You Plus Me

Leadership Conference Gifts

by

I’m on my way to Leadership!  Woo Hoo!  I had to leave my house at o’dark thirty this morning for my 7 am flight.  Yuk!  It’ll be worth it though!  I love Stampin’ Up! events!  I’m traveling with my friends Jan and Laura and we’ll meet up with other friends in Orlando.  Be sure to check out my Stamp by Stamp Facebook Page over the next few days to see what crazy things we’re doing!  🙂

IMG_5117It’s always fun to bring little gifts for the gals I’m hanging around with.  I was so excited when I came up with this fun little gift.  These little Tiny Treat Boxes are adorable!  They’re fun and easy to decorate too.

I used the Stacked with Love Designer Series Paper Stack and the You Plus Me stamp set to decorate my Tiny Treat Boxes.  I just layered the pieces of designer paper on Whisper White card stock and put a piece on each side.  After filling the box with Hershey Kisses (have you tried the caramel ones?  YUM!) I tied a little bow with Whisper White Satin Ribbon.  To finish it off I tied one of the new Something Borrowed Embellishments on top with a piece of baker’s twine.  Beautiful!  Wouldn’t you like to get one of these fun gifts?  🙂

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

 

You Plus Me (again!)

013Here it is….the last valentine I made back in December.  I haven’t had a chance to create yet in January and it’s already closing in on the end of the month!  I do plan to remedy that this week.  🙂

Just like on yesterday’s cards I started with one of the Crumb Cake Note Cards, the You Plus Me stamp set and the Stacked With Love Designer Series Paper Stack.  This card is a little more involved only because you have to die cut the banners.  Other than that it’s easy peasy!

I hope you’ve been inspired to start on your valentines. 😉

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Yet Another Sweet Valentine

by

015Yep…..I got carried away with the new You Plus Me Stamp Set.  These cute little cards were made using the You Plus Me stamp set yet again.

With the Crumb Cake Note Cards & Envelopes, the Stacked With Love Designer Paper Stack, the Stacked With Love Designer Washi Tape and some ink I got a whole lot of little valentines made.

We made these fun little cards in class this week.  I pretty much CASEd the ideas.  In the Occasions Catalog they show the above items used to decorate the Tiny Treat Boxes.  At the catalog premier event that I attended they showed us 010cards using the same decorating ideas that were used on the boxes and that’s where I got my ideas.  There is an endless supply of ideas that I get from other demonstrators, the web and Stampin’ Up!.  If you’ve ever considered becoming a demonstrator but think you’re “not creative enough” I say phooey!  Just borrow other peoples ideas or do what I do in a lot of cases and start with someone else’s idea a go from there.

007I would LOVE to have you join my team of SASsy (Seriously Addicted to Stamping) Stampers.   If you’re at all interested please contact me for more information.  During Sale-a-bration a new demonstrator can choose some fabulous items for their Starter Kit which is only $99!  Such a deal!  Think about it!  🙂

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

Valentine: You Plus Me

by

It’s January, it’s cold outside….real cold!  Do NOT ask me what I’m doing in MN in January.  Just call me crazy.  I can assure you….if we didn’t have family in this beautiful state we would not be here in January.

009Anyway….since it is January and we have to deal with the cold it’s probably time to start thinking about all those Valentines you want to make this year.  The You Plus Me stamp set is pretty darn cute and you can purchase it in a bundle with the COORDINATING Stacked with Love Designer Series Paper Stack.  Not only does the designer paper coordinate with the stamp set but the Stacked with Love Designer Washi Tape coordinates with BOTH!  Woo Hoo!  You know how much I love COORDINATION!  🙂

I made this adorable little valentine using one of the Crumb Cake note cards.  I actually made a whole mess of little valentines using the Crumb Cake note cards.  They went so fast and turned out so cute!   You really must check out all these products.

Have a warm and cozy day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!
