Mini Catalog Open House on Saturday
Category: Catalogs
On the 9th day of Christmas . . .
The Stampin’ Santa gave to you a fun Holiday Card.
This is a card that I did at one of my parties. I really wish that you could see it better. The back is sprayed with the White Shimmer Spray so it really sparkles.
Here’s the really great news. The shimmer paints were so popular that they will continue to be available as a write in even after the mini catalog is over. If you haven’t tried these yet let me know. I’d love to come and show them to you.
The fun stamp set is the Holiday Pines from the Mini Catalog. It’s a hostess set and you only have a couple more weeks that you can earn it. Talk to me to find out more.
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.

Technique Tuesday 3-17-09
I have often been asked how I get my knots so nice. I will have to confess when I first started I turned to my up-line all the time for help. Now after a thousand swaps or so I can finally tie a good knot. I thought that maybe if I showed you step by step it would help.
I think the biggest thing that helps me is I usually tie the knot when it is still connected to the roll of ribbon. This makes it easy to always tie it correctly because I only have one end of the ribbon to work with.
Step 1- So first I place my ribbon under the idem I am going to tie the knot on.
Step 2- Next I cross the two pieces of ribbon. As you can see the roll of ribbon is now on the left side and the end I am tying with is crossed over to the right.
Step 3- Next you want to fold the lose end over the top and under the end attached to the roll.
Step 4- Now fold down the end attached to the roll. Now both ends of the ribbon should be facing down. The loose end is on the right side and the attached end is on the left side.
Step 5- Fold the lose end up across the attached end.
Step 6- Tuck the lose end under the attached end.
Step 7- Your finished knot. I believe this is called a square not, but I’m not sure. You think I would know since I have 4 boys and they are in scouts. I have found that when I tie a knot like this the ends both go down. If I want them to go up I just tie it upside down. On of the keys to a perfect knot is to keep the ribbon nice and flat through each step.
Here is the finished project. I hope that this helps you in tying the perfect knot. Remember that it also takes practice so just keep on tying.
Here is another sample of the same card with a different picture and saying. I got this card idea from Becky Roberts blog. You can check it out here www.inkingidaho.blogspot.com.
