Team Time Fun

Posted on August 10, 2023 by Stamp with Jini

Each month I gather with my Team, the Blue Mountain Stampers and we share what we have been doing over the past weeks. Among other things we also swap cards and stamp together. It’s a lot of fun having a community of crafters that gather like this. Today’s cards are part of the swaps that were shared.

This first card uses the Marvelous Nature stamp set (161252) and our Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper (Online Exclusive 161139). The monochromatic card has been stamped using our

returning color Pretty Peacock and the wings have been partially cut so they have a bit of lift to them. The background has a bit of texture added to it by dry embossing with the Timeworn 3D Embossing Folder. A bit of shimmer was added with the Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels (158130). I love the way that these gems pick up the color your using them with.

This next is a book fold that has been created with the Zoo Crew Suite Collection (161319 )

The fun fold and little images have been cut from the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper (161304). And the sentiments have been stamped using the Zany Zoo stamp set (161305) using Memento Tuxedo Black and a little pop of color has been added with our Classic Matte Dots (158146).

How fun is that?

Fun with my Team & More

Posted on November 4, 2021 by Stamp with Jini

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?

Sweet as a Peach Treat Tag, Team fun & more

Posted on September 29, 2021 by Stamp with Jini

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.

And as a little gift everyone received a charm for their lanyards that was placed in this cute Treat Tag marking this occasion.

Freezin’ Fun, Team Shoe Box & More

Posted on December 10, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

Every year we gather as a team in December for our Annual Team Luncheon which includes a Shoe Box Swap. For me it is one of my favorite meetings as there is lots of food, laughter, sharing, and stamping. And while things were a bit different this year we still had a great time together bringing a dish to share and a stamping too.

The classroom was set up with social distancing in mind

And everyone received a little team gift from me too

which included some items to use in the Shoe Box Swap I designed (I’ll be sharing that project with you soon) along with some Team lanyard charms and title recognition.

Yes, these are Stampin’ Up! embellishments lol. They can be used for all kinds of things!

After the luncheon we had fun stamping a wide variety of projects. It’s part of what I love about gathering, everyone has a different style and shares what they love to do. All of the projects were great and I couldn’t choose a favorite.

This first card is a Center Step card stamped with one of my favorite sets from the Mini, the Freezin’ Friends Bundle (155176)

In addition to the Freezin’ Friend Bundle this card also uses the Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper (153512) and Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder (153576). We colored the cute little animals using our Stampin’ Blends and added some Frost White Shimmer Paint (147046) to the trees.

This next card uses the Back on Your Feet stamp set (149385) and is a fun fold.

Also colored with our Stampin’ Blends it uses each of the images to create 3 panels for a great get well card.

How cute is that? And the final card was another get well using the Healing Hugs stamp set (148223) and the Boho Indigo Designer Series Paper that is part of the Boho Indigo Product Medley (153132). Isn’t it great we have a refill (153925) for this kit so we can keep creating?

And now for some fun 3d Shoe Box Swaps. This first one is a cute little 2×2 box using our Friend Like You stamp set (149237).

I just love the way the Champagne Foil sheet (144748) picks up the color from the Cinnamon Cider Designer Series Paper (153070) and of course the Snowflake Splendor Ribbon (153548) adds a bit more sparkle to the project.

And how about a fun décor item? Here is an inexpensive photo frame we made using the Beautiful World stamp set (152994), Playful Alphabet Dies (152706) and our beautiful, World of Good Specialty Designer Series Paper (152491).

Now all I need to do is pop in a photo. And my final project I wanted to share with you is the fun little get well mini tissue holder. Perfect to brighten someone’s day who is feeling a bit under the weather.

The bright and cheerful project uses the Painted Poppies (151599) and Timeless Tulips (151164) stamp sets along with our Stampin’ Blends and the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper (152486).

And here are 2 more fun projects, a little paper box that’s been painted and decorated with our Forever Fern Bundle (154094)

and cute little nail file holder using the Little Treats Bundle (155204) and Toil Tidings Designer Series Paper (150432)

whew… Lots of stamping going on like I said and such great projects!

