Quite Curvy Note Pad Holder & More

Posted on by

Whew! The week is flying by and tonight starts the Stampin’ Up! OnStage@Home event. I’m excited about this opportunity to gather with my fellow demonstrators from around the world. It’s sure to be a jam packed 3 days as always and while it is not a live event in Salt Lake as planned originally I’m just happy that I’m able to participate this way from home. Stampin’ Up! never disappoints at these events.

I didn’t want to spoil the surprise earlier this week, but by now everyone should have received their little goodies in the mail. So….. today I thought I’d share with you a fun project that I made as a gift for my team members that will be joining me for the OnStage@Home event. I just love the Quite Curvy Bundle so I started there.

I just couldn’t resist these sweet little birds and the fact that the sentiments curve along the die cut edges! So want to see what I made?

Here you go this soft and sweet note pad holders

I’m really pleased with the way they turned out and I had some sticky notes and flags that I thought went perfectly with this project too!

So what do you think? Want to learn how to make your own? While you may not have the same little flags and sticky notes I’m sure you can find some similar sized for your projects. Or how about a sticky note and mini calendar? The options are endless and I find that one of the fun things about creating a gift like this.

I’ve put together a video tutorial for you. It’s a bit longer than my normal videos, but it shows you the how to from start to finish. And as always I’ve given you a printable PDF with a complete supply list and step by step instructions.

I’ve also got this great tip for cutting out your stamped images with our dies. Do you ever miss cut? I really hate that and this quick little tip REALLY helps!

How to Cut Die Cut Images Consistently Video Tutorial

So what do you think? Helpful? Why not give it a try and then leave a comment to let me know if you like doing it this way. Either way I hope this little tip helps you with your crafting too!

And now without further delay here is that printable PDF I told you about with the complete supply list.

Beautiful Autumn

Posted on by

This Suite of products has been particularly popular with it’s set of 3 punches – it’s great for quick and easy projects too.

Check out these lovely cards made using the Beautiful Autumn Bundle (155189). This first card is sweet and simple perfect for #simplestamping and beginners as it uses a limited number of products.

Beautiful Autumn

Our Classic Ink Mint Macaron, Early Espresso and Cajun Craze were used for the stamping along with the Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper for a bit of gold foil.

This next card uses the punches to punch the images from the Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper. Soo easy!

Beautiful Autumn

The strip of Early Espresso down the center was embossed using the Tasteful Texture 3D Embossing Folder (152718) to add a bit of texture along with the stitched die to cut out the sentiment. Lovely.

And this final card is strikingly elegant in it’s simplicity. Once again texture was added to the Very Vanilla panel using the Tasteful Textured 3D Embossing Folder. The beautiful foil panel is then layered with some stitched squares and topped with the stamped images that have been colored with our Stampin’ Blends and punched out with the Autumn Punch Pack (153609).

Beautiful Autumn

A bit of the Metallic Ribbon (153553) and Acorn Trinkets (153552) make this card extra special.

What do you think? Like this Suite of products? Why not check it out ? And remember if the Suite item number is unavailable due to a back order, you can still order the individual items.

Enjoy!

On a personal note.

While I was originally suppose to fly out yesterday for this event I guess things worked out for the best since since it’s now being streamed. I’m really excited about this event and look forward to it starting this afternoon.

While I was disappointed not to be able to gather together with my fellow demonstrators and friends and see New Orleans for the first time, Stampin’ Up! has already started this event with a bang! I received a surprise package in the mail earlier this month – This lovely box and it’s from Tiffany & Co.!

What a treat! I never dreamed I’d receive a gift from Tiffany & Co.! So I sat it on my shelf for a few days just enjoying the special box and wondering what was in it before I opened it.

We’ll be using these special flutes during our Welcome session later today. I’ve already got my sparkling cider chilling! It’s going to be a full 3 days streaming together!!!

Did I mention I was excited? This is a going to be another fantastic Stampin’ Up! event I can already tell just from the pre-event information we’ve received. LOL!!!

Well I’m off to set up my classroom with all the creature comforts for streaming.

Stop back by next week for more inspiration and my September Class information and my first Christmas Card Stamp a Stack this fall.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Beautiful Autumn (*153450)

Paper: Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper (153520)

#OnStage2019 Swaps, a Sneak Peek & More

Posted on by

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?

#OnStage2019, Light & Peace and more

Posted on by

Today I thought I would share some of the Holiday Catalog swaps that I received during OnStage in Atlanta last weekend along with some more pictures.

I am going to begin with a 3d items I received – a cute tic tac holder using the Perfectly Plaid Suite of Products (153326). Absolutely adorable and perfect to give a little something!

And here are a couple of lovely cards. This first one uses the Perfectly Pines stamp stamp set (149418) teamed up with our Mosaic Mood Specialty Designer Series Paper 9149478) from the Annual Catalog.

It is a square card that has a fun fold and opens a bit differently. Slip off the belly band and here is what you have.

fun, right?

And how about this elegant card using the Light & Peace stamp set (150516)?

Done in Blackberry Bliss it uses our Champagne Foil Sheets (144748), Mosaic 3D Embossing Folder (149575) along with our Silver (109131) and Shimmer Black Embossing Powders (149512).

These pictures just don’t do justice to these projects. (I’m still getting use to my camera and am really missing my old phone lol)

CentreStage

Friday night, Leaders gathered for what we call CenterStage, this is an event that includes a lovely evening of pampering before OnStage.

