Sometimes I have to start way early to get my ideas for my classes and clubs, so that I can get supplies all ordered ahead of time....(Oppsss...wasn't too good at that this fall!!!).  I was going thru my sets to see what I had for Valentines...and came across this set...it is such a keeper!!!!  Works not only for Valentines, but Anniversaries, Weddings...and just making a beautigful card!!! 

Sunday our stamping group met for our monthly power stamp/swap.  This was my swap card.  I love this little guy.  Normally I would have used the new Stampin' Up! Googlie Eyes, since they are self sticking....I love them....but these cards had soo many eyes, I thought I would be frugal and use some of my old ones, that I have bags of.  Laid all the cards out(all 16), and started glueing them on...5 per card.  left the room to give them time to dry, came back....and ALL of them had popped off.....not good!!!  So I changed glues and started over...and when I came back the next morning....yup....at least half had popped off, and as I handled them, more popped off... so I defalted to the great Stampin' Up! ones. 

 I love this Stampin' Up! cat stamp....I think I'm gonna have to get it!!!!

 Too Cute!!!!  Not sure who makes this stamp.

 I also love this spooky tree stamp from last years mini!!!! 

And this boot set is so cute....it has a really nice rain boot, cowboy boot, and winter boot!!!  But I just love the Witches Boot!!!!

I can't remember if I posted this recipe...but it was such a good one I thought I'd put it on here, even if it's a repeat.  I made this for one of our Dinner for 8 dinners...and they were all gone....really fast!!!
