Fun times and a new tool!

I had a blast in Salt Lake City at OnStage!  Not only did I get to see all of the new products and catalogs, I saw my friends.  That was the best part!  It's incredible how close relationships form with other fellow demonstrators.  We truly enjoy being together, and product prize patrols don't hurt either!  I will be sharing some product photos soon.

I think you will be really thrilled with the new Occasions catalog and the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  They are both gorgeous.  I cannot wait until my pre-order is delivered!  If you've ever thought about becoming a demonstrator, now is the time!  With Sale-a-Bration and Occasions around the corner, it will be a fantastic first quarter!  If you are not working with another demonstrator, I'd be happy to send you the catalogs, and I'd be honored if you chose me as your demonstrator.

Also, Stampin' Up! is celebrating its 30th birthday in 2018!  There will be a huge bash and lots of promotions.  If you'd like to talk about joining us, please let me know!  I'd be happy to talk with you and explain the program.  There is no further obligation after purchasing the starter kit.  I cannot wait for next year's event!

The absolutely best new product is the Stamparatus!  I'm so excited about this!  If you are interested in getting one, they are by reservation only at this point.  You can click here to order one on November 16-30 for a February delivery.  You will have to put credit card information in, but you will not be billed until it ships.  Check out the video on this amazing stamp positioner!  ****UPDATED:  The first round of reservations for the Stamparatus is closed!  They sold out really fast.  Be ready to click on RESERVE on December 5 at 2 p.m. MT!!

Stay tuned....I will be sharing photos just as soon as I can! 

If you are not local to me and are not working with a demonstrator, let me know if you would like to receive the new catalogs!  In the meantime, you can shop 24/7 by clicking the flower to the right.

Stampin' Blends



As mentioned in my previous post, Stampin' Up! came out with new alcohol-based markers.  Stampin' Blends are amazing!  They are available to customers starting TODAY, November 1!  They come in 12 beautiful Stampin' Up! colors as a set or individually.  Each color has two shades, light and dark.  Just click above for ordering information.  *

*NOVEMBER SPECIAL - Order the whole set from me and I will send you a Memento Tuxedo Black stamp pad and some 6x6 sheets of Just Add Color dsp.  Just use Host Code C4WHHZFA .

I promised to post a picture using Stampin' Blends.  I made two quick cards and colored a piece of Just Add Color designer series paper just to practice.  I stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and then started coloring with the light shade.  I used the dark shade at the bottom and middle of the leaves.  I went back over the dark with the light to blend.  Easy peasy!  There is even a color lifter to move the color from outside the lines.

I used the Happiest of Days stamp set for both cards.  I just love those little gifts and the fonts!  The black dotted paper is from the Whole Lot of Lovely dsp.  Calypso Coral Layering Squares and Stitched Framelits are used on the first card.  I used Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay and Daffodil Delight for Stampin' Blends.

On the second, I stamped the gifts on a Stitched framelit and backed with a Layering Squares framelit in Bermuda Bay.  I colored with Bermuda Bay and Daffodil Delight.  I made an ooops on the sentiment so I stamped over again on Daffodil Delight and called it a day!

Thanks for stopping by.  Please leave me a comment.  I love to read them!

World Card Making Day

Hello Stampers!

Sorry I've been MIA.  I went to Las Vegas and returned a couple of days before the tragedy.  It breaks my heart to see what they've been through.  My thoughts and prayers go out to the victims.  I ended up getting sick from plane germs so I've been out of commission for a couple of days.

I wanted to let you know about some specials that Stampin' Up! has going on.  First, World Card Making Day is Saturday, October 7.  Are you going to be stamping?  I hope so!  I know that I will be babysitting my grandchildren, but maybe I can get my granddaughter to make a card or two with me.  She loves stamping!  Anyway, here are some amazing deals.  I know I'm stocking up on the Fast Fuse.  It comes with two refills!  There are several stamp sets for 15% off.  This runs from October 1-10.  Just click to shop!



Second, there is a sale on select designer series papers.  Buy three, get one free!  It's time to stock up.  There are some beautiful packages of paper here.  This runs through October 31.  Happy shopping!  I will try to post some cards using these pretty papers very soon.

Inky Fall Leaves

I love fall, don't you?! I saw this tutorial on Pinterest (Jackie Bolhuis has a video) so I decided to try it with the pretty leaves in Colorful Seasons.  It uses a baby wipe and reinkers for a stamp pad.

I started by folding two baby wipes into a rectangle and put them on a clear block F.  I then dropped reinker spots of Crushed Curry, Tangerine Tango, Old Olive and Rich Razzleberry in a random pattern.  I would use maybe three or four drops of each color within the rectangle.  Then I stamped into the ink with the solid leaf stamp. You can move around a bit to get the colors, but not too much as it will become brown.  My first card has some white on the leaf but I think it's a cool effect.  I stamped a bit more with the second card and it's deeper.  I wish I had more yellow here.  I added some leaves which I cut from the Seasonal Layers Framelits and adhered my piece to an Old Olive panel, stamped a sentiment, and backed it with a tiny strip of Rich Razzleberry.

You can shop for these products at my store 24/7.  Just click the highlighted products above or click on the flower to the right.  I am running a special throughout the month of September.  Purchase $75 in product, and I will send  you a set of the new Black Rhinestone Jewels.  I love them!!

Thanks for stopping by and let me know if I can answer any questions!

Happy Fall

I am loving this new Painted Harvest stamp set!  The sunflowers look amazing and it's easy to do with the two-step stamping method!  It's a versatile set.  I have seen others use this as a Christmas wreath stamped in green.  Check out my Pinterest board to the right (Holiday 2017).  I have pinned several samples.   Also, below you will see one I made for a class card.  We all created our own dsp with the stamp set. It was fun!

Wow, you should see the beautiful gate in this spooky bundle!  It's gorgeous!  The bundle is called the Graveyard Gate Bundle.  Love it!  You can begin ordering this on September 1 in my store.  Let me know if you'd like a catalog.



Celebrate

I made this for my niece who just passed her Level 2 CFA exam.  There aren't many who pass it on the first try!  I'm so proud of her!!




I used Beautiful You and the Marbled background stamp to make this card.  I started with one of my favorite colors, Bermuda Bay.  I stamped a panel of Whisper White with the Marbled background stamp. Then I stamped the girl with Memento twice.  I used a paper pumpkin stamp to put the dots on the skirt, cut it out and glued it on top of the other image.  I used a blender pen to color the image in and finished off with Metallic Enamel Shapes.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Please let me know what you think!

Treat Yourself

Here is a quick watercolor card that I sent to a friend and team member.  I used Stampin' Up! watercolor paper and the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set.  I used the little pods and stacked them.  They're stamped in Versamark and embossed with White Stampin' Emboss Powder.  Then I used an Aqua Painter to wet my paper and then painted with my ink pads.  I used Watermelon Wonder (a retired color), Peekaboo Peach and Daffodil Delight.  The sentiment is from Falling For You which is retired.  I added some In Color Enamel Dots.




Stampin' Up! Bonus Days are almost over!  Don't miss out.  For any $50 order you place, you will receive a $5 coupon which can be used in August.  This is over July 31st though, so don't wait!  Click on the graphic to shop.  If you are a Paper Pumpkin subscriber or you want to become one, you can buy a 3, 6 or 12-month subscription and get some bonus coupons!!
