Oopsie!

Christie and I took a day off this week to go to quilt shops in Borger and Pampa. Along the way, we learned of a new quilt shop in Canadian!! Definitely worth the drive.

Outside:

Donna's In the Attic

Inside:

Notice the quilt on the left - more below.

The window made it hard to take this picture but I love these colors.

And now for the oopsie:

My Oopsie

I bought enough fabric in Donna's for a new quilt for my king bed.  Haven't seen this fabric in Amarillo so I knew I had to get it when I saw it. The fabric is "hometown" by Moda and I had seen it on the internet but now I have it!! The gray and white pieces on the right I bought in Pampa - just kinda collecting gray fabric. And the rooster bird house - I found him in Alco.

Season of Friendship - Ready for Spring!!

Season of Friendship

Love the colors in this card: perfect plum, regal rose and certainly celery. The stamp set is "Season of Friendship" and comes in wood only. That means it's been in the catalog for a while - hope they don't retire it anytime soon.

The new 2012-2013 SU! Catalog comes out a month early this year! It will be out in June. That means the current catalog will expire at the end of May instead of June. Why? SU! is making changes in their catalog strategy. We'll still have an annual catalog but instead of 3 mini catalogs per year we'll have 2 bigger and better mini catalogs! I'm expecting the retirement list to come out in late April or early May. I'll keep you posted!!

Lovely As a Tree

This set has been in the SU! catalog a very long time. It is very versatile and there are so many uses for it!
Here I have made a "guy" birthday card.

The trees are stamped on DS paper "First Edition Speciality" using Staz On black ink. Sentiment is from the set "Bring on the Cake". Simplicity makes the perfect "guy" card!

Banners and Pennants!

This black and white card really makes a statement!

Pennant Parade

The banners are made from strips of basic black cardstock and the 1" square punch. The pennants are made from "pennant parade" punched out with the  "petite pennants" punch. Great way to use scraps and would be pretty with lots of different colors!

Don't forget Sale-A-Bration!! Goes until March 31, 2012. See sample below of the "fresh vintage" set along with "everyday enchantment" DS paper and brad - only available during Sale-A-Bration!
