Happy Independence Day (and Stamps to Celebrate the Occasion)

Happy Independence Day! 

Today, as we celebrate our Freedom, it's always nice to say "thank you" to those in our Armed Forces (and their families) who have served & sacrificed to protect our way of life.  This year, I'm especially proud of the two patriotic stamp sets that Stampin' Up! has available.  They're pretty much a must-have for any military family or card ministry:

Courage  (115330)  $19.95

 

Service & Sacrifice  (115992)  $18.95

You can purchase either of these sets simply by clicking on the photos above.  Or if you'd like to order both sets, you can find them quickly by visiting my Online Ordering Page and typing the word "military" into the search box.

Happy Fourth, and God Bless America!

New Catalog and Special Offers

Today is the first day to order from the new 2009-2010 Idea Book & Catalog, and I must say that this is the best catalog I've seen since I became a Demonstrator in 2003.  I absolutely *love* the new Collections (wedding, kid's birthday, etc), and I think the selection of stamp sets is just out of sight!

Stampin' Up! also has several promos going on right now, including a "Deal of the Week" and two great new Demonstrator Starter Kit Options.  I'll be sharing the info over the next few days, but if you can't wait for my detailed posts you can visit my "Specials" page for an overview.

So browse the online catalog now, and order anytime! 

Cupcake Birthday Thank-You Card

These are the thank-you notes that I made for my daughter's second birthday--If you gave her a gift, they'll be in your mailbox shortly!  I liked that they were easy to make, have a gender-neutral color scheme, and really do look cute if I do say so myself! 

Here's the supply list:

• Stamps:  Wagon Full of Fun (only available through June 30th), Sincere Salutations
• Ink:  Basic Black (Craft & Classic); Close to Cocoa, Certainly Celery, So Saffron, & Bashful Blue markers.
• Paper:  Certainly Celery, Baja Breeze, & Naturals White card stock; retired Designer Series paper*.
• Tools & Accessories:  Black embossing powder, embossing heat tool, powder pals, & embossing buddy; retired Sale-A-Bration 2009 Ribbon Bundle*.

*Suggested alternatives for the retired items I used:

• Designer Series Paper:  So Saffron Patterns DSP, Sweet Slumber Specialty Paper, Jackpot DSP, Washington Apple DSP, Flock Together DSP, Tea Party DSP, or Sunshine Garden Simply Scrappin' Kit.
• Ribbon Bundle:  5/8" Certainly Celery Grosgrain Ribbon.

I did also do a couple of these cards using rub-ons instead of the "thanks so much" stamp for the greeting.  Depending on the color of the rub-on, you can put it in the same spot as the stamp or try it right across the ribbon.  Give it a try on your own cards, then post a comment or email me with a photo or a link!
