I am an Independent Demonstrator for Stampin Up. I love to stamp, and spend as much time as I can stamping and creating. I love to share what I am working on with others, and giving the things I create to others is the best part of this hobby.

Happy Saturday everyone. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It has been a while since I have posted anything, but not due to lack of</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
desire to do so! Life just got way busy for awhile. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am participating in a team challenge with my Stampin Up team </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
DOstamperstars, <span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;">#DOswts310</span>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This challenge was to create a card with a chevron fold. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is something that I had never seen or heard about so it was a </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
good challenge for me. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was actually a fun challenge. The fold is not difficult at all, like I </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
thought it was going to be. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All products are from Stampin Up.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used the All My Love designers series paper which I love.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Lovely Lipstick and Crumb Cake colors go so well together. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used the small flower from the stamp set Bloom By Bloom, the Thank You</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
sentiment from Humming Along, and gold pearls for the center of the flowers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love the way the card turned out and will definitely use this fold again. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope you like it and will try it yourself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Have a good weekend and happy stamping!!!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome everyone to the Thursday Challenge!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This week it is all about punches, and Stampin Up has some great ones. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was an easy challenge for me as I really like using the punches. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Punches are a quick and easy way to step up all of your projects. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I needed a thank you card for my sister who has been</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided to punch out 2 cats and labels making one of them</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
out of black to create a shadow effect. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Adding the Decorative Ribbon Border added a unique touch to a </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
somewhat simple card.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using the Cookie Cutter Builder punch allowed me to add a heart to the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cat's collar.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was a very quick and simple card, but a very fun one to make.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope that you try it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Be sure to click on the link on the right side of my blog to purchase </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome to another Thursday Challenge with the Stars!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This weeks Home Sweet Home inspired many different ideas for me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I finally decided that I would use the new Buffalo Check stamp set (#<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "proxima_nova" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: -webkit-right;">147794)</span>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love plaids and this fits right in! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also recently purchased the Mossy Meadow ink pad (#<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "proxima_nova" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: -webkit-right;">147111 </span>love our new ink pads!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so decided I would use it since it went w/the Festive Farmhouse DSP (#<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "proxima_nova" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: -webkit-right;">147820)</span> that I</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
was thinking about using. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the Thanks from the Warm Hearted Stamp Set that is a </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Stamping Rewards set (#<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "proxima_nova" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: -webkit-right;">147777)</span>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One thing I have not done yet is to post a card for the simply stamping </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
challenge Sarah talked about at On Stage. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided I use make this card a #simplestamping card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made the banner using my Banner Triple Punch (#<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "proxima_nova" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: -webkit-right;">138292</span>), and used some</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
left over Paper Pumpkins rhinestones for embellishments.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As hard as it is for me to do simple stamping, this was actually fun</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and easy. Guess I'll have to try making more of them!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you will try some simple stamping like this, and you can</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
purchase all of the items used on this card (but the paper pumpkin rhinestones) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
from my online store using the link to the right. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Holidays everyone!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Welcome to another Stars Challenge! This is a sketch challenge, and it was really so simple. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have been having so much fun with all the fun new papers from the Holiday Catalog, It </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
makes it hard for me to choose what I want to do. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For this challenge I used the new Frosted Floral Specialty Designer Series Paper.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It has a beautiful sheen to it that makes the cards look so elegant.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All of the supplies are from Stampin Up. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Shimmery White cardstock for the base cut 5 1/2 by 8 1/2, scored at 4 1/4.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Mossy Meadow cardstock cut at 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, and another at 1/4 x 5 1/4.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I cut the DSP at 1 and 1/2 x 5 1/4, and another piece at 2 1/2 x 5 1/4.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is double sided paper and I just turned one side of the paper over to reveal the</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2nd coordinating design.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I butted the 2 matching pieces of DSP up against each other and glued them</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to the 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 piece of mossy meadow cardstock.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then layered the 1/4 in strip of mossy meadow right over the seam. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Stamped the Thinking of You in black Momento ink. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Very quick and easy, and so fun to make.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And best of all, all of these supplies can be purchased in my Stampin Up store</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
by clicking on the link on my blog page. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hope you enjoyed the card, and may want to make one yourself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This weeks challenge inspired me to focus on both flowers and fall</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
colors. I love making flower cards, and these fall colors really speak to me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I chose to use the following Stampin Up products: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Grapefruit Grove cardstock cut at 4 1/4 x 11in, folded at 5 1/2in. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I layered it with a piece of marbled DSP from the Petal Promenade DSP cut</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
at 4 in x 5 1/4 in.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That DSP also includes several sheets of paper with individual designs</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that can be cut out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I cut one of the rectangles out and using the Thanks from the Warm</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hearted stamp set, stamped it in the center. If fit perfectly. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I layered the rectangle onto a piece of Galvanized Metallic paper </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
cut at 1/4 in larger. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then layered it onto the marbled paper using dimensionals.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The bling is the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and Wink of Stella glitter. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was an extremely easy and fun card to make!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope you will try it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Be sure and click on my link to take you to my store to </div>

