Stampin’ Up! Tuesday Weekly Deals and a Card!

Stampin’ Up! Tuesday Weekly Deals and a Card!

Hey there! Thought I would pop in here this morning and give you the New Weekly Deals and a card!

First, the card:

Stampin_up_love_is_kindness

This card is one of my Online Class Cards this month, inspired by a swap I received at Leadership by Debbi Silberberg. We will be using  the Love is Kindness set with a "puff" technique for the blooms to give them more dimension.

Now for the new Weekly Deals!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Monday!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Monday!

Hey there. I've been helping Kimberly with baby Darcy, so my weeks have just been flying!

I tried this  post yesterday on Sunday afternoon, but unfortunately my daughter lives way out in the "sticks" so her internet is crummy. Now it's Monday morning when her internet is at its' best, so we'll see!

First, an elegant swap from Teri Wells. Teri used  Crumb Cake, Sahara Sand, and Soft Sky with touches of Whisper White for her swap:

Stampin_up_something_lacy_1

Up close you can see the detail from the Something Lacy background stamp, as well as the White Jute Ribbon and Sahara Sand 7/8" Lace Trim:

Next a masculine card using Guy Greetings from Lorraine Duran:

Up close the Rhinestones Basic Jewels were colored with the darkest of the Skin Tone Blendabilities:

Stampin_up_guy_greetings_4

Here's the supply list to shop in my online store:

Banner Punch

$12.95

Lastly, another masculine card by Denise Sullivan:

Stampin_up_guy_greetings_1

I love all the pattern choices in the Adventure Bound Designer Series Paper Stack, and the Basic Metal Button and thread pulled from the 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon give this card an "Industrial" look:

1797524_10152216933805070_1250170996_n

If you came from Stella MacKay's blog, Stellar Stamps, you have seen her fun creation! Love my friend Stella and love her creativity!

I chose the Best Year Ever Designer Series Paper for my Sale-a-bration accessory. I combined it with the "smile" stamp from the So You set from the Occasions Catalog.

The Best Year Ever DSP is so gorgeous all I added was a bit of embossing with the Large Polka Dot folder and one single Rhinestone Basic Jewel.

So You Smile February Project Sheet - Copy

Inside I used a sentiment from the annual catalog Big News set, as well as stars stamped in Coastal Cabana inside and on the envelope. Sweet!

My oldest photographer daughter, Jessica, did Darcy's first photo shoot in the hospital when Darcy was just 6 hours old!

Liam has met his baby sister and says she is "soooo cute"! I have him with me at my house while Kimberly is in the hospital recovering from her c-section. The little family will be reunited when Kimberly and Darcy are released tomorrow.

Since it's Tuesday, that means there are new Weekly Deals!

When all the baby craziness calms down I will be sending out Thank-you packets for everyone who has placed an order with me in January and February.

Stampin’Up! Weekly Deals and I’m Home!

Stampin’Up! Weekly Deals and I’m Home!

Hey there! I've been home for a couple of days from Orlando but this is my first chance to blog. After I blogged the Weekly Deals last week, I finished my swaps, anticipating heading out to Orlando for the Stampin' Up! Leadership Conference on Wednesday, January 28. It was not to be. I came down with the a tummy bug during the night and ran a fever most of Wednesday, so we rescheduled our flight for Thursday morning. We made it just in time to eat the lunch Stampin' Up! provides, and I participated in an organized swaps before I even cleaned my plate. (It actually was several days before I had enough appetite to even think about eating most of a meal.)

I was exhausted pretty much the entire time we were there, but I'm still glad I went. I had a chance to see several of my friends from across the country and even got to chat a couple of times with my friend Constanze Wirtz from the Netherlands. We met on the Stampin' Up! cruise last year. That's just one of the things I love about Stampin' Up!; the chance to travel and make new friends from across the country and around the world!

The next day I swapped with these girls, my Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop sisters!

Stampin_up_blog_hop_swap

l to r: Judy Garza, Patty Chenail, me, Janet Wakeland, Laura Milligan, Lee Conrey, Jodi Reinert. Hamming it up in the front is BJ Peters!

Thursday night Stampin' Up! hosted the Manager's Reception at Disney's Fantasmic! It is a nighttime show with water and lights, so I really couldn't get a decent picture, but it was fun. Thank you, Stampin' Up!, for always making us feel appreciated!

No Stampin' Up! event is without yummy treats! My downline, Linda Reaney, and I hammed it up with some of the Mickey-themed desserts Stampin' Up! provided:

Lemon Mickey tarts-

Micky lemon tart

Chocolate brownie Mickey-head-on-a-stick-

Chocolate mickey

Truth: I actually only ate the two little push-up cheesecakes on my plate as they were the only gluten-free item offered, but they were just enough and delicious!

For my local stamping friends, YES, the Birthday Bash Stamp-a-Stack for this Saturday IS A GO. This will be my only in-home event this month as my newest grandbaby is scheduled to arrive by c-section this coming Monday, February 9th. I will be helping Kimberly with the new baby, as well as big brother Liam, most of the rest of the month, so my posts will continue to be sporadic until things calm down at the beginning of March.

Today I'm headed to my hometown of Decatur, IL, to check up on my "big brother", Don. Don has had some pretty major health bumps in the road the past couple of months, and so Mark and I are taking the day to drive up to see him for a bit. It's about a 3 hour drive, so I'm taking some paper to cut to keep preparing for my Saturday class. Fortunately. I like to cut paper! lol!

Here are the new Weekly Deals, a day late, but great nonetheless. Go to my online store to order: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
