More #OnStage Swapping Fun!

Yesterday, I shared some of the cards I received during the swapping at OnStage and I’ve got more to share with you today. These stamping events are always fun and there is a lot more to them than swapping. We learn, see new products, share and stamp together too. So it’s always a good time. You’ll want to keep reading because today I’ll share more than just my swaps with you, but I’ll be starting there with a Christmas Barn Bundle card.

Done in neutral tones this card is simple and elegant with a classic country feel. Love embossing folders? How about this card that uses the Whimsical Woodland 3D Embossing Folder to create a quick and simple card that packs a wow.

And this next card Night of Navy and the Christmas Scottie sentiment for this charming card.

I just love the way our products work together, don’t you? Here is a bright and cheerful card using the Christmas Scottie set too but this time done in Parakeet Party. After all it’s not just a holiday set.

The Christmas Scottie makes great 3d projects too – check out these 2 treat holders.

Making treats is always soo fun. And speaking of dogs, how about a little elephant? This next card uses the Elephant Parade stamp set and coordinating dies to create a little holiday card.

And for a traditional feel Here are a couple of cards that use two of our wonderful sentiment sets Christmas to Remember and Brightest Glow. So easy to team them up with your favorite papers like these cards do!

Non traditional colors have been used on the last couple of cards I’ll be sharing with you today. This first one uses our Decorated with Happiness Bundle and teams up our Sweet Sorbet with Soft Succulent.

And the beautiful Framed Florets Bundle that is currently available with it’s limited time products as a sneak peek from the 2023 Mini.

This is just a few of the lovely projects I received as I swapped last Saturday.

I’ve never been to Jacksonville and really enjoyed my time there. I was thankfully the hurricane didn’t cause more issues than it did for everyone. It was a rainy drive in from Clarkesville as Nicole moved her way north into Georgia, but the sun was out when I arrived in Jacksonville and the river and all it’s bridges were quite lovely.

In addition to swapping I was able to attend Center Stage and receive new 2023 Mini & Sale-a-bration catalogs, NEW products, and a special CenterStage gift.

The beautiful umbrella opened to have a fun pop of color on the inside. It will be fun looking up and seeing all these wonderful colors on a rainy day.

Of course, during OnStage there are always prize patrols during the event and lovely decorated tables to enjoy for the day. You’re going to love our NEW Specialty Papers!

We also got to stamp a bit and were able to use the new Kit that is now available called, The Timeless Greetings Kit (161062). I really enjoyed all the texture and the look of these cards and since it contains everything you need to craft it makes a wonderful gift too!

As always Stampin’ Up! spoils us with our swag bag and prize patrol and fun demonstrations! I can’t wait for our next gathering.

I’m working on my 2023 January – June Mini & Sale-a-bration Catalog mailing list now and will finalize it November 25th. If you have placed an order with me during the last 3 months, you’ll automatically get a copy.  And of course, if you place an order with me by November 25th you’ll also be included and receive a copy by mail. (Just a note: if you place your orders in my Online Store please make sure your mailing address is up to date so your copy can be delivered to your correct address.)

Well that’s it for today. Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing my little table gift that I made for those sitting with me a cute little treat box made with the Christmas Scottie Bundle.

#OnStage & Swapping fun!

Wow, I just got back from another fun Stampin’ Up! event in Jacksonville and as usual it was a blast! It’s definitely wonderful to gather again after so long and the energy was high, even with having to drive through the tropical rains of the hurricane as I went south. lol You never know what weather will bring here in the south.

Anyhow, I thought I’d start by sharing some of the fun swaps that I received over the next couple of days from my fellow stampers. The selection covered a wide range and it’s always sooo much fun to see what everyone creates. I’m going to start with the 3d items, as they are what drew me to stamping in the first place.

This first one is so clever for the fall and thanksgiving

And speaking of fall here is a lovely card made with the Hello Harvest Bundle.

And this next one uses the Very Best Occasions and our sweet little Bells embellishments (159980)

along with a card using the same set.

And these next 2 cards use the Santa’s Delivery Bundle

The belly band on this card when removed reveals a fun fold card.

And how about some cards made with the Sweet Candy Cane Bundle?

And my final card today uses the Christmas Banners Bundle

Wow, right? That’s it for today, why not leave me a comment and let me know your favorite? Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing more from OnStage with you!

Fun with my Team & More

Have you ever thought about crafting with a group of friends who love stamping as much as you do? I get to do this every month with my Team, the Blue Mountain Stampers. We gather, share, and stamp together. The friends I’ve met through stamping is one of the best things about being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator.

My Team gathered this week to stamp together and share. So today I thought I’d share some of the project they brought as swaps. I always love to see what everyone is stamping and the different styles of stamping to. This months theme was Christmas Cards.

This first card was stamped with the Evergreen Elegance Stamp set (153313) and it’s coordinating Evergreen Border Punch (153603).

It uses not only the lovely Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper (156292) but also the In Color Shimmer Vellum (155616). A bit of texture was added with the Bark 3D Embossing Folder (155431). And for a final bit of shine our Champagne Rhinestone Jewels (151193). And this next card uses the Christmas Season Bundle (156801).

A bit of our Red Velvet (153490) has been cut with the Seasonal Label Dies (156299) as a back drop on the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper background (155718), and our Gilded Gems (152478) add not only shine but texture too.

This lovely basket of poinsettias is from our Season’s Blessings Bundle (155485). The Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper (155718) adds some interest along with he Star Crossed Embossing Folder (156567). You’ll want to check out the Season’s Blessing Stamp set it’s not just for Christmas but has lots of fun images for year round crafting. This next card uses the Stars are Shinning stamp set (156345) and Punch (156380).

Done in Sahara Sand and Basic White it’s a great way to create. And finally this wonderful card for the avid crafter using the Merriest Moments Bundle (156353).

This bundle has not only the dies but a Embossing folder also, giving the die cut image wonderful texture. A simple technique using the Stampin’ Write Markers were used to create the two color sentiment on the front.

And of course everyone loves a quick and simple 3D gift item for the holidays, right?

This little treat was created using our Gingerbread & Peppermint Designer Series Paper (156313) and a bit of our Real Red Ruffled Ribbon (156323).

We have lots of fun sharing and grow together. Did you know that if you ever have thought about joining in the fun and being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator now is a great time?
