Have you seen our Incredible Like You card kit? I LOVE it! I don't know why I waited so long to make it! All you need is the Incredible Like you Stamp Set, Lovely Lipstick and Costal Cabana Stamp pads or similar colors. This is what comes with it:
It took me 45 minutes to make the 16 cards. It comes with coordinating envelopes.
I took a close up of each card.
Here is a video I made showing all that comes in the kit and give a few tips:
Happy Stamping!

We had our On Stage event this past weekend. It was so much fun! I love getting together with other demonstrators! It started Friday night with a special night for leaders. At every stamping event we get a bag. Isn't this cute!
They had beautiful flowers on the tables.
A great meal and many desserts to pick from! Of course we had several!
The best part besides connecting with friends from all over, is we get the catalog early!
We had several from our group and extended downline qualify to attend. (for the event on Friday you need to be a Silver Elite - you need a mixture of recruits and sales to achieve this)
I signed up to be a demonstrator 22 years ago under Sue Nurnberger. It is always fun to see her at these events.
On our way out we each received this cute bag and a new punch which will be in our next catalog!
On Saturday is the main even for all demonstrators. The event in the midwest is always has the largest attendance. Look how big our group is!
Saturday is filled with learning about products in the new catalog, card exchanges, business tips, recognition, and of course stamping!
We get to see display boards like this with new products.
They decorated the tables like this: (the mini Stampin Up box is available in the next catalog. Aren't they cute?
We got to use several new products to make the cards.
Below is going to be in the May Paper Pumpkin kit. Shelli designed it. Sign up now so you can make them!
At the end of our time making the project, they let our table of 6 keep all the items used! This is what I ended up with.
I also got all of these new items:
After On Stage, I invited our group over for dinner. 35 people came! My mom was there to get it all started.
I covered water bottles with our designer series paper.
Covered Chocolates are always a hit!
I passed out these tiny treat boxes to demonstrators at On Stage.
I bought some empty stamp cases and cut designer series paper to fit inside. These were gifts for my personal recruits who attended. This is great way to store your shammy.
This is what was on the inside. Shammy, Share What You Love Pearls, pen, and of course chocolates!
I would love for you to join us at the next one in November!
Happy Stamping!

Stampin Up has so many great punches. I love when we have punches that coordinate with our sets. I also like using punches over dies when I am making multiple of the same card. They are so quick to use! This year Stampin Up is retiring several of our punches. They are available while supplies last so don't wait!
I looked through some cards I have make awhile back using some of the punches retiring. This first card uses many different sizes of circles. We will still have the 2 1/4", 2", 1 1/2", 1", and 1/2 inch. If you want the other sizes, order them now.
This card used the Blossom Builder Punch with one of our retired embossing folders.

I LOVE our Painted Seasons Designer Series Paper. It has so many fun colors and both sides are great to work with!
It is only available while supplies last, or until the end of March for FREE with a $50 order.
With a $100 order you can get the coordinating stamp set and the Painted Seasons Paper free.
I wanted to design a quick and easy card to show how great this paper is, and this is what I came up with:
I just love the colors! Poppy Parade was In Color awhile back, and it came back with our color revamp. Crisp Cantaloupe looks great with it. I love getting color combinations from our designer series paper packs.
For the Greeting I used a new to me set, Friendly Expressions. I like the 2 different fonts in it. It is $19 for the clear mount set. The greetings are a great size.
If you are loving Painted Seasons Designer Series Paper like I am, do not wait to order. I would hate for it to run out before you get your order in!

Today is my grandma's 91st birthday. I decided to make her a card using the elegant Wonderful Romance Stamp Set. I love all that is in the Floral Romance suite. I used the stamp set, dies, and the embossing folder.
My Grandma loves getting my hand stamped cards. I wrote on a separate piece of paper so she can send the card to someone else when she is done having it on display in her kitchen. My grandma is so good about sending cards to others. Each kid, grandkid and great grandchild gets their own card in the mail for Christmas, Valentines Day, Easter, and Birthdays. Isn't she cute!
I am so lucky to have her living so close to me. We were supposed to go out to eat today, but with getting 6-7 inches of snow, we decided to wait until next week for that and we brought Chinese food to her. Lucky for me, I get lunch with her again next week!

Have you tried our foil paper? It looks absolutely stunning run through the big shot with an embossing folder. I used it with our new Lace Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.
I also used the foil for the scalloped circle. Right now you can get a pack of Grapefruit Grove & Lovely Lipstick Foil paper Free with a $50 order. I have been told they believe they will run out of these, so don't wait if it is something you would like. We also sell a few colors of it in our catalog.
The Wonderful Floral dies have so many great options of dies. I like how the leaves get a texture to them.

Happy Valentines Day! This year I decided to not buy a Valentine Stamp set as I was thinking I had plenty to use from other years. I then decided to use Hello Cupcake from our Sale-A-Bration choices as there was a little heart to stick on the cupcake. I also liked the greeting Sprinkled with Love. This card could be for a birthday too. When I send cards, I cut a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of white card stock to write on, and I don't adhere it so then the person can throw that out and reuse the card. The card itself is a little gift for them! By just stamping Happy Valentines Day on the insert, this card could be used for other occasions.
The Designer Series Paper I used is also a Sale-A-Bration item, Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper. This shows the other side of the designer series paper.
I used Wink of Stella Glitter Brush on the frosting and the heart. It is a little hard to tell. It blended in the color of the frosting while adding a little glitter to it.
Wink of Stella is a great little embellishment that you could add to many different cards. It is $8.00 and lasts you quite awhile.

When I was creating yesterday, I made 2 cards using the Coastal Cabana/Granny Apple Green 3/8" Reversible Ribbon. This is the second card. I thought Gorgeous Grape would be a good color to put with Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple Green. When I went to get the card stock, I realized I have not used any Gorgeous Grape Card Stock since the color came out in June! I have used the stamp pad, but not the card stock. I am glad I finally did as I really like it. If your school colors have purple in it, this is the color for you. In Minnesota it is Viking Purple!

Do you love cupcakes? I do! I really like the stamp set Hello Cupcake that is free with a $50 order while supplies last or through March 31! Most of the cards I have been making are more for feminine, so I wanted to make a card that I could give a guy. I also wanted to use our new Coastal Cabana/Granny Apple Green 3/8" reversible ribbon since I just got it. Do you ever think you have ordered something, and then go to use it, and then realize you didn't actually order it? That is what happened to me. It came today so I went right into my stamping studio to create.
Since the ribbon already has 2 colors in it, I just needed to come up with one more color, and I chose Blueberry Bushel. It is an In Color that is available through May 2020. I like how it is brighter and a little bit lighter than Night of Navy, but not as bright as Pacific Point.
I first stamped Celebrate your Day all over the background of the card. I then stamped the frosting using Blueberry Bushel, and the cake part using Coastal Cabana. I then filled in the space in-between the frosting and cake with the skinny cake stamp. For this I inked up using Blueberry Bushel, and then stamped off first on a scrap and then stamped onto the white piece. This gives it a little bit lighter color.
I used layering circle dies to cut out the circle and the scallop piece.
To add the ribbon, I put adhesive all around the back of the scallop, and then started at the top and went back and forth with the ribbon so you could see both sides of it. Isn't that ribbon great! You get 10 yards for $7.
