April 2018 OnStage Highlights

Look at all the fun we have at Stampin' Up!'s OnStage!

If you sign-up this month, you not only have the opportunity to attend with me,

but you also can choose a FREE set of stamp pads (10 pads in one color family)!

This is in addition to the amazing products in your starter kit.







If you have questions, I'd love to answer them.

Are you a paper lover?

Are you a paper lover?  Maybe a better question is are you a paper horder?  I think I'm guilty of both, unfortunately!  Every year I fall in love with all the papers in the Stampin' Up! catalog.  And who could blame me?  They are absolutely gorgeous, and they coordinate so wonderfully with all the other color coordinated products that Stampin' Up! sells.

I say all of this to let you know that if you are guilty of being in love with paper or you are a horder or both, select Designer Series Papers (DSP) from the new catalog are on sale.  It's a Buy 3 get 1 FREE special!  Secondly, I'd say to you "go use that paper"!  I know it's pretty, but let others see how pretty it is in the projects that you make.

Where does the time go?

I keep asking myself this question, and I'm pretty sure that you have too.  Where does the time go?  I've been so busy getting ready for a family reunion and getting familiar with my new role at the bible study that I'm a part of, that I really didn't think it had been that long since posting here.  Boy was I wrong!

Last weekend I had a great customer appreciation event.  Ladies came and picked up the new catalog, enjoyed some food, looked at some new product and stamped a little bit.  They also received prizes from my prize patrol drawings.  It was fun to see everyone and give back a little for all they do for me!

This week, I had my monthly stamp club.  It was a great time with special ladies that I enjoy spending time with.  Oh, and I love stamping with them too.  It would have been even better if all of us who drove there didn't drive home with hail damage to our cars!  Oh well, that's why we have insurance.

Here are the cards we made at stamp club:

Happy stamping!

In With the New

Today is the day that the new SU! catalog goes live!  Yeah!!!  

I've had my chance to pre-order select items from it this past month, and I have to say that I simply love so much of it.  

Today I'm sharing a couple of the products that are my favorites.  

The first of my favorites is the Stamparatus.  It is an inovative stamp positioning tool.  It is in the new catalog, and you can now get your hands on one too.

Another of my favorites is the Abstract Impressions Bundle.  The stamp set has great 2-step images that give an impressionist art quality to your projects as well as some great greetings.  

I hope I've peeked your interest in the new catalog!  If you don't have a copy, let me know.  I'd be glad to get one in your hands.  And, you can view it online today after noon mountain time.

Happy stamping!

Just for the "case" of it!

I'm sharing another card that I cased (copy and share everything) from my friend and fellow demonstrator Leanne Livingstone.  I loved the layout and when I saw the Share What You Love Designer Series Papers, I knew they would look so good with it.

I think this layout would be great for using up all that gorgeous paper that we all (I know you have a stash somewhere) have, but hesitate to use because it's just so pretty!  The card goes together so quickly that you can create a bunch in no time at all.  Go give it a try, and then share your creations with me.

Happy stamping!

Love What You Do!

Do you love what you do?  One of the things I really do love about being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator is that I get to share my love of rubber stamping with others.  It's amazing to see someone's face light up when they first try creating something using a rubber stamp and a little ink onto paper.  

This card was created using some new products that will be available in the new catalog.  It goes live on the 1st of June, but there are special bundles that Stampin' Up! has put together so that you can get your hands on these products now!  The idea for this card was cased (copy and share everything) almost in it's entirety from a fellow demonstrator, Lisa Curcio.  I added the Rich Razzelberry Velvet ribbon because it is just so beautful.  I hope you'll give this bundle a try.

Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping!
