Thirteen Handmade Card Samples
I love many things about being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator! But perhaps the best part is the stamping community that comes with it . During my almost-eleven years as a demonstrator, I've made so many lasting and valuable relationships with people who share my love of Stampin' Up! and paper crafting. I had a chance to gather with some of these women this last Saturday at a local team meeting. (I recently moved to Arizona from Nebraska so I have a great group there with whom I met this summer). One of the fun things we do is "swap" our card creations. Each person designs one card and then creates enough for everyone participating. Then we...

Delicate Dahlias Card Samples
I love Stampin' Up!'s Sale-A-Bration sale! When I first began stamping, I saved my Christmas cash and birthday money. I splurged during Sale-A-Bration and earned all of the offerings as well as the hostess sets. In past years, this sale occurred just once a year. Now, it's two times each year. Two times to earn free paper crafting products with minimum orders. That's exciting! Last week, I played with the Counting Sheep stamp set and Sheep Dies. See that post here. This week, I focus on the Delicate Dahlias stamp set. It's so gorgeous. The sentiments work perfectly for a variety of occasions. Grab this set free with a $100 purchase (before...
