Swapping at an OnStage event is a lot of fun – it allows me to meet my fellow demonstrators from around the country and share ideas. So today I’ll be sharing some more of the wonderful swaps I received in Charlotte.
Today’s cards all use the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper (146926). This pack of papers is one of my favorites since not only is it heavier it has a beautiful pearl finish too.
These first two cards have been teamed up with the Layering Ovals Framelit Dies (141706).
Done in Tranquil Tide this card uses the Detailed with Love stamp set 146603/146606)and beautiful 3/8″ Mini Ruffled Ribbon (146948). And can you see the texture in the background created with the Ruffled Embossing Folder (143699)?
And this next card uses the Wood Words stamp set (143925/143928) for it’s sentiment.
And how about this card using the Amazing Life stamp set (148750) that is part of the Last Chance List?
And finally this card uses the Crafting Forever set (143955/143958) as it’s sentiment for this calendar card.
And would you like to see a couple of the 3d items I received in swaps at OnStage Charlotte?
This first one is a couple of small treat items –
The little Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper (146902) pouch was made with the Envelope Punch Board and holds a little pack of tic tacs.
And a fun diaper fold using the Cute Crew Punch Box (148535) it’s part of the Last Chance list.
If you have any questions about the Last Chance List please let me know. You can see all the items in my Online Store.

Here are a couple of more cards using the Needle & Thread Suite of products. I really like the way this first card uses the Old Olive Linen Thread and Vellum card stock that has been run through the Big Shot using the stitched die image to create lots of texture.
And this card from an OnStage swap highlights the Needlepoint Nook Designer Series Paper (148807) while using the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set (148807) and our Pretty Label (143715) and 1 3/8″ Scallop Circle Punch (146139).
And here is a fun 3d swap using the Needle & Thread Bundle and the Make a Difference (146676) and Thoughtful Banners stamp sets (Retiring 141614).
When you open it you can find a little sewing kit – how cute is that?
So what do you think? You can see all of these products in my Online Store – just check out the last chance list for the Needle & Thread Suite of products simply by clicking on the image below.

Today’s cards were made with the Needle & Thread Bundle. This bundle includes some wonderful images and are part of our Distinktive stamps. So you get an image with depth and texture all in a stamp!
Who of us didn’t grow up learning the basic of sewing? I still remember sitting down and choosing my sampler design with my mom and pain staking learning how to get the thread where I wanted it verses the needle in my finger. I soon loved to watch those images filled in slowly and the feeling of achievement when I was done. Did you have a similar experience? Why not leave me a comment and tell me how you learned to sew below?
Any how, on to some wonderful cards – here are some swaps I received using the Needle & Thread Bundle.
The suite comes with a beautiful Needlepoint Nook Designer Series Paper (148807) and other accessories that tie things up beautifully. And did you know that this suite is part of the Last Chance List? So you can get it while supplies last. Click HERE to see the suite options in my Online Store.

It’s been a rough night here in North Georgia as the storms associated with this latest front moves through, and I’m a bit sleep deprived from the storms. I hope that as you read this you are safe this Easter weekend where ever you are.
Today’s post is going to share the project that I made for my team members as part of their OnStage gifts last weekend.
I’ve had several ask me how they were made – so while I’m using a demonstrator supply item to create these, I’ll be giving you an option so you can make some too. Here is a close up.
These Note Pad & Pen Holders have a 4×6 pad of paper in them that I picked up at my local dollar store. Perfect for jotting tons of notes – I’m always creating a list so I knew these would be great for my Team members too.
Here is a my video tutorial for you
Crafting Forever Note Pad & Pen Holder Video Tutorial
If you love the floral image I used – you can make some too by using our Floral Grid Paper (150819). This is a special package of our grid paper and it is being offered while supplies last. You can see it in my video and while it isn’t exactly the same – it will work. Simply create a folder using a piece of card stock or even the tag board from your Designer Series Paper pack and cut the grid paper as desired to fit. Yep, it’s that easy! It’s not just grid paper LOL! I’ve included this option in the PDF also.

