Stampin’ Up! Magical Season!

Stampin’ Up! Magical Season!

Hey there! I'm getting ready to go to a wedding today, so I just have a few minutes to post this gorgeous card that was shared on a facebook group I am a member of for Stampin' Up! demonstrators.

With Robin Merriman's permission:

I LOVE this card!

She used the Magical Season #134777 Single Stamp cut out with a Chalk Talk Framelit, Smoky Slate, Pool Party, and Winter Frost Designer Paper, Festive Flurry Framelits with Silver Glimmer Paper, and a Vintage Faceted Button with Island Indigo Baker's Twine.

The final touch I have done in the past but had forgotten about is the Crystal Effects/Dazzling Diamonds "icicles" she added below the greeting! LOVE!

That's all for now. Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Snow Day for Debbie!

Stampin’ Up! Snow Day for Debbie!

Today (Saturday) I had the pleasure to introduce my dear sister-in-law, Debbie, to Stampin' Up! Debbie & I have been married to brothers for over 30 years, we were pregnant with our first three babies almost at the same times, and we have considered  each other our "partners in crime" for most of that time!

This weekend Debbie came up for a visit from her home in Franklin, TN, and went to a Stamp-a-Stack workshop with me. Deb has been watching me with my Stampin' Up! business for the past almost 11 years, but had never had a chance to actually stamp. She got to stamp today, ALOT! – 10 cards to be exact, and she loved it! She especially fell in love with the happy little snowman from the Snow Day stamp set. When we got home we designed this for her to make a stack of winter notecards:

Snow day for debbie

We pulled some elements from a few other Snow Day cards I had for her to see, then designed this simple card that is not really Christmas, but is more winter than anything else. The card base is Smoky Slate, layered with Whisper White and Winter Frost Designer Paper. Another layer of Smokey Slate, followed by the Whisper White layer for the snowman image stamped in Pool Party. We "stamped off" the ink on the snowflake stamp once on the grid sheet before stamping each snowflake. His smiley face and arms are Jet Black StazOn, his nose is Tangerine Tango, and his scarf and heart are Real Red. We are leaving the inside blank so she can use it all fall winter as a notecard for whatever occasion or reason she needs.

I really enjoyed sharing my love of stamping with her today! Sharing what I love is definitely one of my passions. Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Don't forget, there's only TWO days left to purchas the $25 Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Starter Kit! FIVE new demonstrators have already joined the first level of my team of Yes Mam! Stampers!, will you be next? Let me know if you need any help!

Stampin’ Up! Yes, Mam’s Aleta Heern & Sherry Peyton!

Stampin’ Up! Yes, Mam’s Aleta Heern & Sherry Peyton!

After featuring Linda Reaney and Angela Henson this week, I couldn't leave out a couple more great downline friends of mine, Aleta & Sherry!

First, Aleta Heern is my "oldest" downline member. By "oldest"  I don't mean her age, she is the gal who has been in my downline the longest, since February of 2005! Although I had several downline join my group before Aleta, none of those girls are still around. It happens. Stampin' Up! can fit your lifestyle and needs for a few years, and then things change and it's time to move on. Life is all about change. But while Aleta joined Stampin' Up! just to get the discount on her own purchases, she found stamping friends and now has a fun, loyal group she stamps with monthly. Her word for it is "play days". Sound great to me!

Here's Aleta's creation from our downline meeting this past Sunday using Joyful Christmas, Whisper White, Brushed Gold, Island Indigo, and the Encore Metallic Gold inkpad:

Aleta heern

Sherry Peyton is a more recent addition to my group, joining in September of last year. This is Sherry's second round as a demo. That's one of the great things about Stampin' Up! Just because you have to take a break for whatever reason, you can always come back!

Here's Sherry's creation using my favorite from the Holiday Catalog, Snow Day. Clean and simple, perfect for the beginning stamper but also great for a Stamp-a-Stack or to mass-produce for your Christmas card this year!

Sherry peyton 1

Sherry combined Pacific Point, Pool Party, and Whisper White cardstock with Winter Frost Designer Paper to create a perfect wintery background for the adorable snowman from this set. She added "pops" of red in his toboggan hat and scarf. Love it!

That's all for now. I have oodles to get done before my dear sister-in-law, Debbie, comes in for a weekend visit!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Linda reaney 1
First, Linda CASED a card that Shelli Gardner showed on stage during the Stampin' Up! convention this past July. She used the new Label Card Thinlet Dies, Northern Flurry Textured Impressions Folder, Petite Pairs stamps, Merry Minis Punch Pack, Silver Glimmmer Paper, Adorning Accents Edgelits, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Festive Flurry Framelits, Winter Frost Designer Paper, Silver 1/8" Ribbon, and Festive Flurry stamps.

Linda reaney 2
I just LOVE how these Card Thinlet Dies let you "flip" your card just by opening it a little bit!

Linda Reaney
Did you know that gold is supposed to be the new silver this season? Gold sure works for this card! Linda used the new Gold Foil Sheets from the Holiday Cotalog, Oval Collection Framelits, Keepsake Ornament stamps and Holiday ornament framelits,and a greeting from More Merry Messages, all matted on a Cherry Cobbler card base.

That's all for now! Today is the first day to register for the Stampin' Up! Leadership Conference in Houston, TX! yay! It's not until early January, but it's a really great event to attend! It will be fun!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Special Season Dazzling Dryer Sheet!

Stampin’ Up! Special Season Dazzling Dryer Sheet!

Hey there! I love the card I have for you today! I used the  Dazzling Dryer Sheet technique on it. It is especially gorgeous on Christmas cards with  trees and snowflakes.Lookie:

Special season 1

I started with a card base of Island Indigo, then layered on a piece of Winter Frost Specialty Desginer Paper, one of the single-sided sheets that has a foiled stripe in it.

I stamped the tree from Special Season with Island Indigo ink on Whisper White, then covered the entire layer with my Glue Stick. I then smoothed a used dryer sheet over the glue, really rubbing it into the glue. I trimmed the sheet even with the edges of the layer, then sprinkled the dryer sheet all over with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.

Before I layered the tree onto a piece of Silver Glimmer paper I wrapped it with a piece of Whisper White Organza Ribbon and a piece of Coastal Cabana  3/8" Ruffled Stretch Ribbon. I used Tombow Glue to adhere the ruffled ribbon on the organza, then added the bannered greeting from Special Season over both ribbons with Stampin' Dimesionals. I added a Vintage Faceted Button and a Rhinestone Basic Jewel for the final touch.

Special season 2
 I simply stamped "Christmas Greetings" and the pinecone cluster, also from Special Season, on the inside.

And that's it! I'm really loving this card! The Dazzling Diamonds Glitter clings wonderfully to both the mesh of the used dryer sheet and the glue that squeezed up between the dryer sheet threads!

One tip: the dryer sheet MUST BE USED. An un-used dryer sheet will not allow the Dazzling Diamonds to stick!

Thanks so much for coming by to see me today. Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
