Special Delivery gift card

Hello Stampers!
I have a fun Christmas gift card to share with you today.
I used the Merry Little Labels stamp set.
Cut your 11"x8 1/2" sheet of card stock lengthwise at 4 1/4 inch.  Score at 2 7/8" and 5 1/2".  Then I used Tear and Tape to make a pocket for the gift card.
I attached the Layered Ovals with Dimensionals on the right side of the card so it will stay closed.

Thank you for joining me today!
Happy Stampin'!

Flourishing Phrases~Sympathy card

Hello Stampers!
Never a fun card to create in the month of December, but always needed. 
I used the Flourishing Phrases stamp set to create this card along with the sentiment from Rose Wonder.
Triple Banner Punch made creating the flag a snap!  Colors used were In Color Powder Pink, and retired Mint Macaron. 
I added Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the 'dots' on the image.  It adds some beauty to a simple card. 

Thank you for joining me today!

A snowless Christmas~

Hello Stampers!
Here is my project share for today.  This fun little card was created for a friend who lives near the beach and has never had a Christmas with snow!  Which for me is very hard to imagine being I am from Montana.
Beachy Little Christmas was the perfect stamp set to use for her.
The background was created with the Seaside Textured Impressions embossing folder.  How fun!  I love how Stampin' Up creates all sorts of products that can be used together to create a perfect card.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Created with the Card Front Builder Thinlits, Layering Circles framelits and stamped sentiment from the Star of Light photopolymer stamp set.
The sweet little deer was cut out of Gold Foil Sheets.  Tranquil Tide, Whisper White were the colors I used along with a piece of DSP from the Delightful Daisy.

Quick and simple Christmas card Challenge

Hello Stampers!
Christmas card in a snap Challenge!  I was once again challenged to create a Christmas card with whatever I had on my craft table in 5 minutes or less.  I had several pieces already cut out from the Card Front Builder Thinlits Dies so I grabbed some trees and a deer.
Then with the Carols of Christmas stamp set I heat embossed the sentiment on Whisper White Thick and cut it out with the largest circle from the Stitched Shapes Framelits. 
Pretty simple layout for a quick card.  To add texture to the trees I embossed them in the Seaside textured impressions embossing folder.

Thank you for joining me today!

The amazing Stamparatus!

Hello Stampers!
Have you seen this new amazing product from Stampin' Up online?
The Stamparatus is an indispensable positioning tool that allows you prefect placement EVERY time!  Input from thousands of demonstrators resulted in a product with all of the very best features and non of the drawbacks of other positioners--with a sleek and sturdy design and some WOW new developments, to boot!


  •       Multi-step stamping?  BRING IT ON!  You'll never waste cardstock trying to line things up again.
  • Multiples of the same card?  No Problem!  Set it up once and stamp as many as you want!
  • Partially-stamp an image?  Never fear!  You can stamp again in precisely the same spot.
Here's just a few features of this awesome new workhorse...it's going to change everything you know about stamping.
  • Compatible with both red rubber cling-mount and photopolymer stamps.
  • Build-in rules and grid lines for quick measuring and placement.
  • 2 open sides so you can stamp on larger paper, but not take up tons of space.
  • 2 clear grid reversible hinged plates: a total of 4 surfaces to work with without having to change stamps!
  • 2 strong bar magnets to hold the paper in place 
  • magnet storage areas built into the bottom of the workface--never lose them!
  • Foam mat to use with photopolymer stamps included, for best impressions.
  • Easily wipes clean with baby wipes or tissue

Isn't that sooo exciting?  I'm so excited to get my hands on this amazing product to share at my PMS night!  Of course, the rush to order this new tool is expected to be pretty intense.  Stampin' Up hates to disappoint anyone with back ordered items so they are offering three special "Reservation periods to help space out the shipments, since the manufactures can only produce so many at one time.  The special preorder reservations periods are as follows:

  • December 5-30th (for delivery approx March 15th, 2018)
  • January 15-30th, 2018 (for delivery about April 15th, 2018)
I can't wait to share in this fun, one-of-a-kind pre order with you!  If you have any questions please feel free to email me.  And if you're local, watch for this new tool at my events beginning January 1st!
