I'm Back!! With Fun New Products to show You

New Products and Catalogs and a Brand New Year


As the new year rang in, I had so many good intentions, and now, here we are almost three weeks in, and I realize that I am just now starting to put some of those intentions into place. I suppose that is better than three months in, or never.  Our holiday back to Michigan was a whirlwind.  We arrived home, I put up the tree, put on the lights and decorated the best I could for the short amount of time I had.  I wrapped gifts and made sugar cookies, peanut butter cookies and grammies chocolate cookies.  We celebrated Christmas with our family, and then it was time to take the tree down and head back to Florida.  There is never enough time when we go back home. 

This past week my daughter, Haleigh, and her boyfriend Cam,  came down to Florida to visit us for a week.  It was a great time and we visited so many places while they were here, including the Loggerhead Marine Life Center, her dad's job, Disney, Sea World, Kennedy Space Center and the Manatee Lagoon.  We also visited a few new places to eat while they were here including Johnny Longboats and Dune Dog, where I had my very first Junkyard Dog.  Whew!  We are tired.  But we had an awesome time.

This is a picture of Haleigh and Cam when we arrived at the Juno Beach Pier.  We walked to the end of the pier, where it proceeded to downpour.  We were soaked when we finally arrived back at the car. 


While I was away, Stampin' Up! released a brand new catalog for Occasions and Sale a Bration.   Have you seen it??? If you have not, check it out here  Sale a Bration runs from January 3rd until March 31st.   For every $50.00 you purchase, you get to choose a FREE item from the Sale-a-Bration brochure.  And there are so many awesome items to choose from. 

 I have spent quite a bit of time over the last week creating product samples to share with you over the next few weeks.  I can't wait for you to see all of the new items.  It's a great time in the stamping world, indeed. 


Today's card features the Party Pandas.  This set can be yours for FREE with a $50.00 purchase.   Aren't they just the cutest?   I also used the brand new Myths and Magic Washi Tape.  It is sooooo sparkly. 

Here's what I used to create this card

  • Bermuda Bay card base cut at 8 1/2"  x 5 1/2"
  • Bermuda Bay card stock cut at 4" x 5 1/4"
  • Lemon Lime Twist cardstock cut at 1 3/8" x 1 3/8" (3)
  • Whisper White cardstock cut at 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" (3)
  • Balloons cut from Balloon Bouquet Punch (item #140609)
  • Myths and Magic Specialty Washi Tape (item # 145602)
  • Bermuda bay ink
  • Memento Black Ink
  • Party Panda Sale-a-Bration stamp set (item #147221)
  • stampin blends markers (bermuda bay light and dark)
  • small scrap of black cardstock
  • white embossing powder, versamark and a heat tool

Here's How I created the card:

  • Ink up the balloon image with bermuda bay ink and randomly stamp onto the bermuda bay cardstock cut at 4" x 5 1/4" (do not ink the bear part of the image).  Attach this piece to the front of the card base
  • ink up each of the bears with black ink and stamp onto the 3 pieces of white cardstock cut at 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" (you will only see the top part of their body)
  • Color the panda bear hats with the Bermunda bay light and dark stampin' blends markers
  • Attach the panda squares onto the 1 3/8" x 1 3/8" Lemon lime twist cardstock pieces and attach to the front of the card as shown
  • Stamp the Happy Birthday greeting onto the scrap of black cardstock using Versamark.  Cover with white embossing powder and set using the heat tool.  Cut the greeting into 2 pieces and attach as shown
  • Cut 2 balloons using the Balloon Bouquet Punch (I used bermuda bay and lemon lime twist)
  • To create the silver balloon, lay 3 pieces of the silver star myths and magic washi tape in a row onto a piece of scrap cardstock. Do not overlap the pieces, but make sure there is no cardstock showing between each piece.    Secure the pieces then cut a balloon from this piece using the Balloon Bouquet punch.  Attach the three balloons as shown, attaching the silver balloon with a dimensional

It's Sale a Bration Time at Stampin' Up!



Sale-a-Bration Is Here!!!

I know the holiday season just ended, and many regard it as the best time of the year, but in the stamping world, we are just entering THE best time of the year.  It's Sale-a-bration time!!!!   Every year, just once a year for three months, Stampin' Up! offers sale-a-bration where everyone can earn FREE products.  And the best thing about this sale is that there are no limits as to how many FREE products you can earn, and YOU choose every product you earn from the Sale-a-Bration brochure. 

But wait!!! There's more.  There is also a brand new Occasions catalog with LOTS of new products to choose from.  You can choose from brand new stamps, papers, kits, glimmer paper and stampin' spots.  I especially like the stampin' spots.  They are classic stampin' ink colors in smaller sizes.  This is a great way to sample several colors, and the small size makes them portable for when you take your stamping projects on the go.  Each spot measures 1 1/4" x 1 1/4" and comes in a set of four that includes bermuda bay, berry burst, peekaboo peach and pool party. 

Here are images of a few of my favorite products:
