Inspire Create Share 2014 Convention Swaps

I’ve been busy making swaps to share with other demonstrators at the Stampin’ Up! Annual Convention!  I love swapping with other demonstrators and getting new ideas.  

This first card I created used the new Flower Patch stamp set with new 2014-2016 In-Colors. This stamp set is quickly becoming one of my favorite!  It’s a new photopolymer stamp set which makes lining up stamps a breeze!

I also participated in an organized swap the last day of convention.  I used a technique called the Whitewash Technique for this card.  See my instructions for the Whitewash technique HERE.

Flower Memories

I have a quick card to share with you today!  This was one of my favorite cards that we created at card class in June.  It features the new hostess stamp set Bloom With Hope. I was immediately drawn to this set, even though I have many other floral sets.  I also pulled out two of my new favorite in-colors, Blackberry Bliss and Hello Honey!

Sweetbriar Rose

I’m just loving this new single stamp called Sweetbriar Rose!  It’s so much fun to color in the images.  I used our new Blendabilities in Old Olive and Rich Razzleberry to color in the image on this card.

I have some great news!!  The first 6 Blendabilities color assortments (as well as the Skin Tones Assortment, Momento Pad, and Color Lifter) are now available for you to order!!

What makes these markers so unique?  

  • The Stampin’ Up! rectangular barrel keeps your markers from rolling away!
  • Flat storage helps to maintain the life of each marker.
  • Each marker comes with a tip on each end: brush and fine. 
  • Marker tips are made of nylon, which is superior to polyester which can fray.
  • Color coded caps.
  • Stampin’ Up! markers coordinate wonderfully with our cardstock, and can be used with transparent sheets.

Here is a quick “how to” video on these new markers!

 

Order your’s today!

Open House Samples

I had a great time visiting with everyone who attended the New Catalog Open House on Sunday! Everyone who attended received a new catalog, a bookmark, and prizes for ordering! Of course it wouldn’t be a stamping event without a little stamping so of course there was a make-n-take for everyone!

I really wanted to showcase the versatility of the new Work Of Art stamp set.  All of these samples were created with a package of the Note Cards & Envelopes, one stamp set, a a variety of ink pads.  I will put the supply list at the end of the post.

Watercolor Thank You

I had a chance last week to sit down and play around with the new 2014-2016 In Colors! They are wonderful and coordinate so well together.  I can already tell that Hello Honey and Blackberry Bliss are going to be two of my favorites!  The ladies that attended my monthly card class last week also had the opportunity to create this card using two of the new In-Colors.  

watercolorthankyou STAMPING TIP: To get the three different “swoosh” colors on the front of the card I inked up my stamp from the Work Of Art stamp set in Lost Lagoon and stamped it three times on the card stock without re-inking it.  Each image then gets a little lighter as you stamp.  

You can now order products from the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog!!  Check it out HERE or send me a message and I would be happy to put one in the mail for you!  Don’t forget I’m having my annual Open House on Sunday June 8th from 1:00-3:00 in Johnson Creek.  You can come and pick up your very own copy of the new catalog and use the new products!  Please RSVP to me if you are planning to attend so I have enough supplies cut.
