Blog Hop with the Jacksonville STARZ

Welcome to the Stampin' Up! Jacksonville STARZ Blog Hop.  You should have arrived here from Priscilla Thoreson's blog.


I made this card for our recent swap using new product from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog and thought I would share it with all of you. I just love the frosty look of this sentiment from Seasonally Scattered.  Kind of reminds me of those nights when the moon would glisten on the snow covered ground and on the icicles hanging from the roof.  Living in Florida now I can honestly say I often wish for snow although my husband definitely doesn't share that wish. 

If you would like to recreate this card I used the following Stampin' Up! products:

Just in case you get lost along the way, following are all the participants:

Thanks for taking the time to Hop with us.  I hope you enjoy yourself and please come back again soon.

Sea Street Silliness

I only have a short post for you today.

Another convention swap share...This time by Colleen Magness.  Colleen used the cute stamp set called Sea Street on page 48 of the annual catalog with the Maritime Designer Series Paper on page 187.
Today's photo share is me and Amanda Sevall from California.  Amanda is in the same group of demonstrators as me, but this is the first time we had the opportunity to meet.  We have been chatting on Facebook but there is nothing like a face-to-face meeting.  I so enjoyed meeting Amanda and hope to see her again in January at Stampin' Up! Leadership in Orlando.  I hope we get to attend Manager's Reception together there. 
 
Thanks Amanda for allowing me to pick your brain at convention!
Thanks to all of you for visiting my blog today.
