This stunning Love You Always Suite is absolutely delightful to dig into. It is perfect for Valentines, Anniversary, Weddings or general greetings…

Who loves free goodies?!! Well, get ready for January 5th because Sale-a-bration starts!! For every $50 of purchased Stampin’ Up! merchandise, you get to pick from a catalog of goodies! I’ve used Corner Bouquet & Heal Your Heart for these cards, and are both from the Sale-a-bration catalog & free!!

I love making treasure boxes with old cigar boxes, and have been making them for years. When I saw the stunning Fine Art Floral Suite coming in the Mini Catalog (January - June 2021), I knew that would be my first project with the gorgeous papers. Each petal on these papers has been hand painted and photographed for stunning effects!

Each month I scour the internet for gift boxes. I love to make goodie boxes for my customers at my monthly stamp camps. This paper is so cute and and made a perfect Ferrero Rocher box. The box is so pretty, it could hang from a Christmas tree as an ornament. I used the Curvey Celebrations Variety Bundle, along with Gold Foil CS, and tassels from a dear friend.

Why spend so much on a gift bag when you can make your own. It is especially lovely when you have a gift bag and card that coordinate together. The wonderful Poinsettia Place Suite by Stampin’ Up! has gorgeous DSP, stamps and dies that make every project a stunning success!

I am in love again…

As a demonstrator, I was able to pre-order the suite this last week, and just love the dandelions, dragonflies, bees and ladybugs! As an avid gardener and lover of anything floral, I find this suite so much fun! It brings to mind my childhood, laying in the grass watching ladybugs, blowing on dandelions, or putting yellow dandelion flowers under my siblings chin to see if they liked butter (silly I know).

One of the best perks of being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator (other than the discount) is getting access to new merchandise before it comes out in the catalogs! I was so excited to see the new Curvy Celebrations from the up and coming Spring Mini Catalog 2021…

Making Christmas gifts is a fun way to spend a day! Stampin' Up! makes gift making so easy with their coordinated colors of ink, cardstock and embellishments. Snowflake Splendor Suite has stunning colors in the DSP that begged to be used for this project. What’s better than a cute gift box and shaker ornament that comes together so easily with just a few steps.

I was not certain what I wanted to do for World Cardmaking Day, as I had never heard of it before 2020 (there are a LOT of holidays I have never heard of until social media took over our news… lol). Somehow I saw a post about Operation Gratitude…

We all love gorgeous Designer Series Paper, and during this incredible sale, you can enjoy a 15% discount on select papers from our current catalogs! Now is a great time to stock up and save on some of our most popular paper designs! Reach out to me and I can send you the list of DSP that is included in this sale!! Don’t miss out!

Here in sunny/warm SoCal, fall doesn’t feel like fall at all, so I turn on the AC and get into my fun fall stamp sets. One of the cute sets in the August 2020 to December 2020 Fall Mini is the Autumn Greetings Bundle (as a reminder, anytime you see the word “Bundle” or “Suite” that means a 10% discount when you buy the items together). I wanted a set I could color or stamp and this darling set of stamps and dies fit the bill perfectly.

I have been anticipating the September 2020 Hello Pumpkin, Paper Pumpkin delivery, for what seems like forever! It is so so so cute, with so many pieces and so much potential for every day use! Some of the ideas I CASE’d (Copy And Share Everything), but some are my own variations.

I just love any kind of foliage or flowers, especially when Stampin’ Up! does such a stunning job creating stamps and dies that have so much versatility. Rooted in Nature stamps and Natures Roots dies are just one of those sets.

Stampin’ Up! has an amazing treat for us! The Little Treats Bundle in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog, including the Little Treats Cling Stamp Set and the Little Treat Box Dies are so stinkin’ FUN!! I am preparing for my monthly stamp camp, and decided to show my customers how versatile this sweet bundle can be! Below you will find Halloween, Christmas, Birthdays (masculine & feminine), and a bridal or wedding theme of not just treat boxes, but of cards as well! Wow!

I love that I have the ability to create gifts right at my fingertips. They only take a few hours and the results are always appreciated. One of my favorites is making card gift sets. Stampin’ Up! makes it so easy to make fabulous gift boxes and cards.

I love to make bows on cards and gifts! This fun new Gift Wrapped Bundle in the new August-December 2020 Mini Catalog is my new go-to for cute paper bows!! The bundle includes the Gift Wrapped photopolymer stamp set with 12 cute stamps of bows and verses and the Gift Bow Builder punch with not only the bow, but the bow knot and a little itty bitty tag punch… adorable!

The Snowflake Splendor Suite is so easy to use to come up with stunning cards!

I just could not stop making cards last evening, and found I wanted to try every single sheet of the Snowflake Splendor DSP

In the heat of SoCal in August, what is more refreshing that working with darling little snowflakes! The new Snowflake Splendor Suite from Stampin’ Up!’s new August to December 2020 Mini is gorgeous and makes absolutely stunning cards and paper artwork!

Wow, the new Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Place Suite makes for gorgeous cards!! Whether you want to make a simple card with no stamping or a lovely 3D flower, this set will be your go-to for Christmas cards!

When preparing for one of my stamp camps or I am looking for stocking stuffers at Christmas, I love to find cute ways to bundle chocolate as gifts. For my stamp camps, the chocolate gifts are always a hit with my customers, and it is a subtle way for me to showcase the new DSP.
