle and the 4″ Light Weight. Click here to visit my Chic’ n Scratch Shack where I have the coasters available.
Have a great day!!
p.s Don’t forget to check out the Easter stamp sets that are available starting today…I’ll post more details on this as soon as they’re available to me. (Four new sets, in the new Mini Catalog, available starting today….the rest of the catalog starts April 1st.)
p.s.s. Double posting today….I’ll post the winner for the February Free stamp set and post the picture of the March free stamp set.
I used the Delicate Dots Designer Paper from the Sale-a-bration catalog along with the Jumbo Outline Alphabet and Filigree Brads.
If you looking for the Rectangle Coasters I have them available on my Chic’ n Scratch Shack (on the left side bar).
Have a great night and see ya on Sunday! (I’m going to attempt to clean my office tomorrow…..if you saw it you might pass out.)
p.s. Make sure you check in on Sunday…..although I don’t own any of the sets ….the next Mini Catalog starts April 1st….but you can order a few of the Easter sets starting Sunday (March 1st)….and I’ll be announcing the March Free Stamp Set.
p.s. Don’t you love that Jumbo Outline Alphabet? I can’t believe I haven’t used it in a while. Watch out…. I’m thinking ….what can I do next 🙂