Team Fun at the OnStage@Home After Party

Posted on November 21, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

I love sharing with my team and coming home after a Stampin’ Up! event is no different. While this year we gathered virtually we still were able to gather for an After party and share the excitement of the NEW 2021 January – June Mini Catalog.

So I created these cute little flag holders using the Quite Curvy Bundle (156228) that is currently available. I just love these little sweet birds!

I used the colors from our OnStage@Home swag so everything coordinated

and was able to put the logo on the inside of these folders with the little flag sticky notes. We are going to need lots of sticky notes!!!

I also put together some little charms using some images from the stamp sets, the catalog, and logo. Each one was a bit different

but they all had one thing in common – a prize patrol number!

Things were all set up for a light lunch and an couple of hours with the team.

Of course, no team event is without stamping, so I had packets for everyone with their little team gifts waiting for them all their stamping spot.

We also had a table to share all the Product Purchase Premiere goodies – there is nothing like being able to touch and feel in person!

And of course I shared my copy of the real Mini & Sale-a-bration Catalogs that they could look at too.

We made 4 projects using new products from the 2021 January – June Mini Catalog and Sale-a-bration brochure.

And of course while we stamped prize patrol numbers were called and prizes were given out!

Lots of smiling faces

Want to see our projects?

Not only did stamp together, we got to use the new Blending Brushes found in the Mini Catalog and learn a fun new technique too.

I’ll be sharing these projects with you later so stop back by to see my tutorials and videos for these projects and more!

So what do you think? Sound like fun? Love the new items too? It’s just a peek of what’s inside the 2021 January – June Mini Catalog! And as I am sure you can guess, being the first to see this new catalog or any of our new catalogs is a very exciting AND a huge perk of being a Demonstrator – after all who wouldn’t want to be first? Right!

Add the fact that you’ll receive a discount on all these products and you can’t lose! If you feel this is a good time to join Stampin’ Up! and my team, the Blue Mountain Stampers, you too can be first too!

Team Time Fun

Posted on November 20, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

Each month we gather to stamp and share with each other and so today I thought I’d share some of the fun cards that my team members have created over the past 2 months. I can’t believe they got buried on my desk and I haven’t shared them with you before now.

These first 2 cards use the Country Home stamp set (147678) from the Annual Catalog that you can find on page 90. This first one uses the beautiful Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper (153527) to choose it’s color pallet.

And both these cards have been colored with our Stampin’ Blends which gives them that great bold rich, color.

And here is fun fold card using the Beautiful Autumn Stamp set () and lovely Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper (153520).

This card uses the fun impossible fold to create a card that pops up but mails flat.

And one using our Stitched Leaves Dies (153567) that has been teamed up with the colorful Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper (153527) again.

I really like the way these dies have the stitched edging that can be used on negative images like this and on the positive images too.

A gratitude journal made with the lovely Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper (152488) – done in 6×6 and filled with paper to fill. A page for each person to personalize or use it as a lovely book to use yourself.

This next project uses the Grace’s Garden stamp set (151513) and is a fun fold card.

That once again folds flat for mailing.

This next grouping of projects is for Christmas and I’ll continue with some more fun folds. First this easel card that uses the Sweetest Time Bundle (155169).

And last but not least Shirley shared some little wooden pumpkins she made using the technique we used during our Peak Princess Event. You can see more and the tutorial for that project about that HERE.

And how about some Christmas projects? This first card uses the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper (153487) and teams it up with the beautiful Forever Gold Laser Cut Specialty Paper (152493)

And for a here is a fun fold teepee card using our Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper (150444) with it’s beautiful images.

Champagne foil Sheets (144748) were cut out using the Forever Flourishing Dies (152714) and were used as a backdrop for the sentiment. This card also folds flat for mailing simply by undoing the well placed velcro dot.

And now for some fun 3d projects – A cute little box that holds a couple of nuggets using the Little Treats stamp set (153516).

And fun tags using a variety of the holiday stamp sets found in the Annual and Holiday catalog. Can you name them all?

There are 4 different stamp sets used for these tags. Don’t look if you are still guessing but here is the list. Detailed Doves (153406), Christmas Gleaming (150464), Merry Moose (150494), and Perfectly Plaid (149418). Hand made tags for your packages make them extra special and are a lot of fun to make!

whew… what did I tell you, lots of great projects! I’m truly blessed with such a great team to share and stamp with.

