A Basket full of Posies

Posted on April 28, 2016 by Stamp with Jini

I love when everything comes together easily and of course Stampin’ Up! gives us a great start since their products are designed to work together!

An example is this card that I received in a swap from Brenda. Not only does it use the flowers from the Crazy About You stamp set with it’s coordinating punch, but she also uses the Berry Basket Die and Handpicked Framelits Dies. They are sized perfectly for this card.

Here are some other fun items I’ve made using the Berry Basket Die.

You’ll want to check out the supply list since this card uses items that are included on that list at great discounts. Remember Accessories are while supplies last. Click HERE to see all the Retirement Items in my online store.

Crazy About You & April Events

Posted on April 4, 2016 by Stamp with Jini

Want a fun bold color combination? Why not check out the Bohemian Designer Series Paper and Washi Tape found in the Annual Catalog? I’ve used the Bohemian Washi Tape for this card since I love the rich colors it contains.

This card was quick and easy since the Washi Tape is simply stick and tear and the focal point has a coordinating punch. And who doesn’t LOVE a coordinating punch? LOL

The great thing about the Crazy About You stamp set is the fact it is available in wood, clear and photopolymer. You’ve got tons of sentiments to choose from and when you combine them you can come up with all kinds of greetings. I’ve just used the simple hello for this card, but how many combinations can you come up with when you look at the set?

And did you notice the center of my flower? It’s one of our fun self stick Metal Rimmed Pears (138394) which is part of our Weekly Deals that end today. If you haven’t tried these embellishments it’s a great time to get yours. They add a elegant pop to your card, come in three sizes and are self stick!

You can check out all the Weekly Deals below, but hurry- they end today at midnight (MT).

Crazy About You

Posted on March 30, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

Today I’m going to share with you some cards I created with the Crazy About You stamp set (138856/138859/137137). This stamp set has a ton of great sentiments along with 3 bold images and coordinating punches. And you know how I love punches! Great for quick and easy card making.

For this card I’ve teamed the image up with our new Yellow Citrus Chalk Ink (138093) and our fun new Chalkboard Paper (137786) along with the Best Day Ever Designer Series Paper and Accessory Pack. You can still earn these Sale-a-bration items FREE the next two days until Sale-a-bration ends on March 31st.

This next one uses the Best Day Ever paper and accessories, but this time I used the sentiment from the So You stamp set (137165)

So what do you think? Why not leave me a comment and let me know which is your favorite? I’d love to hear from you.

And as promised yesterday, here are some more cards made with Sale-a-bration products that I’ve created.

This first one uses the A Happy Thing – I love this little pudgy guy.

And the bright cheerful lemon. I’m not sure why I love this lemon so much – it just makes me feel like the sun is shinning.

And some Irresistibly Yours Specialty Designer Series Paper – LOVE that you can add the color you want and there are sooo many cool techniques you can do with this paper.

And another with the You Brighten My Day Crushed Curry polka dot piece.

And of course the Simply Wonderful stamp set. A cute little mini coffee cup made with the the Parklane Designer Series Paper (133694)

Weekly Deals end today

Blue Mountain Stampers’ Winter Weekend Retreat

Posted on January 19, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

Last week I mentioned I’d share with you some photos from my team retreat, but I got side tracked and forgot. So I thought I’d share them with you today – I hold these retreats three times a year for my team members. It’s like a big slumber party – although a lot of times we don’t get a lot of sleep since once we start creating we don’t want to stop! LOL.

These events are a lot of fun, laid back and relaxing. A nice time away from every day responsibilities.

Team members come and go based on their schedules. One day, evening, the Shoebox Swap, or the whole weekend. What ever works best with their schedules!

It’s a wonderful time of sharing and creating and everyone has access to my classroom items to create. (These events are typically tied to a new catalog launch so we can have fun playing and trying out items that we may not have gotten ourselves.) It’s a lot of fun since everyone does a show and tell before we start of their new goodies!

Here is one of the cards I created for my upcoming Coffee & Cards class on January 27th (There is still time to sign up for this event you can Click HERE to see my calendar of events and more information). It uses our new Crazy About You bundle (139324/139325/138873).

I used this card as my Shoebox Swap on Saturday afternoon – everyone got to make one at the Retreat on Saturday afternoon.

And here is a cute little treat that Janette gave everyone when she arrived on Saturday morning.

Adorable, right? Janette used the new Bow Builder Punch (137414), so the bows were quick and easy! And of course the cut out was created with the Hearts Collection Framelits Dies (125599) great for all kinds of Valentine’s Day projects.

I put together my Hello Life Project Kit (137949). I still need to add the photos to it,

but wow there were a ton of items left after I finished the kit – I can’t wait to use them for other projects or maybe do a second version of the kit so I can change things out. Of course that is if my daughter Kaitlin doesn’t run off with it – she immediately wanted it for her dorm when she saw it! What a great private class this kit makes (ask me about this option so you can earn a free kit).

Do my team retreats sound like fun? Want to join in? Have you ever thought about becoming a Demonstrator and getting a discount on your paper crafting supplies? Do you know you can join my team right now just $99? You’ll get $125 in Stampin’ Up! product of your choice plus 2 Sale-a-bration items – and it ships for FREE! So why not give it a try? Contact me today. You can click HERE to learn more about joining my team, the Blue Mountain Stampers.

Stop back by tomorrow and I’ll with you the Valentine’s project that I made during the retreat for my daughter and her friends.
