Hi Stampers :
Happy Sunday friends !
Friday morning I sent out all my Glitter Queens quarterly cards (above photo show some of them ) . When making my Glitter Queens quarterly cards I didn't realize how many steps there were . Just loved the card and thought Yeah I will make these for my Glitter Queens .
About 1/2 way through I was thinking " What was I thinking " LOL!
I recieved the cutest swap at convention from Sharri and contacted her to see if it was okay if I used her idea and then make a video on her idea . Since the card has many steps I just highlight what I did and then I will put the card together with all of you .
That video will be posted later this week .
I am so excited that they are all finished ( over 100 of them ) and on their way to my Glitter Queens ( Just wait till you see it in person they are so stinkin CUTE!! )
So with my Downline cards done next on the agenda is to complete my Founders Circle swaps I need 126 of those. The more I can get done and checked off my list the better I am ( Know what I mean ?) I am not good under pressure making so many cards . Even though FC is over a month away the more I can get done the better for me since stress and my body do not work well together .
This Friday night I was on a mission to come up with my Founders Circle swap design . Imagine me going through all of my 600+ videos over the years . My swap had to be something quick and easy .
I wanted to make something with a Halloween theme even though there is NO theme / No restrictions on our swaps just to use current items .
I always find Halloween alot of fun maybe that's because my family doesn't celebrate Halloween BUT I was eye balling that Orange and Black glitter# # 132206 in the new Holiday catalog and well one thing went to one thing and then another and well I have 3 Halloween projects with finally the 1 I will be using ~ WHEW !
What a mess after 5 hours of playing & creating . Needless to say the biggest mess came when I was cleaning up my huge mess . I spilled the whole jar of orange glitter on my floor . I'm shocked my neighbors didn't hear me scream ( well maybe they did and didn't tell me) .
As soon as the jar when over it all seemed like it was moving in slow motion .I stood there and looked at the Big mess . I did get a BIG bowl yesterday for my new glitter so hopfully this will not happen again …. 0f all the 10 years of stamping this is the second time this has happened ~Thank God !
I will be showing you the Halloween cards over the next couple weeks . I would show them all this week BUT I don't want to over whelm you will the same stamp set "Halloween Bash " over and over again .
I will be showing one tomorrow and also have a video on that card this week as well (Super cute)
Today is the 1 st full week of totally juicing we are eating a small dinner But other than that we are just drinking Barley Max / Beet Max / Carrot Max . So much easier than me actually juicing every other day 10 lbs of carrots . Just mix and drink ~ Healing inside out.
Are we loving the Holiday catalog ? I love everything ! It really is an amazing catalog and did you know it's an interactive catalog?
Did you notice the Icons to use with your cell phone ( Iphone – Android ) download the Layar App. and then scan the icon in the holiday catalog. The icons are spread throught out the catalog.
This is what it looks like on page 5 in the Holiday catalog .
Once you scan the icon a video plays about that product opens up . It's pretty awesome !
I added a quick video for you on this feature below or you can click HERE if you subscribe to my blog feed since videos do not show up in the blog feed .
I will be sending my August Newsletter out either tomorrow or Tuesday so be looking for that in your email box .

Hi Dawn, I came by to purchase some crystal effects and caught your new post. You are one busy gal! I had no idea you had so many downlines etc. to care for. Do you know, you are my favorite demonstrator because I absolutely love all your Halloween projects. You have a really special touch for my favorite holiday. So sorry about the glitter spilling. I hope you were able to salvage some of it. Can’t wait to see the new cards and remember to slow down when you need to! You’ll make it! Take good care.
Charging my phone now to give this a try. And as for the Great Glitter Fiasco of 2013…at least you didn’t spill it on the carpet!
Thank you so much for showing the whole process of using the app/Iphone in the new catty. i am a newby with Iphone and appreciate seeing EVERY step.
