Stampin' Up! Single Stamps - The christmas Collection

I often get asked why Stampin' Up! don't sell many single stamps. There are a few to choose from in our annual catalogue but now we have a new collection available from now until 31st Jan 2014 - you might want to get them before then though! Here they are:

Stampin_Up

 If you click on the image it will take you to my online shop where you can buy these. You might want to take a look at the Clear Mount Blocks too as you'll need the right sized block to use these clear mount stamps - oh and did you know we do coordinating punches and dies for many of these stamps too? It says under each stamp what products coordiante so don't worry about having to choose the right product - it's all done for you.

Of course you can order by phone, email and in person too! Why not book yourself a crafty night at home and host your very own Stampin' Up! party? You provide the friends and I'll bring the fun.

Email me to book your party at:

Stampin' Up! My Digital Studio Hybrid Crafting

Hellooo - today I'm going to share with you a couple of projects I made with the help of My Digital Studio - the new digital designer software from Stampin' Up!

I was asked to do a short presentation on using My Digital Studio at the Stampin' Up! Creative Tour last week and these are a couple of the projects I shared at the end. Many people have mentioned to me that doing digital crafting doesn't give the same result as actual paper crafting so I'm hoping to change their minds! With Christmas approaching combing Stampin' Up flat pack boxes with My Digital Studio can help you create beautiful gift boxes. Here's the first one.

I used a Kraft Gift Box and decorated it with Cherry Cobbler Card and some Champagne Glimmer Paper.  

Stampin_Up

For the digital bit I selected some embellishments on My Digital Studio from Very Merry 25 - a sample shown below. I re-sized them and printed on to a sheet of Whisper White Card.

Stampin_Up
 
Then the fun starts - I've sized them to match up with Stampin' Up! punches and dies and cut paper ribbon strips too.

Stampin_Up

The next gift box is made from a Tag A Bag Box, I selected the background paper and then positioned the tags before printing to size to fit the box. Again, just printed at home onto Whisper White Card.

Stampin' Up! Frosted Finishes Embellishments

Given a tub of 12 Stampin' Up! rhinestone adorned embellishments what would you create? Well I didn't use a whole tub (which is only £6.25 so great value) I set about making some Christmas gifts!!

So here is what I created using some silver plated jewellery findings (not Stampin' Up!) and 10 of the beautiful Frosted Finishes Embellishments. Starting with a simple necklace - I've worn this lots already!

Stampin_Up

Aren't they the most beautiful snowflakes? Not just for card and scrapbook projects. Next up a pretty ring and not forgetting the chaps this Christmas, some cuff links:

A pair of earrings on fish hooks:

And a pair on studs:

Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Training

I had a bit of time today to sort out some photos from the Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Training day that myself and my teamie Louise ran on Saturday. Starting with some photos courtesy of Lisa Marie Olson, so pleased to have a photo of our giveaway notepads, decorated goodie bags and one of Louise and I too:

Stampin_Up

 Got to love Lisa for these as I totally forgot to take a photo of the red and green notepads! We gave everyone a decorated bag filled with goodies and a water bottle too - plus a bag full of designer papers etc. We like training but we like to craft too!

Next you can see our raffle prize display - our fabulous Stampin' Up! decorations on our tree and there's Christine holding up the ornament she made!

Stampin_Up

Next up - our registration table, a photo of some of the girls having a proper giggle, Sandrina winning on raffle and Christine too!

Stampin_Up

Here are some pics of our inspiration area - the theme was certainly Christmas!

Stampin_Up

 More raffle winners for Maggie and Beryl, Shell showing off her projects and everyone else hard at work.

Stampin_up

We'll be announcing the date of our next all day training session shortly, in the meantime if you'd like to know more about becoming a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator yourself, please drop me an email at:

bluejellystampin@sky.com

or if you're as keen as custard you can sign online here:

You don't have to be an experienced crafter to enjoy the benefits and rewards being a demonstrator can bring, you just have to love it and myself and Stampin' Up! will help with the rest.

