Fall Fiesta 2025 in Neillsville

 Autumn has arrived and that means time for the Fall Fiesta, a one-day stamping event in Neilsville, Wisconsin. It was held on October 4 and was a typical and beautiful sunny day here. My friend Annie and I carpooled to the Fiesta and had a great time.

We made 16 unique greeting cards featuring Stampin' Up! products, designed by 4 different Stampin' Up! demonstrators.

Here are photos of most of the cards. It was getting late in the day and I opted to bring home a couple of the cards to assemble here, which of course hasn't happened yet. But that's another story!

I hope you get some stamping inspiration from this colorful assortment. Happy Stampin!

Canada and Campground Card Creations

 

Eric and I and our dog Nellie have been enjoying the great outdoors this summer, which has kept me out of the stamp room quite a bit. However, I did take a kit of stamping essentials along on both trips to Canada and most of our camping trips.

I have photos of some of the results after these 2 pictures. The photo above is the glorious view from one of the islands on Lake of the Woods, in Ontario. We stopped here to cook a "shore lunch" of fresh walleye. "Shore lunch" is a meal with its own unique traditions of menu items and cooking techniques, similar to the traditions many families have with meals like Thanksgiving dinner. Ask me about our "shore lunch" traditions sometime!

And the next photo is our little lakeside cottage on wheels, home away from home!

And now on to the cards . . .

I took a set of coffee-themed stamps called Latte Love, the coordinating printed papers, matching cardstock and a couple sets of word stamps. When assembling the kit, I used my favorite One Sheet Wonder template to cut the 12x12 inch printed papers into card-sized pieces. Here are the results made during some indoor times on our trips. Enjoy!