This weeks challenge is all about color. I love this combination. It is perfect<br />
for Halloween, which is the first thought that came to my mind.<br />
I love the new purples by Stampin Up, Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape.<br />
I just received my Cauldron Bubble stamp set, but unfortunately the the die cuts<br />
are on back order requiring me to fussy cut, but it was not difficult to do.<br />
I actually enjoyed doing it.<br />
I started by using a piece of Gorgeous Grape cardstock cut at 4 1/4 x 11in.<br />
It is scored at 5 1/2in and turned on it's side to open on the right.<br />
I layered a 4 x 5 1/4 in piece of Toil and Trouble designer series paper.<br />
I then layered a piece of Gorgeous Grape and Pumpkin Pie cardstocks<br />
cut at 2 x 3 1/4 ins.<br />
The horizontal strip of striped designer series paper is actually part of one<br />
of the sheets of paper.<br />
The fussy cut witch and cauldron are then placed using deminsionals.<br />
The sentiment Happy Halloween is from the coordinating stamp set.<br />
I added sparkle by using the black rhinestone jewels.<br />
All products by Stampin Up.<br />
What a fun card to make! If you do not have this bundle yet hurry and get it,<br />
So much fun for the holiday and not scary at all. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This weeks challenge was a simple one, but those are the ones I </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
seem to struggle the most with. It took several attempts but this</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
is what I finally came up with. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used all Stampin Up products: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grapefruit Grove Cardstock</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Stripes Embossing Folder</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Very Vanilla Cardstock</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bring On The Presents Stamp Set</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All The Presents Thinlets</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grapefruit Grove Inkpad</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Faceted Dots</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Glitter Enamel Dots</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Christmas Washi Tape from the new Holiday Catalog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I like the end result. I did not put a sentiment on it so that I could</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
put the appropriate one on it when I am ready to use it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the effect of the dry embossing with the Stripes Embossing Folder. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The washi tape added a little shine, and the glitter enamel dots</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
add sparkle. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used deminsionals on the very vanilla layer to help it </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
stamd out a little more. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This challenge was great practice for me to learn how </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to make simple and clean cards. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

This is my first challenge that I have participated in. I hope I am getting it </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in correctly!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love the Stampin' Blends. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love the Farmhouse Christmas Stamp Set and Dies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also used the Festive Farmhouse Designer Series paper. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All can be found in the new Holiday Catalog which is so</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
exciting! It is filled with lots of new items to play with. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First I used Very Vanilla cardstock and stamped and die cut all </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my images. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then I colored them using the Stampin' Blends. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My card base is 5 and 1/2 by 4 and 1/4.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I layered a piece of Cherry cobbler cardstock 4 x 5 and 1/4</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and Garden Green cardstock 3 and 7/8 x 5 and 1/8.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Topped that with the Festive Farmhouse paper cut at 3 and 3/4 x 5.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I use red and green twine to wrap around those layers and tied a bow. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is then attached to the base cardstock. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All of my images were attached using snail or glue except the house </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
which is on <span style="background-color: white;">dimensionals</span>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<msreadoutspan class="msreadout-line-highlight msreadout-inactive-highlight">I attached bows and snowflakes from the Santa's workshop enamel shapes. </msreadoutspan></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<msreadoutspan class="msreadout-line-highlight msreadout-inactive-highlight">The greeting comes from the Farmhouse Christmas stamp set. </msreadoutspan></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<msreadoutspan class="msreadout-line-highlight msreadout-inactive-highlight">It was a very fun card to make, and I hope you will try making one too. </msreadoutspan></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These are two of the cards I created from using the August </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Paper Pumpkin kit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All products used are by Stampin Up. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Paper Pumpkin Kit includes everything you need to complete</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the cards. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
August kit included:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Blissful Blooms Photopolymer Stamp Set</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Blackberry Bliss Stampin Spot</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">10 card bases and envelopes</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3 Laser cut vellum sheets</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1 sheet of silver foil tags</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4 yards of bakers twine</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
75 Dimensionals</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
75 adhesive dots</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On my alternate card I also used Stampin Up Rhinestones Basic Jewels.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also made sure to stamp the flowers on the inside of the cards and on</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the envelopes. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These kits are amazing!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I get them every month and I love being surprised by what is in them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They are good kits to have on hand for when your mojo gets stuck.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I don't know if you have those days but I sure do. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They are also good for those times when you need a quick card to </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
just put together.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was a rainy weekend where I live, so I had a good excuse to stamp away!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Happy stamping!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A friend has asked me to make her</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
some get well and thinking of you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
type cards, so it gave me an </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"excuse" to use my new stamp sets</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and inks. The new in colors, stamps,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
dies, and embellishments in the new catalog</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
are to die for!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This stamp set is one of their distinctive</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
sets which are very realistic looking.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On this card I used a technique I</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hadn't used in a while called masking.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the end result.</div>

I thought this card was such a cute</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
whimsical type card. It is a perfect</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
card to send to just say hello. I stamped</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and fussy cut the flowers, and then</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
used Wink of Stella. I then used </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
dimensionals to pop them up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The enamel dots and die cut hello</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I have had this stamp set for a while</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but unable to play with it until</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
now. I love the uplifting sentiments</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that come with it, and the sketchy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
images. I have someone in my</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
life that has been struggling, and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think this may make her smile.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy stamping!</div>

I love the High Tide stamp</div>

set. I also love to do masking</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and 2 step stamping. Was</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
to make.</div>

Have a great weekend everyone!</div>
