Stampin' Up! has been part of my...or should I say "our" lives going on seven years now.
And, the truth be known...my husband is my biggest fan. :)
There are many stories I can tell of this journey but last night and last week tops it all.
For Valentine's Day, I made my husband a mini book much like the one seen HERE but in a beautiful collection of designer paper in neutrals and metallics. Discover how to create one in this class!
He told me it was my best creation...ever! How special... I love that man!
Not only did he take it to work to show off to everyone, he also showed it to my club ladies last night. Just look at him...!!! He even used correct paper crafting terms and techniques in his description!
Love of my life...sharing my Stampin' Up! creation
I love how you can see our daughter being so attentive to her daddy. :)
And, here I am, just pleased as punch!
Happy and Blessed Stampin' Up! Demo :)
(Thanks to my friend and club member, Laurie, for the photos.)
Tomorrow is my love's birthday and you can bet I'll be trying to impress him with another Stampin' Up! creation.
Being the spouse of a Stampin' Up! demo is something he takes to heart, and loves to be included. Just ask my club ladies. :)
The Lord Is My Banner, Trust God Inspirational Banner
The idea for this banner using the Stampin' Up! Trust God set stamp set has been in my head for a while and it suddenly hit me that using the Canvas Creations from the Spring Catalog would be the perfect partner with the burlap I had purchased from an awesome fabric store on a recent trip to Branson, MO.
There was quite a bit of experimentation that was conducted with the canvas ;) until I got the look I wanted. I wanted to share a quick tip that I discovered so watch the video below for the scoop.

Canvas Creations Tip
inklings:
The Trust God set (wood-126700, clear- 126702) is wonderful! I have used it over and over again.
Canvas Creations(129375)from the Stampin' Up! Spring Catalog is a fabulous product to add texture to any of your stamping projects!

Can masculine cards contain Stampin' Up! embellishments typically thought as strictly feminine? Well, of course!
With the right combination of color and neutrals, you can definitely pull this off. And, I'll tell you another secret...as long as the sentiment is one that will give a little tug to their heart strings, it will be perfect. Sure, some guys won't admit it, but most of them appreciate a little touch of pretty-ness...especially from their honey.
I'd love to show you more ways to use products and stamp sets that you have on hand to design something unique and well,manly. ;)

I recently had a question from a customer regarding organization of Stampin' Up! paper and ink...
I am trying to order paper and ink and get all the colors organized. How do you keep it all in order?
Now for your question on organization....whew!
I have the ink caddy from the catalog for my ink pads. It is really
handy and there is a little tray on top for your reinkers.
I have the little caddy that the complete marker set came in so that keeps those organized.
Now for paper...
I
wish I could say that I had one of those fancy-schmancy racks or
cubbies for my paper, but I don't. I have the plastic "rubber
maid" drawers (12 x 12) that you can stack and come in sets of three. Now,
it's not real pretty, but it keeps it organized.
I have a drawer dedicated for:
each color collection
one for specialty papers like glossy card stock
and vellum
two for the neutrals since I have more of that than
anything. :)
Then, I have a drawer for each color collection for my
scraps. I pull from those drawers all the time! These pieces are great
for punching or die cutting with my Big Shot.
Designer
paper...
I have a small cart with wheels with large hanging files for my
current designer paper. I love it. I keep it right beneath my work
table and can pull from it easily.
The retired or discontinued paper is
in another set of those rubber maid drawers. Since I have to work with and demonstrate the
current stuff, I rarely have packs of anything left over but I do keep
pieces that are big enough for banner pieces, etc.
I used to hoard my
supplies...now I try to use it up!
I keep a
smaller set of drawers on my work table. One drawer has Whisper White
and Very Vanilla scraps for stamping. The other two drawers have my
Stampin' Up! Envelopes.
I hope that gives you
some idea of what works for me.
And, honestly, it's usually a mess in
this work room! But, I'll clean it up and start over when it gets too
bad! I know where everything is...most of the time...and it works
for me.
If you have a stamping, paper crafting, or Stampin' Up! question that you'd like for me to answer, e-mail me!
