Calling all Quilters

OK so you must be thinking this is a papercrafting site why in the world is she calling for Quilters.  Well while I was at Leadership they showed us something that I just had to share.  Quilters have discovered that our Big Shot is perfect for cutting out designs to make beautiful quilts with. 

I can’t sew a straight line if my life depended on it, but wow do I wish I could.  I was just in love with these beautiful quilts.  The great thing about the big shot is that it can cut through several layers of fabric at once so it saves time.  Plus it can cut out all the fun fancy stuff like curved edges that quilters usually cut by hand.

I’m really new to this stuff and just learning, but if you know of anyone that quilts and would like to save some time please tell them about this great product.  You could even host a party and receive all the great benefits for helping them out.

So here are some of the samples of the awesome stuff they had on display at Convention.  They also gave us each a quilt square and I have some more pictures I just have to find so I will post those later.  Enjoy!

Here’s a close up of the Star from above.  It uses the 5-point 3D star Die.  The one they gave us uses this same die to create a flower.  I would love this quilt for my son’s room or just a fun one for the family room.

This one uses the Pennant Die (a Stampin’ Up! exclusive.)  I think they fold the fabric in 1/2 before cutting for this one.

Here’s another one using the Pennant Die.

I believe the small circles in the center are the Scallops from the Pennant die.  you can also see them on the edges.

This is just a perfect baby blanket.

I love this one with the hearts.  I think it was done with the  Petal Card Die.

Another fun thing they have done is these flowers.  This one was done to clip on a bag.  IT uses the Flower Folds die (another Stampin’ Up! exclusive.)

Here are some more flowers.  I’ve seen them on bags, dresses and ever in little girls hair.  They also use the Scallop Circles and the Flower daisies #2 to create these I believe.

This pirate one is one if my favorites.  It uses the Stampin’  Up! exclusive Top Note Die.

I want this one for my mom so bad.  She loves patriotic stuff.

Once again the stars were created with the 5-point 3D star die.

So if you know anyone one that would love this stuff or you would like to here more contact me today.

New Club Starting in January

Hey everyone I just wanted to let you know that I have a new club starting in January.  It will be on January 13th.  I have two times available.  Daytime is from 11:00 am – 2:00 pm or evening from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm.  I also have a Saturday Club which will meet once a quarter from 10:oo am – 3:00 pm to make the projects.

Each month you will get to make a project (either a 12 x 12 double page scrapbook layout or 4 cards).  Plus one of the months you will get to be the hostess and receive all the hostess benefits.  All you need to do is make a commitment to spend $15.00 each month on Stampin’ Up! products of your choice.

Not sure about the commitment?  You can come to club anytime without joining all you have to do is let me know a week in advance.  I charge $7.00 for the projects if you are not a club member (free for club members.)  Or they are free with a $25.00 order.  However if you have never been to club you can come and check it out one month for free.

Click here for the Contract and all the details.

Here’s the fun projects we made last month.

I taught them how to make fun snow globes and how to use our great glitter with less mess.  Here is the snow globe on a card.

Here is how in incorporated the snow globe into the scrapbook pages.  I usually like to make the scrapbook page match one of the cards so you can see how versatile our products can be.  It’s also a great way to start to learn how to take card ideas and turn them into scrapbook pages and scrapbook pages into cards.

My card members always make two each of two different cards.  That way you have one to keep and one to give away.  Here was the second card they got to make.  This time we used window sheets for the snow globe instead of the glitter.

Sometimes I throw in a bonus project for everyone.  I just had to play with our fun pop-up christmas tree die.  This is the outside of the card.

Here’s a sneak peek of the fun projects we will be making this month.  You will just love it I promise.  So come and check it out.

On the 6th day of Christmas . . .

The Stampin’ Santa gave to you a really fun Candy Gift Box.

So I saw this idea on my friend Patty’s blog and just had to try it.  It’s made with our thick window sheets.  I simply cut out the box using our fancy favor’s box die and my Big Shot.  Then  I I embossed it with the Petals-A-Plenty Impressions Folder from the Holiday Mini.

The only trick is you need to cut your box now too 11″ instead of 12″.  Then you can emboss from each end (you roll it through twice.)

Can I just say I love my Big Shot.  Remember there are lots of great dies on sale right now.  Even if you don’t have the Big Shot yet.  You could start getting your dies and have all the cute ones when you get your Big Shot.  You could even use my Lay-a-Way program.

To order call me at 435-245-5321 (Home) or 435-232-2655 (Cell & Messages.)  E-mail me at andersoncandice@hotmail.com.  Order on-line at www.candiceanderson.stampinup.net. Click on the shop now in the upper right hand corner.

On the 4th day of Christmas . . .

The Stampin’ Santa gave to you a sneak peak project from the occasions mini catalog.

So I just had to share this fun project.  Can I say I’m in love with some of the new product in the mini catalog.  Plus if you haven’t heard yet we will be offering some of our stamps in clear mount.  This is so exciting.  Be sure to talk to me about all the details.  You will even be able to get the Sale-A-Bration sets in Clear Mount.

This paper is so much fun.  You can’t see it very well, but one side of each sheet has awesome glitter on it.  It really sparkles and adds a fun touch to your project.   Plus I just have to say I love the new Epoxy Brads, Colors for Corduroy Buttons and Satin Ribbon.  Way to much fun stuff.  I can hardly wait to show you.

My down-line made this fun project at our Down-line Christmas Party.  It includes the box with 4 fun notecards and envelops.  I will be offering this fun project at my Valentine ‘s class so be sure to be watching for it.

Remember now is a great time to book your party for Sale-a-Brations and the new mini catalog.  Both start January 5th.  Sale-a-Bration’s ends March 31st and the mini catalog ends April 30th.  Talk to me today.  Remember you can also earn one of my fun projects for FREE when you book your party.

On the 3rd day of Christmas . . .

The Stampin’ Santa gave to you a Candy Gift Box.

I saw this idea on a couple of blogs.  I used the layout from my friend Lisa’s.  It holds 3 3×3 cards w/ Envelopes and 3 chocolate candies.  It’s covered with our plastic window sheets that slides off and is held with our great elastic cord.  I just love this cute little gift.  I gave one to each of my down-line members to let them know how much I appreciate them.

Fall & Halloween Cards

This month I had the chance to help with some of the cards for our annual Queen’s of the Stampin’ Age Group meeting.  I designed lots of fun fall and Halloween cards and then we picked four of them for everyone to make at the group meeting.  We made a total of 24 cards plus a fun bonus project.  You can check out all the other cards we got to make under samples or by clicking here.

Fall Embossed LeafFall Embossed Leaf

This was one of the cards picked to make.  I love that the leaf is embossed and the wood piece was made with the Big Shot and the texture dies.

Spooky Eyes- OpenThis card was one of my favorites.  I used the window sheets on the back of the circles so I could put the eye on it then when you open it up it says BOO with the cute little pumpkins.  This was other card that they got to make.  I also loved how simple it was.

 

Spider CardSpider Card

I saw this card on a blog and just had to create it.  I changed the colors, but I love the idea.  You could use it for so many different kinds of cards.  What a great way to use all of our circle punches.  I also love it because it only uses paper so it’s easy to mail and very inexpensive to make.
