Today we have the Colorful Season Stamp of the Month classes!  I've been looking forward to this class and the chance to create more with this stamp set.  We're going to have a great time stamping today! Before I share a card with you, I wanted to mention that I am planning to hold an In Color Club.  It dawned on me yesterday that I haven't given you the details on that.  Look for them in the next day or two.  I am also hoping to list some retired stamp sets for sale in the next week or so.  You'll want to keep your eyes open for those.

I thought I would share a card I made for my Technique Club.  Those in club get to try out the various techniques and then I create a card to share with them that showcases the technique they are learning. Here's a card I made using the Remarkable You stamp set. Continue reading

You know I like the High Tide stamp set!  I have a feeling you'll be seeing this one off and on for quite some time.  In fact, we recently finished up our Lighthouse Decor class.  That was so well liked I had to go searching for more frames we could use because I bought out all the store had of the one style and we needed more. Have you noticed how popular lighthouses are right now?  It seems like I am seeing lighthouse themed items everywhere lately! Continue reading

The Sheltering Tree has not been around nearly as long as the Lovely As a Tree stamp set which I shared with you yesterday, but it is also very popular. We pulled this set out for the Guy Cards class as well. Continue reading

The Lovely As a Tree stamp set has been around longer than I have been a demonstrator and I don't think I've ever heard anyone say they don't like the set.  It goes with everything and works for just about anyone. I decided to pair it up with our new Tranquil Tide In Color for this card and it was a hit! Continue reading

Any time I pull out the Foxy Friends stamp set, it's always well liked.  Who can resist that little guy?!  And of course you can make so many more animals than just the fox. We used the fox for some of our cards in the Guy Cards class. Continue reading

I've shown you a glimpse of this card a few times, but I don't believe I've ever actually shown you the whole thing.  This is one of the cards we made at the New Catalog Party using the new Colorful Season stamp set, the coordinating Seasonal Layers thinlit dies, and the new Tranquil Tide In Color.  That's lots of "new"! Continue reading

I was originally planning to have the Daisy Delight stamp set be our June Stamp of the Month, but then I changed it to August.  Why?  This stamp set is so incredibly popular that it went on backorder just from Demonstrator orders, before it was even open to the public to order!  Wow! So, being that popular, I've decided to wait and give Stampin' Up! time to catch up and get some good stock in before we try ordering the supplies needed for class.  We're going to have a great time creating with this set! Continue reading

Today is the last day you can order for this catalog.  Tomorrow we get the new catalog!  Time sure does fly, doesn't it?  Wow!  I'm excited for the new catalog and all the new goodies it brings with it.  I'm also excited about the New Catalog Party on Thursday evening.  Have you RSVPd to attend? I thought I'd share one last card using the retiring Traveler stamp set.  It's a simple one, but a great way to use most, if not all, the stamps in a set. Continue reading

I wanted to pull out some retiring colors for this card.  The stamp set, Flourishing Phrases, is sticking around, but the colors are going away. We used Cucumber Crush and Watermelon Wonder for this card. Continue reading

The Friendly Wishes stamp set is retiring soon so I wanted to pull that out for the All Occasion Card class as well.  This has been a fun stamp set I've enjoyed pulling out on occasion for the larger sentiments.  Sometimes it's nice to have a larger sentiment that becomes the focal point instead of an image.
