Garden In Bloom
Garden in Bloom is a fun whimsical stamp set that give you a lot of options since it is a two-step set that contains 20 photopolymer stamps.
You can use just the outline images like I did here on this card we made at the Bingo event.
or use the sold images to create a softer look – or why not use both to create different look? Versatile is the word when looking at this set. And aren’t the sentiments lovely?
New to Photopolymer stamps? Or maybe want to refresh your memory? Here are some great tips for using our Photopolymer stamps.
Photopolymer Stamp Questions & Answers
Q. How do I clean the photopolymer stamps?
A. Use your Stampin’ Scrub and Stampin’ Mist just as you would with any stamps. If they ever get dusty or lose their stickiness, you can wash them in mild soap and water. If you use them with Stazon, you can also use Stazon cleaner on them. But, use it sparingly and make sure you do not leave traces of the cleaner on the stamps after cleaning.
Q. How do I store the photopolymer stamps?
A. They come in a cello bag, between two sheets of acetate. One of the sheets is conveniently printed with the stamp images for storage. Our clear-mount cases work nicely to store them in if you prefer. Store them indoors—don’t leave them sitting out in direct sunlight.
Q. What kinds of ink can I use with photopolymer stamps?
A. Our classic ink in the firm foam pads is the absolute best choice. Versamark and Stazon are also ok. Make sure you clean your stamps promptly after use to avoid staining or damage.
Q. Will the photopolymer stamps stain?
A. They are more prone to staining. Basic Gray and red inks seem to be the worst. Try to clean your
stamps immediately after use to avoid staining.
Q. Are the photopolymer stamps made in the US?
A. Yes. The photopolymer material is shipped from the UK and the manufacturing of the stamps themselves takes place in the USA.

Watercolor Wings & more BINGO
Bingo fun – continued with some projects. Here is the first of the 3 projects we made. This first card was made with the NEW Watercolor Wings stamp set (139424). It’s a fun 3 step stamping set so it lends itself to all kinds of color options.
I love the new Brick Wall embossing Folder – great for all kinds of cards including masculine ones! And of course, I’m sure you can tell I’m loving the Designer Series Paper Stacks! This card uses the 2015-2017 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack (138432) the little flowers are fun.
As an added touch I wanted a pop of white trim – so I reached for my Rotary Addition to my Stampin’ Trimmer and the Small Scallop Cutting Blade. These blades are a lot of fun and easy to use. Simply pop the blade in and roll!
A quick bit of instructions and we were off to stamping stations.
Here are some pictures of the three project stations and everyone stamping – what fun it was to see how they made them their own.
We finished up by playing 3 more games after the projects.
Bundles contained a stamp set, embossing folder, ribbon and Designer Series Paper – whoo hoo! Here is a photo of the first two prizes –
and the happy winners!
Our grand prize was a gift certificate!
Everyone had their two Bingo cards they received in their bag of course – but they also got the chance to purchase more cards for addition chances and the funds went toward the gift certificate!!!
Sherri was thrilled when she won after rooting everyone one on all afternoon –
after all who doesn’t like a Stampin’ Up! spending spree!

Baker’s Box BINGO Treat
Want to see the little gift everyone received at the Bingo event on Sunday? I won’t make you wait – here it is!
This cute little box was created using out NEW Baker’s Box Thinlits Die (138279) and it’s coordinating stamp set, All Boxed Up (138944/139340). Quick and easy and of course filled with what else? Chocolate of course!
Here is a photo of the group of Baker’s Boxes I made for the event. I can’t get enough of these delicate butterflies!
I used the 2015-2016 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack (138432) to create them in all the fun new In Colors and since we have a great selection of Sequin Trim now you can pick the trim color of your choice! I had a lot of fun with these little boxes. (You can see the entire supply list below.)
Just a quick tip when using this Thinlits die with Designer Series Paper, you’ll want to play with your sandwich since it cuts and scores at the same time. Designer Series Paper is thinner than our card stock. I found using my regular tabbed platform worked better since I could adjust the thickness better than with my Magnetic Platform.
After showing everyone what prizes they were playing for
everyone settled in and we started with the first 3 games of Bingo –
Everyone was excited for the winners!
Stop on by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing some more pictures and one of the projects everyone made.
Supplies:
Stamp Set: All Boxed Up (138944/139340)
Paper: 2015 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack (138432), Bermuda Bay (131197), and Whisper White card stock (100730)
Accessories: Baker’s Box Thinlits Die (138279), Bold Butterfly Framelits (138135), Clothespins (133764), Brights (131259) and 2015 In Color Stampin’ Write Markers (138333), Bermuda Bay Sequin Trim (137910)

BINGO fun!!!
This past Sunday I held my first BINGO event – for the Catalog Launch. It was a lot of fun and everyone enjoyed the afternoon. We played 6 games of BINGO and made 3 cards using products from the 2015-2016 Annual Catalog. Want to see what it was all about?
Well, here are some of photos of the classroom set up and ready to go.
Everyone received a little gift and a Make ‘n Take packet that included their BINGO cards, a $5 coupon along with their supplies to use for their projects.
I had some displays and samples of course
And my Corner Store with kits along with the pre-made cards, post it note pads and garden stakes for Kaitlin’s DCI fundraiser. (She is currently in Oklahoma preparing for tonight’s performance.)
And what event would be complete without some goodies to keep us stamping!
I had fun making our water bottles a bit more festive too. I used the NEW 2015 In Colors Designer Series Paper Stack (138432) and the All About Sugar stamp set (138684). Quick and easy to add this little touch and the refrigerator didn’t cause any problems with the added labels I simply adhered them to the top of the wrapper already on the bottles and voila!.
And of course the BINGO prize table had to have a special touch – so I created this banner for it.
I love our new Build a Banner kit (138379) the shapes are fun and the kit is filled with a ton of stencils to choose from, so the options are endless. And of course, you know how I feel about our Stampin’ Spritzers! I have listed the supplies I used for this project below for you. And you can see my Getting Started with Stampin’ Spritzers Tutorial HERE.
Want to see some more photos?
It got quiet at times as everyone was concentrating, 
but I loved the fellowship and fun as everyone was excited for each other as they called out Bingo!
Everyone used buttons as their bingo pieces that were on the table in little Berry Baskets that I created with our die. And of course, our BINGO Master, my hubbie Larry joined in the fun too!
He’s looking forward to the next time we play. He was having a lot of fun with the cage of balls. LOL!
Stop on by tomorrow when I’ll share the little gift everyone got along with some more pictures.
Supplies:
Stamp Set: Watercolor Wings (139424)

Awesomely Artistic & New Class
Love dragonflies? I’ve been watching them in the evening checking out the pool in our yard. I just love this time of year to sit outside in the evenings and enjoy the activity of fireflies. They have always fascinated me.
Here is a lovely card that I received using the Awesomely Artistic stamp set (138694/139950) and just love the dragonfly image this set contains.
Great colors, right? Leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