I received my OnStage Product Purchase Premiere goodies yesterday afternoon and didn’t get the video uploaded until late, so today I’m sharing it since I wanted to give you a sneak peek of what is coming! You are going to fall in love with the NEW In Colors – I know I have!
Friday night I was able to attend CenterStage. The excitement was high as we entered that evening.
I love this event since it is a much smaller group of us – it’s a great chance to share and make new friends over a lovely meal.
The excitement is always high since it is our first time together AND our first peek at the 2019 Annual Catalog.
And of course Stampin’ Up! makes it extra special with an CenterStage gift – check out this beautiful wrist purse and punch.
Saturday morning when we entered the room – the tables were set up and decorated
I always enjoy seeing how they “hide” our Make n Takes in the center piece of the table – they are hiding in the Stampin’ Up! box this time, perfect coordination for our Follow Your Art Suite. lol!
Want to see some more pics of OnStage – Charlotte? Here are some more of our time together.
Everyone was excited to get their catalogs first thing! (That’s our new stamping friend on the far right, Orliea who joined us at our table.)
And of course, what would be a Stampin’ Up! event without stamping together?
Prize Patrol is always great fun – and Stampin’ Up! is always so generous!
I can’t believe everything I received at OnStage, I couldn’t fit it all in my bag!
I was thrilled to be able to share my walk across the stage for reaching my $100,000 sales goal this February with my team there. And touched by my team who was waiting for me right below the stage snapping pictures and cheering me on. How special they made me feel!
I’m so lucky to be able to share what I love with you. I truly appreciate you and am so blessed to have met such wonderful friends over these past 10 years. I can’t imagine what my life would have been like if I hadn’t started down this road all those years ago. I couldn’t do this without you, my wonderful customers and team members!
What can I say? Can you tell? I LOVE the creative time, getting to meet new stamping friends, and of course time with my team time too! I can’t wait until November when we’ll be doing doing this again in Atlanta!!!

Today’s project is one that I made for part of my Team gift that I gave everyone attending OnStage in Charlotte this past weekend. It’s a twist on the floating frame cards you’ve been seeing pop up – but this really is a frame lol. I thought it would be great to have a special frame of our stamping friends and a reminder of the wonderful time we had last weekend.
I really like the way the frame turned, out so I thought I’d share a video tutorial with you on how I made them. They are really easy to do. It’s a few days late since the first time I filmed it the file was corrupted so I had to do it again, not sure exactly why, but then that is the way with technology, right?
I’ve used the Stampin’ Blends to color the butterflies and I chose the shades of blue since our Team name is The Blue Mountain Stampers. Get it?
I placed those that I could on their pillows once we arrived in Charlotte.
The bags were stamped using the retiring Bloom by Bloom stamp set (148820) and Happiness Blooms Designer Series Paper (148795) was used for the tags.
I also used the Large Letter Framelits (141712) that are also on the retirement list for the tags – boy, do I hate to see these go, I use them all the time! Get yours before the supply is gone.
And here is a close up of the back.
Want to see how I made these Butterfly Gala floating frames?
Here is a video for you and of course a PDF tutorial too. I’ve also included a complete supply list below for you so you can make some too. So keep scrolling since it is at the very bottom!
Retirement List: Please note that I’ve updated the PDF with items that are carrying over noted. They are both highlighted and * is behind their names. These items are being reconfigure and will only be offered in our new Cling offering in the 2019 Annual Catalog. Please let me know if you have any questions I know that the lists can be a bit confusing. The easiest way to see everything is in my Online Store HERE.
Stop back by tomorrow when I’m hoping to post some of the fun of OnStage with you – today I’m heading to the vet. Our four legged family member, Chewie decided to have a run in with the fence and lost on Friday night while I was gone to OnStage.
Poor thing. She has needed a lot of extra attention since I’ve been home and is not liking the confinement needed so she can heal.

The Annual Catalog is right
around the corner and I won’t be able to mail you one if you have chosen no
contact.
I’m going to keep this short and sweet because I know you want to see the
lists! Many products are only available while supplies last, so be sure to get
your orders in early! (And remember that some items having amazing discounts!)
Sooo….Here are the Retirement Lists that have just
been announced by Stampin’ Up!
They are broken down by catalog for your convenience:
**Please Note: Some items such as stamp sets are on the list due to reconfiguration to our NEW Cling style – These sets are now highlighted and have a * at the end of the name so that you can easily see which ones they are (updated 4/16 8 :47 am)
Here is a document showing which sets will be carried over into the 2019 Annual Catalog in our new Cling style. So while they show up on the retirement list it is because they will have new items numbers due to the change in style.
Please remember that Accessories are While Supplies
Last (this includes: Ink, Reinkers, Card Stock, Designer Series
Papers, Ribbon, Dies, etc.).
Make sure you have got your favorite 2017-2019 In Colors that are being affected by the Retirement List in the 2018 Annual Catalog – Your favorite colors are sure to go fast!
Stamps are guaranteed until Monday, May 24th and then will be while supplies last until the Last Chance List ends on June 3rd.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
Fine Print:
Depending on inventory levels, discounts on select products may be introduced on or after May 9.
These discounts will not be pre-announced.
If you buy a product at retail price and then it is later discounted, Stampin’ Up! will not refund the difference.
If there is a product you want, we recommend buying it right away and not waiting to see if it’s discounted later or you risk it being sold out.
If you start an Online order before a discount is announced, the order will not include the discounted pricing. If you want to order a product that has been discounted, you will need to start the order after the discounts are announced.
