Note Cards

Here are two of the note cards we will be making at my notecard class next Thursday.  I used the new Flower Garden Embossing Folder and then took a sanding block to sand off some of the color of the embossed area.  The greeting is from a new set in the Summer Mini Catalog called Happy Greetings.

For this note card I used The Open Sea a set from the Summer Mini and Baker's Twine which is also in the mini.  Can you tell I LOVE the new Mini catalog?

Make and Takes from Leadership

A highlight at any stamping event is the Make and Takes.  This year, Stampin Up! came up with some amazing projects!

This first project is a card Shelli's daughter Sarah taught us how to do using My Digital Studio.  They printed it for us, and we simply added ribbon to it. 

We made this card using Clearly For You, a new set from the Occasions Mini catalog.  We were given this set when we arrived.  I like how we crimped just the bottom of the card.

This is a case that the clear mount sets come in.  We sell them in the catalog.  We decorated the outside of it.  You can use them to give a set of cards or notebook.  Notice the key on the ribbon?  We used 4 keys on the different projects.  They are available in a pack of 4 in the mini catalog.  They come with jump rings and lobster clasps so the can easily clip on things.

My favorite thing we made were inserts for our Simply Adorned Jewlery.  They gave us a long chain and the 1.5 X 2" charm.  We made 3 inserts for it. I love that you only need to buy one charm, and can make many different inserts so it looks like a new necklace.  We used ribbon as a "chain" too.

 Here is a look of all the projects together. The container at the top is what all of our supplies came in.

We had a fun time!  Here are the demonstrators from our group that attended.

Wendy Fassbender, Jessica Taylor, Kristen, Kandi Williams, Melony Bishop, Karen Cooper, Lyssa Zwolanek

 

If are interested in making any of these projects, I would love to help you.

Leadership Day 2

I have stated before that this year Stampin Up gave us so much!  One way they give out things is by colored pins that they give us when we check in.  They call out a color, and everyone with that color receives that product.  Karen Cooper received the new Take A Spin stamp set and the Game Spinner Hands. 

Stampin Up had this sample on display using this set.  The Pompom trim is available in our mini catalog.  You can get it in Melon Mambo, Tangerine Tango and Daffodil Delight.  The designer Series Paper is from the Sale-A-Bration catalog.  Beginning January 25th you can get a pack free with a $50 order.

Jessica Taylor's color was called shortly after Karen's.  She won a few Items from our Sew Suite line in the Occasions Mini catalog. 

At the end they gave EVERYONE a pack of Designer Big Buttons, Some of the Designer Fabric Sweet Stitches, and the Level 2 hostess set in the Occasions Mini, Something to Celebrate.

In the evening we had make and takes.  They were the best Make and Takes we have ever made at an event.  I will show you them all tomorrow, but here is a look at one of them.  We made this pin using Springtime Vintage Designer Fabric, and the Bigz Die Fun Flowers.  This die is on the top of my wish list. 

While we were working on our make and takes, Pam Morgan Vice President and part of Demonstrator Relations for Stampin Up, came up to Wendy to see what she had been knitting.

She had been making socks.  I love how Stampin Up employees are so down to earth and are truely interested in us.  They are an amazing company to work for!

 

New Mini Catalog

The new mini catalog items are now available!  If you would like me so send you a mini catalog, let me know.

Pictured below is a card we will be making at my Christmas Card event on Thursday September 23rd

It uses a new punch from the mini called Decorative Label.  I love it!

Here is the inside.  I used the ornament punch to create a window.  The ribbon is our 1/8" ribbon which is new this year. 

If you do not get my newsletter today with even more ideas, please leave a comment and I can add you to my distribution list. 

Have a great day!

Make and Takes

Here is a picture of my first level recruits that attended Regionals with me:

 

Kim, Jessica, Ann, Helen and myself

Make and Takes are always a fun time of any event!  We were all given the Vintage Vogue set as we came.  I just designed a cute card with it today for my Stamp-A-Stack next week. 

It is fun to visit as we make cards that we did not have to prepare!

A Scrapbook page for a 5X7 picture

This set is available till the end of April, and then Stampin Up has decided to put it in the new catalog coming in July.

The little envelope and note are in the Mini Catalog that ends this month.  Order now if you want them!
