February Stamp Camp Cards

On February 2 or 3 I'm holding my next Stamp Camp for my ladies. The theme is Valentines so everything has REAL RED in it. Here's what we will be making:

 
This card is a direct CASE of Krista Fenton's lovely design. Easy and simple! Pennant Parade and Pennant punch with Whisper White, Real Red and Pretty in Pink. White baker's twine was ink dyed with the Real Red.  Retired stamp set for sentiment.

 
This card was inspired by Nancy Hendel's design from her blog called Crazy Stampin' Women, but I changed it up a bit with the Spring Catalog DSP called More Amore, red glimmer scallop punch and more. Isn't it cute?

 
This paper heart shaker card was inspired by Lisa Flemming from her website called Peanuts & Peppers Papercrafting. I had a stash of heart treat cups to use up, so I cut out the heart with a little heart framelit and just had to trim it a very little bit so the plastic heart would slide in. Then I filled it with an assortment of small punched hearts.  I used the More Amore DSP from the Spring Catalog. The Pool Party ribbon is from a set you can get in the Sale-a-Bration flyer. Color scheme is Very Vanilla, Real Red, and Pool Party.

 
This card was a direct CASE from Sue Kment of Sue's Stamping Stuff blog. All I changed up was to tilt the Crumb Cake envelope, add the one red glimmer heart, and (it's hard to see) but I hand embossed an edge design with the new Borders Scoring Plate. It was really easy to use.
 
I hope these designs inspire you to create something wonderful for your love!

As a guy, it’s not always easy to express yourself. You know you want to say it, but you just don’t know how. That’s why we’ve created the Dude, You’re Welcome! Kit. Quickly build a card that says just what you want it to say, whether it’s “#%&@!” because you messed up (when does that happen?), for a Special Occasion (you know the occasion), “I _____ You” (love, adore, miss, see?), or a simple “Thank You.”

We’ve got your back. Dude, you’re welcome.

Kit includes:

* Four wood-mount stamps (double-mounted) with the perfect sentiment for every occasion
* Twelve 4" x 6" postcards in four different (manly) colors
* Twelve gray envelopes
* A Basic Gray Classic Stampin’ Pad
* An instructional guide (for the most novice stamper!)

4) A new online kit program called Paper Pumpkin starts in March, but sign up now and you'll get a free acrylic block with your first order.  Go to www.paperpumpkin.com

January 2013 Stamp Camp Designs to Share

I've been a little behind since returning home from our Christmas holiday, but the ladies of my regular monthly Stamp Camps will have these cards to enjoy for January.



This card uses the new Hearts a Flutter bundle (Stamps and Framelits) in the Spring Catalog. Wood #131098 $42.95 or Clear #131097 $36.95. I love the chalkboard look. Next time instead of using the White Craft ink, I think I would do white heat embossing powder for a crisper look. (Cased this design but no name to give credit too, sorry.)
                                 Hearts a Flutter Bundle Clear


This baby bib card is sooo cute! It's very simple, but I discovered that even though Stampin' Up has come out with new Oval Collection Framelits, # 129381 for $26.95 in the Spring Catalog, it didn't have the size I needed for the scalloped edged oval. So, here's what I did.. I cut a larger oval with the framelit on the Big Shot, then I used the scallop edge border punch and carefully went around the oval about 3 scallops at a time until I went completely around and Voila! it worked, and was just the size I needed. The new Occasions Paper-Piercing Pack #129387 for $7.95 adds just the right detail. Then the crowning touch is the new stamp set "Ciao, Baby!" (Wood set #129645 for $17.95 or Clear set #129648 for $13.95) and the new 7/8" Scallop Punch #129404 for $12.95.  (This design was CASed but I don't have a designer name to credit, sorry!)
                                     Ciao, Baby! Wood-Mount Stamp Set



I CASed this lovely design from Laura Lipe and I just love it. The colors I used were Certainly Celery, Baja Breeze and Crumb Cake with the French Foliage Stamp Set (Wood # 120845 for $19.95 or Clear # 121166 for $14.95.) You can use any sentiment of your choosing for whatever occasion you like.
                                    French Foliage Stamp Set - by Stampin' Up!



My last design was also CASed but again I can't give the designer credit. Wish I could! Using a crumb cake base with the apothocary framelit in white with pierced edge, the card is accented with Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper hearts punched out.  The sentiment is from the set Word Play (Wood #120308 for $41.95 or Clear #120651 for $28.95) stamped in Black Staz-on ink. The Island Indigo ribbon will be available on Jan. 22 in the Sale-a-Bration brochure as part of a ribbon and button set.

                             Word Play - Clear-Mount Stamp Set - by Stampin' Up!

Spring Catalog Starts Today!


Stampin' Up! has outdone themselves in this catalog. I want it all and you will too! If you are one of my regular customers you have probably received your own copy by now and are drooling for all the cute products. SU has come out with several bundles of matching stamp sets and their framelits. Oulala! If you don't have a local demonstrator (I'd love to be yours!) go to Spring Catalog to see it online. If there are items you can't live without, you are always welcome to order at my online store and your order will be shipped directly to you.

Don't forget Sale-a-bration comes later this month starting January 22 until March 22, and that brochure has some wonderful items that go together with items in the Spring Catalog. (I'll post that link when it becomes available.) All you have to do for Sale-a-bration is place a $50 order during that time window and you'll get to choose one item from the Sale-a-bration brochure. (Every multiple of $50 in orders means another freebie for you!)

Thanks for stopping by and don't hesistate to contact me if you need anything Stampin' Up!

Last Day for the Holiday Catalog

Well, here we are at January 2nd and that wonderful Holiday Catalog ends today. There were so many great products along with project ideas. I think I got almost everything! But I got mine at a discount and you can too, if you join my team in 2013. If you still need to order something stop by my online store before 10 pm Pacific time tonight. Also at my SU website you can join my team easily with the quick online form.  2013 is a big year for Stampin' Up! as they celebrate their 25th Anniversary, so I'm sure they are going to treat their customers and demonstrators extra special! Think about it!
