Sweet Strawberry

One of the new, fun set in the January-June Mini Catalog is the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set  and it is Bundled with the Strawberry Builder Punch  (#156214)

I teamed it up with the Buffalo Check back ground stamp - one of my favorites and so versatile to use with anything!! (#151372)

The "vines" for the strawberries are from the Stitched Stars Dies (#150653)

The sentiment was stamped onto Basic Black card stock with Versa Mark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder

Card inspired by Rosanne Mulhern

Udderly Fabulous!

Besides being a mom and now a gramma, the best job I ever did was when I held a child care in my home. These kids are still so precious to me and I consider them my family. No matter how old they get they still call me "Auntie"
This card was made for one of my sweet girls who is having a birthday tomorrow. Growing up she always liked cows, so using the OVER THE MOON stamp set was a given. She's in college now, living away from home for the first time, so I hope that this card will brighten her day.
I loved this card so much that we will be using this for an upcoming class and the stampers will be able to choose their favorite color and favorite cow.

Product used:
Stamps: Over The Moon, Buffalo Check
Paper: Real Red, Pacific Point, Granny Apple Green, Crumb Cake, Whisper White
Ink; Memento Black, versa mark, Early Espresso

 She made these darling boxes that held 8 cards with envelopes and a ton of little tags

 She decorated a Mini Pizza Box
Another wonderful masculine set is A GOOD MAN
Janell made this first card

This second one I cased from Laura-Lee Doucet on the Demonstrator Planning Place Facebook page.
I just love to see how we can combine all our different sets like adding the gal from the WONDERFUL MOMENTS Stamp Set.

We're Having a Picnic, We Want You to Come!

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!
We are planning ahead for our Neighborhood Picnic

I used the BUFFALO CHECK Background Stamp for the base with Real Red Ink.  Added a few picnic ants marching along the bottom.
The invite was created on my computer using the My DIGITAL STUDIO program that Stampin' sold MANY years ago, and cut it out with the LOTS OF LABELS Dies (R)

This year I made 20 invites and Dale and I walked door to door to hand them out.

This started as an outreach that our church initiated last summer. We were encouraged to reach out to neighbors, friend, family & strangers. We chose to start an annual neighborhood picnic.  It was a huge hit last summer and everyone said that we should do it every year - so we are!!

Think of ways you can use your Stampin' Up! products to encourage someone or to make fun invitations like these. Don't be a card collector - SEND THEM TO SOMEONE and brighten their day!

Only ONE WEEK left to get in on the LAST CHANCE PRODUCTS. You can check it all out on the links below...
