Birthday Surprise

Posted on June 13, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

Here is a quick and easy card that I made with the fun new stamp set Birthday Surprise (134117/134120) found in the NEW 2014-2015 Annual Catalog on page 52. My challenge to myself when making this card was to use just three colors that were more masculine.

So I chose Sahara Sand, Island Indigo, and the new 2014 In Color Tangelo Twist. Here is what I came up with.

The images in this set are bold and have a sketched feel to them and I wanted my texture to feel that way too so I took my Tangelo Twist Classic Ink Pad and just tapped my card stock to add some color and texture.

So what do you think?

Blue Mountain Stampers’ Retreat

Posted on June 12, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

This past weekend I held my second annual Blue Mountain Stampers’ Retreat for my Team. This is a fun and laid back event that allows us to get together and have fun and time together as a team.

Here is my classroom set up as we unloaded the cars. I forgot to take one before everyone started arriving, as usual. LOL

We stamped and scrapped until the wee hours in the morning. It’s like a big slumber party! I love the sharing of ideas and projects during these retreats. My goal – Make ‘n Takes for my Luau Catalog Launch Party on June 21st and designing my convention swaps for July.

Here is a picture of some of us Saturday afternoon – even Larry came down for a few minutes to hang out and see what we were up to!

Sound like fun? If you’ve ever thought about becoming a demonstrator I’d love to speak with you about joining my team. There is a great promotion for joining going on right now too.

Something for Baby Treat Sack

Posted on June 5, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

Are you ready for my first video tutorial using the NEW 2014-2015 Annual Catalog items? Well it’s here and in it I’ll be sharing with you the cute little treat sack that they showed us how to make during the Catalog Premiere along with the set I won during prize patrol. They are quick and easy to make.

This little project uses one of our NEW Bundles from the Catalog – Something for Baby (page 74) and the coordinating Baby’s First Framelits (136790/136791). I love the bundles we offer, since not only do you save 15%, but it makes cutting things out a snap for this project!

And this little treat sack is created using just one piece of 4 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ Designer Series Paper from the Moonlight Designer Series Paper Stack (133701). How great is that just pull one from the stack? No waste and tons of patterns to choose from since we have two new stacks to choose from in the new catalog!

Want to see how I did it? Well here is my Something for Baby Treat Sack Video Tutorial

While I’ve made this little treat sack with a baby theme in mind – I think it is a great little item for all kinds of occasions.

What do you think? easy?

Thanks for taking the time to leave me comments. They are really encouraging to me.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Something for Baby (134027/134030)

Inks: Hello Honey (133643)

Paper: Moonlight Designer Series Paper Stack (133701), Lost Lagoon (133679), and Whisper White Card Stock (100730)

Accessories: Baby’s First Framelits (133735), Lost Lagoon Stitched Satin Ribbon (133672), 1 3/8″ Circle Punch (119860), 1 3/4″ Scallop Circle Punch (119854), Stampin’ Trimmer (126889) and Rotary Addition (129407), Small Scallop Stampin’ Trimmer Rotary Cutting Blade (129410), Simply Scored Scoring Tool (122334), Paper-Piercing Tool (126189) and Stampin’ Pierce Mat (126199)

What’s Your Type? and More Organizational Items

Posted on June 4, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

I’ve got some more organization items for you, but first I wanted to share a card that I received recently from my friend Anna. Check out this great new stamp set from the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog, What’s Your Type?

What’s Your Type? (135747) is one of our cool new Photopolymer stamp sets that you’ll find in the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog. Photopolymer make things really easy to line up. It’s also a two-step stamp set. The What’s Your Type? is a little different however, because not only can you add addition dimension by stamping in two colors, but you can make really cool words and designs.

Anna used the same image and stamped it twice, lining up the images edges to create shapes for this card using the line pieces. Cool, right? (Check out page 161 in the catalog to see even more ideas.)

You can find the supply list for this card below. But I wanted to share some organizational items that I promised you yesterday first.

This first one is a Accessories Index for the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog. I know that Stampin’ Up! has provided us with two great indexes right in the catalog this year, but I got such wonderful feedback last year with the one I created, I thought I would update it any way to share. Choices, use one or both, either way choices are a good thing!

Accessories Index 2014-2015 Annual Catalog (PDF)

These next two items allow you to label your Framelits and store them in our Clear Mount Cases (119105). You just print them out and cut before adding them to our Clear Mount Cases. You can click HERE to see a video showing you how from an earlier post.

I find these organizational items helpful and I hope these three items are helpful to you too.

NEW 2014 – 2015 Annual Catalog Organizational Items

Posted on June 3, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

Its that time of year again! Now that the NEW 2014-2015 Annual Catalog has gone live and if you already have your copy you want to get organized, right?

Well I know I love to organize my crafting space periodically and a new catalog is a great time to do it. So today I’ll be sharing some of the items that I use to organize my crafting space.

First let me say, if you don’t have your 2014 – 2015 Annual Catalog yet, contact me by email at [email protected] to learn how to get yours! You’ll want your own copy of this catalog since it has some wonderful NEW products!

Ok – here it goes. The first item I love to have are labels. Lots of labels for everything. You see I’m a bit OCS as my friend JoAnn says – for those of you not familiar with the term that’s Obsessive, Compulsive, Stamper! LOL

These card stock labels will help you organize your paper drawers. They can be printed on Avery labels 5195, or the equivalent of that label.

2014 File Folder Labels (printable PDF)

These next labels I use to label my ink pads and drawers or anything else I want to use them for. They can be printed on Avery labels 5160 and punched out using our Word Window Punch.

They fit nicely on the end of your ink pads so that you’ve got a label on both sides. I also use them on my storage for daubers, sponges, and refills. (You can click HERE to see a video of how I store things.)

2014 Color Labels (printable PDF)

The last item I’m going to share with you today is a reference chart for the Designer Series Paper. Although our Designer Series Paper now has the colors listed in every package I like to have a quick reference chart on my desk that shows me all the colors at a glance.

Stop by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing some more of my organizational items with you.

NEW WEEKLY DEALS
