Hats Off for Summer
Thanks for joining us today! Welcome to Team Stamp It's June blog hop. This month,The r we feature cards and projects with a summer and/or patriotic theme. Be sure to visit all of the talented stampers participating in the hop. Leave a comment with the hashtag #stampitcontest. You could win a Hello Dear Friend card kit. My card features the super fun Hats Off Bundle found on page 47 of Stampin' Up!'s new Annual Catalog. Actually, I only used the smaller hat die to convey my summer and patriotic theme. The sentiment comes from A Good Man stamp set (located on page 46). I've had a lot of fun creating a variety of hats -- for both men and...

Sweet Ice Cream #simplestamping
Each month, Stampin' Up! offers a #simplestamping challenge. It encourages us to use just rubber stamps, ink, and paper to create handmade, rubber-stamped greeting cards. Through this practice, we show you don't need a lot of wild and crazy supplies. You can make something pretty and functional with just a few supplies. (Of course, as crafters, we love to have all of the extra goodies; there are so many gorgeous and fun embellishment choices.) This month's challenge calls for rubber stamps, ink, paper, and a punch. Stampin' Up!'s Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and the coordinating Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch have been popular items. Through the...

Sweet Ice Cream Shaker Card
With the start of June, summer officially begins! What treat says summer? Ice cream. (Who I am kidding? Anytime of the year is a good time for ice cream!) In fact, June 7 marked National Chocolate Ice Cream Day. I created a fun shaker card to share using Stampin' Up!'s Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch. This bundle first appeared in Stampin' Up!'s January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. The good news: It's also found a spot in the brand-new 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. However, a few products used to create the Sweet Ice Cream shaker card (card design inspired by Kim Allen) retire at the end of June (or while supplies last)....

Expressions in Ink Gift Card Holder
I recently returned from Stampin' Up!'s incentive trip to Maui! What a treat! The weather was beautiful, and the company spoiled the earners and their guests. I truly thank all of my friends, customers, team, and supportive husband for this awesome opportunity. The event focuses mainly on relaxing, recharging, and connecting with other demonstrators. We didn't have any planned stamping events, but we did exchange swap cards. To participate, I made 26 of one card. (See my card here.) Then, we receive 25 different cards back! It's so fun to see the variety of ideas presented by other demonstrators. (Review the video of the cards I received...
