Swap Samples

I have some great Swap Samples from our group meeting in May.  We had a team swap for the Luv2 Stampin GA group meeting.  I hope you enjoy some of the swaps as we really had a great time and love to exchange our swap samples.  We used a variety of products on the samples and had a lot of fun with them. 

There are a lot of flowers and I think they make for some beautiful Spring cards.  You will also find a handful of special occasion cards listed.  I am always happy to have a good selection on cards in a swap.

I hope you enjoyed the array of beautiful cards.  The ideas and inspiration in my group is truly remarkable.  Our projects really come to live with the vibrant colors and products.  The samples were very motivational and uplifting. 

May My Paper Pumpkin

Are you familiar with My Paper Pumpkin?  It’s Stampin’ Up!’s monthly stamping subscription.  In addition to sending the kits, each month Stampin’ Up! releases a video showcasing the latest My Paper Pumpkin kit.  In the month of May, subscribers received their new kit focusing on Father’s Day and all the men in our lives.  I don’t know about you, but I sometimes find it difficult to create a masculine card because it’s always so easy to “pretty” things up.  Stampin’ Up! makes it easier to create what we want with these monthly kits.  Each kit is customized to the time of year or occasion of the month.  Most of all, when you receive the kit, you have all you need to create a handful of beautiful projects to share with you family and friends.  So while you think about it, take a look at what subscribers received in May: 

New to the hobby?  Not sure if you can create the projects?  That is not a problem.  Stampin’ Up! provides step by step instructions and all the products to create the project.  It’s a great way to get started on the road to paper crafting.  More seasoned stampers don’t have to worry either, you can continue to grow your craft supplies and maybe take a step out of the box and create some alternate projects with the same products. 

Visit My Paper Pumpkin and sign up now.  Signing up by June 10th will get you the June kit.  Sign up after June 10th and you will receive the July kit as your first kit.  Visit My Paper Pumpkin today and see what all the fuss is about.  You may just get hooked.

Because you never know what you are going to get, it’s always a surprise.  However, there will be some information released on June 1st regarding the Paper Pumpkin for June so stay tuned.

Spring and Wedding Samples

I thought I would share some wedding and Spring samples.  June is wedding month and here are a few cards for the occasion.  I used the Stamparatus on both cards below to line up the sentiments.  It’s such a great tool for keeping all the stamps in line.  Don’t worry if you did not get a chance to pre-order it.  Get the Stamparatus in the new 2018-2019 Annual Catalog.  It’s a great tool to add to your collection.

Some of the new products used include new Glimmer paper, the sentiment from the new stamp set Detailed with Love. The Stamparatus was used to stamp the sentiments on both cards but it was especially needed for the Detailed with Love stamp.  The Springtime Impressions Thinlits was used for the added floral design of the card.  Adding the Glimmer Paper with the Thinlits enhances the flowers.

Below are a few more card samples.  They highlight anniversaries or weddings. 


The new catalog goes live on Friday.  Some new catalogs have been mailed out.  If you did not receive one yet, you can visit my online store on Friday when the catalog goes live.  You can also send me an email if you would like to get a catalog in your hands. 

 

 

New Color Revamp

The New Color Revamp is coming.  If you are like me, you are anticipating the new colors that will be released when the new catalog goes live. This is the first color change in many years.  To help you adjust, I have a little information for you below.  First, take a look at a video from Stampin’ Up! to help you see all the colors together: 

To further help with the Color Revamp, use flyer below with HEX values to coordinate colors when you need to.  Use the codes to get the exact colors on any digital projects.  The catalog goes live on Friday.  You will be able to find all the new colors in the ink section of my online store.  Click the flyer below to download the flyer: 

The color coach has always been a favorite tool of mine.  It’s a great way to see our colors come together and get an idea on how they will work on projects.  I love creating new color combos and making my projects come alive.  This online color coach can give you some wonderful color combinations using the new colors: 

In Color Coach

The new catalog will bring lots of changes.  Therefore, feel free to contact me with any questions you have regarding the current or new colors.  I know you will have so much to look at when the new catalog goes live.  Remember, there will also be a lot of new Designer Series Papers that will coordinate with these new colors.  

Lastly, below is a picture of the new In Color collection featured in the new in cases.  The new cases also feature more of the color on the cover and you can place the color labels where you want.  Since you have options with the labels, put them where you want.

I hope you are as excited as I am for the new catalog and the Color Revamp.
