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!

Yesterday I had my Annual Holiday Luncheon with my Team and I couldn’t resist sharing this fun home décor item that I made using the Eden’s Garden Collection 160849. When I saw the flyer with the lovely wreath I knew I wanted to make one too. The Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper (159996) and Garden Gems(159277) are simply breath taking! So I stocked up so I can make tons of these and coordinating projects for gifts.
Here is my take on this lovely little gift, perfect for holiday gift giving.
I really like the 3D effect that this wreath has as I removed the glass from from frame and used tons of Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals between the layers.
Want to see how I made mine? Here is a Video Tutorial for you.

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?

I hope everyone is enjoying the lovely fall weather. We had a warmer than normal, but beautiful sunny week for fall break. How about you? Since I didn’t share with you last week, I thought I would share some of the projects from my October Team Meeting. During our monthly team meeting we meet and stamp together along with swapping a project too. I’ll start with this card made with the Artic Bears stamp set (156428) from the Mini Catalog on page 39.
This card is a CASE (copy and share everything) from the catalog, CASEing is a great way to create when you need something quickly or are just getting started. And this next project is a fun 3D made with the Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper (155464) and Artistically Inked stamp set (154542).
The sentiment has been heat embossed with Gold Embossing Powder (155555) and the Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack (155465) adds some texture and interest. Do you see the little 2021-2023 In Color Jewels (155571)? These jewels are so much fun and add a bit of shimmer and shin to any project. And how about this next card using the Pretty Pumpkins Bundle (156478) and Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper (156494)?
Isn’t it just great for sending during the fall holidays? And how about a fun Triangle Front Flap card using the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper (155718).
Some texture has been added not only with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (154317), but also with the Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon (151326) and Opal Rounds (154289).
We have tons of fun together and I love to see what everyone is crafting at home. How about you? Do you enjoy sharing and stamping with others?

How about some swaps, team time and a fun treat tutorial? Today I thought I’d share what we’ve been doing as a my group recently. I’ve got a great team and we have a lot of fun together when we gather each month, so I thought I’d share some of the groups swaps first. I’ll start with some of the Sale-a-bration cards.
this first card uses the lovely Feels like Home stamp set (Sale-a-bration 156607) and has been colored with our Watercolor Pencils (141709 & 149014) assortments for a softer look. And this next card was created using the Delicate Dahlia stamp set (Sale-a-bration 156601) and Merry Merlot for a bold look.
If you don’t recognize the polka dots it’s from the Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper pack (Sale-a-bration 156630) which as you can see is quite versatile. A bit of fussy cutting and some Wink of Stella finish off this lovely card. And how about this big bold sunflower?
This card uses the Celebrate Sunflowers (152517) and the coordinating Sunflower Dies (152704) and it’s also a fun buckle card, the sentiment tucks into a punched slot behind the sunflower.
Not only do we do team meetings each month, but we also had a team retreat in August, so I thought I’d share a couple of the swaps from that today. This first project uses the Friends are Like Seashells Bundle (159516) and Seashells 3D Embossing Folder (154309).
And how about some pansy fun using the Pansy Petals Suite (155810)? A simple cutting technique creates this criss-cross pattern for the card front.
We also made a fun little box that was filled with some treats.
I really love this Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper (155807) and the fact you can cut tons of flowers out with the bundle’s dies and isn’t the little box adorable? Want to see more team fun? This month was our bi-annual Peak Princess event. What is that? It’s a special day filled with pampering that my team can earn. This time we made 3 special projects, won prizes and enjoyed a nice Hawaiian inspired luncheon together.
The pulled pork and Mango Salsa we had were a hit so I thought I’d share the recipes with you. The pulled pork is soooo easy with just 3 ingredients and you make in the crock pot too! And you may find the Mango Salsa addictive – eat it with chips, or you can add it on top of fish or shrimp taco too.
Whew – that’s a lot I know but I hope you enjoyed a bit of a peek into what it’s like to be a Blue Mountain Stamper.
