News from Convention 2008 - 20th Anniversary

2008-08-14T17:03:00.000-07:00

The Stampin' UP! 20th Anniversary 2008 Convention was held in Salt Lake City at the Salt Plaza Convention Center.

At Convention 2008 on Friday, August 1, Shelli Gardner, CEO and co-founder, announced Stampin' UP!s partnership with Sizzix, and the launch of the Sizzix Big Shot for Stampin' Up! die cutting machine. This exciting new product cuts through multiple layers and materials to create beautiful die cuts for all kinds of projects. Also introduced is a line of Stampin' Up! exclusive dies. The Big Shot will be available to order on September 2nd, so make sure to mark your calendar to order your Big Shot. There will be select sizzix die cuts and exclusive die cuts available with the Big Shot. Stampin’ Up will also be coming out with even more die cuts in the future.

When we went to lunch on July 31st in the gathering room, to our surprise each table had a plate of these wonderful cupcakes. Not only were they pretty, they were very yummy! That's a chocolate waffer on the top.

Decor Elements Phase 2 - We got to see some of the new Decor Elements that will be available this fall. In addition to new images, phase 2 will also offer new colors. Many of the new images are holiday related and will be available to customers beginning October 1st. Here's some sneak peeks.

24/7 online ordering. Starting this Fall customers can order Stampin'Up! product directly online. Just think, when you wake up in the middle of the night with a great idea to stamp that special project, and you want to place your order right away before you forget, you can go online and place that order immediately. More information to come.

Celebrando Creatividad, a catalog supplement featuring spanish language stamp sets is now available. You can view it from the side-bar.

Country Living partnership - For the second year Stampin'Up! will partner with Country Living magazine to offer an exclusive holiday kit. The kit will include stamps, designer paper, and accessories; and will be featured in a 21 page spread in the magazine's December issue. Watch for it on the newstand. I'll be scheduling a class in the near future incorporating this kit. Keep checking my events on my Stampin' UP! website.

My Camera Died...The Blue Screen of Death, Oh My!

2008-08-11T19:44:00.000-07:00

Yes, I've been missing in action since I returned home from convention. The worst fear I had before leaving convention was that my camera would die. Since I was having problems getting clear photos, 1 out of every 5, I thought it was the photographer's (my) problem and not the camera. So I purchased the 82 page manual for my camera and read it on the flight to SLC. I learned quite a bit about my camera, lots of features I didn't know I had, but I really couldn't find out what I was doing wrong. On opening day of convention my camera started making some sluggish sounds, and then the "blue screen of death", a "d" and a bunch of numbers on the screen. So I have no photos from convention to share with you. However, I have some good friends who took photos and I'm going to grab some and post them on my blog in the next few days.

WOW Flowers

2008-07-25T20:48:00.001-07:00

I thought I was done yesterday with my swaps for convention, but I couldn't resist today playing with the new In Colors. I love these colors together. I made a dozen of these cards to add to my swaps.
Stamps: Wow Flowers (new in the Fall/Winter Idea Book & Catalog)
CS: Kiwi Kiss, Pacific Point, Tangerine Tango, Whisper White
Ink: Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss, Pacific Point, Tangerine Tango
Accessories: Stampin' Dimensionals, Snail Adhesive, Rich Regal Brads, Punches: 1/16", 1", 1 3/8" & Scallop Circles, Scallop Edge, Boho Blossoms

Lovely as a Tree - Faux Tile Technique

2008-07-24T19:50:00.000-07:00

Stamps: Lovely as a Tree, Wow Flowers (will be in the Fall/Winter Idea Book & Catalog)
CS: Barely Banana, Garden Green, Rose Red, Whisper White
Ink: Barely Banana, Basic Black, Cameo Coral, Certainly Celery, Garden Green, Rose Red, VersaMark
Accessories: Window Punch, 1 1/4" Circle Punch, Snail Adhesive, Clear Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Sponges, Bone Folder, ruler
I scored the Whisper White card stock every 1/2" diagonally in both directions to create the faux tile. I stamped the trees and then punched out a 1 1/4" circle from a piece of scrap paper to make the mask around the sun and sponged inside the circle with Barely Banana ink to create the sun . I then used the 1 1/4" circle and masked the sun so I could sponge the colors around the sun. When I was done sponging the card, I put VersaMark all over the image and embossed with Clear Embossing Powder. Unfortunately, this scan does not show how the card shines. You just can't beat a hand-held card.

