Big News

Hey everyone,

I know I’m haven’t been posting very much the last few months, but I have a really good excuse.  I found out at the end of January that I’m expecting.  The baby is due in September.  I’ve been really sick, but I’m finally feeling better.  Thanks so much to everyone has continued to support me when I wasn’t feeling so good.

Next comes my EXTRA BIG NEWS!  For those of you who know me and those that don’t I currently have 4 boys.  We found out on Monday that we will finally be getting our BABY GIRL.  She’s the last so I know she will be very spoiled, but I am so excited to be having a girl.  I can hardly wait to make cute things for her using all of our great products.

So once again I just wanted to say thanks for your support and I’m feeling better now so I’d love to book a party with you.  Let me know how I can help.

Have a Stamptastic Day!  Candice

Managers Reception

I just got back from Leadership in Nashville TN.  It was so much fun.  This year I was able to attend my first ever Manager’s Reception.  It’s a special party for those who have earned the Manager’s title.  I was looking at the Stampin’ Up! website this morning and noticed that our picture was on it so I just had to share.

Starting from left to right is my Up-line Brandi Barnard, then Kristi, my other up-line Amy Johnson, Melanie, Me the Ashley and Wendy.  They took us to the Wild Horse Saloon.  The food was fabulous as well as the entertainment.  Plus the gave us all these fun hats and a new stamp set.

I have lots of fun ideas that I’m looking forward to sharing with you.  Thanks to everyone who helped me get here.

I’m so excited I had to share!

I’m super excited and just had to share my good news with you.

Stampin’ Up! was having a contest to help us get inspired to earn the Disney World trip this year.  So they decided to have a Disney contest.  All you had to do was create something Disney and then post it on our group website Stampin’ Connection, which is like a facebook for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators only.

Of course I just had to enter and today I found out that I won.  There were over 250 entries and I was picked as one of the five winners.  I also got a free stamp set of my choice so I’ve been walking on air all day.

Anyway I thought I would share with you the 5 projects that I entered.

This is my fun Disney sign to keep me inspired.  All of the fun characters are made with punches.

I had a friend request for me to make a Donald Duck out of punches so I thought the contest was the perfect opportunity.

This one is a little different.  It’s a giant Genie that I have on my back door.  He’s holding our dream board.  I drew him, but I colored him with the Stampin’ Up! water-color pencils.  Oh and yes I do know that I spelled command wrong.  I just through it in the picture on Photo shop and didn’t notice till later.  It will be correct when I add it to the door.

You’ve probably seen this one before it was a page that I entered in my first Artisan Award Contest.

Last is the winning card.  This is my Goofy card which you’ve probably seen before.  His all made with punches.  I actually made him for a swap a few years back.

Thanks for sharing my excitement with me.  I hope you enjoyed my projects.

Remember that there’s still plenty of time to join me and earn the Disney trip together.  Plus there is the Totally-Awesome tote that you get for free when you sign up before 18th.  Contact me today for more information.  435-245-5321

PS-
I was thinking that I would give away 5 of these fun cards. To win all you have to do is help me get to 50 fans on my “Stampin With Candice page” on Facebook.  All you have to do is go to my page by clicking on the link and select like, then invite your friends to like my page too.  Then leave me a comment. I will choose 5 winners when I get to 50 fans and I’ll mail them out to you. Thanks so much for your support and for helping me to spread the word.

Check out my Rag Bag

I talked a little bit about using the Big Shot for quilting and sewing when I got back from Leadership in January, however since I’m not that great at sewing I haven’t been able to peruse it much further.  In April I was able to attend a meeting held by my up-line Amy Johnson and was finally able to learn how to make one of these awesome Rag Bags.  Can I just say it was way easier that I thought it was going to be.

So here’s me sewing my bag.  It was so easy to cut out.  I just cut the fabric in strips and then I was able to cut out 8 scallop squares at once.  I loved it.  We also made this awesome flower to go on the back.  I was surprised at how easy it was and that I was able to do it thanks to the help of my awesome Stampin’ friends.

Then here’s the finished project.  It’s awesome because you can make the bag any size that you want.  You can totally customize it for your needs.

They have also been making quilts, hair bows, clothing and more.  You really need to check out all the things you can do with our fabulous Big Shot.

So now I’m excited to share this with you.  I’m going to be having a
