Want Monthly Creativity?


Here's exactly what will help with that:Paper Pumpkin!!


 The July kit is a first for Paper Pumpkin: 
 unprecedented catalog coordination, giving you THREE new suites that you can mix and match with July’s kit.

Woven Threads Suite on page s 13-14, Garden Lane Suite p. 40–41, and Come Sail Away Suite p. 144–145 are the Suites out of the new Annual Catalog that coordinate with this Paper Pumpkin kit. 

In the July kit, you will get everything you need to create 9 mailable cards complete with envelopes. Once the Paper Pumpkin kit is released, there will be alternate project ideas that combine the July kit with products from the coordinating suites. Use these alternate ideas, along with ideas of your own, to show how you get more bang for your buck by combining the kit with the suites.

Not subscribed yet? No problem. Here's my personal link to My Paper Pumpkin. 
Cost is $22 which includes shipping. 



Email me if you need help or have questions.

Looking forward to sharing this great kit with you!!

Until next time,

One of My Favorites

So many pretty things

Makes it hard to pick your favorite but let me help.

Here's my first pick. I love flowers, just ask my family. They are pretty, they are places for butterflies and hummingbirds, and they give back to our environment. One of my favorite is called Good Morning Magnolia. It is part of an entire suite of products called Magnolia Lane Suite on page 37 of the brand new Annual Catalog.


Oh my goodness, the pretty things you can make with this Suite.

Here are a couple of the cards I have made. The one on the left is CASE'd from the catalog on page 36. The one on the right is my own creation. I used one sheet of the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper to make my cards. The striped piece is the back of the little flower. 



  The framelits are amazing.  Those little individual flowers are cut out with a framelit! No fussy cutting, or cutting by hand.




The other two cards I created to use the single piece of DSP. That large magnolia blossom is just so pretty. I live in the South so magnolia trees grow well. Love this suite!
 

Would you like to make these cards? I can help you do that. Creativity is Calling!!

One More Thing:



This May, you are in for a treat. Paper Pumpkin has teamed up with Shelli Gardner, Stampin' Up's! board chair and co-founder, to deliver you a very special Paper Pumpkin kit. 

The look and feel of this kit is all Shelli. It's elegant, feminine, and so full of springtime details that you'll probably just want to take a walk, breathe in the fresh air, and then go home and stamp every card in the kit. And the box it comes in? I predict that you'll be keeping it. Wait and see.

In order to receive the Hugs from Shelli Paper Pumpkin kit, you must have an active subscription by May 10!

Here is my personal link to get signed up: Paper Pumpkin

I believe that is everything happening for now. I would recommend getting your retiring products ordered soon or you may miss out. 

Contact me with questions, concerns, help with ordering, how to use your products, etc. I am here to help. 

Until next time,

Getting Ready for OnStage!


It's that time: Kylie's Demonstrator Training Blog Hop AND OnStage Local.

I am so excited to be part of both events. What better card to feature for the blog hop than the one I am making for the card swap at OnStage? So, first I had to pick out which stamp set I wanted to use. That is not easy with all the choices in the Annual catalog and the Occasions catalog but I wanted to use up some of the Designer Series Paper so I picked that out first. It all came together in to this card:


Isn't it a beautiful day? Love What You Do is such a nice stamp set and that embossing folder is just the best. 



This is pretty much how I started laying out the card. If I am having trouble designing a card, I like to set out the parts of card and walk away for a while. When I come back, if I like what it looks like, I am ready to put it together. If not, I rearrange some and figure out what I need. 


The Lovely Floral embossing folder adds so much detail I hated to cover it up very much. Isn't it pretty?


I have added one little pearl out of the Share What you Love Artisan pearls. You know we have to embellish!


 I will be swapping this card with very few people at On Stage because time is limited and I will only make about twenty cards. I am so excited to be going to San Antonio here in Texas. I live in North East Texas so it's about a 7 hour drive, way cheaper than flying. 

Here's one more look at my Love What You Do card. 



While you are here, have you seen the new Storage by Stampin' Up?? See what you have missed in my online store


Seriously, if you have any of our ink pads, markers, Stampin' blends, reinkers and embellishments, this storage system is made to order. 



If you need more info, here's a flyer to answer your questions. Need help figuring out how to assemble your storage? Here are some suggestions.


Thank you so much for hopping by. 

Until next time,

Product List

Going, Going, Gone!

It's time to say goodbye to Sale-A-Bration.

Time flies when you're having fun.

What has been your favorite product that you could earn free during Sale-a-bration? I can't pick out just one. I love chickens so on the top of my list is Home To Roost.




Probably my next favorite is Hello Cupcake. The framelits made this stamp set even better but unfortunately, they went quickly and are no longer available. But there is always 'fussy cutting' with your own paper snips.




Then how about that cute So Hoppy Together? I don't really like frogs but this stamp set is so cute. 


The last stamp set that I really liked is the Lovely Lattice. It makes the prettiest cards no matter what color you make those roses. 





Know what the best part about Sale-A-Bration really is?
It is the perfect time to join my team! During SAB you get extra product for your investment. Yes, I call it an investment but it can be as simple as being a hobbyist and getting your discount (that's like using a coupon every time you shop). 

There are two options that expire March 31. 

Option 1: Get $175 worth of Stampin' Up! products for $99. That is $50 more than it will be April 1st. Plus, you have the 20% discount to use on your future orders. There is no requirement to sell or have classes.



Option 2: Get $175 worth of products Stampin' Up! PLUS the exclusive Craft & Carry Tote for just $129! Pick your starter kit and shipping is free. What a deal! The best part is the 20% discount (can be 25 %) you get on future orders.


Like I said, this is the BEST time to be part of this amazing Stampin' Up! family. Contact me if you have questions and I will be happy to talk about what I love.


Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Stamping,
Mary Lou
