Hey There,

Last night I arrived home safe and sound from Purcellville, Virginia where I had a lovely, lovely time teaching and meeting some terrific stampers who are now brayer maniacs.

My time at home is short lived however, I leave very early tomorrow morning for St. George, Utah where I will be pampered with the other Stampin’ Up! Founder Circle Achievers at the Founder’s Circle Retreat.  I’m  soooo looking forward to this trip!  Please know I will be available for product or workshop questions, please e-mail or call.  🙂

I didn’t want to leave you without a project, so here is a cute quarter card (4.25″ x 5.5″).  This card features two Stampin’ Up Halloween stamp sets, Wicked Cool and Jack of all Trades.  I love to co-mingle stamp sets.

Check out the tutorial below.

Here are a few Stampin’ Up Reminders before I start the project:
