Here is another project from the Open House. It is made with the "Great Friend" set from the Occasions Mini Catalog.. one of my favorite sets! It also uses the beautiful and soft and silky new 5/8" white satin ribbon from the Occasions Mini Catalog, and the Eyelet Border Punch from the Idea Book and Catalog.
Enjoy!
For many people, scrapbooking has played an important role in their lives. It may have started with something simple: the first time they placed a sticker on a piece of paper or picked up a camera. Perhaps for you, it was the first time you realized you could make lasting memories for years to come. But no matter what brought a person to scrapbooking, all scrapbookers have something in common with Stampin' Up! demonstrators: they love to create.
During the month of May, I will be celebrating National Scrapbooking Month. This is an opportunity for me to inspire your creativity and share some wonderful scrapbooking classes and tips with you. Stay tuned!
Keep your eye on my blog and newsletters for the amazing offers Stampin' Up! has in store for the month of May.
Still thinking about the NEW Pop Up Dies?
These new Dies are such a great addition to the Big Shot Die product line. Think of how wonderful it would be to have someone open a card from you and have the cake pop up! You can check out the video here and see how to add a whole new dimension to your card making. You can also be creative and not just decorate it as a cake. I have seen many other ideas for the use of this Die.
Contact me for more information.
Did you miss the Open House?
If you did, I am so sorry! Here is a project we made that weekend. It is made with the Texturz Impressions Plates (Big Shot), Bella Birds DSP, the new Scallop Oval Punch and the new "Ovals All" stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalog. Isn't it a beautiful card?
Don't forget.. for every $40 purchase you make from the Occasions Mini Catalog, you get to chose anything for FREE from page 208 in the big Idea Book and Catalog. But this offer is only good through next Thursday, April 30! Don't miss out on this opportunity!
Easter is one of my favorite days of the year.
After church, we usually have a large group here for a midday meal, with an Easter egg hunt and all kinds of fun. Because of all that was happening in our home the months before Easter, with my dear husband's illness, we decided to gear down a little. It was just us four--Mark, myself, our daughter Rachel, and our son Chad-- with our son Chad's girlfriend, Serena, all together. We ate outside on the patio and it was wonderful.
It was a completely different way to spend the day, but it was great for us to be all together, and healthy!
Have you seen our new Window Sheets in the Occasions Mini Catalog?
Click the video about and check out these great new products. Create or add the Window Sheets with cardstock or Designer Series Paper and the possibilities are endless. You will get a whole new look to your creations. Contact me for more information or purchase your Window Sheets on my Stampin' Up! website here.
They are one of my favorite new products. We have a few different types of Window Sheets. The first type is printed with Whisper White images so that you can just cut and use on your cardfronts. The other types are clear and come in 7 mil or 20 mil weight. The 20 mil are perfect for creating clear boxes and baskets with the Big Shot Dies. The 7mil are perfect for using as windows, on scrapbook pages or add Rub-ons to give your project that perfect look.
During the month of April, Get Connected!
In these current economic times, I know you are trying to spend less and stay closer to home more often; and you may be looking for ways that you can still connect with those you love without spending a lot of money. Well, what better way than through creating a handmade creation with products from our new Occasions Mini Catalog?
Here are two ways you can do that:
Customers
Spend $40 on Occasions Mini Catalog products and choose any one item from the "Under $10" page in the Spring-Summer 2009 Idea Book & Catalog for free.
Hostesses
Hold a workshop of $150 or more and choose any one item from the "Under $10" page in the Spring-Summer 2009 Idea Book & Catalog for free. For every $150 spent at the workshop, the hostess will receive another "Under $10" item.
Contact me for more information, to book your workshop, or simply visit my Stampin' Up! website to place your order and choose your "Under $10" item.
Last month you had a chance to sneak a peek at a few select stamp sets from the Occasions Mini Catalog. Now you can view the FULL catalog here.
This new Mini has a great variety of new products which include a new Matchbox Die for the Big Shot and a coordinating stamp set. How cool is that?!
