Delicate Doilies and Sign Up BONUS!

July 17, 2011 By Connie | 1 Comment

WOW!!! So sorry that I've been MIA for a long time! I'm back from Stampin' Up! Convention and have to say that this is one of the BEST Conventions I've attended…they gave away SO much stuff that I was worried my suitcase would weigh too much! Of course, I didn't think and asked for wood mount…should have gone with the clear mount for less weight!

I purchased LOTS of great things from Memento Mall, too…I can never resist! I even have a SPECIAL GIFT from Memento Mall for the next THREE people who sign up under me as a demo for Stampin' Up! prior to August 30th! (EDIT: OOPS…forgot to tell you WHAT special gift! How about a pop-up Stampin' Up! logo mini trashcan for your workspace!)

With the July $99 Starter Kit Recruit Special going on, now is the time! You already get the fabulous starter kit for $99 AND a free $40 value Christmas project kit…we saw it at Convention and it is DARLING in person! And I'm anxious to SHARE my stamping experiences with you and maybe NEXT year you can go to Convention with me like my newest downline, Amy, did! Run on over and SIGN UP NOW!!!

I want to share a special card using the new Stampin' Up! Delicate Doilies stamp set that my Stamp Clubs did in June…I love the soft colors of Wisteria Wonder, Pink Pirouette and Melon Mambo! I also used the medallion from the Pennant Die and the new Ribbon Lace Border Punch! Oh a snippet of the Wisteria Wonder Ruffled Ribbon is also on there…don't forget that the Ruffled Ribbons are included in my RIBBON SHARES…check it out!!!

I'm exhausted, so going to sign off…but wanted to let you all know about my SIGN UP BONUS gift and the RIBBON SHARES again. If you mailed me during the past week and I haven't responded, please email me again. My phone was acting very weird since I upgraded to the new Verizon platform…sorry!

Bliss

March 11, 2011 By Connie | 1 Comment

I was playing around with some color combinations last week while I was at the stamping retreat and came up with this card. I love the bright colors using the Sale-A-Bration stamp set, Bliss!

I started with a base of Poppy Parade cardstock and ran the front thru the Big Shot with the Tulip Impressions Folder. Then I cut a piece of Sunny Garden Designer Paper and layered it on Pumpkin Pie cardstock. Over that I stamped the flourish in Stampin' Up!'s Bliss stamp set in Pacific Point on Very Vanilla. I punched a 1 1/4 circle from another pattern in the Sunny Garden DSP in the center. Then on scrap Very Vanilla, I stamped the flower in Bliss with Poppy Parade and cut it out. I placed it on the circle with Stampin' Dimensionals and added a Rhinestone Jewel to the center. I wrapped the Pumpkin Pie Taffeta Ribbon around and tied a knot.

I stamped A Little Something from Hodgepodge Happiness (a set in the main catalog that you can get FREE during Sale-A-Bration!) in Pacific Point and punched it with the Medium Oval Punch (still available to order #120908, $10.95…last seen in the Holiday Mini). Then I added a couple more Rhinestone Jewels in the upper corners.

Nice and bright and thinking of spring…even though we got an inch or two of snow last night!!! Come on SPRING!

I have another round of Ribbon Shares almost full and ready to order, INCLUDING the Seam Binding Ribbon available from the Occasions Mini! It has been VERY popular! Email me quickly to get a spot! You can find out more information about the Ribbon Shares I'm offering HERE!

Sharing creativity one stamped image at a time!

Here is a Gift Certificate Holder that I made for anyone that ordered gift certificates from me at Christmas Time! I used the Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding Ribbon on it so you can see how nice it lays!

