Today’s project is one that I made as a little gift for the NE GA Stampin’ Up! Demos recent shoe box swap that I hosted last Saturday.
This event is a new one that I’m hosting for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators, including those in North and South Carolina who want to participate and are in driving distance. It’s a lot of fun sharing and stamping together.
It holds a some heart shaped chocolate cakes in it made by Little Debbie.
So quick and simple to make and who wouldn’t like a little cake to sweeten their day?
Check out my video below to see just how easy they are to whip up!
Today’s card was created using the FREE Sale-a-bration stamp set, Thoughtful Blooms and the Something for Everyone set from the December’s Paper Pumpkin Kit. Since the kit contained a sentiment set I thought this image heavy set was a great choice to create a variety of projects with.
Here is the Note Card that I made.
Here is a quick video showing you how I made this card and see how I put it together.

I used the Cajun Craze ink spot from the December Kit along with the Shaded Spruce ink spot that came in the November Kit – so all you have to do is add some card stock, to the pack of Note Cards and a couple of versatile accessories. Paper Pumpkin kits are a great way to start building your collection of paper craft products. And each month I share a alternate project with you too, like today’s card so that you can use your stamp set again and again.

It’s a week of tutorials and today I’ll be starting with a project that uses several of our FREE Sale-a-bration products that coordinate together. When I first saw this Sale-a-bration option I knew it was one I wanted to add to my collection and would reach for over and over again! I shared with you my January #imbringingbirthdaysback birthday card I made earlier HERE.
And since I thought it would be a lot of fun to kick the year off with calendars for my stamping friends here is what I came up with.
I’m still in the process of putting them together, but I wanted to share this with you – so if you’re a customer of mine watch for one coming to your mail box soon!
Can you name the set the sentiment is from without looking?
The “Happy Day” sentiment for this project is from one of my favorite sentiment sets, Itty Bitty Greetings. This set holds 32 greetings that cover all kinds of occasions, so it’s a great value and wonderful to team up with your favorite image sets.
Easel fancy folds are perfect for setting this calendar up on your desk and enjoying it though out the year, and with this Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper it’s like looking at a little piece of art.

Yesterday I shared a fun card that I made with you inspired by a demonstration at OnStage. (You can see my post HERE sharing videos and PDF for this project.)
Today I wanted to share my Technique Book with you.
When I started stamping I kept every card I made that used a technique so that I could remember how I created it. Not exactly the point of making a card, right? We should be sending them out!
So, this book is designed as a companion to my Classes and Team Training. It uses our Memories & More 6″ x 8″ Album and pages so it allows you to keep a little sample of the technique along with step by step instructions for that technique all in one handy place – So you can reach for them easily! Now I send those cards instead of hanging on to them and you can too!
Here is the Reverse Die Cutting Technique Page and assembly instructions PDF for this project, so you can see how it looks and give it a try.
I’m BIG on instructions so I include them with every Class I do, whether it is a LIVE event or KIT to GO Class. And with your first Class/and order album and page order I send you a PDF with the cover labels so you can decorate your Technique Album as desired using your favorite technique.
Enjoy!
Stop back by next week when I’ll be sharing my organizational items for the NEW Mini Catalog!

Learning new things is always fun and during OnStage in November one of the presenters showed us a Reverse Die Cutting Technique which I couldn’t resist recreating with my team at our OnStage After Party.
This card not only use a fancy fold called the Double Point, it also uses a fun technique with our dies. It was definitely a wow moment at my table that afternoon. And since I know that if I don’t do something right away I’d forget the steps, I whipped up this project quickly.
Not only are you going to love the New Dressed to Impress Bundle with it’s quirky sayings, but it is perfect for this technique with the shoe image.
This stamp set is part of my March Classes so why not stop by my Calendar of Events and save the date. Not only am I offering it LIVE but it will also be available in a Kit to Go you you can get the free class when you sign up too!

Today’s project is one that I made for my Team OnStage After Party as a treat and it some how got buried on my desk. (lol if you could only see it). That’s the bad news, but because of that the good news is over the next week I’ll be sharing some fun projects and tutorials with you now using NEW 2020 Mini Catalog products from that fun event along with some pictures too! Sound good? Hold on to your hats – this Mini is packed with fantastic product choices for us!!!

I found these at Target before the holiday, so you might be able to find some on sale some where at this point too.
I whipped up a bunch of these quickly for those attending the OnStage After Party.

I got started stamping with this fun set and couldn’t stop stamping with them. So here is another card for you made with these delightful birds, this time my December Thank You card.
This time I’ve teamed them up with the Crackle Paint Background Stamp to create this “icy” look.
Done in shades of blue I really like the way it turned out. And when you use your Stamparatus they are a breeze to make!

I love these little penguins that you can find in the Playful Penguin stamp set, but then I haven’t met a penguin I don’t like since I was a young adult. LOL!
Today’s card is one that I created for my December birthdays
I’ve used the sentiment from the set for the outside greeting, but chose the Itty Bitty Birthdays stamp set for the inside since it has tons of choices. And since I’m thinking snow today, I reached for my Pretty Peacock and Pool Party Classic Inks to use – they worked great with the Come to Gather Designer Series Paper gingham pattern!
Did you know this adorable little set is part of the Holiday Catalog Retirement List? Sure enough, so that means it is only available for a limited time and then it will be gone!
