Botanical Invitations

Posted on April 20, 2017 by Stamp with Jini

I always do a celebration for those that qualify for my FREE Event during Sale-a-bration and so today I thought I would share the invitations that I made for everyone along with a PDF tutorial for you.

This card uses a couple of the items on our Retirement list that I’m sad to see go specifically the wonderful Gorgeous Grunge (130514/130517) which is wonderful for collage or creating backgrounds with interest and the Botanical Builder Framelits Dies (140625) since they have these wonderful pop up areas to the flowers that create wonderful 3d effects.

Here is the tutorial that I’ve created for you – so you can make some too!

Among the Branches

Posted on October 5, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

Same stamp set – two very different styled cards. This first card not only uses the Among the Branches stamps set (139823), but it also uses the Gorgeous Grunge (130514/130517) to add a little texture and interest behind the Tea Lace Paper Doilies (129399).

The The Silver Glimmer Paper (135314) and Basic Rhinestones (119246) give it a little pizzaz.

And this one is elegant and classic –

I love the Gold Foil Sheets (132622) and Gold 1/8″ Ribbon (134583) that give it that touch of formal elegance.

No Bones about It – Swapping Fun!

Posted on July 7, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

Do you like to see what others create? Well I do – an that is part of the fun getting together for our team meetings. Swapping and learning from each other. Here are three of the cards that I swapped last week at the meeting I told you about last Thursday.

This first card was given to me by Susan and it uses the stamp set No Bones About It (138756) and the Go Wild Designer Series Paper Stack (138756).

Fun right? This set is just, well… fun – and I couldn’t resist this great card!

How about Christmas in July? Check out this fun Christmas card that Janette gave me using the Gorgeous Grunge (130514/130517), Petite Pairs (128706/122497) and the Flower Shop stamp sets (130939/130942).

What a great way to use a non holiday set to create your holiday cards!

And finally a card from Teresa using the 2015-2017 In Color Envelope Paper (138312) and the Tree Builder Punch (138295).

I always enjoy getting together for these monthly meetings and learning new things while stamping together. I’ve got a lot of great swaps that I just received and want to share with you so stop on by again tomorrow.

Saying goodbye to the old & hello to the new!

Posted on January 4, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

This week Stampin’ Up! will be transitioning catalogs – As we say goodbye to the 2014 Holiday Catalog and hello to the 2015 Occasions and Sale-a-bration catalogs I wanted to remind you of a few important dates.

Monday, January 5th – The Catalog transition and other special promotions are ending on January 5th – so you don’t miss out on any of the goodies.

2014 Holiday Catalog: ends Monday, January 5th at 11:50 p.m. (MT)
Year End Closeouts: ends Monday, January 5th at 11:50 p.m. (MT)
Weekly Deals: ends Monday, January 5th at 11:50 p.m. (MT)

Tuesday, January 6th is the kick off for two new fun catalogs –

2015 Occasions Catalog: starts Tuesday, January 6th
Sale-a-bration Catalog: starts Tuesday, January 6th

If you are a customer of mine who has made a recent purchase you should have already received one from me in your mailbox by now.

You may think you haven’t received the 2015 Occasions Catalog – It’s a bit confusing since the Occasions Catalog has a special cover that matches our smaller Sale-a-bration brochure. But the Catalog is larger (8×10) and while the outer cover is yellow, it’s just is a reminder about the Sale-a-bration kick off. Open it and you’ll see the Occasions Catalog’s amazing cover with our beautiful project kit on the front cover. (You can find this Build-a-Bouquet Project kit inside on page 29.)

Inside you’ll see that there are some items from the Holiday Catalog that will be available – however most items will no longer be available.

Such as ALL the Designer Series Paper! Along with some items you won’t want to miss out on and are must haves from the 2014 Holiday Catalog. I’ll be sharing some of my favorite sets that are going away today.

They are thank you cards that I made recently –

First the wonderful Seasonally Scattered (135020/135023). I chose to use Garden Green and Calypso Coral for this card along with my Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack (133787).

Don’t you love our Seam Binding? It ties beautifully. Add few Basic Pearls and it’s finished!

These next two are note cards (133766/131527) that I made using the Ornamental Pine stamp set (135104/135107) and the Lots of Thanks set (129687/129690) .

And these last two thank you cards use the Letterpress Winter Photopolymer stamp set (135143). This first one is done in Lost Lagoon and Pool Party with a few Rhinestones added.

And this one uses the soon to be gone Motley Monsters Designer Series Paper (135819).

2015 Occasions Catalog Sneak Peek – Guy Greetings

And speaking of the 2015 Occasions Catalog – Here is a sneak peek of one of the fun stamp sets, Guy Greetings, that is included for the spring!

I made this card for a demonstrator meeting swap recently. Not only does it use the Guy Greetings stamp set (138825/138828/137178) found in the new 2015 Occasions Catalog, but it also uses an old favorite that is leaving – the Color Me Autumn Designer Series Paper (135820) along with the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set (130514/130517).

What do you think? I’m loving this little set for all the guys in my life!

Merry Everything!

Posted on October 29, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

Here are two more great cards that I want to share with you and they share a color theme. Can you tell me what it is? LOL.

This first card uses the Merry Everything (135068/135071) and the Fall Fest Stamp sets (135194) from the holiday catalog. I love the fact that not only does Merry Everything cover all your fall holidays but it also comes with a coordinating punch too – the Note Tag Punch. Ahhh… and you know how punches are one of my vices. LOL

This second card was given to me by Jeannette and uses our Gorgeous Grunge set (130514/130517) along with the exclusive Hostess set Good Greetings (135014/135017). Oooo… I’m going to miss using these fun sentiments.I just love the font that the 19 different sentiments are done in. This set is such a great deal and you only have a few more days to earn it before it is gone!

So can you guess the color theme? Leave me a comment and let me know what it is and which card you like best.

Boys will be boys

Posted on September 16, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

Seems like September is one of those months with lots of birthdays and so I thought I would share with you a card that I created for a special little guy in our lives.

This card was made using the Boys Will Be Boys stamp set (134135/134138). I used the Confetti Celebration Designer Series Paper as inspiration for adding color to my blocks. I simply used my Blender Pen and the ink from the lid to color them.

I really like the fun way this card opens too.

Boys Will Be Boys is a set that is filled with all kinds of great childhood images. I especially remember the little plastic parachute dude – my big brother Mark was always dropping his from the top of our stairs over the railing and watching it land in the family room below.

Stamp Set: Boys will be Boys (134135/134138) and Gorgeous Grunge (130514/130517)

Vintage Flower Shop

Posted on June 20, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s card is one that has for better term, a vintage feel to it. Isn’t it funny how you can change the whole look of a card with just the choice of card stock and colors you use?

The base for this card is Naturals Ivory Card Stock (101849) and if you haven’t ever used our Naturals Card Stock you’re in for a pleasant surprise when you try it. It has such a rich earthy feel to it, and it can really make a difference to the whole look of your project. I use the Nautrals card stocks when I’m wanting a more subtle feel of color, (Whisper White or Very Vanilla), and look for a project.

This card uses the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set which is a wonderful set to add to your collection since it is so versatile and lends itself to so many different styles. It is one that you may pass over at first when you flip through the catalog, since it seems a little bland at first – but don’t let that deter you. Once you stamp with it you’ll wonder why you didn’t get it sooner!

Hope to see you this Saturday – There is still time to RSVP!
