Spring Fling, Take Out!

Take me Out to Spring Fling, take me out to stamp all day ...  well, sing it any way you want!!

We love to offer a vareity of projects that showcase our wonderful Stampin' Up! products!  So we create a wide display of projects from the products that we provide in their Goodie Bags! Showing versatility and using the items in a different way or in other combinations can make our products even more versatile.  We hope our guests not only enjoy the day but learn a new little somethin somethin too!!

Take Out Box & Celebrate Big Day Tag

Close up of the Tag

This was one of our favorite projects to make, because our inspiration came from the one and only Shelli Gardner, cofounder of Stampin' Up!!!!!  Diana received a beautiful gift box and we designed our own version to share at Spring Fling (completely different in every way other than the layout) with our guests.

Take Out Box, SAB Celebrate Big Day, Artisan Kit, Pink Pirouette Blendabilities, White Jute Ribbon, Soft Sky Seam Binding, Framelits, Embossing Folders and more!

Have a great day!

Dancing Bunny!

Hello!

When I saw this cute lil' stamp set I couldn't help but focus on the center of the image, this cute happy bunny!  As a mother of two daughters that have danced all their lives, I immediately pictured this lil' bunny as dancing!
So I stamped it and colored it in ballet pink (PINK PIROUETTE) of course, added some bling with the Silver Glimmer Paper, and created a lil' Tutu Treat Jar!  The white layer is a cupcake liner, and then layers of pink and glimmer that were punched with our circle punches, which become the perfect backdrop for our Dancing Bunny (stamped, colored and fussy cut out) popped up!  The jar is a 4oz jelly jar filled with pink, blue and purple m&m's!  A little Banner Tag punch of silver nestled in with the Pink Seam Binding to finish it off!

Here's a snapshot of how these were displayed at my team Demo Day event last weekend.  Featured on the left along with these projects is the new Artisan Kit and the Sweet Dream Designer Buttons are in one of my vintage jello mold trays!

I hope you have a happy weekend!  Go stamp something fun for yourself!!

Have a great day!

INKstravaganza PayDay!

Hi!
This week I will be sharing with you all of the Take Home Treats that I made for my INKstravaganza Day attendees!  They were so surprised and delighted to get to take one of each!  Come back every day this week for something new!  Most of the projects are hand stamped but I did create a portion of the things in My Digital Studio (MDS) to have kind of a theme - logo if you will for the day.  I hope you enjoy and at the end of the week, let me know which was your favorite!

Since the attendees had to earn this event and I was already taking them out to lunch somewhere really yummy, I didn't plan heavy snacks, just a little bit of  homemade goodies!  And how fitting to treat achievers to a PayDay treat - super easy, Salted Peanuts and Brach's Candy Corn mixed in equal proportions - you can add other mix ins if you'd like and make more of a 'mix' but sticking with just the original recipe ... together a little handful and it tastes like you've taken a bite of a PayDay candy bar!

On the right side you can see my PAYDAY being served in a cute glass pumpkin jar!

Fresh Prints, Really!

Hello!

Here's another fun make-n-take project that my club gals made on Monday!  They meet once a month and I provide 3 make-n-takes for them for FREE ($10 value)!  It's a fun little break, they get some Q&A time, and help placing their club orders, & socialize a bit with each other.  It's structured as a drop in, come and go as you need - this way it can fit in with their day.

This card features my favorite FRESH PRINTS DSP Stack ... seriously LOVE every color combination possible with it!  And they just stamped the front layer of the white card and then the rest is quick work with a doily folded in half and some punched flower images layered up and topped off with a rhinestone (why are they retiring the big ones?) and some ribbon!  Gorgeous Grunge & Really Great Greetings, Crumb Cake, Baked Brown Sugar and Real Red.

 

inspired by this card by Becky Roberts, kept the layout but changed up a few things

 

I'll share the third card tomorrow!  If you think you'd be interested in joining my monthly stampers club, I have new groups forming NOW for June-Dec! We start in June, so holler at me and I'll get more details to you along with your FREE catalog too!  Club groups accommodate local and long distance, even out of state members so don't worry if you don't live next door!  I do make and mail the completed cards to the long distance gals since they don't have the option to attend in person.  I would love to hear from you!

Have a great day!  See you again soon,
Rhonda

Valentine's Swaps, round 2

Hi there!

Hope you are having a great weekend!  It'll be a couple of crazy days as I get ready for my team meeting and then to leave for the annual Stampin' Up! Leadership Conference in Houston!  yikes, why is there always so much to do and so little time... or more like why do I always procrastinate!  Always trying to squeeze more things into the day!

So to be quick, here's a couple more Valentine's Swap cards from my Dec team meeting!  Enjoy!

These were shared by Tari and Beth!

Swapped by Tari Lochhead

Swapped by Beth Walters

I love how both of these cards have surprise folds!  Tari used the Thinlit Flip Card Framelits and the other side reveals a secret message.  And Beth creatively has a 1/2 panel as the front of her card with the focal images laying over into the open area ... but when you open it, there's a hidden greeting inside as well!  Nicely done ladies!


Have a great day!
Rhonda
