Happy Hooray For 15!

November 6, 2020 Filed Under: Project Gallery

Today’s card is a celebration of Year 15 for me as a Stampin’ Up Demonstrator! It really is a Happy Hooray.

Last night all Demonstrators had the opportunity to join on online as all sorts of milestones were recognized and honored. While I was watching, I decided to use the color scheme and some of the designs from the Demonstrator Event called On Stage to make a super quick card celebrating my 15 happy years creating and sharing what I love! To learn more about my journey, click on the About tab above.

Today, we are in all day sessions learning about what’s coming up in new stamp sets and products in January! Whoo hoo! I will be able to share that with you very soon.

Here’s a “birdseye” view of my desk set up for tomorrow’s sessions. You can see where the design and color inspiration for the card comes from. And if you look close enough, you can see a sneak peek of some DSP, a stamp set and a punch coming in January! How terrific is that?

Here’s to a wonderful 15 years and looking forward to more!

Happy Haunting with Arrange A Wreath

October 30, 2020 Filed Under: Gallery, Project Gallery

Happy Halloween everyone! Today’s card is for the Halloween Diva who likes a little bling and sparkle. I have seen many Halloween cards using the Arrange A Wreath dies and I just had to do one. And with some of the fantastic sparkly embellishments Stampin’ Up! has this year, its easy to create the perfect card for the discerning, witchy diva!

The Arrange a Wreath is one of my favorite of the “all occasion” sets. I am finding that having something on hand that covers so many occasions is now a “must have”. When you have an all occasions set, you are ready for anything!

The beautiful Magic In This Night DSP paper is what makes this card. The designs are elegant and a perfect complement for some bling and sparkle. The designs are so elegant on some of the paper, I can see using this well beyond the Halloween season. Take a look at all the designs HERE!

I know Halloween will be different for many of us this year. So whether its a Halloween Parade, Trunk or Treating or a socially distanced candy handout from home, I wish everyone safe and happy fun for this Full Moon Halloween night!

Celebration Tidings for Magic In This Night

October 27, 2020 Filed Under: Gallery, Project Gallery

It’s time to mail those Halloween cards! And because we won’t be out roaming the streets in search of candy and other mischief, a Halloween card will be especially welcome this year. So ditch the candy, but not the mask and get your Halloween cheer in the mail soon!

Here is a quick card that uses the wonderfully spooky spider paper from the Magic In This Night DSP. The paper does most of the work with a few die cut spiders to make it really creepy. The Metallic Mesh Ribbon and Iridescent Pearls give it a little glitz and sparkle for fun.
