Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Hello Spring


 Welcome to our Paper Pumpkin Possibilities blog hop as we share alternative designs using the February kit Hello Spring.

See the Hello Spring kit below as it was designed to be used: 
Plant the seeds of happiness with these lovely garden-inspired cards.
• Makes 9 cards: 3 each of 3 designs
• Precut pieces with bronze foil
• Unique spring-themed envelopes
• Coordinating colors: Basic Beige, Bubble Bath, Lemon Lime Twist, Lost Lagoon, Old
Olive, Petunia Pop (Classic Stampin’ Spot)


I loved the stamps and the color combo of Old Olive with Petunia Pop so I was happy to start stamping. Oh! and the "Spring Is in the Air Dies Add-On" (#166237 ordering is exclusive to subscribers) was super fun to coordinate with the chive blossoms and stems.


I pulled out my Petunia Pop card stock and discovered this layer was already embossed with the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder.  So it is the 4" x 4" layer behind my stamped layer. I covered the right hand flap with the 1- 1/4" x 4-1/4" layer of Petunia Pop cardstock.


I stamped the texture image along the interior top to create a coordinated touch.


Here you can see the top-down view of the card.  The card base is 11" x 4- 1/4" and it is scored at 4- 1/4" from one end and then 1- 1/4" from the opposite end. 


It was so fun to use this bright and cheery Petunia Pop color today while I enjoyed the brilliantly blue sky and warm sunshine.  It's a needed "hello spring" message after the snow 10 days ago!

Join the Fun with Me!


I have had so many joys from being a demonstrator and gratitude for my various experiences.  I wanted to share with you my top 10 Stampin' Up! joys:
  1. Our Starter Kit
  2. Friendships that I have made through my team and customers
  3. Demonstrator meeting each month to share creativity
  4. Discount on all of my craft products
  5. Pre-order early access to products before catalogs are released
  6. Special groups to share and connect over creativity
  7. Recognition and income
  8. Special events
  9. Earning travel with Stampin' Up!
  10. Training for personal growth

Our Starter Kit is always a great savings and wonderful way to start crafting or get reinvigorated with fresh supplies in your craft room.

Our Starter Kit has a special promotion until the end of February and I would love to welcome you on my team.  There are no obligations to build a business, risk or penalties to being a demonstrator.  Every Demonstrator has access to a 20% product discount or commission as soon as you order your Starter Kit. 

Here is a peek at our February Demonstrator meeting and our fun time together.  My team is from many different states so they aren't all able to attend in Boise, which is why I schedule a monthly Zoom meeting.  I offer an in-person meeting that includes Demonstrators from any team as many people relocate to our area and want to find community.  I love to see the friendships that blossom in our group as we share and care for each other. 

These are just a few of the lovely projects from our Show & Tell table: I ask everyone to bring their projects and show us what they have made.


I display cards from my card swaps with other demonstrators across the country, as well as from my team swaps.  It is very inspiring to see designs from a variety of styles of crafters.


These are a few of the door prizes that are awarded.



In February we made 5 card designs and these are 3 of the cards that we made.  The Make and Take Projects always feature a new bundle, this month we created with the Memorable Blooms bundle. 


We have the kindest and sweetest friends that come to our meeting. 


Stamping together gives us time to chat and share about life and learn tips from each other.


I hope you see that our community of Demonstrators is welcoming, fun, and inspiring.  Our Starter Kit is your invitation to come join us and share fun with us!  There are 2 options that are extra special during Sale-a-bration that you can customize with your preferred products and you get FREE shipping.   I hope you will join me and order your Starter Kit today:

Option 1: Get $125 worth of product PLUS a choice of two Stampin’ Write Marker Assortment packs AND the Handmade Designs Cling Stamp Set (an exclusive stamp set designed to work with the markers). That’s a $216 value for just $99!

Option 2: Get $125 worth of product PLUS an additional $30 worth of product when you join Stampin’ Up! That’s a $155 value for just $99!

You can go build your Starter Kit now and be ready to join me at my March Demonstrator meeting.  Contact me if you have any questions, I am so happy to share my experience with you and find the best option for you.

ICS Blog Hop More to Sale-a-brate

 


Welcome to our Inspire, Create, Share blog hop featuring our fun 
Sale-a-bration products.  We only have 15 days left, February 28th is the last day of our Sale-a-bration promotion.   

I chose to feature these 2 products: the Fruit Salad Designer Series Paper and the Documenting the Day Stamp Set.  These are both Level 1 Options that are free with a $60 US product order.




I designed this for the card swap at my Demo Meeting this month that was themed on Sale-a-bration products.  I love that these stamps worked well on my card, even though they were designed for scrapbooking and memory keeping.

These are the same design but half of my swap cards have this Granny Apple Green graphic layer. 


And the other half have this Daffodil Delight graphic print layer background.  I used a Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends pen to color our Antique Pearls to make pearls that color coordinate with the Daffodil Delight stamped sunshine.


Don't miss out on the new products added to February's selection of Sale-a-bration.  There are 11 more products added from our regular product selection.


I also used the Fruit Salad designer series paper to make cute tags to  decorate my team recognition prizes.  I used the Keeping Tabs bundle from the Annual Catalog to create my sentiment label on the tags.
 

Recognition deserves BLING so I sprinkled Rhinestones onto these tags to add sparkle and shine.  I think that these tags look very happy and special for my top 5 team members in January.


So check out these projects from my friends and then start making your shopping list!  Please click on the names listed below:

And there is a coordinating Mixed Media Florals Memories and More Card Pack.
