Hello Stampers!

The time we’ve waited for is finally here! You can now order Stampin’ Up! goodies from the brand-new Occasions catalog. Click on the link to explore the offerings. There are tons of new stamp sets, framelits, Designer Series Paper and more. I’ll be posting some of my creations later this week.

This is also a great time to host a party. Hostesses receive an extra $25 in hostess dollars when the party reaches $250
(that’s a minimum of $65 in free stuff!) Contact me to schedule at date that works for both us.

Sale-A-Bration Begins Tomorrow!

Picture

Hello Stampers!

Stampin’ Up!’s biggest and best sale of the year, Sale-A-Bration, begins tomorrow, January 6. Spend $50 (before tax and shipping) and receive a free gift. The offerings are many and include exclusive stamp sets, Designer Series Paper, ribbon/button accessory package, and Blendabilities markers.

One of the selections is a really cool Specialty Designer Series Paper called Irresistibly Yours. This white paper with a glossy white pattern is perfect for coloring using a variety of techniques like sponging, brayering, or spritzing. Coloring reveals the pattern. In this card, it’s a polka dot design.

For this 3 x 3, I started with a 6 inch by 3 inch pieces of Irresistibly Yours card stock and scored it at 3 inches.

I used a Stampin’ Sponge and sponged Wisteria Wonder ink all over the 6 x 3 piece. I used  a paper towel to remove the excess ink. Pretty cool!

I stamped the flower image from the Crazy About You stamp set (available in the spring Occasions catalog beginning tomorrow) in Elegant Eggplant ink and punched it  out with the Flower Medallion Punch, also available in the spring Occasions. I topped it off with a rhinestone jewel.

See the photos below for a before and after photo of this new, cool paper. Be sure to check back tomorrow to see copies of both the Sale-A-Bration and Occasions catalog. Then get ready to shop!

Stampin’ Up!’s Sale-A-Bration Begins in 5 Days! 

Hello Stampers!

Sale-A-Brration, Stampin’ Up!’s most exciting event of the year, begins in five days. The Sale-A-Bration catalog and the brand-new spring Occasions catalogs both go live January 6. Both of them are filled with a lot of fun products to help you create beautiful projects.

The Sale-A-Bration special, which runs through March 31, goes like this: Order $50 in any Stampin’ Up! merchandise (before tax and shipping) and choose one free item from the special brochure that’s filled with exclusive stamp sets, Designer Series Paper, ribbon/button accessory pack, and even Blendabilities. I am so excited about all of the products and will be sharing a few of my creations in the next few days!

This clean and simple card features the Lotus Blossom photopolymer stamp set. It is just one of the items you can choose FREE with a $50 purchase. This flower is absolutely beautiful; I can’t wait to try it in many of Stampin’ Up!’s vibrant colors. The flower is actually created with three different stamps. Putting this card together was quick and easy with Stampin’ Up’s Notecards and Envelopes. You get 20 precut and scored white card bases with envelopes for just $5.95. I stamped the image and sentiment directly on card. This particular card was created with Blackberry Bliss and Old Olive ink. I topped it off with a small piece of 3/8-inch Stitched Satin Ribbon. 

Check back each day for more sneak peaks! I have both catalogs in my hot little hands. If you don’t currently work with a demonstrator, contact me and I’ll get you your very own copies! The catalogs will be available online beginning January 6. I’d love to have you host a party so you can earn this set and others free!

Happy New Year!

A January of Birthdays!

Hello Stampers!

My January calendar is filled with birthdays — fifteen of them at this count! I need to get started creating some handmade cards to celebrate each one’s special day.

This card came together easily — thanks to Stampin’ Up!’s color-coordinated products. The Beach House Washi Tape provides the color combination of Pool Party and Crushed Curry. The card features the Birthday Surprise stamp set.
