Cards, Cards, & More Cards!

Tonight is my card class, yeaaaaa!! Here is another sneak peak at one of the cards we'll be making. I just love this new stamp set, Winter Post. I also used the Heard from the Heart Stamp Set for the sentiment. This card was very simple to make.

We are one week away from flying off to Liberia. Please note that I won't be here to answer any questions or for you to place any orders but if you do need to order something you can just go to my website http://rosecastillo.stampinup.net and click the shop now button in the upper right hand corner. Your items will ship directly to your house. I will be returning November 19th, so I will be available after the 20th of November if you need anything or want to host a workshop.

Stamp Club members please remember that we will be having our stamp club on the first Tuesday of November because of my travels.

Well I'm off, back to work! Have a great day.

Christmas, Its only October!

I have been working on the Christmas cards for my card class coming up this Thursday and it is making me have panic attacks. It actually make me feel like it is later in the year than it really is. It also reminds me that I will be leaving for Liberia a week from this Thursday, yikes! Only a little over a week left for me to get ready for our mission trip. Boy am I feeling the pressure. By the time we get home we will be the week of Thanksgiving and then its Christmas!

If you won't able to attend my Christmas Card Class this Thursday don't worry I will be holding one more class on Saturday, November 29th at my house. Let me know if you are interested in attending.

Have a great day!!!

Go Dodgers!!!

I am really excited that the Dodgers are the division champs and are making their way to the World Series. When I was a little girl, I would watch Dodger games with my dad. He was a huge fan, he wore Dodger shirts, hats, and pins all the time. I guess my love for Baseball and the Dodgers stems from the time I spent with my dad all those years. I miss my dad and wish he was here to share in my excitement about our team finally making it this far! My dog, Dodger has been wearing his Dodgers jersey! LOL! (Yes, we named our dog after the baseball team.) I don't know that he is as excited about the shirt as I am but oh well, he is a good dog and her wears his shirt with no problems.

Some dear friends of mine love the Angels and love to tease me about how well the Angels are doing etc... and they even love to call my dog "Angel." so I had to text them today to rub it in that the Anaheim Angels lost last night, therefore getting themselves knocked out of the championship games. I got a few responses from these friends and all they could say was "whatever!" Makes me laugh. Now I just hope that the Dodger can continue to win.

Go LA Dodgers!!!!

Sneak Peek

Earlier this week I said that I would try to give a sneak peek of some of the cards for my card class this Saturday. Here are two of the cards that I made last night. I used a couple of the new stamp sets out of the mini catalog, Seasons of Friendship and Winter Post. (You should have received your mini catalog by now. If you haven't contact me and I will get you one.)

Tonight my schedule will consist of my card prepping for my class tomorrow morning at 10:30 AM and some house cleaning! I am excited for the class tomorrow because that means I get to hang out with some great friends, make cards, and have good conversation.

I am truly happy that I found

paper crafting as a hobby. I never thought of my self as a crafty person but now I guess most people would say that I am. I wish I would


scrapbook more so I could actually finish my wedding scrapbook but oh well, it will get completed one of these days. I'll try to remember and take pictures tomorrow as we celebrate National Card Making Day.



Go LA Dodgers! (I'm a Dodger's fan)
