Star of Light Stamp-a-Stack Part 2

I designed this card to go along with my previous one for my Star of Light Stamp-a-Stack. Hope you like it!

Star of Light Showstopper

This is my favorite card I've ever made to date. Which is saying something. In the eight years I've been a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, I've made A LOT of cards. But this is by far my favorite stamp set.

This month, I did a Stamp-a-stack involving this card and one I'll show you tomorrow TWICE. Plus, we made it at out demonstrator sneak peek meeting in August! So fun :) I love getting together with my demo friends and stamping together! We got to do this at our event in Vancouver last weekend. I wish all of my stamping friends could be there with me! It's demonstrators only though - so if you want to come, you gotta buy a starter kit. Darn. You need to save $100 on a pile of awesome product. Poor you. PLUS, I am throwing in a paper copy of the Occasions catalog for the first five people who sign up with me this month! That's a month earlier than you'd receive the catalog otherwise... which in itself is worth it in my opinion! I love getting to see product before anyone else. Probably my very favorite thing about being a demonstrator. :)

Anyways, BACK to my card! It's using the Star of Light stamp set & framelits (see link below), and it's simple yet gorgeous. Although, I will tell you, diecutting 90 of those stars will take you a li'l while. Get a good show on and get going. :) Dies like this make me so happy that we can get such intricate images without fussy cutting!!! They're just so pretty. A tip for my card - I scored and folded the copper foil star at the back just to give it a little more dimension. That way, it reflects the light a little bit more and is just that much prettier!

Joy to the World Part Deux

Now how do you like this one?! I needed a super simple yet super cute card for a class I have coming up. This fits the bill perfectly. And I just can't get over the chalkboard look - but just how simple it is. It's Whisper White Craft Ink on Basic Black Cardstock. Easy-peasy. Some of the girls I've showed this to have mentioned that the ink seemed to dry much quicker than they remembered. My tip is to do your craft ink stamping first, and then set your pieces aside while you prepare the rest of your card. Also, your craft white ink pad will probably come super, super juicy - after you use it a bit it will be less juicy and will stamp nicer! Remember - this is a foam ink pad and you don't need to press your stamp in there super hard. Just tap, tap, tap on top and you'll get a nice stamped image!!

Hope you enjoy! If you like this card enough to want to make a bunch of them, I'm offering a Stamp-a-Stack for this card and the one I posted yesterday. $25 for 12 cards, including envelopes! First person to message me and set a date gets to pick the date!

OR, you can just purchase the products needed to make this one and make a bunch of them at home! See the list below of products I used!

Joy to the World!

Well, 'tis the season for getting ready for Christmas, I guess! Here's a little cutie I whipped up yesterday. And it's actually pretty simple - which if you know me at all, you'll know is no small miracle. Which also means that there aren't THAT many products in this so it's a pretty economical card to reproduce too!! I love that little angel! She's so cute!

Now that I'm thinking of it, this is a pretty Stamp-a-Stack-worthy card. And just wait until you see the other one I made with this set. SO CUTE! These two would make a great stamp-a-stack. If you think you'd like to make these, then message me and we'll set up a class! $25 for 12 cards!

What's your favorite stamp image in the holiday catalog this year?

Upcoming Christmas Stamp-a-Stack - just a couple more days to register! And a BIG announcement.

Hey everyone! 

Thanks for stopping by to check out my blog! I'm going to try to be posting on here regularly (2-3 times a week) - so here's a photo of the class we'll be doing this Sept. 30:

This is the To You & Yours Shaker Card kit from the Holiday Catalog, p. 4. When you come for the class, I will provide everything you need - you only need your adhesive (and if you forget that or don't have any, I have some for sale in my studio!). The cost is $40 for this class - that includes the kit, and use of all stamp sets and ink pads needed to complete the project. RSVP to me at 604-997-5501 or earlandjenilee@shaw.ca by Wednesday, Sept. 16, 2015. (I extended the registration date a bit because I love you guys) :) 

I also have only TWO spots left for my Stamp Your Heart Out Retreat coming up November 13-15. If you haven't secured your registration with your payment yet, do so now! Space is limited and we are almost full! And you don't want to miss out. Retreat is awesome!  

ALSO... I have a big goal this month. And I only have two weeks to complete it, so I need your help! I have a milestone I'm trying to reach by the end of the month and if I reach it, I am doing a draw for a $100 Stampin' Up! shopping spree! You can earn an entry by putting an order in with me this month. You can earn 5 extra entries by referring a friend to me this month when they place an order with me. You can also earn 5 entries if you sign up as a demonstrator with me this month. TWO weeks people! I have a goal and we are going to celebrate if I reach it!

You guys are the best. Thanks for being there for me, and for always being so encouraging! I love my stampin' friends!!