Susan and I stopped for a snap shot before going in. Who would have thought all those years ago she would inspire the dream of becoming a leader and earn an Incentive Trip. My husband Larry, joined me for the meetings after work regularly 10 years ago since we car pooled to his job after we moved. During one of the meetings, Susan spoke about the Alaskan Cruise which was the incentive trip that year. On the way home I can remember Larry asked me if I could do that to. I said yes, anyone could. He was so excited by the idea and has patiently supported me over the last 10 years as I worked toward this goal – and here I am! I am so appreciative and blessed to have earn the Maui trip and he’s soooo excited too!

I truly enjoy CentreStage as it is smaller and a chance to connect with old friends and meet new friends. Here I am with Lori whom I met during our first Atlanta OnStage years ago

And Barbara whom I’ve been doing my organized swaps with for years.

Stampin’ Up! is always very generous and there is always a special gift for us at the table

Our swag bags that include the NEW January – June Mini Catalog and Sale-a-bration Brochure, Squeal!!!

And we have a chance to hear news about what is going to happen and speak with the folks from the home office.

Here I am with Tanner, who is over the Southeast Area. I think it is always fun to see the people we work with online. Don’t you?

Just a little taste of what last Friday was like. Stop back by – I’ll be share more swap swaps and more!

#OnStage2019 Bird Ballard Flip Album

Posted on by

Whew, it’s been a busy weekend and I’m just catching up. I had a fantastic time over the weekend at our OnStage Local in Atlanta. It’s always great to meet new friends! Friday I shared one of the table 3d treats I made for folks and today I wanted to share the fun flip album I made as part of my team gifts for the event.

I just love the Bird Ballard Designer Series Paper with all it’s lovely water colored images so it was a perfect choice for this project as we were getting our first look at the 2020 January-June Mini Catalog & Sale-a-bration Brochure. (You are going to LOVE it!)

This album was fairly easy to whip up and is perfect for all kinds of events, trips, or even a brag book for Grandma! It will hold up to 10 photos including a 4×6, but is compact so it’s easy to store or take along with you.

I’ve made a video tutorial for you so you can see how I created this Flip Album

2019 Incentive Trip – Maui, here we come!

Posted on by

I have been trying to figure out how to share my good news with you all… and it is truly big news!

On August 26th, I got several customer orders that put me over top allowing me to achieve the Stampin’ Up 2019 Incentive Trip to Maui.  On October 6th reports will be finalized and I will be able to redeem the points for an all-expenses paid trip for two to Maui July 2020. I can’t even begin to tell you just how excited my husband, Larry is about this trip!!!

I am still processing the fact that I’ve reached my goal and pinching myself to make sure it’s not a dream. I was not sure that I should share until it was official, but I wanted to go ahead now since so many of you have been following my progress.

So here goes and all I can say is Thank you!

Thank you to my AMAZING customers.  Every order you place allows me to do what I love AND share my love of crafting with you. I can’t tell you how much your support and friendship mean to me.

Thank you to the best team ever! The Blue Mountain Stampers thank you for sharing your talent, inspiring me, and keeping me on track! You have been working hard too, and becoming successful in each of your own ways. I am so proud of you, and that fact you let me be a part of your Stampin’ Up! journey. I’m so honored that you have you chosen to join our team! I could not have achieved this trip without you!

Thank you to those NEW customers who reached out to me and placed orders. You’ve touched me deeply with your kind comments and your desire in wanting to help me reach my goal.

Thank you to my biggest fans who have stamped with me over the past 10 years! You refer your friends to me. You share your life and encourage me to become better. You are the inspiration! Because of you I feel like I can achieve anything.

Thank you to my husband and family who have been supportive and have patiently waited for me and pitched in when I needed it.

Thank you to my adopted Stampin’ Up! family who have given me their friendship, believed in me, mentored me, and inspired me to reach for the stars.

Thank you so much for making this goal and my dream come true!

(Disclaimer: less than 1% of Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators make the Incentive Trip each year)

OnStage 2019 Annual Catalog Product Purchase Premiere Sneak Peek & More

Posted on by

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!!!

Butterfly Gala Floating Frame

Posted on by

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!

Last Chance List Update:

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.

Enjoy!

Team time at OnStage

Posted on by

Today’s projects are some fun ones that I always enjoy doing when we have a Stampin’ Up! event for my team. And I’m excited to be heading for our OnStage Local in Charlotte this weekend. What could be better than spending time with others who love stamping?

However when you are with hundreds of other demonstrators who all have the same bag – I find it is fun to have yours easily identifiable with a special name tag. So here is what I came up with for our Charlotte event.

I love the little charms I’ve added to the tag too. They are so much fun to make – and I found some beads that I think went nicely with what I expect to be some of our new 2019-2021 In Colors!

After the event they can be added to our key chains if they’d like. And to help them jot down all the great ideas – everyone needs a note book and pen. I used our Crafting Forever stamp set (14955/143958) and the Layering Circles Framelits Dies (141705) to create the sentiment.

And I used the sentiment set from Sale-a-bration for the inside. I am truly blessed by my Team, they inspire me every time we gather.

I’ll be sharing a tutorial for these when I get back – they were so much fun to make! I’m afraid I just ran out of time this week.

And finally some post its so that we can flag all those new products that we want! I know this years Annual Catalog is going to be a great one. (I’m sure my shopping list will be a long one) – I can’t wait to see it!

I really like the way that the note pad and flag holders turned out. They were made with a demonstrator supply folder that I cut apart. I love the flowers so I was happy I was able to make the flowers on the front of the folder the focal point, and the back of the folder had our logo which was perfect for the flags I thought.

I had planned on sharing a video tutorial with you today of the final gift, but my IPad apparently didn’t like something I did since the file is corrupted, so I’ll be sharing that with you next week as soon as I can re film the project.

Enjoy your weekend and stop back by next week to see the OnStage fun and a sneak peek at the new 2019 Annual Catalog.
