Be Mine Banner

Good morning. I need to make a correction on yesterday's post. I will not be showing the projects until after Valentine's Day. I am a secret Cupid for a group from Stampin Addicts. Many of the projects will be gifts for her.

Today I will show the February banner. It says BEMINE. It uses Read Red cardstock for the background paper and the new Sending Love Specialty designer paper from the Occasions Mini. It also uses the new Sending Love Epoxy Brads in Pretty in Pink. I have 4 kits for sale for $20 each. If you are not local, please add $4.95 for priority shipping. Papers are not the same as I used what I had left to make the kits. Remember, for every $50 you order from either the mini or the idea book you receive one item free from the Sale-a-bration brochure. Call or email your order, or visit my online store here.

Now is a great time to sign up as a demonstrator in my Stampfinns group. Lots of extras during sale a bration. I can't wait to hear from you. Enjoy!

Valentine candy holders

Good Saturday afternoon. Once again a week has gone past and I've not posted. I finally figured out what was wrong with my camera and will be taking pictures this afternoon and will post the candy holders we made this morning.

I have a confession to make. When Stampin'Up! announced they were coming out with clear mount blocks for our fabulous rubber stamps I was not happy. I'd tried another company's product and found it very inferior. Well.....I bought several stamp sets to try so I would have knowledge for you, my customers, and I"M IN LOVE!!! They are wonderful and have helped so much in placing the image on the cardstock. It is still our fabulous rubber with a new "holder". Call me for a free demonstration of this super new product.

Valentine Love

Good afternoon. Once again a week has passed without a post. I'm finding I'm having trouble getting things photographed.

Here is one of the items we made in the Valentine class yesterday. Completely case'd from Patti Lee. I absolutely love her style and her projects are just so wonderful to make. We had a good time.

Just a reminder. Payment must be received by Wednesday to attend next Saturday's candy wrapper class. We will be making 4 projects for $12. Call or email today.

Enjoy!

Valentine Box Class

Good afternoon. I thought you might like to see what we are creating on Saturday. The cards were swaps from Leadership. The card on the right was by Dawn Rapsas. The other one did not have any information on it. If it is yours please let me know. We are using Real Red cardstock for the background on the box and the new Sending Love Designer paper for the accents. Your project may look different as you will have a choice of paper. Make sure I have your payment by Wednesday, as there are only 5 more spaces available. Enjoy!

Valentine card class with box

Oh my goodness. No posts in almost a week. I am so sorry. I have no excuse. However, I do have good news to share.

On Saturday, January 23rd I am teaching a Valentine card class with a box to hold your 8, yes 8 cards. The class cost is $15.00 and is limited to 6. Your payment will reserve your chair. Payment must be received by Wednesday, January 20th. You will make 4 cards of 2 designs plus the box. I can't wait to get my classes going again. Hope to see you on Saturday.

The picture today is of a Stampin'Up! card tree I bought at Leadership. I do not know if it will be in the new catalog.

Also, on Saturday, January 30th we are having our second annual candy holder workshop. You will make 4 holders plus the candy for $12.00. Payment must be received by Saturday, January 23rd and will hold your chair. Class size limited to 8.

Enjoy!!

Leadership candy swap

Good morning. Heading to the airport to return home from another fantastic Stampin'Up! Leadership conference and a super fantastic visit with my brother and his family.

Today's post is another of the candy swaps I participated in at Leadership. This is a case from my good friend Amy Bell. It uses chocolate chip and close to cocoa cardstock. Enjoy!

FREE leadership bag

Good morning. This is the fantastic bag we were given at Leadership. I love all the pockets. I will have more Leadership pictures later next week. I am headed out to spend the day with my brother and his family, whom I haven't seen in four years, and won't be back posting until Monday or Tuesday. I had such a good time at Leadership and would love to share how you can join me next year. Enjoy!

Leadership candy swap

Good morning. Leadership is almost over, I can't believe today is the last day. It has been so much fun meeting new people and connecting with ladies I've met over the years.

Todays post is one of my candy swaps. It was made with our new Sweet Pea Designer Paper from the Occasions mini and the matchbox bigshot die. They were so easy and each holds 2 giradelli candy squares. Enjoy!

Swap for Leadership

Good morning from WARM Phoenix! I am in Phoenix for Stampin'Up!'s annual Leadership convention. I spent yesterday evening doing make and takes and will post those when I get home. I met so many of my fellow StampinAddicts who were at a dinner last night. I love that site. To can find out more by clicking on the Stampin Addicts button on the right side of the site.

On to the swap. I wanted something simple because I wasn't going to make many of them. I am in a candy wrapper swap this afternoon and will be coming home with over 40 new projects for all of you.

The supplies for this card are: Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set, Stazon Jet Black ink, Whisper White and Pixi Pink cardstock. I added Basic Black 5/8" grosgrain ribbon and used my Big Shot with the Elegant Bouquet Folder and the Scalloped Heart of Hearts embosslet. Enjoy!

Snow letters for the Banner

Good snowy morning. The last letters for the Let it Snow banner are S N O W. I hope you have enjoyed this banner. I have 2 kits left, each $20 if picked up locally and $24.95 if mailed in a bubble envelope.

The next banner class will be Saturday, January 16th at 10:00 am. The class fee will be $20 and the kits will be the same price, with shipping extra. There are 5 spots available at this time. The papers will be Whisper White, Real Red, and the Sending Love Specialty Designer paper. There will also be at least one of the new Love Epoxy Brads.

Stampin'Up! has announced a slight delay in mailing out the Occasions mini catalog and the sale.a.bration catalog. You can view each on my Stampin'Up! website. For every $50 you purchase you get a free product of your choice from the sale a bration catalog. Contact me today to get your copy. Copies will be mailed to those of you who placed an order with me within the last 3 months.

I will be leaving on Wednesday morning for warm (I hope) Phoenix Arizona for Stampin'Up!s Leadership convention. I will be posting updates from there for the rest of the week. I can't wait to see the wonderful products we will have in the future.

Enjoy!
