Just wanted to ring in the New Year with a little Stampin’ Fun. This cute set is one of the single stamps that are a single stamp exclusive. Remember it’s only available until January 2nd. My club member learned how to do the fun background technique last month. It’s done with bleach and our great spritzers. It you’d like to learn more great techniques like this then be sure to come and check out my club. Have a great year!
So I realized I’ve been a bit behind in my blog posting lately. Sorry life has been crazy. I thought I would share with you the fun projects we’ve done at club the last two months. I will be having a Club Discovery on Saturday March at 11:00 am. This is a great time to come and check out what club is all about. Bring a friend and I will have a free gift for you.
With my clubs you have two options for regular club members. You can sign up for the Scrapbook pages where you will make a 12 x 12 double page layout. Last month we made this fun home page using the sale-a-bration items.
In January we made this fun Love page. The club members were able to try out the fun build-a-bear die cut products we have. That’s one of the great things about club. Not only to you get to try some of our great products before you buy them I will also teach you how to use them.
The other options for my regular club members is to make cards. Card club members make two each of two different cards. That way you will always have one you can keep and one you can give away. I usually try to make one of the cards match the page. This way you have ideas on how versatile our products are and you get the chance to do the same technique. In February we made these two fun cards.
I got all of my Sale-a-bration sets & hostess sets in the clear mount so club members were able to try these new stamps and see which style fit them best.
In January they made these two great cards.
Sometimes I will have a bonus project for all of the club members to make. In Jaunuary they didn’t make these, but I made them and gave them to each new club member. They cover a calendar so they can keep track of all the fun events I have going on.
As a regular club member you agree to spend $15.00 each month (before shipping and tax) on Stampin’ Up! products of your choice. Each member gets one month that they receive the hostess benefits. Plus they get a Stampin’ Up! catalog for free. Click here to check out the contract.
Club is held on the 2nd Wednesday of each month at my home (no need to clean yours.) You can also chose to be a Saturday member. This club meets just 4 times during the year (once a quarter) and will make the projects for the three previous months. You still place your order every month.
The last option is called an alternative club member. There is no obligation with this membership. You can come anytime you like you just have to let me know at least 2 days in advance. You can choose to pay for your projects $5.00 or you can place a $25.00 order and it’s free. This is great if you can’t come every time, but still want to join in when you can. You also get a punch card that will help you to earn free products as well.
So what are you waiting for. Come and enjoy a girls night out and check out club. Contact me today to join 435-245-5321 or 435-232-2655. E-mail me today at andersoncandice@hotmail.com
There will be a special project for anyone that comes to the Club Discovery on Saturday the 20th. Current club members are invited to come and bring guests. If you decide before then that you want to join club you can come and make up the previous month projects on this Saturday. Just let me know in advance. You can pay $5.00 for each month or place a $15.00 order for each month. Remember that it’s still Sale-a-brations and I will add all three months together for new club members so $5.00 can earn you a sale-a-bration set.
I’m looking forward to seeing you there.
I received this item as a Convention swap. I just had to make more. I used them for Teacher’s gifts. We filled them with candy and gave them the candle so they could turn it into a luminary.
It’s made with the Fancy Favor Big Shot die. The snowflakes are rolled on with versa mark then I embossed them with the iridescent ice embossing powder. I punched out a snowflake on each side and covered it with White Vellum. They are finished off with the cute little “Ready Set Snow” stamp (from Best Wishes & More) on the front punched out with the word window punch and layered on the modern label punch. They were quick and easy to make. I love that they can be used for the whole winter season.
Remember that I have the Big Shot on sale in my 12 Days of Christmas. Get it now and start having fun all year.
This fun project is also one of the ones you can get for FREE when you place a $50.00 order.

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.

This post is a little late, but I thought you would like to see the fun projects we did for club in April. I featured the fun Just Beachy set from the mini catalog and showed them how to do the cracked Glass technique. I love this technique it looks so cool and is actually really easy to do.I got this fun idea from Kelly. You can check out her blog here: http://stampinparadise.blogspot.com. I changed it a bit.
I thought if you are really different than maybe you would be a different color. I don’t know if you noticed it but this fish is the only one in the set that goes the other way. Here is a close up of the cracked glass.
Here is the scrapbook page that I came up with using the card as my inspiration. I love how simple it is, but it has just a fun summer feel. We colored the fish with the watercolor wonder crayons and a aqua painter.
This is the second card that my card group made. I totally cased it from a blog, I tried to find it again so I could tell you who, but I couldn’t. I changed the saying in the center, but the rest is basically like hers. I thought it was a really cute card. The size is actually 5×5 go go in our 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 envelops. The fish are punched out with the 1 1/4″ Square Punch and then sponged with the pacific point.
We stamped Happy Birthday from the $10.00 and under page on the inside. Of course we used Whisper White craft in so that it would show up.
Since I had also just got the Matchbox die of course we had to try that out as well. Here is our fun projects using the match box die and the designer series paper from the mini catalog Walk in the Park.

Thrifty Thursday is all about cost efficiency. What I love about this card is it uses the products that come in the standard starter kit. Remember you can get started as a Stampin’ Up!® demonstrator for three easy payments of $67.00. Click here for more details. The starter kit has over $335.00 worth of product in it for just $199.00.
I really like this card beacuse it’s simple and easy to change the 
colors. The flower can be stamped or you can create any color by stampin’ it in VersaMark® and then using the Stampin’ Pastels® to add color. I recommend using the sponge daubers for this technique because it is easy and fast but you can also use q-tips. I really love the Stampin’ Pastels because they give you all the 48 colors plus 3 neutral colors for less than $25.00. It’s really the best way to get all of our colors to start off with and they are so easy to use.
One of the other things I love about this card is it’s so easy to dress it up. Here I have stamped the back ground (sorry it’s hard to see) with the little flower in the set and then I also added some ribbon along the top. Any white ribbon is great to start with because it goes with pretty much everything plus you can dye it to match your colors. If you would like to learn how to use our great chalks or to dye ribbon I would love to come to your home and show you and your friends how. Just give me a call and we can set up a date 435-245-5321.
One last thing that I love about this card is the saying. It comes from fundamental phrases. This stamp set is so versital. I has many different sayings. You could make up a bunch of these cards in different colors without the saying and then just choose the appropriate saying when you need it. It’s so simple and easy. You don’t need to run to a store every time you need a quick card.
