Cute gift!

A couple of weeks ago I did a card party for a group of girls that love to get together and chat and catch up.  Instead of going out to a restaurant, they have me come over and I bring all the card supplies and they make cards.  It's a great evening.  This time they were celebrating Cristina's birthday.

 

So, she's now received her shipment of stampin' supplies and she wanted to make a thank you gift for her friends.  She bought them all little dazzling details and look what she made!

 

 

I'm so impressed!  What a great idea and so thoughtful!  Love it! I love my job as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator!  I get to help people enjoy time together and inspire creativity and foster friendship.  If you want to experience the Stampin' fun, contact me so I can help you decide the best way to enjoy stamping with me.

sale-a-bration almost gone...

The once a year, fabulous sale-a-bration promotion is amost gone.  Only one week left!  I know many of you have already placed your $60 order to get your free stamps and accessories but if you haven't, make sure to do so before they are gone! 
Here's a couple ideas to help your inspiration:
This one uses pool party cardstock and the everyday enchantment dsp and brads (sale-a-bration exclusive!!)

This one is a super simple one using the beautiful fresh vintage set in blushing bride.  The blushing bride colour along with it's 2010 in colour teammates, pear pizzazz, poppy parade, peach parfait and concord crush will be gone very soon so order your cardstock and refills now before they sell out in May.

I'm STILL loving that pleated satin ribbon!

Still saleabrating

Here is a couple of leadership swaps I received showcasing the beautiful everyday enchantment dsp
Thanks a lot to A Dobbs and J Ramsey for sharing your swaps!

A swap and a shaker

Just thought I'd share a swap I received that I thought was neat and a shaker card that I did at a recent club meeting.
First the swap.  It uses a catalogue set called Language of Friendship.  This set will be available as a sale-a-bration pick starting tommorrow.  I thought it was so interesting how they placed the bird in the stamped greenery.  I also liked how they used the new punch that goes with the mixed bunch stamp set and layered the oval punches on top.

 This card was created from my brain.  I was desperate to play with the new everyday enchantment dsp and I wanted to show my club girls how the shaker frames work so this is what I put together.  Isn't it great how the fresh vintage stamp set matches with the dsp so perfectly?  You almost can't tell that it's a stamp...looks almost like the paper underneath that shaker frame.  The sentiment is the curly cute set.  Of course I had to add some of that new pool party seam binding.
