Virtual Inking

Swaps Galore.

I just wanted to show you some more swaps from my upline's meeting.  It's always fun to go and get inspired.  This one is from my friend and sideline, Peggy.

This one is by Tami.  I loved the embossing and color combo.

This one didn't have a name, unfortunately, but I really liked the simple layout.

This one came all the way from Alaska and was made by MJ.  She used a cute Level 2 hostess stamp set.

It really is great to be a part of a team.  We laugh, share and enjoy each other.  Whether you want to become a hobby demonstrator all the way to a full-fledged business demonstrator, this is the BEST time to become a demo.  Not only will you get a great starter kit and another FREE stamp set of your choice from any current catalog, but you will also get to come to all my upline meetings, my downline meetings and any special events that we hold for demonstrators only.  I don't show you half of what I get or what goes on.  Free stamping, great friends, shared ideas, an amazing magazine, sneak peeks, Convention!, and so much more are what you get when you join.  No way is this just about getting just the discount.  

I would LOVE to talk to you about this great opportunity.  Email me or call me to set up a time to chat! The craft industry is booming right now so it's an especially great time to join.

Happy Stampin'!

Fun Valentine Ideas

How cute is this?  My friend Margaret made this and got the idea from Stampin' Up!'s wonderful Idea Book and Catalog.  It really is a great place for inspiration.  

My friend Reeda made this using the Pillow Box Die for the Big Shot, Large Oval Punch and the Heart to Heart punch from the Love You Much Bundle.

We made this cute Petal Box and put a chocolate inside.  

These are all fun ideas you can use for Valentine's Day or for any holiday or occasion that you want to give a little extra special something.

There's still plenty of time to order for Valentine's Day.  You can order online, email me or call me.  I do have an order going in Feb. 2nd if you want to save on shipping.  Any order over $25 will get you a free catalog.  Or, if you order online from Feb. 1st through April 30th you will get a catalog sent directly to you compliments of Stampin' Up!

Happy Stampin'!

More 3D fun!

I got this little happy treat from Jen.  She made these for everyone who participated in her challenge.  She used the Scallop Circle #2 for the wrap, a little ribbon and the cute Designer Label Punch.  You'll need to click on the picture to see it better.  The pencils she got from the Leadership Conference.  The Designs are from the Raspberry Tart Designer Paper.  Isn't yummy?  Click on the link and then click on more images to see all the paper images up close.  If you want a sample of all of the beautiful designer paper then join my paper club.  Click here to see the details.

Cute 3D Item Swaps

We have a sweet new gal coming to our group named Carmella and she made this CUTE little bag!  Don't you love it? She used the ever popular Love You Much Bundle.  I thought that this would be so fun for a workshop project, but I didn't have the cute little bags that she used.  So, I used the lunch bags that I have and came up with this:

I think the girls and I are going to come up with their Valentines for their classes and teachers.  I'll show you when I have a chance.

Have a great day!

Ribbon

Sometimes a little ribbon adds an amazing touch to your projects.  And it's really nice when you have just the right color for your card, scrapbook page, or altered object.  Still, spending over $460 to get all of the ribbon is pricey. Well, now you can have 1 yard of each type of ribbon (excluding Ribbon Originals) for $42.75.

Leadership Swaps from my Upline

Hello!  I didn't get to go to the Stampin' Up! Leadership Conference this year.  Sigh.  However, my wonderful upline, Jen, brought back some fun swaps so I can show you some new product from the new catalog.  Most of these did not have names, so I cannot give credit, but now of these are my work.  I thought you might enjoy glimpses of what you can get and do with the new stuff in the catalog!

This once shows the new Embosslits.  They cut and emboss at the same time through the Big Shot!  Can't wait to get my hands on those!  It's also using the new Raspberry Tart DSP.  So cute!

This is a Valentine with non-traditional colors.   How sweet is this?

The Love You Much Bundle is shown here and the one previous.  It's still on sale if you want to get it for 20% off! 

This was a sparkly one.  Love glitter, don't you?

These were just a few of her cute swaps.  Hope you enjoyed them!  The Love You Much Bundle is way, way worth the money!  You can order it online or email me!

Happy Stampin'!
