Guest Stamper, Carla

These are the cards that were shared by Carla at our team meeting last week

Carla made this darling card for her daughter who is moving to a new home.
So much fun! Makes me think of the movie UP!

Carla's co-workers have been wanting some graduation cards, and she sure delivered with these cute cards using BEAUTIFUL YOU, THE SKY IS THE LIMIT (R) and the LARGE NUMBERS DIES (R)

It's so great to be able to pull out some of our retired product to team up with our current product to make great cards.

The Retiring Products Lists are available while supplies last or until June 2nd.

Another Graduation Card

I absolutely love this card!

How fun is this card using the BEAUTIFUL YOU Stamp Set. 

I don't know about you, but I was so excited to graduate from high school and this could easy be the dance I was doing way back then. 

This card was made by the ladies at one of my Tuesday classes because it also features some retired elements like the stamp set SKY IS THE LIMIT and the Designer Paper. 

Easy to duplicate though, buy choosing the graduation sentiment of your choice as well as the Designer Paper. 

Her Grad hat is 3/4" square and the little tassel is from the die from BIKE RIDE. 

If you want to be sure to get these LARGE NUMBERS DIES you need to grab them NOW before it is too late and they are all gone.

Fun Graduation Card

Here is another card that I was excited to make from my fussy cut pieces

Isn't this a fun graduation card using the LOVE YOU LOTS (retired) Stamp Set.

Isn't this just so cute!! It was inspired by Katy

What I changed up: I fit it onto a standard A2 size card (5 1/2" x 4 1/4") and added a graduation cap to the elephants head.

The balloons are from BALLOON CELEBRATION, and punched out with the BALLOON BOUQUET PUNCH. The clouds are from LIFT ME UP (Katy made a larger card so used the Ice cream stamp from SPRINKLES OF LIFE) and the sentiment from SKY IS THE LIMIT (Retired)

You Send Me Soaring

Time to post some Valentine Cards.  This stamp set is from the Sale a bration brochure from last year. See how important it is to get in on the sales each year to get your FREE product, because you can use it for years to come.

Here is another one from the same set...

They both are using the world map embossing folder.  A perfect combination.

Another reason why I share cards using retired product is because if you have purchased and gotten these items FREE during Sale-a-bration you might like to see some options to use your stamp sets on.

Thanks for stopping by!

Serene Scenery Part 1

This weeks blog postings I am going to be featuring the SERENE SCENERY Designer Paper Stack.
A Paper Stack is a pack of patterned paper that measures 6x6 and you get 48 sheets, 4 each of 12 double-sided designs
This particular pack of designer paper is so beautiful, filled with scenic prints
The SERENE SCENERY Designer Paper Stack coordinates with the following colors:
Bermuda Bay, Crumb Cake, Delightful Dijon, Island Indigo, Old Olive, Pool Party, & Whisper White
They are also Acid and Lignon Free so they are also safe for your scrapbook pages.

Card #1

 I love this beachy scene.  Added some sand pipers and beach grasses from the stamp set WETLANDS, a few added touches with a white gel pen highlights the waves and the birds wings. My GET WELL is a non Stampin' Up! die.  This is a perfect masculine get well card.
Here are the other products that I used on this card

You might remember this card that I posted on October 28th using the SERENE SCENERY Designer Paper Stack

Such fun paper to work with!  You can order yours today - just click HERE

Masculine Cards

Sometimes masculine cards are the hardest to come up with.  I love the Serene Scenery Designer Series Paper Pack.  This stack has 48 sheets of 6x6 double-sided sheets (4 each of 12 designs).  I needed some masculine cards for my fall birthdays and this paper that resembled a clouded sky was perfect for this card..

After cutting the Designer Paper to fit my card front (5 1/2 x 4 1/4) I was left with a 1 3/4" strip.  The flap of my envelope is 2 1/4" so I added a coordinating piece of card stock so that nothing went to waste.

The trees are from the fabulous LOVELY AS A TREE stamp set and the airplane and sentiment is from SKY IS THE LIMIT stamp set from the 2016 Sale a bration period (January through March). Stay tuned - Sale a bration is not too far away!! You will have the chance to get FREE Stamp Sets and Accessories! And I would be honored if you would choose me as your demonstrator.

Flores Suaves

Years ago Stampin' Up! used to have a separate small catalog with stamp sets in Spanish.  Most of the sets were available in English and Spanish, but for some reason this stamp set, FLORES SUAVES, was the only set they offered only in that catalog.  I immediately fell in love with it! These are the 4 images that are in this set.

At tomorrows COME STAMP WITH ME "class" I am featuring this stamp set on 2 of the 4 cards that will be out for you to stamp. (Tuesday, March 1, 2016)

(Inspired by Sharon)

So here's the deal:

I will be having a drawing - NOT to WIN the stamp set BUT to win the opportunity to PURCHASE this stamp set for only $15.00.  I have been telling you all that I am going to need to weed out some of my retired stamps to make room for when the new retiring list comes out in April, and this is just the beginning.  

The one who PURCHASES this stamp set will also receive any elements that are left over from the Tuesday Class (ex: daisies, any kits, etc.)  Some Tuesday's I have a few left over and some Tuesday's they completely sell out, but whatever is left over - the purchaser will get all of it)

Here are the other 2 cards that will be out for you to make tomorrow.

This one is a beautiful Wedding (or engagement) Card that measures 5x5.  You will go home with a special size envelope for this one. (Inspired by Vicki)

This cute Easter card is a pocket card.  Such a fun design. (Inspired by Julie)

I look forward to seeing you tomorrow when you COME STAMP WITH ME between the hours of 10:00am and 5:00pm.

Thanks for stopping by!

Bad News, Good News!

Bad News:
These three items from the Sale a bration brochure are retiring from the lineup on February 15th, so if you haven't had a chance to get to them you will want to be sure to snag them up while they are still available.

I think this cool airplane stamp will be great for graduation cards, but it is also good for sending your sweetie an anniversary card or just to tell him you love him as well as it is a great guy card for birthdays.

Here is a darling card made by my upline, Glenda, using the SKY IS THE LIMIT and the PERFECTLY ARTISTIC Designer Paper

GOOD  NEWS:

They are replacing these 3 items with 3 brand new items on February 16th!

Bicycle stamps are really the IN thing, and I love the phrases that are included.

I have seen this type of glitter tape at craft stores and wished that Stampin' Up! would come out with some and they sure did not disappoint.  Gold, Silver and White.  They come in a 3 pack and you can change up the color of the white tape using your Stampin' Up! Ink Pads and a sponge dauber.  Can't wait to get my hands on some of this!!

And I love any stamp sets that have great word phrases.  The balloon image coordinates with the Balloon Bouquet Punch in the Occasions Catalog

Be sure to take advantage of all the FREE products that you can during Sale a bration (January 5- March 31).  With every $50 purchase you make (before S&H and tax) and you get to choose one product from the Sale a bration brochure.

Show Box Swap Part 2

This is the card that Donne made for our Shoe Box Swap.  It is called a Shutter Card - how cute! She used the FREE (with a $50 order) stamp set The Sky Is The Limit from the Sale a bration catalog . You can get this stamp set FREE until February 15th with a $50 order.  Donne gave us step by step instruction for sure!

 Even the back side is stamped

 Inside:

How cute is this next card made by Carla?

Carla used the Friends and Flowers Stamp Set that she won at the OnStage in Wisconsin.  This stamp set coordinates perfectly with the Festive Flower Builder Punch that was carried over from the Holiday Catalog.  She also used the stamp set Big News from the Annual Catalog.

I hope you enjoyed seeing the cards from our Shoe Box Swap.
