CTMH Pigment ink to alter buttons and blings!

Wow! This turned out so cool! 

I took our NEW bulk flowers and used our pigmented ink, sprinkled clear embossing powder and heat set it with my magic heat tool!  Now my flowers match my card!

Thank you Damask Diva, Stephanie Davis for sharing this idea!

Team Meeting on FEB.13th-Wed.

ALERT!!! FEB Team meeting changed!
Due to me being out of town on Thursday Feb 7th, I have changed our team meeting to Feb. 13th, a wednesday nite. (Can't and didn't want to book Valentines Day!)
Theme: anything using the "For Always" new paper pack
We are looking for a relocation for our meetings.  The Sizzler is remodeling and their banquet policies are changing.  They require 30 people and a deposit fee.  Since we are usually a crowd of 20ish, that is not going to work for us.  So on to plan B.
Suggestions?
Please RSVP!

Chalkboard Inspiration

Here is a fun little design I made using picmonkey.com
Isn't it fun? Very easy to do and user friendly...Great idea for the inside of our fun frames!

Or...how about this one? It would be cute on a shirt!

YULE-tide Greetings from Bren

Paper Cupcakes Yuletide Bash Dec. 6

Ok Cupcakes...we are good to go for our Dec. 6th holiday meeting~ 6:30-9:30 At our usual place $3 per person for tip collection. Please support the FREE room by having dinner with us.

Optional Card Swap Theme...Valentines card swap with La Belle Vie
UPDATE!
I just realized that the La Belle Vie papers are not carrying over to the next catalog...and that is the paper pack I chose for the Dec. swap...if you have already made your cards (Patty) then that is fine but if you have not, I would suggest using any of these current papers with a Valentine twist...
Avonlea, Clementine, Dakota, and Scholastic papers are due to carry over to the Spring/Summer 2013 Idea Book.
Bring your basic tool kit for a project.
Optional gift swap~ Bring a wrapped present~paper crafting related~$20 value with a handmade gift tag. (The tag will be entered in a contest)