Lovely as a Tree

2008-07-22T18:43:00.000-07:00

I used paint chips to stamp the trees using Craft Basic Black ink and clear embossing powder. When the cards were complete I thought it needed a little bling, so I used a 2-Way Glue Pen and Dazzling Diamonds glitter. Had I thought about this while stamping the trees, I would have substituted the clear embossing powder with Iridescent Ice embossing powder. It would have been easier and not quite as messy. The card on the left was made with Tempting Turquoise and Taken with Teal cardstock. The card on the right is Almost Amethyst and Elegant Eggplant. My photos don't do them justice. Maybe it's the photographer that doesn't know how to take pictures. I sure could use some photo tips or enroll in a photography class.

Other supplies used: Basic Black and Whisper White card stock,
Classic Basic Black ink, Crop-a-dile, Tempting Turquoise and Silver brads, Stampin' Dimensionals, Snail Adhesive. I will be trading these cards at convention next week.

Below is another card I've been playing with. I like the design, but not the colors. So back to the stamp room I go to play some more. If I'm pleased with the results, I'll be bringing some of these to trade also.
Technique: Faux Tile

I scanned the two photos at the top and they are below. Look what a difference in color and detail it makes. Now I'm really worried about my camera, as it's the only one I have and am taking it to convention. I certainly hope my photos come out better than the ones I take at home.

25% Discount on Selected Retiring Accessories

2008-07-21T17:29:00.000-07:00

July 21st through August 10th or while supplies last, Stampin' UP! is offering a 25% discount on selected retiring accessories. Check here to view the list or see the link on the side bar. Contact me and I will help you with your order.

Stitched Exotics

2008-07-18T19:45:00.000-07:00

I'm on a roll today. This is another one of my convention swaps. I used various patterns from the Old Olive Prints Designer Series Papers on the cards. I love these colors together. I chose this combination from the Color Coach as I did for my other swaps. What a great tool!
Stamps: Stitched Exotics, Heard from the Heart (will be in the Fall/Winter Catalog)
CS: Bravo Burgundy, More Mustard, Whisper White
Ink: Classic Basic Black, More Mustard, Old Olive, Craft Elegant Eggplant
Accessories: Old Olive Designer Paper, Crystal Clear Embossing Powder, 1/4" Elegant Eggplant Grosgrain Ribbon, Snail Adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals, Earth Elements Buttons, Mini Glue Dots, Paper Snips, Heat Tool, Ticket Corner Punch, Stamp-a-ma-jig

Garden Whimsy Tri-Fold Card with a Twist

2008-07-18T14:41:00.001-07:00

Yet another card swap for convention. The instructions for this card can be found at http://www.SplitCoastStampers in the resource section.

Stamps: Garden Whimsy

CS: Barely Banana, Certainly Celery, Rose Red, Whisper White

Ink: Basic Black, Rose Red

Accessories: Rose Red Designer Paper, Snail Adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals, Paper Snips, Certainly Celery 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon

Here are the inside photos.

Wild About You!

2008-07-18T14:28:00.001-07:00

Here is another convention swap card I made yesterday.
Stamps: Wild About You!
Card Stock: Always Artichoke, Ballet Blue, Creamy Caramel, More Mustard, Real Red, Whisper White
Ink: Always Artichoke, Ballet Blue, Basic Black, Creamy Caramel, More Mustard, Real Red
Accessories: Circle, Punches 1/2", 3/4", 1", Snail Adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals, sponge, 3M single line masking tape, deco scissors
Technique: Faux Postage

Garden Whimsy

2008-07-11T23:43:00.000-07:00

The scan of this card does not do it justice. I used mini glue dots on the butterfly's wings and covered them with the purple cosmo glitter. The scan makes the glitter look so dark, but it's really lighter and it sparkles. Some cards you just need to see in person.

