Lots of Stampin' Up! Goodies!

2012-01-23T14:33:56-08:00

Yep, that is what I came home from Stampin' Up!'s Leadership Conference with!

I didn't even win a Prize Patrol and yet look at all the loot! I also stayed for the San Antonio Regional where I got some stuff! But most of it was from Leadership. What a great reason to attend a Stampin' Up! event. You do need to be a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator to attend these events! The next big one is Convention in Salt Lake City, July 18 -21, 2012. I am very excited for this one for I will be honored for my 20 years as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.

Here is a video of the convention highlights from the 2011 Stampin' Up! Convention

Apothecary Art

2012-01-19T02:01:00-08:00

For our Occasions Mini Swap, Elizabeth P. couldn't wait to get her hands on the Attic Boutique and in particular the Apothecary Art Stamp Set!

This card is so sweet with its little skirt. The box pleats are super simple to make with our Simply Scored. Notice the little scalloped border peeking out from under the ribbon? That is made with the new Adorning Accents Edglit and Embossing folders for the Big Shot! The lovely label made with the Framelit set just sets it off. See that narrow lucky limeade organza ribbon? That is just a little sneak peak of some Sale-A-Bration offerings you will be able to get free starting January 24, 2012.

OOH! SO much going on on this card and it is SOOOO lovely! Enjoy it! Just a little more of a tease - striped paper? yep Sale-A-Bration!

Bordering on Romance

2012-01-16T01:49:00-08:00

As you read this I am traveling to San Antonio, TX for the Stampin' Up! Leadership Conference. I can' t wait to see my Stampin' Up! Friends I only get to see at these events and to get inspired. Stampin' UP! always inspires and delights us with ideas and fun times.

Here are some cards using the Bordering on Romance Stamp set from the Occasions Mini.

Lots of new product on this great card! I used the new Framelits for the Big Shot to make the Blushing Bride and Riding Hood red frames. I was thrilled to see how well the Designer Label Embossing folder fit so perfectly into the smaller one. There are 6 framelits in graduated sizes! The pleated Blushing Bride ribbon is just too yummy. The raised scallop border is from the Adorning Accents Embossing Folders that is sized to match the images in the Bordering on Romance stamp set. The little Blushing Bride button is also available in the Occasions Mii!

On this card I used the Frame lit to cut out an opening and then an edge of the framelit to cut the edge on the bottom. I embossed the line at the top with Adorning Accents embossing folder . The Designer Series Paper in both of these cards is Twitterpated.

Love love love the vintage rich look of this product suite. Be sure to check it out in the Occasions Mini. You can view it online but if you would like your own hard copy to pour over anywhere email me (wadainker@aol.com) your address and I will be happy to mail one to you along with the Sale-A-Bratioin brochure for the great promotion that starts on January 24.

Blossom Punch

2012-01-13T13:48:11-08:00

The new Occasions Mini has so many exciting products! The Blossom Punch is a great one for a quick cute card.

This quick card was made using this fabulous new punch and the coordinating stamp set Mixed Bunch. Here is a quick card made with just the stamp set.

These are made on the notecards and envelopes that are in the Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog. Each month I recognize Stampin' Up! Demonstrators in my downline who are the top 20 in personal sales and anyone who has recruited more than 2 new demonstrators in the month. I try to keep these cards simples - something they could use as a make & take at one of their events and using current or new product.

Leadership is coming!

2012-01-09T10:07:40-08:00

Yep, I can't wait! Next week is Stampin' Up!'s Annual Leadership Conference. This is a conference for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators with recruits underneath them. It is a great mid-year pick me up to get inspired and rejuvenated! I also get to see Stampin' Up! friends that I only get to see twice a year! Cherie M. is one of them. We talk alot and share card ideas. In fact she participates in our Occasions Mini Swap. Here are couple of her samples.

I do believe this is the favorite of her samples! I love the Adorning Accents Edgelits. That edge is just so rich! LOVE IT! The paper is from the Attic Boutique Product sweet. The paper is so vintage and yummy. The stamped image is from P.S. I love you and I love how she hid it under the open heart! What a lovely card.

Here is another one of her cards. Again she used the paper from Attic Boutique. I didn't think I liked the P.S. I love you stamp set but I do love the little simplicity that Cherie used it on her cards. Here are the rest of her samples.

The scallopy edge is the other edgelit from the Adorning Accents edgelits for your big shot.

Ooh La La! This elegant card uses the same P.S. I love you stamp set but with the Twitterpated Designer Series Paper. The little postage stamp tag is just adorable. Love the embossed stripes in the background.

Don't wait to plan your Valentines!
