01.02.2023…..Hi everyone! During the first week of November 2022, thousands of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world, gathered at OnStage and OnStage Local events. And….what fabulous events they were !!! They were jam-packed with stamping presentations, demonstrator recognitions, and break-out classes full of tips, tricks, and lots of info to help us “better our best” with our Stampin’ Up! businesses!

With all of that being said, this is a much different post than my usual weekly posts, but it’s beyond exciting, to say the least! I was selected to be one of the 20 members of the 2023 Stampin’ Up Artisan Design Team, from around the world!

Above is the gorgeous, personalized memento box that all the Artisan Design Team Members were awarded…which included a Welcome letter, a beautiful engraved bracelet from Tiffany’s, and a personalized Artisan Design Team stamp!

Starting this month (January 2023), I will be participating with the rest of the Stampin’ Up! 2023 Artisan Design Team members, via the Stampin’ Up! corporate Facebook page and Instagram as well, and…..we will be showcasing projects created with the all wonderful products from our Stampin’ Up catalogs!  

With all of that being said, I am incredibly humbled and honored to be a part of this amazingly talented team, and am looking forward to sharing this journey with all of you during the coming year.  Thank you to Stampin’ Up! for giving me such an absolutely amazing opportunity!!!  I’m over the moon!Wishing you creativity always,

12.18.2022…..Happy Sunday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I wanted to share a card that I created for this month’s Stampin’ Fancy Friday challenge! It’s a fun, creative “ Use Your Stash Challenge”.

When I saw theme of this challenge, I immediately knew I was going to use the Whimsical Trees Bundle (from the July – Dec 2021 Mini Catalog), along with the Whimsy & Wonder Designer Series Paper. For the background, I used a Blending Brush, along with Misty Moonlight (one of the 2020-2022 Colors). To add an extra bit of sparkle, I used the Be Dazzling Specialty Paper (from the 2021 Sale-A-Bration Catalog), Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels, and Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels.

Be sure to join us to see what our Stampin’ Fancy Friday team created. We have 27 amazing projects to share, and each using a unique product inspiration from products in their stash!

Then…..you create a card or project, with inspiration of your own (or use one from our team)…..using anything you have in your stash! (aka collection) Could be new, could be an old favorite that you kept, could be something you hoarded and wanted to finally use.. Share your project on IG or FB and tag us by using #stampinfancyfriday or #fancyfridaychallenges in your post.

12.13.2022…..Happy Tuesday, my stampin’ friends! One of my favorite things to do is to create little 3″ x 3″ notecards. And today…..I decided to create four of them, with a festive, holiday theme.

Hope these 3″ x 3″ card inspire you to create some festive little projects as well!