Beautiful Autumn Tiny Treat Box & More Team fun!

Posted on September 30, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

Yesterday I shared the Home Decor project that we made at the Peak Princess event this past weekend, today I thought I’d share the little treat item that I made.

They are filled with these fun fall Hershey’s Kisses that I found locally.

I just love the colors of the candy – yes, I do shop for candy that way. (My daughter thinks this is a pretty crazy way to shop for chocolate, but she is always on the hunt for me too!)

These treats were quick and easy to make for everyone. I have whipped up a quick video so you can make some to if you’d like.

Beautiful Autumn Tiny Treat Box Video Tutorial

And of course it’s always fun to have a PDF that contains a complete supply list for projects. So here it is.

Beautiful Autumn Tiny Treat Box Tutorial PDF

I also mentioned I’d share some more photos so here are a couple from the classroom.

This last picture is of the Sweet Potato Crostini I made for the event. The marshmallows spent a bit too much time under the broiler I’m afraid. Don’t you hate that? But they were still quite tasty.

They were a big hit with my guys so I thought you might enjoy the recipe – they are light, tasty and easy to do.

Sweet Potato Crostini

2 T. sugar

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

24 slices 1/4″ thick French bread baguette

2 to 3 T butter, melted

Topping:

2 c. mashed sweet potatoes

1/4 c. chopped pecans

3 T. packed brown sugar

2 T. butter, melted

1 1/4 c. miniature marshmallows, halved

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix sugar and cinnamon. Arrange bread sliced ona baking sheet. Brush with butter; sprinkle with sugar mixture. Bake until lightly browned, 5-7 minutes. Remove from oven; preheat broiler.

Mix sweet potatoes, pecans, brown sugar, and butter; spread over toasts. Top with marshmallows, pressing lightly. Broil 3-4 inches from heat until marshmallows are lightly toasted, 1-2 minutes.

So easy and tasty too!

Enjoy!

Stamp Set: Beautiful Autumn (*153450)

Team Fun & the Gilded Autumn Pumpkin Home Décor Project

Posted on September 29, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

This past weekend I gathered with my Team, The Blue Mountain Stampers for a special biannual event. This event allows us to gather and celebrate everyone’s accomplishments over the last 6 months. We have a special project, along with prizes, and appetizers. So today I thought I’d share our project that we made.

This project was a lot of fun to make and everyone’s turned out differently since they could decide on which patterns they wanted to use. Here is mine.

I really love the colors and patterns of the Gilded Autumn Suite of Products and so I couldn’t resist making a home décor item with them. I also really love the way the little swirls of copper ribbon finish off this project. They are so easy to make – I bet you are wondering how I made them too!

You’ll need a wooden skewer or dowel along with your heat tool and Heavy Spray Starch. Yep, that’s it! You’ll also need a bit of patience as you make them since it does require some dry time tho. I’m not sure how they would hold up outside, but since I’m planning on using this project inside my home I wasn’t worried about our heavy Georgia humidity of late.

Want to see how we made them? Here is a video for you.

I’ve also included a link for the pumpkins and PDF pattern on this Tutorial for you.

Want to make some of these too? Here is the information on the wooded pumpkins for you that I found on Amazon along with a PDF pattern for this pumpkin.

I really love these gatherings we have a lot of fun together and it’s a great time to share what’s been happening in our lives, and relax too. Here are a couple of pictures for you of some of the finished projects.

Painted Poppies & More

Posted on January 16, 2020 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s cards are swaps that my team members brought to share at our January Team Meeting. I always enjoy seeing what they are crafting since everyone’s styles can be so different and well, it’s just fun to share.

These first two cards use the Painted Poppies stamp set (151599) and products from the Peaceful Poppies Suite (153938). This first card shows off the mirror image effect you can create with the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper (151324). When you cut the sheet into 4″ sections and then cut them in half again, you match up the mirror images. How cool is that?

This next card uses a Crossover Gate Fold to show off the suite of products.

