Lovely Creative LIVE

I make 90% of the decisions in my home... I pay the bills, home school the four kids (sure fighting for my decisions along the way - lol)... I work from home while balancing a small farm, food in the house, meals that people don't hate.... 
So I'm going to let you in on a secret... 
I often give up control.
I'm an A-Type/Hippie.  A bit crunchy, a ton sparkly.  I love giving my hair stylist control of what we will be doing, how I'll look (she took my 40"+ of hair, in one fell swoop, and I haven't regretted it since!).  One of my BFF's hears, quite often, that "I'm not emotionally invested/attached" to some idea or look - to her dismay!

So it was a BLAST to Give Up Control to YOU during our Creative Friday's Facebook LIVES!!  I bring a stamp set, suite, collection of papers, inks, accessories and YOU Pick What Happens!!  Techniques, look, greetings, stamps used, etc.  I have NO Control!
YOU Do!
I just do what is voted on in our 
Creative Friday LIVES.

Like with this stunning, beloved, fun, classic Lovely as a Tree stamp set.... see how it came together.

I adore a good masculine card. My husband said men like it simple, clean and less words to read.  
Hmm - OK so - BAM! 
Here is EVERYTHING everyone decided on 
(or voted for - it got a little heated - lol!):

~  We inked the Lovely as a Tree image in the Mint Macaron ink pad.
~  Created a multicolored image with a Thumping Technique - using the Old Olive Stampin' Write Marker and thumped the side along the leaves to darken and crate a multicolored image.
~  Using the Soft Suede Stampin' Write Marker to color the trunk ink.
~  Sponged for a varied layer of colors - using our Stampin' Sponges around the edge of the stamped card stock. One layer in Mint Macaron, then Old Olive and then finished in the Soft Suede.
(So many fun techniques come together for this card!)
~  Frame in the Natures Poem Designer Series Paper with Stampin' Dimensional adhesive.
~  Tying the TWO Baker's Twine in the Mint Macaron and Crumb Cake around the Soft Suede card.
~ Stamp the greeting from the Well Said stamp set in the Soft Suede ink (don't miss this BUNDLE Savings!!).

Lovely prayers..

Words are important.  I am a Words of Affirmation person and with the recent loss of my mom, the outpouring of love in the written word has been a blessing.  This past two weeks I've known two others who've lost a parent as well and wanted to create a beautiful handmade card to show I care.

What Others are SAYING about Getting Crafty with Jamie

Jamie is so passionate and creative about making cards - and wants everyone else to join her in the fun! She is so encouraging and positive in her attitude, helping me along when I get frustrated - and then rejoicing with me at the finished product! I love going to her classes to get new ideas, learn techniques, and have loads of fun in the process. ~ Christine C.

Jamie has wicked awesome classes! If you don’t like a particular stamp or paper/ink color Jamie wants you to change it to suit your style! I did my sister-in-law’s entire bridal shower from invitations/thank you cards, party favors to decorations, it was quaint and whimsical! Everyone ooh’d and ahh’d! I’ve had lots of special requests for classes and Jamie delivers; she always has tasty treats and flavored coffees too ~Ashley W.

I have been attending Jamie's classes for over a year. Her ideas for cards are fresh and fun. She always tries to have several different styles of cards available, so everyone gets to make cards that fit their personal style. The techniques she shows each class can be used in many different applications. She is very patient teacher when instructing class members on how to use the Stampin Up products. ~ Carol D.

If I looked up the word sparkle in the dictionary, I would find Jamie Albanese picture there. I have had the sweet blessing of knowing Jamie and her family for over 5 years now. Every time I am with her I feel loved and inspired. When I am in one of her classes I feel my creative juices flow, as she encourages me to go outside my comfort zone. Jamie helped our girl scout troop make cards for a soldier who needed some encouragement!!! For any of you who have not been in one of Jamie's classes, please don't let another day slip by. She is a beautiful friend and she will become yours too. ~ Blessings, Karen:-)

Jamie has a great eye for style and flair, and it shows in her work. Yet she can pick up on your own individual style and makes great recommendations. I love that she is always flexible for last-minute decision maker mommies like me! So much fun to host craft events with your friends and family - that personal touch always means so much. ~ Adonna
