UPDATED LIST WITH PHOTOS OF RETIRED STAMP SETS FOR SALE HERE!!!
Love & Sympathy
One thing I do at the stamping retreat weekend is make up a few sympathy cards to have on hand to send out. This was a very simple style to make, but I think has a dramatic look with the Basic Black, Whisper White and Crumb Cake color scheme.

I used Crumb Cake as my base and the Perfect Polka Dots folder on the front. I stamped the flower image from Stampin' Up!'s Love & Sympathy stamp set in Basic Black a couple times on the left, then the sympathy verse on the upper right side. The Whisper White is layered on Basic Black and that panel is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals. Very simple and understated…just like I think a sympathy card should be. Thanks for looking!
Don't forget…my HUGE RETIRED STAMP SET SALE is going on now! See the updated list HERE. I'm updating it frequently to add more sets and remove those that have sold. Thanks for your support!!!
LOTS of Stamps for sale!!!
I'm doing some MAJOR cleaning in preparation for my new studio cabinets to arrive! Since I'm WAY over budget, I've decided to let go of a lot of my retired stamp sets! I have GREAT prices on them. If you are looking for something in particular, please let me know! I may have it…I've been collecting for 10 years!
Sets are in really good condition, I'm not hard on them. Shipping is extra. Please email your zipcode so I can figure it for you.

Uh oh…
Well…I've certainly had my string of bad luck lately! I went to turn on my computer this morning and got the dreaded BLUE SCREEN…oh no!!! Currently, I am working on my laptop, but it doesn't have all the "stuff" that my other desktop computer had saved, so I'm slowly trying to recreate everything I've loaded to it. I'm just CROSSING my fingers that the computer doctor will be able to recover my files. Seems like everything I go to do is on that computer! I am SO getting one of those backup systems…as soon as I'm recovered! Amazing how much of my life is on there! Hopefully, I'll be able to share some new cards tomorrow!
But…it's TIME! Sale-a-Bration time! Stampin' Up! is giving away free product with every qualifying order of $50…$100 get 2…$150 get 3…plus hostess benefits and a DARLING little tote! ALL free with your order!

GUESTS: Choose one free product from the SAB brochure for every $50 you spend (before tax and shipping).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Create with Connie and Mary Occasions Edition 2012 has just started Week 2…showing off projects featuring the Sale-A-Bration Catalog! It's not too late to join! You'll get daily step-by-step tutorials, challenges and PRIZES and haven't missed a thing! Our website stays up to a year after the edition is over, too…so you can refer back to our projects 24/7! At $34.95 for over 36 project ideas…that is less than $1 per tutorial!
Flower Poinsettia
I've had this card done forever and have waited closer to Christmas to show it to you! To me, the Poinsettia flower looks so real…hard to believe it is made from simple cardstock! The step-by-step Poinsettia Flower pdf tutorial is available as my Online Ordering Gift with any $40 Stampin' Up! Online Order placed from now until the end of the year at my Stampin' Up! website! I'm working hard to earn that Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip to Fiji, you know!

Just a few details about the card itself. It is a base card of Real Red cardstock. I layered on a panel of green print from Holly Berry Designer Paper and then the glittery polka dot from the same package of designer paper. I used the Oval Frame Embossing Folder with Very Vanilla and cut it out. I stamped the Merry Christmas greeting from Delightful Dozen in Early Espresso on Wild Wasabi and punched it out with the Extra Large Oval Punch. I added the smallest pearls as accents in the two corners of the card. There is a vintage brad in the center of the Poinsettia.
Although I placed mine on a card, the paper Poinsettias would look beautiful as stand-along ornaments on the tree or on a tag for your holiday gifts!
So, again, any $40 or more Online Stampin' Up! order placed thru my Stampin' Up! Online website starting today through the end of the year will get my Online Ordering Gift, a step-by-step Poinsettia Flower Tutorial pdf showing how to make my Poinsettia flower!
Please allow 24 hours after your online order is placed to receive the pdf file.

I thought I'd share one of the cards from my Bright Hopes Stamp A Stack Class that I held on Monday night! It was one of my favorites…mainly because of the non-traditional Christmas colors! I borrowed the general layout from Mary Brown…switching up a few tihngs, like where I placed the greeting and the flower in the center of the tree!

The base of the card is Night of Navy. I added a layer of Wisteria Wonder that I ran thru the Big Shot with the Snow Burst Impressions Folder. There is a piece of Wisteria Wonder Patterns DSP in the background. I added a strip of Silver Glimmer Paper and then wrapped the Night of Navy 1/4 Grosgrain Ribbon around and adhered in the back.
The tree from Stampin' Up!'s Bright Hopes stamp set is stamped with Lucky Limeade on Naturals cardstock on the Ovals #2 diecut. I added the flower from Itty Bitty Punches in Night of Navy in the center with a small Pearl Jewel. It is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals on the front of the card. Finally, I added a Lucky Limeade banner with Merry Christmas. These colors just POP for me!
Got to run and finish up some projects for my Stamp Clubs tonight! AND…need to get my Challenge card done for tomorrow's Create with Connie and Mary challenge! Have a WONDERFUL day!
