Stack-a-Stack Samples - Birthday/All Occasions #2

Here are the other 2 cards that we made last week in the stamp-a-stack class. These are a lot of fun and a great way to build your "stash" of cards to be used when needed. Any of these cards can be used for other occasions, just by changing the greeting and message. Hope you enjoy them.

The butterfly card layout was inspired by fellow demo, Melissa Huie...thanks Melissa for sharing.
The masculine card was "cased" from the 2009/10 SU Idea Book and Catalog (pg 111).

Stack-a-Stack Samples - Brithday/All Occasion

Hi friends...we had a fun time this weekend at the stamp-a-stack. We made three (3) different cards that I will be sharing with you over the next couple days. On each of the cards, you can change the sentiment and use it for an all occasion card instead of birthday! Hope you enjoy them and next time, don't miss out on the class! Watch my calendar (see column on the right) for more classes to come in the near future.

Vintage Vouge Card Sample

Hello my stamping friends. The card sample I have for you today is one that I just completed for a swap with some awesome demos from the Klompenstampers group! Thanks girls...I love the cards I got.

I used the new Vintage Vouge stamp set, found in the Occasions Mini catalog (pg 26). I also used the "clear mount" rubber stamp version available for the first time ever, from Stampin' Up! I am really liking these stamps, but still love my wood mount too. What's a girl to do??

I also used the new textured impressions folder "Perfect Polka Dots", from the Mini (pg 35) and the flower center is a rhinestone "circle" brad from the "ice" collection, in the IBC (pg 179).

Stampin' Up!'s Haiti Relief Efforts...

Hey, friends! One of the things that makes me most proud of being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is the history of Stampin’ Up! and my fellow demonstrators’ in making a difference in the lives of others.

This has been shown so many times over the past several years that I have been involved with this great company. When terriorists attacked the Twin Towers, a tsunami struck Indonesia, a hurricane destroyed New Orleans, wildfires ravaged Australia and on a smaller scale, a rodeo cowboy was injured at an event attended by thousands of SU demonstrators…Stampin’ Up! and it’s demonstrators have stepped up and showed their commitment to making a difference and this tragedy is no different.

The executives at Stampin’ Up! were not at all surprised at the number of calls, e-mails and other inquires they have received from demonstrators across the world, on how and what we can do to help! So here is the plan:

From now until February 28, 2010, $2 from every “I {Heart} Hearts” stamp set sold, will be donated to the American Red Cross’ Haiti Relief and Development Fund. The Red Cross is already well-established in Haiti, and this money will be used to provide immediate relief and long-term support through supplies, technical assistance and other support to help those in need.

If you want to help out, place your order for this special stamp set, using the numbers below.

Contact me or use my online store today!

118571 - I {Heart} Hearts clear mount set $18.95 (block D recommended, 118485, $8.50) OR

117010 - I {Heart} Hearts wood mount set $26.95

I am purchasing this set right away myself and I will share with you here, on my blog, the samples I make, once my set is received. Thank you in advance for your support and generosity.

Additional New Item...

Here's another fun item available NOW to all Stampin' Up! customers. It was not included in the Occassions Mini Catalog, but is available for immediate purchase, just in time for Valentine's Day!

I can just imagine all the fun things that can be done with this punch (current catalog item) and the NEW Heart Treat Cups. It does not have to be just for Valentine's Day!
