LaMuir Baze ~ North Carolina Regional w/Stampin' Up!

What a fun weekend!  I drove up to NC, for the Stampin' Up! Regional! 

This is just a portion of the line waiting for the doors to open and for the Convention to start!

Here is Lynn with her guest Beth, Lynn is a part of my Stampin' Team from Savannah!

Here is Lynn with Janet W. from PA, Janet is one of our Team Leaders! I am Janet's 4th Line and Lynn is Janet's 5th Line! and Janet wants to meet and help each of us achieve great things!

Lynn & Beth Stampin during the Make-n-Take session!  O' what fun!

This is what it is all about folks.......watching the demonstrations on the Big Screen that are done on stage! To make sure that everyone in the room can see, Tom the camera man stands over the demonstrator with his camera! and we all take pics so we don't forget how to do it!

Isn't that the cutest little bat you ever did see?

Here is another one of my team members from Savannah, Melissa D.

Melissa and Shelli are taking a moment to remember the great time we had in Savannah, when she came to my house for "The Work Shop of a Lifetime"

Then she signed the picture for Melissa!

Getting pictures with Shelli is like having the paparazzi around you never know where to look! Cameras snapping in all directions, I will have to get Evelyn to send me the pic she took, I think that is the camera Shelli was looking at!

Seeing other wonderful friends from Savannah, this is Lucia G. O' such a sweet lady, loved catching up with her!

O' and I did get to stamp as well! Cute cards!!!!!!

I think it is safe to say.........Fun was had by all!

If you too would like to have this much fun, just come and join my team!

LaMuir Baze ~ A Super Size Thinking of You!

Here is a Super Sized Thinking of You Card! One of Stephanie's team mates has a sister who was in a very serious car accident on the 2nd Day of school. This young lady is a senior this year, and will be in the hospital for many weeks to come if not months!  One of the mothers wanted to do something special for her and her family.  So everyone is chipping in, So I thought ~ I can make a card for the Softball team to sign. (and we have a lot of girls on the team)

Sooooooo I though well I will make a Big Card, so here it is,  not knowing the young lady myself, I asked one of our moms to pick out what she liked best.  She picked out the very appropriate Thinking of you with the wonderful tree! Well I don't have a stamp that big, and I didn't have any of the Decor Elements wall vinyl on hand, so I took my handy dandy little machine that magnifies images, taped the poster board to the wall, and traced the tree, and the Words, then copied the card pretty much from the Idea Book & Catalog the best that I could considering the large scale of things.

Just to show you how large the card is, I place a regular sized card next to it measuring at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

 

Now that is a Large Card! I pray that it helps her find strength during her recovery knowing that we all care so deeply for her during her recovery! Our Prayers are with you Dear One!

LaMuir Baze ~ Happy 13th Birthday Macy!

I am so excited that I had the honor of being asked to make a 13th Birthday Cake for a friends daughter!

Well, while talking to my friend last week about the cake, I said...........

..........you know, we can make invitations to match the cake!

And here they are!!!!!!!!!!  I thought they were the cutest and really match the cake perfect!

You will have to wait a few weeks for the cake though!

 

LaMuir Baze ~ Delicate Doilies w/ Book Mark's

With the New Stampin' Up!  Idea Book & Catalog out, Michelle, my upline wanted us to make some cards to swap with one another!

So here they are.......... I had gotten this idea a few years ago by my friend Beth F. and when I saw how precious these doilies stamped and punched out, I just knew that I wanted to make a Bookmark!

I just love this book mark, loved using the Lace Ribbon Border Punch!

It is just the neatest thing since sliced bread!

Love the color combo with the Designers Series Paper (DSP)! the Melon Mambo with the Pumpkin Pie is just scrumptious don't you think? So flapping down the DSP just had to be done! And talk about getting 2 birds with 1 stone, flapping down the DSP make a cute pocket to hold the Bookmark!

  If you would like to order any other the supplies to make this card, please give me a shout or shop on line with me.  www.designsbylamuir.stampinup.net

LaMuir Baze ~ Embossed Flower Garden

Such a Sweet & Subtle card! I think we will do this for our "Girls Night Out"!

simply embossed the bashful blue card stock with the Flower Garden embossing folder, then lightly dabbed the sponge dobber into the Chocolate Chip Chalk and rubbed it over the embossed portion of the card.

Using the coordinating chocolate ribbon, and then using the Perfect Punches Stamp set along with the coordinating punch, was so easy! and you can change the sentiment if you need to.

  To get the 2 different colors with the same stamped image, I simply inked the stamp with the Bashful Blue Ink pad and then took the Chocolate chip Marker to color in the thanks.

**hint, if you are going to use different colors with your stamped image, always ink up the image with lighter color first, then color in with the darker color, you will not ruin your stamp pads and you can cover the lighter color so much easier then trying to clean the darker color off the image before using the lighter color.



LaMuir Baze ~ Back to School Teacher Gift!

Last year we made these Amazingly Easy & Adorable little Tile Post ~ It Holders, and Monogrammed for each child's teacher.  The Teachers loved them and used them all year!

This year I thought I would use Marina Mist Card Stock, in honor of our School Colors, and What better Designer Series Paper to go with the Marina Mist then the Wonderful "Just Add Cake" scrap booking paper!

  With the added touch of adding ribbon to the Pencil, I safely secured the ribbon with a glue dot so it wouldn't slip off!

LaMuir Baze ~ Layered Flower Fest!

I just love the way this card turned out! The soft colors just make me say......aaaaaaahhhhh!

I love the Flower Fest Stamp Set, becuase every flower has a coordinating punch, which is wonderful!

Here I decided to add a little more depth & deminsion to the flower so I punched the main flower, then stamped 3 more flowers and hand trimmed the other layers. When doing this for a class, I would probably just have them punch the one flower! 

And I really think using the 2 differen types of ribbon, the 1-1/4" Pretty in Pink Grosgrain Ribbon, along with just a hint of the Whisper White Organza Ribbon.

Wouldn't this be awesome for a Baby Shower Card!
