Stampin’ Up! Washi Tape Butterfly Birthday!

Stampin’ Up! Washi Tape Butterfly Birthday!

Good morning! Yesterday was a CRAZY day at my house! Just being away from my home for two weeks with three males still living there is insanity itself, so of course I've been de-cluttering and doing MASSIVE LOADS of laundry! In addition, I think I had almost all my stamping supplies pulled out at one time or another yesterday! I'm doing some stamp room re-organization along with getting ready for my Holiday Catalog Open House on Saturday, so it was a mess! But you know you generally have to make a mess to change and reorganize, so it's coming along!

Tonight I have a Stamp Camp for Kim Norris. Kim & I have been anticipating her party for a few months while we waited for Kim's new kitchen to be completed and some family events (Kim's & mine!) to progress. Kim has been watching my blog and Facebook page, picking out the projects she wants to make.

Today's card is an adaptation of the card I posted HERE from the Fiji sample boards:


Gingham Garden Washi Butterfly 1

I combined Gingham Garden Washi Tape with the Beautiful Butterflies Die. The Polaroid-look is very trendy right now, so I created the photo square withthe new Square Framelits!. The greeting is from Itty Bitty Banners cut with the Bitty Banners Framelits.


Gingham Washi Butterfly 2
The inside greeting is from Yippee Skippee. The smaller Gingham Garden Washi Tape butterfly was also cut with the same Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die. The washi tape makes it quick and easy!

Well, I have one more card left to create for tonight, so I need to get going!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Almost Home From Fiji! Did you know I now work at the airport?

Stampin’ Up! Almost Home From Fiji! Did you know I now work at the airport?

We've been virtually LIVING in airports for the past two days! Eating, sleeping, waiting, over and over. I am starting to feel WAY too at home here! I'm posting this morning from the waiting area at the D2 Terminal at the Cleveland, OH airport, but I want to share a story from yesterday at LAX.
Going home 4
No, I don't really work at the LAX airport, I'm just using the electrical outlet at this kiosk after the employee went home. It was located immediately next to our waiting area, so it was easy to just power up while doing a little sorting of my Fiji pics. What's really funny is that people started stopping as they were getting off flights and were asking me for information! REALLY? I'm wearing capris and a hoodie! Do I REALLY look like I work here? SERIOUSLY?????

I just kept on saying, "No, I'm sorry, I don't work here", to everyone who stopped by until suddenly this little woman from Peru came up and starting asking me in Spanish-Portugese-whatever-they speak in Peru about her flight. Well, I COULDN'T make her understand that I didn't work there, so when she waved her ticket at me, off we went to check the flight board. Turned out her terminal was right beside where we were so I directed her there. We were both SO HAPPY, she started saying "gracias" and patting my arm, so I started to give her a quick hug and she kissed my cheek! WOW! She really made my day! I don't remember her name, but I won't forget her anytime soon! Small miracles while you wait at the airport, huh?

It's almost time to board our FINAL flight to St. Louis, so I will close with this gorgeous card I received in the "Swap with Me!" sponsored by Stampin' Up! while in Fiji:


Stippled Oh Hello
All supplies are©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013 

This swap was created by Vicky Kahlandt, a lovely new demo friend from Utah with a lovely English Accent! Vicky combined Stippled Blossoms with Oh Hello and Tea for Two Designer Paper from the Occasions Catalog.  She cut the ovals with the Ovals Collection Framelits, easy peasy! Both stamp sets will be in the new 2013-2014 Annual Catalog beginning May 31, but the Tea for Two Designer Paper will NOT, so better grab some before it's gone!

You can go HERE to order TODAY!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Fiji Bound!

Stampin’ Up! Fiji Bound!

Today is going to be a looooong day for me! We fly out of St. Louis to Chicago at 1:20 p.m., then it's off to L.A. with about a 5 hour layover, then we fly out of L.A. at about midnight, arriving in Fiji in the wee sma's of the morning! Stampin' Up! will have a breakfast ready for us when we get there, and then I'll bet I will be ready for a big nap!

I am all packed and ready to go! My swaps are done and packed, safe in my carry-on along with my brand-spankin' New Annual Catalog! I've viewed the catalog online already, but I am saving a good long browse for the plane rides! yay!

Today I have my Fiji swap to show you. I made 26 of these, 25 to swap and 1 for Stampin' Up!

Note: all products used are ©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013 unless stated otherwise.

Fiji swap 1

At Leadership this past January, Stampin' Up! gave everyone in attendance this new catalog stamp set, Sketched Birthday, so I decided to create my swap with it! I chose Polka Dot Parade Designer Paper because it is CARRYING OVER into the New Catalog, so I decided to use Real Red and Marina Mist, which are two of the page colors, for my color palette. The images and paper are all punched with the Postage Stamp Punch. I embossed the Whisper White layer with the Chevron Folder, and added Silver Sparkle Dazzling Details for a little bling!

Here are some close-ups of the bling:

Fiji swap 3

Stampin' Up! offered two bottles of the Silver Sparkle Dazzling Details as a demonstrator incentive recently. I've always been a sucker for an incentive carrot! It's fun to be able to use a completely FREE product, which is another fun perk of being a demonstrator!

Fiji swap 2

Well, I must close for now and finish getting ready to go! My son, Troy, will be here soon and we will be on our way to a week in Fabulous Fiji!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

I am a BAD, BAD, BLOGGER!!!!

Good morning! Oh, my, my day completely got away from me yesterday! I stayed up REALLLY late the night before in order to view the Demonstrator Preorder List and Hostess Set Preorder List! Then I submitted my Preorder so I could expedite the shipment so it and the hard copy of the NEW 2013-2014 Catalog will be here before I leave for Fiji on Sunday morning! I NEED that catalog for the 10.5 hour plane ride to Fiji! (We fly from St Louis to Chicago, then Chicago to L.A. with a 6 hour layover until the chartered Fiji flight takes off!)

BTW, the you are gonna LOVE the New Catalog!!!!! You can trust me on this one!

I had a LONG list of errands to run yesterday to get ready for Fiji, and then just as I got home Liam and his Mommy & Daddy arrived for the evening! So no blogging, and I am truly sorry!

Note: all products used are ©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013 unless stated otherwise.
