Retired Ribbon Share

As you know, I buy ribbon in large amounts. I always buy too much because I love it.  I am having a share of my retired seam binding and my mini ruffled ribbon.  This is one of my favorite ribbons because the bows tie so nicely and the ribbons are beautiful.  I find that I can’t use retired ribbon as much because I want to share the new ribbon with my friends.  If you want to participate in the share you will get the following ribbon:

1 yard each of regular seam binding in Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Whisper White, Calypso Coral. Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Wisteria Wonder, Pool Party, Very Vanilla , Wild Wasabi and Pear Pizzazz =11 yards, 1 yard each of Crinkled Seam Binding in Emerald Envy, Night of Navy, Berry Burst and Peek-a-boo Peach= 4 yards  and 1 yard each of Mini Ruffled Ribbons in Powder Pink, Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist and Fresh Fig = 4 yards  These are all very popular colors.  Some of the ribbons are in shorter supply than others. If you want in, please let me know. There is a total of 19 yards of ribbon for $12.00. ( You can get 2 yards of each ribbon for $22.  That would be 38 yards of ribbon).  This is below my costs.  The ribbon will be wrapped on chipboard so it does not get wrinkled.  I can mail it for $2.00.

  On the 3rd Saturday each month, I have a card challenge.  Each person gets a kit of supplies and they share a stamp set and thinlits or punches.  Everyone has a great time and they always ask if we are having a card challenge.  Here is one of the challenges

When I first started the challenge, all the girls were nervous.  I wanted them to learn how to make cards at home .  Just pick a stamp set and accessories, then paper and ink.  They are not nervous anymore.  

 

On Stage Presentation with Stampin' Up!

  

Here are the cards I presented at On Stage Stampin' Up! in Atlanta.  This is a new set coming out in the Occasions Mini Catalog in January.  You are going to love the Occasions catalog this year.

On Stage in Atlanta

Here we are at our On Stage event in Atlanta.  My sweet downline. We had a wonderful time.  We got lots of freebies and ate lots of good food in Atlanta restaurants.  

Tis the Season

This year we have a great selection of plaid DSP.  Plaid makes a great Christmas card.  On this card I used Wrapped in Plaid DSP (149596) on a Crumb Cake base. The words are from the Jolly Season Dies (150648) in copper foil. Copper is really big this year.  I punched the trees using the Pine Tree Punch (149521).  I adorned the trees with Star Designer Elements (150430).  The ribbon is retire but you can use any red ribbon for this quick and easy card.  We need quick & Easy for our Christmas cards.  I hope you like my cards.  Come back when you can.  

Christmas Gleaming

Have you ever seen such beautiful Designer Paper that is Stampin' Up! in any other place?  They are all gorgeous all the time.  This DSP is from Brightly Gleaming (150429).There are so many beautiful colors in the package including copper foil.   In this card, I have punched 3 ornaments with the Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack (150647) out of the DSP and hung them on the bough from Shine Bright stamps (150719).  The background is also from this package.   The copper ornament was embossed with the Swirl and Curls embossing folder (147923).  The ornaments are hung with copper thread.  The ribbon is 1/2" Classic Weave Ribbon (150934).  It has Merry Christmas in 2 different fonts in copper.  There is a scrap of Vellum behind the ornaments.  The card base is Pretty Peacock ( a new In-Color this year).  I will have more cards later this week.  Thanks for stopping by.  

 

Frosted Foliage Sneek Peek

I'm getting ready for the holiday season.  Stampin Up! has so many gorgeous accessories and stamps in the Holiday Catalog.   I used the following to make this card:

Frosted Foliage stamps 150520 and embossed the wording in White embossing powder on Feels Like Frost DSP 150444.  I cut out the frame using the Frosted Frames Dies (150658) and Seaside Spray(150883) and adhered the DSP to the frame.  The card base is Smoky Slate(131202) and I added a 1 1/2" strip of Vellum.  I tied a piece of Seaside Spray 1/4" metallic Ribbon around the card and then attached the frame.  I cut out snowflakes using  the Seasonal Layers Dies snowflakes (143751).  I used Shimmery Crystal Effects ((150892) and Ice Stampin' Glitter on the snowflakes. The snowflakes are so beautiful with all the glitter.  

I am trying very hard to earn the incentive trip to Maui and the period for earning ends September 30. 2019.  If you need products, I would really appreciate an order.  Thanks a bunch

Spooktacular Halloween

When i was a child, we didn't have money for candy and such.  Halloween was a big deal because we could walk around at night not worrying about any real bad guys and we got lot of candy.  We saw a lot of spooky people.  I was one of them.  I was usually a ghost because that was easy.  We were out for hours and had pillow cases for our treats.  There was one house that gave out whole Snickers candy bars.  We never missed going to that house.  We all had such a good time.  This spooktacular card was made using the Spooktacular stamp set 150544, Ornate Frames Dies 150664 and Monster Bash DSP 150447.  The ribbon is Glittered Organdy Ribbon 147897.  This is a super easy card.  Thanks for visiting my blog.
