New favs out of the Big Catalog

Isn't it crazy that with the current Idea Book & Catalog being out since last August that I am still finding things in it that I am falling in love with. One of which I would have never noticed the stamp that is used.

The first one uses the tree out of the Forest Friends stamp set. Which can be one of your FREE items during Sale-A-Bration.






















When you look at this adorable stamp set, you really do not notice the tree because the animals are so cute. Plus I love the color combination for this card, early espresso, cherry cobbler, tempting turquoise & very vanilla. The thank you words are from the curly cute stamp set. Just love the font of those stamps.

The second card uses a stampin' around wheel called take a sip. Plus the ala carte image tiny teacup.





















You could also use many images out of the stamp set that matches the wheel, morning cup. Just love these items. I actually don't know how I didn't notice them before now. The tiny teacup can also be one of your FREE Sale-A-Bration items.

Remember there is only 1 more month left of Sale-A-Bration. It ends March 31.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope your week is going well.

I know I know...

I know Valentine's Day is over. But I had just a couple more things for Valentine's Day that I wanted to share from this past weekend's regional. I hope that your Valentine's Day was a great one & that you got to spend it with the ones that you love.

The first thing I am going to share today is this cute cute Xs & Os banner.












It uses the awesome Love Letters designer paper & tons of ribbon & embellishments. Wouldn't this banner be a great decorative item that you could pull out year after year.

This next project is a neat way to give your valentine some yummy candy.






















This treat card uses the Sweetheart stamp sets & the awesome heart treat cups. The tab at the top actually is in between 2 layers of the real red cardstock, so you can pull that piece out to get to the candy without destroying the whole card. The wonderful color combination is real red, whisper white & tempting turquoise. The words on the tab are from the stamp set teeny tiny wishes.

The last project for the day uses the new petal cone die for the Big Shot machine. Found the occasions mini catalog. I will be sharing a few projects this week using the petal cone die. Just love it.
















I know the picture is not that great. It was made by someone doing a WOW workshop moment at Regional. Tons of other people were taking pictures at the same time & I thought it would be rude to turn it around for a picture from the other side as they were taking pictures. : ) So I will point out some of the great things used to make this cute gift holder. The cardstock for the base is rose red. The flower was made using the great new blossom petal punch. The petals have been embossed with the vintage wallpaper embossing folder & sprayed with smooch spray. The little scallop border above the flower is done with the ribbon border punch. Both the border & the flower are made out of pink pirouette cardstock. The ribbon on the back is very vanilla seam binding. The glitter is the champagne glass glitter. I will definitely be making a project using the champagne glass glitter because I got one FREE at Leadership & Regional. So they obviously are trying to tell me something. (smile)

Happy Tuesday to you all.

Happy Valentine's Day

What a weekend! I left friday morning with 2 of my wonderful team members (BIG shout out to Sheilla & Crystal) on a 8 1/2 hour trek to Minneapolis Minnesota. On Saturday we attended a Stampin' Up Regional Conference & man was it great. We had the best time. Although I can't say I have ever been to a Stampin' Up Event & not had a great time. (smile) So after driving home the 8 1/2 hours on Saturday night & getting home just a little after 1:30 AM, I was pretty beat yesterday. All I could accomplish was unpacking my suitcase & getting some laundry going. So today will start a week (at least) of sharing awesome things from that Regional. Plus this week (I promise) I will have my full class schedule out through at least the end of April.

Now on to the stamping...that is why you stopped by right? (smile) This first card is far from perfect but it is my little guy Robert's valentines for his party this morning.





















I got the idea from somebody else...I just can't remember who...sorry. The card is whisper white cardstock that I ran through the Big Shot with the tulip border embossing folder. I took the big heart punch and punched out 2 real red cardstock hearts & 2 real red glitter paper hearts to form the butterfly wings. The words are from the teeny tiny wishes stamp set & they are stamped in real red (Robert "helped" with this). I glued the wings down using the anywhere glue stick & next attached the smarties with glue dots. Just love it. Plus it was simple enough a 4 year old could "help".

This next project was done at regional by our very own Shelli Gardner, CEO & Co-Founder of Stampin' Up. She said they were her Valentine's Day gifts for her kids. It is an insert for our chunky frame.





















Isn't it absolutely beautiful. There are so many products & layers on here that I don't think I can even begin to list everything. So I will just try to list some of my favorites. On the crumb cake base layer, it has been run through the Big Shot with the polka dot embossing folder & sprayed with smooch spritz spray. She cut the old olive seam binding ribbon in half to make it's width smaller for her bow. On the chantilly lace ribbon she cut off the very bottom to shabby up the bottom & the sides. She used 2 of my favorite embellishments, antique brads & the key trinkets. Just love the whole thing. Wouldn't that be a great gift for someone to display year after year. So while we are on the subject of Shelli. Here is a picture of myself & team members with her on Saturday.














Thanks so much to Shelli for taking the time to take a picture & meet Crystal & Sheilla who were attending their 1st Stampin' Up Event.

I hope you are all having a wonderful Valentine's Day. Try not to eat too many sweets.
