Everyday Hero & tons more!

Recently I was able to get together with my Kathleen and her team for some stamping fun and so I thought I’d share some of the project that we made together along with some of the swaps we did.

The first card I’m sharing with you is a swap from Maria using the Everyday Hero stamp set (143080). Maria used our Watercolor Pencils to color this adorable super hero and the Gold Wink of Stella (141898) to color win the WOW so it sparkles.

More swapping fun included cards from Lorraine and Susan using the Dragonfly Dreams Bundle of products (144728).

If you haven’t already gotten this bundle it’s a great one! Lots of fantastic ideas are out there – the options are endless!

And of course who doesn’t love the Beautiful You stamp set 143004/143637) that Teresa used for her card.

And Linda who is new to the team used the Layering Love stamp set (141962/141965) along with the Blooms & Bliss Designer Series Paper (141654) to create this soft lovely card.

She used the Decorative Label Punch (120907) for the end of the banner in a different way – She slipped the card stock into the punch and through the hole so that she only cut one end of the card stock – cool, right?

I just love the versatility of punches!

And finally some of our Make n Takes that I stamped. First this cute little 3d boat made using the Window Box Thinlits Die (142762). Wouldn’t these be great done in red, white and blue for Memorial Day?

And a card using using the Window Shopping Bundle (144742/144743) which includes the same Thinlits, but using it in a different way.

And I love this Suite of products – the Urban District found on page 47 of the Occasions Catalog contains some wonderful coordinating products that include two stamp sets, Designer Series Paper and embellishments! Wow – great for the guys in our lives and so many other uses too.

And finally a Sale-a-bration project using the So Very Much stamp set (143340/143343) that you can earn for free until March 31st.

I loved this emboss resist technique using the 2016 In Colors so much that I’m sending this card out this month to say thank you when you place an order!

Whew! what did I tell you lots of sharing and inspiring going on.  Stamping with my fellow demonstrators is one of the things I enjoy most – it’s a time to gather, learn and inspire each other. And I’ve made some wonderful friendships in my stamping journey because I’m part of the community of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators.

Get your 2015 In Colors Before they’re Gone!

Our retiring In Colors are always one of the first things to disappear when the retirement list is announced in April – so now is a great time to complete your collection so you don’t miss out.

Swan Lake

Like swans? If so you’re going to like this wonderful little set found in the Occasions Catalog on page 53. This set not only contains charming images, but also has some wonderful sentiments. I was soooo excited when I won this set at On Stage in Atlanta last November after all who can resist the little ducklings? It reminds me of the days when my mother would all take us to Capital Court around Easter to see the decorations and the chicks and ducklings hatch. (If I remember correctly they were in an even bigger decorated egg of all things! Ah, well that was a long time ago…)

So today I’m sharing two cards that I received in my swap using this stamp set. This first card was given to me by Gina. I love the way she used our different patterns from the Brights Collection Paper Stack for this card.

The card swings open to  show you these cute little ducklings and sentiment.

And here is another card also done in Brights, but this time using the Festive Birthday Designer Series Paper (141630).

And here a couple more wonderful cards made with our FREE Sale-a-bration stamp sets.

This first one uses the So Very Much stamp set and the Carried Away Designer Series Paper. Deborah cut the little hot air balloons to add to the corner with the Night of Navy Solid Bakers Twine.

And this card for Lorrie uses the elegant set Delicate Details and also uses the Carried Away Designer Series Paper from the Sale-a-bration choices.

It’s a lot of fun to see how the same product, this time Designer Series paper, can be used so many different ways.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Swan Lake (142974/142977)

Inks: Basic Black Archival Ink (140931) and Old Olive Classic Ink (126953)

Paper: Brights Collection Designer Series Paper Stack (138434), Old Olive (100702) and Whisper White Card Stock (100730)

Accessories: Watercolor Pencils (141709) and Blender Pen (102645)

And how about this cute little card that Sandy made using the Tasty Trucks stamp set (143300). And the bright colors are so much fun. Sandy used the  Sending Love Designer Series Paper Stack (142733) and Brights Collection Designer Series Paper Stack (138434) along with the Lucky Stars Embossing Folder (135817) to add some texture.

I’m not sure what it is about this little truck, but I fell in love with it immediately! And isn’t the Mini Paper Clip (1427666) too cute?

And this soft and lovely card uses the Avant Garden stamp set (143272) in addition to our yummy Very Vanilla 1/4″ Satin Ribbon (142794) found in the Occasions Catalog and the Petal Burst Embossing Folder (141493).

And here is a fun card made with the Any Occasion stamp set (143348) from Lianna.

And who can resist this fun card made with the Designer Tee stamp set (143356/143359) and Sunburst Thinlits (140617) that Gina made?

Thank you cards are always a great item to have on hand and the So Very Much stamp set (143340/143343) found on page 8 of the Sale-a-bration catalog makes these cards quick and easy!

And finally another card that Lianna gave me uses the soft elegant Delicate Details stamp set (143314) I really like the way she used out In Colors to create this simply background for the card.

The sentiment is from our Tin of Cards stamp set (138946) which is one of my favorites since it covers all kinds of occasions! And did you notice our Stitched Shapes Framelits Die (145372)? Great news these will be available again soon so if you have been waiting you won’t have to wait much longer.
