January Thank You Card

These little cards are going out to customers who placed an order in January.

That butterfly image and "Thanks" are from the sympathy set called Thanks for Caring in Stampin' Up!s occasions mini catalog. I got the layout idea from fellow SU demonstrator Angie Juda.

I love how the sketchy lines of the butterfly coordinate so well with the loose lines of the Summer Garden designer series paper.

For a quick touch of color, I used sponge daubers in Pear Pizzaz and Poppy Parade and daubed over the butterfly.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Hanging Heart Box

Here's a fun way to present a little Valentine gift.

The template for this heart box is in my February 2011 newsletter.


Not on the list? Sign up here.

Details:

• Scalloped Heart of Hearts embosslit creates the heart tag in 1 pass through the Big Shot
• "friend to friend" is part of the Love You Much stamp set but a similar version is in Teeny Tiny Wishes
• Modern Label and Scallop Border punches add pizazz with just a couple squeezes
• the antique brad ties it all together with a hint of holidays gone by

That's all I've got! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Purse With Glimmer Paper Tag

Here's the other project I mentioned last week that I made using Stampin' Up!s new Glimmer Paper.

Isn't that a fun embellishment? What girl doesn't love to see her initial done in red glitter?

These were the favors for my daughter's slumber party. I'm still focused on using up old designer series paper and this pattern was perfect for these little purses.

The basic shape is the Top Note die run through the Big Shot. Two stick-on rhinestones add just the right touch of bling to the bag. And it's all tied up with 5/8" Satin Ribbon.


Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Free Bliss Stamp Set Ideas

Having trouble deciding what free item(s) to choose during Sale-a-bration? Here's a video showing a couple cute project ideas for the Bliss stamp set.



Hope you enjoy watching Shannon from the Stampin' Up! office. I was sick for a few days and then I've been too cold to do much! School was actually canceled for the past 2 days due to the "extreme cold".

Stay warm and thanks for stopping by!

oh--shipping time has been great for the Sale-a-bration orders, most are going out within 2 days! Ready to order? Head to my online stamping store.

Glimmer Paper Valentine

Have you seen Stampin' Up!s new glimmer paper? It's perfect for making sparkly Valentines without the glitter mess.
This is one of the cards we are making today at Cards of the Month Club. Glimmer Paper is one of the fun new items in the Occasions mini-catalog.

other Stampin' Up! supplies used for this card:
cardstock: real red, whisper white, basic black
stamp set: Love You Much
ink: StazOn Jet Black and real red stampin' write marker
tools: Big Shot with square lattice embossing folder and scalloped heart of hearts embosslit, scallop edge border punch and extra-large heart to heart punch

Since the card base is black, the inside is lined with whisper white.
I'll show you another little project I used the Glimmer Paper on tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great Friday!

More To Sale-a-brate

Sale-a-bration is a great time to join Stampin' Up! as a demonstrator. Talk about double-dipping! You can:

• purchase the starter kit at a 15% discount which means you get over $310 of products for only $148.75!!
• receive a Bonus Bundle (up to $50) on top of the fabulous Starter Kit
• AND if you join soon, you'll have enough time to hold your first workshop* during Sale-a-bration which runs through March 31

*you receive a 30% discount on your first order placed as a demonstrator so it's fantastic to be able to place that order during Sale-a-bration

.

.

Becoming a Demonstrator FAQs:

.

Do I get a discount? Yes, the base demonstrator discount is 20%.

.

Do I have to sell or order a minimum amount? Yes, but it is not a large amount. Stampin' Up! demonstrators have a $300/quarter (so $100/month) minimum order requirement to stay active. Many "demonstrators" never hold a workshop, they just order that much for their own scrapbooking/crafting needs while enjoying the discount and special perks for demonstrators.

.

Isn't hard to be creative all the time? You don't have to be. We have such a sharing group of demonstrators and our own online community that you could hold hundreds of workshops and never once have to come up with your own project!

.

How do I sign up? It's easy! You can email me with your phone number and I will call you. Or if you want to do it RIGHT NOW, follow the link at the end and use demonstrator authorization password "stampin4fun". Click here to sign up

.

.

And one of the best things about signing up to be a Stampin' Up! demonstrator?

.

There's no penalty for changing your mind. You get over $310 of products for $148.75 and if you decide you don't want to be demonstrator, you do not ever have to place another order. You can just enjoy the fabulous starter kit, no one will be mean to you! :) Although, I think you will find it's a fun opportunity.

That's all I've got! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Have Your Button and Send It Too!

If you love buttons on cards, but not the hassle of extra padding for the mail...then you will love Stampin' Up!s new Button, Button stamp set.

This Valentine card also uses Stampin' Up!s new Framed Tulips embossing folder for the Big Shot. What a great tool for making a simple card that looks fantastic.

Both of these items are in the new Occasions mini-catalog. If you need a copy, just email me (or your current Stampin' Up! demonstrator) to get one sent out right away.

I apologize for the long delay but hope to be back on a more regular schedule now--just in time for Sale-a-bration!! Details tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