More in the week when I'll share the actual projects we made.

Stampin' Up! Build A Banner

Ooh I'm having a proper lazy Sunday with my hubby and boys after a fun but hectic day at Stampin' Up! training yesterday. I'll post about that tomorrow. For today I'm feeling like sharing a really fun and inky project I made using the Stampin' Up! Build A Banner Simply Created Kit.

Starting with a close up:

Stampin_Up

Last year I wasn't really feeling the love for Stampin' Up! Glass Glitter - but this year I can't get enough of the stuff! Isn't it funny how your tastes change? Glad it's still available and in tow shades too - this is Champagne. I've used it to decorate my tree along with Candy Dots.

Here's the full project:

Stampin_Up

I made a gift bag using two of the canvas pennants from the kit. You get 18 in total so plenty for lots of projects. I stuck them together using Tombow and then decorated with the stencils in the kits using Finger Daubers with Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler and Crumb Cake inks. The Glass Glitter is held in place with Tombow too - such an amazing glue. I had this on display at our training event yesterday and it got plenty of 'oohs' and 'aahs' so much so that I will be advertising a class using the banner kit very soon!

Stampin' Up! My Digital Studio Is Here!

Woo-hoo I'm so pleased to share with you that My Digital Studio from Stampin' Up! is now available to purchase. If you're a digi fan or haven't yet tried your crafty mitts at it - I can promise you you'll love it! I used to do loads of digi crafting prior to becoming a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and I'm so so pleased to be able to enjoy this other side of crafting again.

My Digital Studio is Stampin' Up! exclusive software that enables you to be your own designer, cards, photo books, calenders and more. It's fabbo! And what's more you don't have to wait for postage to get a disc because it is all available to purchase and download online in my Stampin' Up! Online Shop.

What's more it's a right steal as you can download it and try it for FREE for 30 days by clicking onto my online Stampin' Up! shop here:

Stampin_Up

After the 30 days you will probably want to buy the actual software, which again you can download from my shop for just £13.95. In the shop you will find loads of extras that you can choose to buy at a later stage. You'll find everything from digi kits to embellishments, punches, stamps, papers and loads of ready designed templates too. Did I mention there are FREE downloads available too?

Want to see one of the projects I made yesterday? We recently visited Legoland Windsor for our 10th wedding anniversary (yes we took the boys with us!) and I had to make a 12x12 scrapbook page using the My Digital Studio Software:

Stampin_Up

The great thing about My Digital Studio is that it accesses all the fonts you have installed on your PC already. I downloaded the Lego style font for free and everything else on the page is from My Digital Studio software. I recently purchased an A3+ printer so am able to print out individual pages at home but Stampin' Up! has arranged a fabulous printer and you can send all your projects off to be printed professionally in true Stampin' Up! colours etc - all done through the software.

Hope you like it.

Stampin' Up! Color Me Christmas Card

Sorry for the break in blogging, the last day I blogged my Dad in Law sadly passed away and I have been spending time with my hubby. He has returned to work today and so have I - to my Stampin' Up! job which I love. I've received loads of messages, texts and cards and we both wanted to say thanks so much. We're all doing OK and focus is very much on the boys and keeping things 'normal'.

So there's my update, now back to Stampin' Up! today is quite exciting for me as it's my first official day as a full time Stampin' Up! demonstrator now that my youngest has started full time at school - eeek! If you'd like to know more about joining our team and having fun doing the best job ever - just drop me an email at:
bluejellystampin@sky.com

I'm sharing a Christmas card today. I've again used the cute Color Me Christmas set for this one, I stamped the reindeer on to Shimmery White Card and coloured him with Markers and cut him out.

Stampin_Up

I surrounded him by baubles using Candy Dots too. Shhh don't tell anyone, this is my card for the Hubby!!!
 
Stampin_Up

Much to do this week, prepping kits etc for our all day training session this Saturday, can't wait - so much to share with you afterwards, first the ladies coming need to see it all!