Stamps: Garden Whimsy, Whimsy Wheel

CS: Whisper White

Ink: Almost Amethyst, Pumpkin Pie

Accessories: Almost Amethyst Designer Paper, Snail Adhesive, Mini Glue Dots, Cosmo Glitter, Pewter HodgePodge Hardware, Large Oval Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals, 1/4" Whisper White Grosgrain Ribbon

Fun & Fast Notes

2008-07-11T17:58:00.001-07:00

This is another swap for convention.

Stamps: Fun & Fast Notes, Garden Whimsy

CS: Barely Banana, Pixie Pink, Sage Shadow, Whisper White

Ink: Basic Brown

Markers: Barely Banana, Blush Blossom

Accessories: Close to Cocoa Designer Paper, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, Scallop Punch, Snail Adhesive

I love this hedgehog. I'm hoping Stampin' UP! brings back some more hedgehogs in the new catalog. They always make me smile :>)

Party Hearty!

2008-07-11T17:52:00.000-07:00

This is my convention SCS dinner swap.

Stamps: Party Hearty! (will be in the new Fall/Winter Catalog )

CS: Cameo Coral, Certainly Celery, Tempting Turquoise, Whisper White

Ink: Basic Black, Cameo Coral, Tempting Tuquoise

Markers: Cameo Coral, Tempting Turquoise

Accessories: 3/4" Circle & Scallop Punches, Scallop Edge Punch (new in the Fall/Winter Catalog), Tempting Turquoise 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon, Snail Adhesive, Tempting Turquoise Designer Paper, Stampin' Dimensionals, magnet strips

The magnet is on the back of the scallop. The scallop can be removed and used as a refrigerator magnet. Under the scallop is another cupcake, and behind the cupcake is another magnet. The first two cards I made, I used the corner rounder to make the scallops. I just knew I'd never be able to make 46 cards with the corner rounder, or my hands would fall off, then I wouldn't be able to swap at convention. I love the new Scallop Edge punch. It's very easy to use, and it beats using the corner rounder to make all those scallops. I'm so glad I was able to preorder it. It's a must have accessory.

All New Stamp Sets Are Die Cut!

2008-07-01T00:01:00.000-07:00

When it comes to quality stamp sets, Stampin' Up! has been an industry leader for several years. Our original, exclusive stamps have earned the prestigious Creating Keepsakes Readers' Choice Award for best rubber stamps eight years in a row, and every year we work to make them even better!
We're excited to announce that all new stamp sets in the Fall-Winter 2008 Idea Book & Catalog (including new hostess sets) will be die cut for your convenience! We know you enjoy the flexibility of custom mounting your stamps, and with these die-cut sets, all you'll need to do is pop, peel, and place before you begin stamping.
Only our new stamps will be die cut; sets carried over from the last catalog and those on the dormant list will still require trimming. But, each new set will feature a die cut icon so you will have no problems identifying die-cut sets.

Décor Elements

2008-06-30T23:10:00.000-07:00

Stampin' UP! is thrilled to announce a new Stampin’ Up! product line: Décor Elements. Our Décor Elements product line is self-adhesive vinyl art for walls, mirrors, windows, or other hard, smooth surfaces. It is an extension of our Definitely Decorative home décor line, which is another way to express your creativity--just on a larger canvas than a card or scrapbook page! Décor Elements takes that same idea and uses a different medium to accomplish the same mission, making your home a beautiful representation of your style. And it’s inexpensive compared to painting, framing art, or buying new furniture!

I’m Officially a Blogger, Whoo Hoo!

Welcome to my new blog. I decided to get with 21st century technology, and jump into blogging with both feet. Well maybe not both feet right away, rather one foot at a time until the water warms up. I hope to start posting and sharing shortly. First things first, I need to finish setting up this blog. Stay tuned.