I used Always Artichoke for the base of the gift card and rounded the front corners of the flap. I used the Deck the Halls Designer Paper and layered it on Cherry Cobbler cardstock. I also used the Scallop Trim Border Punch along the bottom of the Cherry Cobbler on the outside and on the inside flap. The stamp images are from Stampin' Up!'s Bells and Boughs (LAST DAY TO ORDER from the Holiday Mini!) and randomly stamped on the inside with Always Artichoke Classic Ink. I also stamped it on scrap Very Vanilla and watercolored with Always Artichoke, Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Write Markers and cut it out, then popped it up with Stampin' Dimensionals. I stamped Merry Christmas from the stamp set in Cherry Cobbler on Very Vanilla and punched with the Decorative Label punch, then sponged around the edges with Cherry Cobbler ink. Last I tied a ribbon bow from the 1/2 Seam Binding Ribbon in Cherry Cobbler for the front and attached the ends on the back. The element was placed on the front of the Gift Certificate Holder.

Don't forget! Monday, January 3 is the LAST day to order from the Holiday Mini! Don't let the favorites on your wish list get away! Place your order with me today!

Serene Snowflakes

November 2, 2010 By Connie | 2 Comments

Life is kind of crazy here…trying to get the initial planning done on the wedding. Since I'm in town I get to be more involved in the planning, which is FUN, but again time-consuming. We are sitting in pretty good shape now with reception location nailed down. Next up is Save the Dates to be designed and sent out!

So…onto my card! Here is a card that I made with my technique class last month. I got the idea from Dawn Olchefsky who calls it Clear Block Stamping. I love the subtle look of the block inked in the background! I switched up her fall card to a Christmas/Winter card!

The base card is Marina Mist cardstock and I layered on Night of Navy. The main layer is Whisper White. I inked up the square D Clear Mount Block with Marina Mist, then stamped off on scrap paper, then inked up the edges with Night of Navy ink and stamped on Whisper White. In the top left and lower right corners I stamped off with Marina Mist ink and the smallest snowflakes from Stampin' Up!'s Serene Snowflake stamp set. I stamped the largest snowflake full-strengh with Marina Mist and the next size snowflake full-stength with Night of Navy. Inside the large snowflake I placed a Silver Glimmer Brad for some sparkle! I added the greeting from Many Merry Messages with Night of Navy Ink.

I wrapped some Marina Mist Taffeta Ribbon around and tied a knot on the front. This is a pretty quick and easy holiday card to make! Not a lot of bulk on the front so it is easy to mail!

Well…I have to get in my Studio today and get some things done! Deadlines are creeping up on me! lol!

I have a couple spots left in my next Round of Ribbon Shares! Find more information HERE!

With the new catalog, Stampin' Up! has introduced a lot of new ribbon colors! So, I thought it was time for more Ribbon Shares. Each Group of Ribbon will be wrapped around 1-2 pieces of chipboard so your ribbon arrives wrinkle-free and organized.

Halloween Name tag lanyards and bag tags

October 8, 2010 By Connie | 1 Comment

I was inspired by Becky Roberts who made name tag lanyards for her guests. My upline, Candy, and I held a large Fall Festival Stamp Camp last weekend and I made these punch art name tag lanyards and matching bag tags for each of the guests. Of course…did I PHOTOGRAPH all of them together? No, I just never seem to remember to do that! They did look pretty cool hanging from the bags along with the bag tag identifier!

So…while watching the Ohio State football game last weekend, I was busy punching and adhering these together! The moon is the 2 1/2 circle from So Saffron. I sponged Tangerine Tango around the edges. I punched two Bats from Basic Black and added a Rhinestone Jewel to their heads. I typed out all the names on the computer, printed on Basic Gray, then punched with the Scallop Oval punch (I was going for a "dark cloud"…did I succeed?) This was my prototype, so I stamped the word Boo from the Charming stamp set in Basic Black, but decided not to use it. I cut lengths of 1/4 Pumpkin Pie Grosgrain Ribbon to hang around the neck and secured it to the tag with an Antique Mini Brad.

I thought they were a lot of fun…and people who attended really liked them!

Ribbon Shares going on now! Find more information HERE!
