I am back from Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage demonstrator gathering in Salt Lake City. What a whirlwind! I will post a few photos and such in the next few days!
Here is the second card I swapped during the week. It features Stampin’ Up!’s So Many Shells set. I created the background using the B acrylic block. I inked the block, stamped off to achieve a light color,and stamped onto the Very Vanilla card stock.
Thanks for stopping by today!

So excited to be in Salt Lake City attending Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage Live event. As demonstrators, we’ll get to see and play with new product, learn from talented demonstrators, meet stampers from all over, and swap our handmade cards. I was able to get 40 made (three different designs).
This is one of the cards I’ll be swapping today. It features the Big on Birthday’s stamp set (found in the Annual Catalog), Burlap Background, and the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack. This makes an awesome masculine card, but you can switch out the Designer Series Paper and create a feminine card, as well.
I can’t wait to see what cards I get in return!
Thanks for stopping by today!

I have a couple of private parties coming up, and I like to give the hostess a thank-you gift. Stampin’ Up!’s Mini Pizza Boxes are perfect for this. Inside, I’ve tucked three, 3 x 3 matching note cards and envelopes (yes, the 3 x 3 envelopes are available in Stampin’ Up!’s Holiday Catalog.) The cards make great tags for gifts or a gift insert.
I used the Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper, Silver Foil, and the image from Cheers to the Year set. I hope the hostesses like them!
There’s still time to host your girls’ night out stampin’ party! Contact me to get on the calendar. There are lots of options for a party — everything from Christmas cards to birthday cards to kits and tags to treat packets. It’s a lot of fun and a way to make something handmade that means something.
Thanks for stopping by today!

Enjoy your day wherever you are!

There are several things I love about this card.
I love the colors: Cajun Craze and Crushed Curry are just so awesome for fall. I also used Early Espresso and Old Olive Here in Nebraska, the leaves are changing, and my favorite mimic the Cajun Craze and Crushed Curry colors.
I love the eclipse technique. It’s so fun and easy use with a variety of sets. I used the Vintage Leaves set for this card. In addition, the Thick Very Vanilla Cardstock made for a sturdy base. And, the Mini Dimensionals make it easy to “pop up” the letters.
If you don’t have Stampin’ Up!’s Large Letters Framelits, they are a great investment. Not only do they work well for the eclipse technique, but for any occasion. You can spell anything with them.
Thanks for stopping by today.
