Remember this sale is one day only so head on over to my online store and get your punches today!

During the month of October hostesses can earn $25 more in hostess dollars when their party's merchandise (before shipping and tax) total equals $250.   The Stampin' Up hostess plan already provides $40 in hostess dollars when the merchandise total equals $250, so this month you will get a total of $65 in hostess dollars .  You can use your hostess dollars to purchase catalog merchandise or you can choose exclusive hostess only stamp sets or a combination.   One of my favorite hostess sets is Warmth and Wonder in the Holiday Catalog.  It has 7 images and you can get this set for just $10 in hostess dollars.

Stamps:Warmth and Wonder, Daydream Medallions
Ink: Old Olive, Real Red, Pacific Point
Paper: Whisper White, Red Glimmer Paper
Punches: 1-3/4" Circle, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack
Big Shot: Perfect Polka Dot folder, Floral Frames Collection
Extras: Rhinestones, Red Sharpie marker

If you would like to host your own stamping or catalog party please contact me.  I would love to help you earn some fun and fabulous stamping products!

It is no secret that the Modern Medley Designer Series Paper is one of my favorites.  I love mixing and matching the different patterns and it is perfect with just a splash of Real Red or Cherry Cobbler.

Stamps: Bring on the Cake, Express Yourself, Papillon Potpourri
Ink: Basic Black
Paper:  Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, Modern Medley DSP
Punches: 2-1/2" Circle, Modern Label, Word Window, Bitty Butterfly

There's only about 1 week left to take advantage of the $25 Starter Kit.  Don't wait and miss out on this great opportunity!  You can get all the information about this here or feel free to contact me.

There are 2 sentiments in the Million and One stamp set and they are both gorgeous.  I chose to use the "fabulous sentiment" as I have some fabulous people I need to send cards too.  

Stamps: Million and One, Best of Flowers
Ink: Basic Black, VersaMark
Paper: Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Real Red, Modern Medley DSP 
Punches: Bird Builder punch, 1-1/4" Scallop Circle, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch pack
Extras:  Black Stampin' Glitter mixed with Clear Embossing powder 

I hope you can see the glittery black centers of the flowers.    The Black glitter is from the Black and Orange Stampin' Glitter (132206)  on page 20 of the Holiday catalog.  

You can just barely see it but I decorated the inside of the card with a strip of the Modern Medley DSP and a  red flower.   Sorry the color is so off in this picture, it really is Very Vanilla.

Remember the hostess special going on for this month!   Call me and schedule your event today!

 

Beware that the Thank You Thursday special is for one day only!  The Weekly Deals that are announced on Tuesdays can be found in my online store under Weekly Deals and they are available for 1 week while supplies last.

First off, the Thank YOU Thursday Special

Don't delay cause this one is only good for today, 10/10!  Also please note that the discounted price shows up after you place it in your shopping cart.  

Today was the first time in quite a while that I was able to spend time in my stamp room.  I will admit the going was a bit slow since I felt VERY rusty and it took a while to get anything made that I was happy with.   

The colors are a little different but I like it, thank you Stampin' Up! Color Coach!  
Stamps: Magnificent Maple 131868, Tags for You 131823 , Dictionary130351
Ink: Crumb Cake, Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze
Paper: Bermuda Bay, Very Vanilla
Punches: Label Bracket  
Extras: Heat and Stick powder, Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Burlap ribbon 

I hope you can see the glittery leaves.    I made the leaves by stamping them with the firm foam Classic Stampin' pads and then quickly pouring on Heat and Stick powder.  I heated it using my heat gun and then sprinkled on the Dazzling Diamonds glitter.  I heated it again just to set the glue and the glitter.   You have to work pretty quickly since Classic ink dries pretty quickly.  

Tomorrow I am going to do an update on all the awesome new offerings from Stampin' Up!  There are so many cool new products that you will want to know about!
