Birthday Blast & More

Posted on May 25, 2017 by Stamp with Jini

Today I’ll be sharing with you the projects and Make ‘n Takes that I made for my FREE Sale-a-bration Celebration Event that was held earlier this month for those who qualified during Sale-a-bration. I had a lot of fun pampering everyone – after all I couldn’t do this without each and everyone of you!

Here is my classroom all set up and ready to go.

Everyone had a spot with their treats and projects ready for them.

I made these cute little name tags using the Cool Treats stamp set (142982) so they could find their spot.

And everyone received these cute little post it note easel holders using the retiring Papillon Potpourri stamp set (132058/123759), Bitty Butterfly Punch (129406), Elegant Butterfly Punch (127526) and the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits Dies (141497).

I had a lot of fun making these post it note easel holders. (I’ll miss this stamp set with it’s coordinating punches it has been one of my go to sets. So many uses!) I found these sticky notes for them once again at Target – don’t you love their dollar spot? If you missed it and would like to learn how to make these holders I have a quick Video Tutorial HERE.

I also made these little chocolate holders using the retiring Festive Birthday Designer Series Paper (141630).

It was sooo easy to whip up a batch of these. And after all who doesn’t enjoy a little chocolate?

I simply cut the Designer Series Paper into 3″ x 6″ strips, added a bit of Snail across the top and then folded them in half. Stamp my sentiment from the Endless Birthday Wishes stamp set (140273) and used the Triple Banner Punch to create the flag. Then I tied some Baker’s Twine in different colors around the top and slipped in a Ghiradelli Chocolate. Yep! That quick and easy!!!

And what did we make? 6 cards! This first card got my daughter’s seal of approval so I had to include it. LOL! It uses the Birthday Blast stamp set (142854/142866).

This second card uses the retiring Playful Palette Designer Series Paper (141657) and the Grateful Bunch stamp set (140691) along with it coordinating Blossom Punch (140612).

And this final card uses the retiring Party Animal Designer Series Paper (142823) and Balloon Adventures stamp set (142823) from the Occasions Catalog. It’s got such great sentiments in the set.

There is still time to these wonderful retiring products, but it is while supplies last now. You can find them in my Online Store.

Posted on May 7, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

Monday night I held a Special Event for everyone who earned their spot during Sale-a-bration. And everyone who earn a spot for my Sale-a-bration Celebration was able to bring a friend if they chose to. After all, what’s better than stamping with friends!

Here is the room ready and waiting for everyone to arrive.

My friend, Susan showed me how to make these darling little tea cups filled with Hershey’s Hugs and Kisses on Sunday afternoon and I couldn’t resist making them for this event.

Darling, right? Everyone who attended found one of these sweet tea cups at their seats.

I also made these special little bags for those that earned a spot to put their projects in. Each bag had their name hanging from clothes pins. It was sooo easy since these bags were one of our past Paper Pumpkin Kits called In the Bag. I just love how everything is in the box!

And another special treat for those that earned a spot.

And of course there were a few goodies to eat too.

Here are a couple of photos of everyone working on their make ‘n takes. Everyone who attended was able to stamp four cards.

And we had to have games and prizes, right? So we played Name that Color. Everyone did great – have you ever tried to name all the colors?

Everyone was also able to earn tickets for the 3 door prizes. They chose what bucket to put their tickets into based on which item they wanted to win. Here is Genie with the “Grand Prize” a Hooray It’s Your Day Project Kit (139166) from the Occasions Catalog!

Thank you Melanie for drawing the winners for me!

Want to see the projects we made? Stop by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing the cards with you.

Just Thinking Tutorial

Posted on January 24, 2013 by Stamp with Jini

Want to see what we did at my FREE Sale-a-bration Celebration Event? This past Sunday I was able to share the NEW Spring Catalog products and some of the things I brought back with me from Stampin’ Up! Leadership in Orlando. What fun everyone had together – it’s one of my favorite parts of stamping.

First here are some pictures of my classroom and some of the displays.

Of course there has to be chocolate – after all what would be stamping without chocolate?

Everyone seemed to have a great time with the two cards they were able to make.

Here is my favorite card that I created for the event using the Just Thinking Stamp from the Spring Catalog. Just Thinking was one of the stamps I just knew I wanted when I saw the Spring Catalog the first time!

Since not everyone was able to come I thought I would share with you a tutorial on how my Just Thinking card was made, along with my very first video tutorial showing you how to use our Core’dinations Card Stock. I just love the Core’dinations Card Stock and think you will too – it’s a lot of fun to work with and very versatile. Better yet you’ll find three Core’dination Card Stock color choices Pool Party (item 129321), Primrose Petals (item 129322), and Real Red (item 129320) in the Spring Catalog on page 12.

Just Thinking Tutorial

Supplies:

Raspberry Ripple Card Stock (item 126842 $6.95): 4 ¼” x 11″; scored at 5 ½” and folded

Primrose Petals Core’dinations Card Stock (item 129322 $6.95): 4″ x 5 1/4″

Very Vanilla Card Stock (item 101650 $8.50): 8 1/2″ x 3 ½”

5/8″ Very Vanilla Seam Binding (item 120999 $6.96): 20″

Honeycomb Embossing Folder (item 129378 $7.95)

Stampin’ Sanding Block (item 129367 $3.95)

Window Frames Collection Framelits Dies (item 129021 $26.96)

2 ½” Circle Punch (item 120906 $16.95)

Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive (item 110755 $3.95)

Dimensionals (item 104430 $3.95)

Instructions:

1. Prepare your Core’dinations Card Stock Layer as shown in the video.

2. Adhere the Primrose Petals Core’dinations Card Stock to your card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. (I like to use this adhesive on anything that has a heavy texture.)

3. Stamp two images onto Very Vanilla Card Stock using Raspberry Ripple Classic Ink.

4. Using the Window Frame Framelits Die and Big Shot cut out one of the images.

5. Adhere to the card front.

6. Punch the sentiment out of the second stamped image using the 2 ½” Circle Punch.

7. Adhere to the card front using Dimensionals.

8. Loop ribbon around the card front and tie into a bow. Trim ends.

That’s it – now you can send your card to someone you’re thinking about.

And don’t worry about the fact you need to use your email when you leave a comment – no one else will see it except me. My blog only asks for your name and email so it knows you’re a real person and not a robot spammer and I’ll only send you email if you have requested my Newsletter.
