Countdown to Christmas

Can you believe it?  There are only 6 months until Christmas!  This card is one that I posted before but since it is one of my most repinned pins on Pinterest, I thought I would share it again.  It is easy to make, especially if you want to make a lot of them.  Below is the same card with the package & bow colors reversed.

Let me show you how easy it is to make a beautiful card like this one!

CONTACT ME and arrange a private class for you and your friends to make these cards.

June Show & Tell Cards

I encourage my regular stamp club ladies to bring something that they have made since our last meeting for "Show & Tell."  (Can you tell that I am a Preschool teacher?)    This is just one way that I encourage them to keep stamping between our monthly meetings.  The above card was made by Lyn, and the three cards below were made by Patti.

 Karen also brought a cute card to show, but you will have to wait until July 4th to see it!

PLEASE CONTACT ME if you would like more information about my stamp club meetings.

June's Paper Pumpkin Kit

This past weekend I had 4 stamp club meetings where close to 20 ladies stopped by for some stamping fun.  They each had one of these cute pinwheels at their stamping space, as a thank you gift from me, for stopping by to stamp!  These pinwheels are from the June Paper Pumpkin kit by Stampin' Up!  Paper Pumpkin is a monthly subscription kit that comes directly to your mailbox each month, with everything you need for a 30 minute creative escape.  (You may also need adhesive and scissors to complete your project.)  If you would like more information about Paper Pumpkin, please click the link at the top or bottom of this page.

Vivid Vases

I made these cards using the new Blendabilities markers from Stampin' Up!  These are alcohol based markers that come 3 in a pack, each one is a dark, medium, or light shade of the same color.  Everyone who came to my "Get the Scoop" event earlier this month, had a chance to try out these markers.  They were a big hit.  You have to see the cards in person to really appreciate the shades of color.

These markers will not be available to purchase until later this month or sometime next month!  They will be worth waiting for!  In the meantime, come over and stamp with me and try them out before you buy!

More In Color Cards

 Here are more cards using the new In Colors from Stampin' Up!  We made these at my "Get the Scoop" event earlier this month.  We used the Mosaic Madness stamp set and coordinating punch to make these cards.  These are actually note cards that measure 5 x 3 1/2 inches.

This was the card that Nancy made.  She decided to use all of the colors to make her card, and it looks great!

My stamp club meetings start today!  It is always fun to get together with friends - both new and old - for some stamping fun.

The New In Colors!

This is one the cards we made at my "Get the Scoop" stamping event.  It was a chance to stop by to make 3 cards using the new In Colors from Stampin' Up!  These colors are a great addition to our already fabulous collection of card stock and ink.  For the above card I used the hexagon punch to cut the cardstock strips into banners.  The flowers were made using one of the punches from the new punch pack.

The card below uses the star punch from that pack, and shows another way to make a card using the same strips of paper.

My regular stamp club meetings are coming up this weekend. I would love to have you join me! Some of the sessions are already full.  So don't miss out!  CLICK HERE to see my class schedule and then CLICK HERE  to RSVP or to set up a private class for you and your friends!

World Map

This is the SWAP card I received from my upline, Susan Elise.  She is the person who convinced me to join the Stampin' Up! family over 6 years ago!  I always said that I could never be in direct sales..........but she reminded me that I am a teacher.  And that is exactly what I do -  I teach people how to use the FABULOUS products from Stampin' Up!  And when I do that, most people can not resist joining in on the fun of stamping.  Being creative is a great way to relax and forget about your troubles!  So if you haven't already, why don't you join me at a stamp club meeting to see what it's all about?

Tea Party

Here is another SWAP card I received at last month's Southern Stars meeting.  It was made by Margaret.  The stamp set is Tea Party.  This is a really cute card, and easy for you to copy, if you don't mind "fussy cutting" the teacup and saucer.

Sea Street

This is another SWAP card I received at last month's Southern Stars meeting.  Sarah used the brand new stamp set, Sea Street,  from the new Stampin' Up! annual catalog to make this card..  I love all the layers on this card, and the added texture with the linen thread.

Bloom With Hope

This is a card that I received from Kelly, one of my "sister" stampers, at last month's Southern Stars team meeting. She used the stamp set, Bloom With Hope, from the new Stampin' Up! annual catalog.  It is a set of 11 stamps, with lots of pretty flowers and greetings suitable for birthday, sympathy, or thinking of you cards.  This is a hostess only set, so if you want it - you will have to join one of my stamp clubs, have a private class with your friends, or place an order of $150. Then the set could be yours for FREE!   Kelly used the new In Colors to make this card.  She colored the flower using the new Blendabilities markers.  Join me at one of my stamping events to see why everyone is talking about these markers!

New Colors!

This is a card that I received in a SWAP at last month's Southern Stars team meeting.  It was made by Marion and she used all the new In Colors to make this card: Blackberry Bliss, Lost Lagoon, Tangelo Twist, Hello Honey, and Mossy Meadow (ribbon color.)

If you stop by my house this weekend, you will get a chance to see these colors in person.  Make two cards, a card stock color chart, and have fun stamping.........all for FREE!  I will have games and prizes and will also explain how you can earn FREE merchandise.

Something for Baby

How cute is this card?!  I made it for a baby who is due any day now!  I used the brand new stamp set Something for Baby and coordinating framelits dies to make this card.  I "CASED" the idea from Deb Valder.  I think we will make this card at my June stamp club meetings.  This card is actually fairly easy to make, and having the framelits makes it a lot easier - no fussy cutting involved!  This card does fold up flat, but you will have to make your own envelope since it is a little too big to fit in a regular sized envelope.

Visit my MY STAMPIN' UP! WEBSITE to shop 24/7 and to view this month's stamping events.  This weekend I have 3 FREE stamping sessions.  Space is limited, so please RSVP to get your preferred spot.

Tea, anyone?

This is the 3D project we made at our stamp club meeting in May.  I also gave one of these to everyone who attended my CREATIVE ESCAPE in April.  This project was designed by Brenda Quintana and you can find the directions on her blog, Qbees Quest.  This is not as hard to make as you might think!  Come join me at my monthly stamp club meeting and you will learn how to make cute little things like this!

Flip Flap Card

This was the "Bonus" card we made at my May stamp club meetings.  It is a Flip Flap card.  I saw several examples of this kind of card on Pintrest.  We started with Coastal Cabana card stock.  Everyone chose their favorite print from the Fresh Prints Designer Series Paper Stack.  We used the 2 1/2 circle, 2 3/8 scallop circle, 1 3/4 circle, 1 3/8 circle, BoHo Blossom, and mini punch pack punches to finish the card. The chevrons were cut using the Circle Card Framelit (although Stampin' Up! now sells a chevron punch!)

This is how the card opens.  (The little flower is there to help keep the card closed!)  Other card stock colors are Real Red, Crumb Cake, and Whisper White. The "For You" stamp is from the Chalk Talk stamp set by Stampin' Up!

The new Stampin' Up catalog goes live at 1 pm Eastern time tomorrow!!!!