If you love these cards and the Suite of products you may want to check out my February Class schedule and my Peaceful Poppies Class. Not only will you get a class with me when you’ll learn how to use the products, you’ll also receive great products so you can go home and immediately start stamping! CLICK HERE to see my Calendar of Events and learn more about my classes, both live and Kits to Go.

Here is another fancy fold, this time a Double Door fold using the Stitched Be Mine Dies (148527) from the Annual Catalog.

It’s been teamed up with the lovely From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper (151189) and a sentiment from the Dandelion Wishes stamp set (151345).

And finally last, but not least a lovely card using the Daisy Lane stamp set (149325) and coordinating Daisy Punches (143713 and 149517).

Done in Cherry Cobbler and Blushing Bride it uses our Subtles Designer Series Paper Stack (149615) for the small gingham background. It’s soft and sweet and perfect to send to a friend.

I feel really blessed to have such a great group of stampers and we always have the best time together sharing and stamping.

Did you know right now is a great time to purchase a starter kit? It’s the best deal in the catalog and during Sale-a-bration (until March 31st) not only will you get to choose $125 in product, an addition FREE stamp set of your choice, but you’ll also receive a Mini Paper Cutter and Designer Series Sampler.

#OnStage2019 Swaps, a Sneak Peek & More

Posted on November 23, 2019 by Stamp with Jini

Today I’ll be sharing a few more swaps that I received from folks during the OnStage event in Atlanta along with my sneak peek of the goodies I received from the 2020 January – June Mini Catalog Product Purchase Premiere!

I’ll start with the swaps first all of these sets can be found in our 2019 Annual Catalog. Swapping cards is a way for us to share and meet other stampers and I always love the variety of cards. This first card uses the Accented Blooms stamp set (151336).

And this next card uses one of my favorite sets Back on Your Feet (149385) – seems like I’ve needed lots of get well cards this year.

And how about this fun tropical feeling card – perfect for warming up that cold arctic blast we were experiencing last week. The Tropical Chic stamp set (148226) has a set of coordinating dies which makes it a lot of fun to use.

And a fun card that uses strips to create a colorful back ground and it uses

the Love What You Do stamp set (148042) which has some wonderful sentiments in it. And here is a card made with our Butterfly Beauty Dies (148536) and the Butterfly Gala stamp set (148580) two very popular products.

And how about this next card using the Dandelion Wishes stamp set (151345)?

My final swap to share with you today uses the Winds of Change Stamp set (149357),

Got a favorite? Why not leave me a comment and let me know which one you like best?

More #OnStage2019 Fun

Here are a few more photos from the event – it was so much fun having my team there to celebrate with me. Stampin’ Up! always makes the tables a fest for your eyes with it’s colors and images. And of course a gift.

prize patrol is always a hit

And of course a little stamping too rounds out the event – what fun to see and try the products!

And some recognition too – I was excited to celebrate my earning of the Maui Trip and my 10th Anniversary as a Demonstrator. In addition, I was surprised to learn I was 48th in the US as a Team Leader. (Currently there are 37,591 Demonstrators in the US and 52,142 in the World.)

I’m truly thankful, grateful and blessed! I appreciate the fact I have the most wonderful Team, The Blue Mountain Stampers and the best customers a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator could ask for!!!

And now for the sneak peek I know you’ve been waiting for – Here is my video of my unpacking of my 2020 January – June Mini Catalog & 2020 Sale-a-bration products that I was able to order during after OnStage during the Product Purchase Premiere. One of the best things I like about being a demonstrator is being able to get products first!

2020 January Mini Catalog OnStage Product Purchase Premiere Sneak Peek Video

Fun right? You’re going to LOVE this Mini Catalog.

Interested in being one of the first to order products too? My video is just a peek of what’s inside the 20202 January Mini Catalog! And as I am sure you can guess, being the first to see this new catalog or any of our new catalogs is a very exciting AND a huge perk of being a Demonstrator – after all who wouldn’t want to be first? Right! Add the fact that you’ll receive a discount on all these products and you can’t loose! If you feel this is a good time to join Stampin’ Up! and my team, the Blue Mountain Stampers, you too can be first too!
