Stampin' Up Product Share!

Hello, blog friends :o)

Anyone want to do a Stampin' Up Product Share??

I am considering doing a PRODUCT SHARE for some current Stampin' Up Accessories from both the main catalog and the Holiday Catalog, such as either Ribbon or Designer Series Papers.

if i get enough people interested, i will do one!

SO! I am hoping you will be interested! 

If this is something you think you would want to participate in, let me know in the comments, and if i have enough people interested, i will post more details of which products, etc.

This would only be available to people in the continental United States, sorry for those outside :o(

Little Gifts

here is my sample for this weeks Stampin' Royalty Challenge, Christmas in July! 

I handmade this whole gift box. i love the look of polka dots, and i wanted the box to have them, so i needed to make my own polka dot cardstock. I used a circle from the Daydream Medallions set to stamp on the cardstock with versamark, then i used white embossing powder. 

During the Stampin' Up convention, I was the lucky winner of the Gift Bow Bigz Die!! so i wanted to use it for the first time on this project! we also got the Tag It stamp set, and i used that to make the tag, but i only inked the border part with my Real Red marker, then stamped the 'to-from' using Basic Black.  I cut out the tag, then hand cut out a mat for it, added a small rhinestone, and tied it to the box. the 'ribbon' is made with Silver Glimmer paper and Real Red.  Gives it that extra little sparkle! 

Supplies:

Cardstock - Sahara Sand, Real Red

Stamps - Tag It, Daydream Medallions

Accessories - White Embossing Powder, Silver Glimmer Paper, Gift Bow Bigz Die, Sahara Sand DSP, Versamark, Rhinestones

Here we are on the cusp of fall….ahh, fall. The cooler weather, the changing colors on the trees, the lovely reminders that the seasons are changing….

This is my favorite time of year. I’m absolutely crazy about fall colors! They make the most beautiful backdrops for pictures! I love taking pictures, especially of my kids! (They make great subjects!) And besides, it gives me more of an excuse to scrapbook!
