Game Changer from Stampin' Up!

Stampin' Up! is releasing a new tool called the Stamparatus that will be a game changer for stamping!  This is soooo amazing!  And you can reserve your copy tomorrow, November 16 beginning at 2 pm MT!

                                                        

All the pieces:                                                                      the back with cubbies for the bar magnets:                        

                                                 

 

With removable platforms you get 4 platforms to hold stamps, you can easily make multiples of cards as well as make mulitple images on a card front by moving the platforms down a notch.  Suitable for both clear mount and photopolymer stamps, it comes with a foam insert for your photopolymer stamps.  Since it is open-sided on two sides, you can now stamp on any size paper!  Wonderful if you scrapbook!  At a cost of $49, it's a bargain!  You'll be able to line up your stamps, stamp over and over to get a sharp image (without halos or shadows), and save money and time on no longer wasting card stock because of mistakes!  You can now easily use 2-step, 3-step and 4-step stamping with ease!

Wondering about the ordering process?  click here to see how.  You'll reserve your copy with a credit card but not be charged until the item comes in.  When the stamparatus comes into the warehouse, Stampin' Up! will email you that they are in and you can then place it on an order.  Since these won't be available to put on an order until after the first of the year, you can add something else to your order and qualify for a FREE Sale-a-Bration item too!

To reserve your copy, go to my store and click on Stamparatus!  Starts at 2 PM MT (that's 3 PM Central, 4 PM Eastern and 1 PM Pacific)

 

Happy Stamping!

Stampin' Blends Available NOW

Do you like to color?  Remember coloring with markers and all those streaks?  Now you can color and easily blend out all those marks!  The Stampin' Blends are wonderful and blend so easily!  They come in Stampin' Up! colors and you get a light and a dark marker to blend together.  There are 12 colors plus a bronze and an ivory for creating skin tones.  There is also a color lifter to lighten up areas and to even remove any boo-boos.  The markers come individually, the two color combo set or you can purchase the entire set!  Shop for these markers at http://bit.ly/ShopStampinBlends

                                                      

There is also a Color Me Happy kit

and a stamp set (both clear mount and wood mount). 

These also come in a bundle for $39.50

                                                                       

If you are interested in getting this kit or bundle, don't delay.  They are in limited numbers and Stampin' Up! says they are "as supplies last".  There are so many stamp sets in the catalog that can easily be colored too!  And don't forget about the  Just Add Color Designer Series Paper ($13)

  Just a reminder that these are alcohol markers.  You will need to use a dye ink to stamp first so that they don't bleed.  You can use Memento or any other dye ink (most of our stamp pads are dye ink pads).  And because they are alcohol markers, they will bleed to the back so protect your craft space and use your image on top of other cardstock.

Have fun and Happy Stamping!

Carols of Christmas Eclipse Card

Here is the second of the cards we made at my October class.  I wanted to get in on the eclipse card idea that is sweeping Facebook.

                                                        

Here is a side view

                                                         

And the inside using the Card Front Builder Dies

                                                           

Want instructions and all the details?  Click here.  There are many ways to create these eclipse cards--I used the method of multiple die cuts glued together to raise them up but many lift up the letters using foam strips.  Whatever works best for you is fine.

Now for my class I changed things up a bit as I didn't really like the way the card front turned out.  I moved the sentiment to the middle and bracketed it by the holly and berries.  I like the symmetry much better.

Quilt Builder Die Birthday Card

Yesterday I held my October class where we created 3 different cards.  The first card we made is the Quilt Builder Birthday Card.  (I'd like to thank Dawn Thomas for her inspiration for this card).

                                                           

This was a really fun card to make.  Another plus is that you cut out 3 different "quilts" so you can mix them up and make 2 additional cards!  It looks difficult but it's really not--it's like doing a jigsaw puzzle!
