Lots of fun images to choose from to help you get your holiday cards made! If you haven’t registered for class already, you still can!
Last week I attended Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage convention in Orlando with five other demonstratorsin my Butterfly Friends Stamping Team. We had a blast being silly, seeing new products, winning prizes and being together. It has been a true joy to get to know people through my Stampin’ Up! business and I would have never met any of these incredible women if I hadn’t become a demonstrator. This fact is amazing to me!
I am happy to have been a part of Stampin’ Up! for 19 of their 30 years! What a journey it has been and the friendships are the best part. And right after friendships are stamps, ink and paper! Think of all the art we have created over the years together. I am so thankful for all my stamping friends.
This new stamp set, Amazing Life, is so appropriate for this post and card making moment because it mirrors exactly how I feel when I think about all the customers I’ve met who are now friends and/or demonstrators with me. I created this card to send to my fellow OnStage travelers (shh, don’t tell them) and hope that they know how much I love them! Do you see the new Gingham Gala DSP on this card????
Not me. Stampin’ Up! is celebrating 30 years of business, and we are gathering in Orlando to celebrate this amazing company! We’ll be talking paper crafting for days! And playing. And giving each other handmade gifts like this one. This is what I’m giving to my demonstrator friends to thank them for sticking with me in this fun business!
Need more fun and friends in your life? Be a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator!!!
Happy Halloween! May your day only be as scary as you want it to be!
Take a look at the simple cards I made for friends and family this year. I’m so glad I had my Paper Pumpkin kit to inspire creativity in October.
From food to transportation and everything in between, I am so very grateful for all the help I’ve been gifted while healing from foot surgery. I have been on the receiving end of friendship in action these past six weeks, and am happily in need of thank you notes to send to all my amazing friends. Using my handy dandy lap desk (Thanks, Pat!) I created some quick and easy thank you notes. Isn’t this stamp set a big bunch of fun? What do you think of this fun and peppy little stamp set, Abstract Impressions?
And of course I had help from my kitty friend. He is thankful too!
Supplies: Abstract Impression stamp set, Share What You Love DSP, White notecards & envelopes, Ink Pads (Mint Macaron, Tranquil Did, Rich Razzleberry, Blackberry Bliss, Memento Black) and Nature’s Twine.
It’s time to flip the switch from summer to fall and I cannot think of a better way to do this than to spend time soaking up the 2018 Holiday Catalog! It has 55 pages of inspirational bliss for your personal creativeness. Do you need one? Just Ask!

The view from my recliner is my newly reconstructed foot. Today is the 11th day (but who’s counting) of sitting, elevating and icing my foot. Although I’m out of my comfort zone being still, I’ve managed to surround my chair with projects to keep me company (sane) during my healing process. Many of these projects are stamping/crafting so I thought I’d share what I’ve been doing. I think I’ll call it Chair Crafting.
My youngest kiddo just started college and he asked me to send him some things from home, including a coaster for his desk. (????????) Since I am home bound for a few weeks I was delighted to realize that “I can make that!” So with a tray on my lap I created this coaster for him. I hope he likes it!
Directions for Stamping on Tumble Tile
The process was simple. I stamped the two images in Black StazOn ink first and heat set the ink to dry. Then I used ink and the Aqua Painter brush to make the watercolored background. After the ink was dry I sealed it with satin finishing spray. Boom!
Rooted in Nature is quickly becoming one of my favorite stamp sets because there is so many great images and greetings to combine. You can purchase the stamp set, the framelit set or bundle it together and save 10%. Check it out!
