Okay, so you may not wish to read ahead if you are easily offended, as this card is a little on the norty side.  BUT…. It’s not my fault!!  You see, my dear friend and downline Alison Barclay, planted the seed! (is there a pun there?)  On seeing the new stamp set Balloon Builders, she…

Here’s the third card in the set of 3 from our Succeed Weekly newsletter that Stampin Up sends to us. Again, instead of using the Cozy Christmas set, I’ve used Stampin Up Jolly Christmas as my main sentiment. I think I may be putting the Triple Banner Punch on my next order, my attempts at…

Here’s a look at the second card we made at Linc n Learn last week (from the Stampin’ Up! email we received)  This one should have featured more of Stamp Up Home for Christmas Designer Series Paper, but I was severely lacking in paper by this time so we had to make do with what…

I’m a little late with my entry to the Team Blog Hop, so I didn’t get to link in with the gals, but I wanted to create the card I had in my mind anyway.  This week is a sketch challenge, and I’ve used Stampin Up Versatile Christmas along with the die from Embellished Ornaments….

As a Demonstrator, each week we receive an email with articles to help us with our business.  Sometimes these emails contain stamping inspiration.  Wednesday morning one such inspiring email arrived, right in time for our final Linc n Learn for the year, so I decided that we’d make two of the three cards that were…

I sat down to whip up several Congrats and had stamped out all my balloons and cut them out with the matching framelits from the Celebrate Today Bundle.  The balloons where just too big for what I needed.  I spotted my new Stampin Up Balloon Builders stamp set that we received in our bags at…

Stampin Up Its My Party Suite is another new one coming in the Occasions Catalogue in January.   This suite contains a DSP Stack in 12 x 12 so you can make mass production Birthday cards, invites and party decor.  It also features matching Stamp Set, Punch Pack and Embossing Folder. But wait!  There’s more to…

Today I’m showing you another of the Make n Takes we did at the Melbourne OnStage.  This card uses items from the Stampin Up Going Places Suite.  There’s a stamp set, paper and an embossing folder in the Suite.  I can see many of the other manly stamp sets we have teaming up with this…

Well will you look at that!!  I managed to play in The Artful Stampers Blog Hop Challenge this week 🙂  This week is a Colour Combo and I’ve used Dove of Peace Stampin Up.   I’ll admit it is a tricky combo with that Cajun Craze thrown in.  I was going to do a flowery card…

Here’s a little sneak peek at some of the new products coming in the Occasions Catalogue in January (so far away right?).  This is one of the Make n Takes we made at OnStage last week.  Its from the new Stampin Up Botanical Gardens Suite.  Not originally on my radar, but I think it’s growing…

If you would like to have your own copy, I’ll start sending them out mid December, please fill out the…

This Merry Christmas Card was such a fun one to create.  One of the ladies from Linc n Learn (also a hobby demo) bought in some cards to share, and everyone loved this one.  I don’t have the framelits for it so Christine offered to bring it in for us to use and recreate the…
