Earlier this week, I held a card class with my meetup group (if you are in the Seattle-area, I’d love to have you join us!). I was using convention displays as inspiration for the four cards we were going to be making; but after designing the first 3, I decided that my 4th card was…
Well, today is my day to photograph some of the recent projects I’ve made to share with you; so while I work on that, I thought I’d share with you a few more swap cards I received at convention. These were all cards that when I saw them I just had to trade for them. …
When looking at card samples online and at events like the Stampin’ Up! convention, its easy to be drawn in to the “WOW!” cards. You know, the ones that surely took someone multiple hours to make and look like they should be hung on a wall as art and you could never bear to throw…
I don’t know about you, but I LOVE stamp sets that go with punches. See I love my punches (you can never have enough punches), but when you can stamp cute images in different colors and textures and then can punch them out instead of cutting them out by hand – Brilliant! That is why…
Well, happy August everyone! Can you believe it?! But with a new month, comes a new promotion – and who doesn’t love a fun deal? Pretty, Pretty Paper Promotion! For the entire month of August, you can stock up on your favorite designer series papers and when you buy 3 packages, you get your…
Whew! Nothing like a deadline to get me to hurry up and post a card I made this week for a challenge the the Late Night Stampers yahoo group. Each week they post some kind of project challenge, and this week sounded really interesting: Challenge 131: Only use white in your project except you can…
So, if you’ve seen my blog for a while, you know that I like to offer designer paper shares or designer paper samplers. This is a great way to get to try out a TON of paper patterns for a fraction of the cost. Well, since Stampin’ Up! is offering a special during the month…
I am always so amazed and inspired by the swap cards I get at convention. From the cards that make you go “WOW!” to the cards that are so simple to make that I realize you don’t have to go over the top to make a striking card. I started taking pictures of some of…
So, if you’ve never been to a Stampin’ Up! event, let me fill you in on an addicting activity that usually happens called “swapping”. See, the first couple of times I went to a regional event or convention, I was told to bring some card fronts to trade with other demos…so I’d bring like 20…….
Alright, if you’ve been on the fence about taking advantage of this awesome deal, just a reminder that you only have one week left! Whether you are interested in earning extra money to support your crafting, looking to start your own business, or just want a discount on your stamping supplies – this is an…
So as I was sorting through my photos from convention, I ran across a few more pictures that I took of fun projects and inspiration to me that weren’t even officially part of convention. :) So, this post will be a bit photo heavy, but I wanted to share with you some of the amazing…
You feel like you are doing so much while you are there at convention and then all of the sudden it is day 3! There was so much to see and do and it all was fantastic! I wanted to share some highlights from my last day with you. And don’t worry, I’ll be posting…
