Scrapbooking with On the Go

April 30, 20251 Comment

Let me make you feel better about scrapbooking, as we gear up for National Scrapbook Day this Saturday, May 3, 2025! I’m working on photos from 2006 (I am indeed 20 years behind) and my style is “Git ‘er done!” Take a look:

The “On The Go” Suite Collection is a must have for memory keepers who also love to travel! It includes a cling stamp set, coordinating dies, Designer Series Paper, suitcase boxes, twine and puffy stickers (which I will be adding to my page, now that I remembered I have them 🤪). Of course, each product can be purchase individually, as well.

One more way to use your alphabet dies (and in the spirit of the #tgifc522 product challenge) is to use the negative section of the letters you’ve cut out:

Remember to save the centers of letters – like the O, R, P and A – and if you put an adhesive sheet on your paper before die cutting, your letters, the centers and your negative image will already be sticky to put on the page, just like a sticker.

I’m not a person who thinks every scrapbook page has to be a show-piece, or even have a bold title. Especially when creating multiple pages of one event, give yourself permission to make them simple. The people who are looking at your albums are there for the PHOTOS & MEMORIES, not the design and composition! Here’s my next page (another day of our Orlando adventure in 2006) and in case you were wondering, I prefer 8.5″ x 11″ pages because the albums I put them in fit easier on my bookshelf:

Seriously. Just get those photos on the page. Add a cute embellishment, then let your family flip through the walk down memory lane.

Seasons of Fun: Host with the Most!

October 22, 2021October 22, 2021Leave a comment

When a stamp set works for more than one holiday, it’s a great investment…and when you can get it at a discount, that’s a no brainer!

The Seasons of Fun stamp set is one you can choose as part of your Stampin’ Rewards for just $12 when you host a party!

Did you know that an order of $150 or more COUNTS as a party? That’s right…you don’t have to invite people over to qualify for the benefits of hosting, you can just gather orders or place your own qualifying order in my Stampin’ Store.

With this set of cards, I used the SAME LAYOUT and made a card for Halloween, Fall and Christmas. Because the Seasons of Fun stamp set doesn’t have any words, I paired it with the very versatile Banner Year stamp set for the greetings:

Turn the layout and add strips of Designer Series Paper instead of just one piece:

Or swap sides:

Aren’t these kids the cutest? It’s fun to color them with Stampin’ Blends and easy to celebrate all the Fall-idays.

This host-exclusive set is only available during the current mini catalog period…one more reason to host a party (or place a qualifying order) before the Seasons of Fun stamp set retires on January 3, 2022. I’ll help you host an event online or in your home ~ let’s plan it!

With the kickoff of the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog yesterday, it’s pumpkin-spice and everything nice for papercrafting dreamers!

When it comes to stamps, there are styles for every personal preference from elegant to whimsical in the holiday catty, but today I wanted to share a few hidden gems you will want not want to miss!

These mini pizza boxes (item #144645) are perfect for tiny treats, cookies and 3×3 cards (3×3 envelopes are also available~ item #145829). These are sure to be extremely popular, so order early!

Customers often ask if we sell Stampin’ Write Markers individually~ and while we don’t usually, I always snag them when they are offered in a two-pack like the Old Olive and Real Red Markers for just $7 a pair (item #145059).

You may miss these acetate card boxes on first glance because they are clear~ but they are AMAZING for cards with dimension or a set of cards as a gift or just to use as pretty packaging and with 10 in a package for $6.50, you’ll find plenty of reasons to fill them up! (item 144628).

Finally, there is a fabulous opportunity to earn this exclusive Merry Patterns stamp set FREE just by hosting a party before October 31, 2017 that totals $300 or more! This is in *addition* to the Stampin’ Rewards you earn as a hostess and can be a workshop, customer or online order. I have only a few open dates left for the next few months, so book your party soon (at your house or mine or online!)
