New Year's Card

HAPPY 2019!!!!

I hope you all had a wonderful celebration. We sure did! We had a houseful of wonderful friends and family. They were here till noon today so it was many hours of fun!

 

We demonstrators have been challenged by Stampin' Up! to put some Simple Stamping cards out there. This is a VERY difficult task for me. I like bling, glamour and lots of "foof"! So, this is as "Simple Stamping" as it gets for me! Some minor heat embossing, a little stamping, slap a ribbon (blingy of course, though 😉) and viola! a New Years Card for our guests!

 

I made 6 of these in probably an hour. It was great, but very, very difficult to not play with them more.
Now it's time for some R&R for me. I didn't get much sleep, LOL!

I pray that 2019 finds you all happy & healthy! 

And just a reminder, SALE-A-BRATION & the new OCCASIONS catalog starts in 2 days!!!! Woot! Woot! There are some GREAT deals again this year.  Full details coming soon!

Please contact me if you don't have a demo and you would like catalogs. 

~Happy Stamping!~

Corner Fold Wine Card for the Stray Ducklings Blog Waddle

What time is it???

It's Blog Waddle Time!!!

We Stray Ducklings are busy shaking our tail feathers in Orlando at Stampin' Up's 30 year celebration!

 Here we are with the CEO of Stampin' Up. From the left: Lori (aka: "Mama Duck"), Me, Sara Douglas, Kelly & Deb.

"Who are the Stray Ducklings?" You may be asking.  We're a group of Stampin' Up! demos from North Central Illinois who like to share everything Stampin' Up! related and when we get together the feathers fly because we have so much fun! We love what we do and get to share what we love with all of you. If you'd like to join us, please send me a note and we can chat. I love chatting with other crafters.

 And, since we're celebrating in Orlando, I'd like to share a virtual glass of wine with you 😁🍷

 I used the Half Full stamp set designed by Million Dollar Achiever (and my wonderful upline), Linda Bauwin. And, I got to spend a little time with Linda during this trip. Here we are :)

I love this stamp set. It's so fun to use and well, I don't know many people who don't like wine ;) 

The fold is call the "Corner Fold". I used the Fine Tip Glue to make the wine look real. Pretty cool, eh?

Here's the complete list of blog waddlers. Won't you please visit my friends and leave us all a little love? It's so encouraging to hear from others.

Happy Tuesday Friends! 

Today I'd like to share a post-it note holder that I made for a recent swap. 

Isn't it cute?! The idea was CASEd from one of Linda Bauwin's retreats. I opted to change it up and use the stamp Linda designed when she reached a million dollars in sales, Half Full. 

It even slides flat so you can mail it! I forgot to take a picture of that though. LOL!
