Above The Clouds

Above The Clouds is a new bundle coming in the new catalog!  I love this bundle so much!  First the stamp set is so stinkin' cute!  Second it's bundled with a balloon punch!  Who doesn't love a punch!!! Yay!!!! This simple card was easy and fun to make.  I also featured 3 of our new In Colors on this card.  First is Rococo Rose for the balloon. It's such a pretty pink!  Second is Seaside Spray on the clouds, it's a beautiful blue. Finally I used Pretty Peacock for the greeting, it's a beautiful teal-ish color!  I can't wait to plan some classes with this set!

Postcard Pals Facebook Live!

I'm so sad to see the Postcard Pals set leave this year. I have used this one a ton, I may actually keep it!  I don't keep many retired items but this is one that I know the kids love and I may use again sometime.  I made this adorable card.  To see the entire card and all the details check out my video below.

To A Wild Rose-Gorgeous!

The new To A Wild Rose stamp set has to be one of my absolute favorites from the new catalog!  I can't stop using it!  I paired it with one of our new In Colors for this card.  Check out the new Purple Posy!  It coordinates so great with Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape, it will be a color combo I reach for all the time!  To A Wild Rose is a three step stamp and each layer is prettier than the next.

There are dies that coordinate with this set.  They cut out the flower, leaves and that amazing stitched label.  I LOVE the 'blessed' greeting and spent some time fussy cutting that for some added detail.  LOVE!!!  This stamp set is created by Mary Ellen Byler who is a Stampin' Up! Million Dollar Achiever.  I can't wait to use this set more and more and more!  I just LOVE it!!  I have LOTS more samples to share with this set coming soon! These products will all be available in the upcoming Annual Catalog.  Can't wait?  Join my team in May and add these items in your starter kit!  Contact me for more details stamperrdn@q.com.

On Stage and NEW STUFF!!!

Last weekend I had soooooo much fun in Salt Lake City, UT for Stampin' Up!'s On Stage Event.  On Stage is a demonstrator only event where demonstrators get their first look at new products and hello the new catalog! We drove to SLC from Albuquerque, it was about a 10 hour drive. I had the pleasure of going with my BFF and fellow demonstrator Kim.

The drive up was a little sketchy but beautiful.  We drove through a couple snow storms and kept finding mountains that looked like this.  Beautiful!  The drive home was sunny and 70 degrees, a far cry from our drive up at 35 degrees!

We got there a day early and spent Friday exploring downtown and figuring out where we were going, and taking a quick road trip to the Stampin' Up! home office in Riverton, UT.

We didn't get to tour the building, they had announced that no tours would be allowed during On Stage, but we did get our picture taken with Stampin' Up!'s iconic rock at the entrance to the home office.  So fun!  

Friday night we got to attend Stampin' Up!'s leaders event CentreStage.  This is an event only for demonstrators that hold a certain title.  We were treated to dinner, a beautiful leather clutch and of course the catalog early!!  Whooohooo!!!

I was so excited that I got to share this experience with Kim.  We had such a great time!

Saturday was the On Stage event, our fellow Albuquerque demo friend flew in for the day for this event, her name is also Kim LOL.  I'm in a Kim sandwich! We had a great time stamping, learning chatting with some of the board of directors and of course oohhhing and ahhhing over the new catalog!

Donna Griffith from the home office was there.  She's super sweet and I loved getting to chat with her a little at the event.

Of course there was stamping and lots of new products.  One of the great things about these events is seeing the products in person.  Sometimes it's hard to see how amazing something is from a picture.  Seeing it in person is one of the best parts! There were tons of product display boards that showed new suites, DSP, accessories, colors, Memories and More and sooo soooo much more!!!  Take a look at all the amazing things in our new catalog!  Whooo hooo!!!  

I can't wait to get my hands on these products!  Especially the Dinoroar Suite!  It's my favorite for sure!  Now is a great time to join my team.  Demonstrators can see the new catalog now and we can preorder select products in May.  If you love to get new products early AND get a discount on them join my team today!  Signing up is easy you can do it at my website here.
I'll be back on Monday with some cute projects!!!

Thanks for looking, see you soon!!!!

Love What You Do Trifold

I love this card!  It's fun, simple and gorgeous!  It's a fun fold tri-fold card and our gorgeous Designer Series Paper does all the work!  Simply add a greeting at it's done! I started with a 12" x 5 1/2"piece of Designer Series Paper, score at 4", 8 1/4", and 11.  I made this card last week on my Facebook Live.  Check out all the details in the video.  You can shop my Online Store here and check back tomorrow I'll have TONS of stuff to share from On Stage!!

Sending Hedgehugs

I have a quick and fun card to share with you today.  I used my Sending Hedgehugs set for this card.  It's so cute!!  I love the stamped mushrooms on the bottom, the sweet hedgehog and the stamped wood panel background.  I love the pop of blue from the Night Of Navy gingham ribbon too!  It's an easy and quick card you can send to anyone!

Cards For Guys Class

A couple weeks ago I had an amazing and fun class featuring all cards for men.  I know that I struggle with masculine Cards but I always try to do a masculine card class at least once a year to break out of my own comfort zone.  This first card was inspired by a card I saw on Pintrest made by Lisa Pretto.  There was no direct link back to her blog but her card from Pintrest inspired me.  I love the Sheltering Tree Stamp Set in the Annual Catalog.  I love the vast variety of trees you can make with it.

The next card was made with the Let It Ride Set in the Occasions Catalog.  I am loving every card I make with this set. The more I use it the more I love it!

The next one is probably my favorite.  I love incorporating gift card holders into cards and this pocket from the Pocket Full Of Sunshine Set in the Annual Catalog just screamed for a gift card!  How fun!!!

If the last card wasn't my favorite this one sure is!!!  I used the Bubble Over Set from the Annual Catalog and matching framelits for this card but the fun isn't on the outside, though it is super cute!!! The real magic is on the inside.....

….We made a fun pop up card!!!  This pop up card is super simple! I took a piece of cardstock that is 1"x5" and scored every inch.  Adhere it into a square and attach two of the sides to the fold inside your card.  It's easy and fun!!!

Masculine class boxes

I have a really fun box to share today.  This box will be given away to all of my attendees tomorrow at my Cards For Guys Class.  The box holds a couple instant coffee's and the box is soooo cute too!!!!  I got the idea for the box from Julie, another Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, here.  I used her design for the box and just modified my measurements a little to fit the coffee.  If you want to recreate this coffee box follow Julie's instructions in her video and use these measurements: You'll need a piece of cardstock that is 5 1/2" x 7 1/2".  On the 5 1/2" side score at 5/8", 2 5/8", 3 1/4" and 5 1/4" (NOTE: You'll be left with a quarter inch tab on this side.  This is where your adhesive will go.  It's a tiny width for a tab, but I designed it specifically so that I could get 2 out of a standard piece of cardstock.  I used Tear Tape to hold my box together, any excess Tear Tape that doesn't fit on the tab just fold back on itself.). On the 7 1/2" side score at 5/8", 1 1/4", 6 1/4" and 6 7/8".
