Amazing Bewitching Bundle projects; WOW!


I previously shared some of the incredible projects Annette made here and here  She was our Artist of the Month in August; as part of my Flowerbug's Team.  Each month we have a featured artist that showcases a stamp set or bundle.  She chose to use the Bewitching bundle seen here. 

First is a card that reminds you of  'candy corn'.  

Details:

  • She used Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry & White CS – texturing them with the Timeworn Type 3D folder.  
  • The scalloped square is from the Scalloped Contours dies. She colored in the hat & boots with Blends markers.  
  • The greeting is from the Best Witches stamp set. 
  • The glittery hat band is the new Glitter Washi tape seen here

Next is a fun card made with Parakeet Party, Black & White. 

Black & White with a 'pop' of color can be so striking!  The circles are from the Layering circles dies; the stitched background is from the Stitched with Whimsy dies.  She added a band of glitter paper on the hat – from the 2022-24 In Color 6" Glimmer paper.

And lastly today is another Black & White with a pop of color – this time with Real Red. 

Details:

  • Painted Texture is the embossing folder used on the White panel. 
  • The Black & White DSP is from the Black & White Designers DSP in the Holiday catalog
  • She colored the hat with Blends markers and popped it up with dimensionals.  
  • I love the knot of Silver Mesh ribbon on the hat!!
  • The greeting is from the Best Witches stamp set. 

Come back for more fantastic projects featuring the Bewitching Bundle soon!

  • Exploring In Color cards & envelopes & the Paper Pumpkin refill – both while supplies last!


    May's Paper Pumpkin kit was amazing!  It featured our newest In Colors in fabulous scenic themed cards. Here is an alternative card I made with this kit:

    I cut one of the card bases into three strips and adhered them onto a Boho Blue card base (5 1/2" X 8 1/2", scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4").  Each printed piece is 1 7/8" X 5 1/4". The White inside is 2" X 5 1/4".  The greeting, binoculars & pretty label piece are from the kit.  I added a 3/4" strip of Boho Blue CS under it. 

    **Each month my Paper Pumpkin customers receive a big bunch of alternative ideas!  

    You can't get the full kit anymore; the cut off date was May 10th.  But the refill is still available here.  Here's what you get:

    Continuing on from my post yesterday where I shared photos of our visit to London and some from the Norway cruise…..I thought you'd like to see some photos of the hospitality suite on the ship. We were on the Anthem of the Seas, a Royal Caribbean's ship.  

    We were invited to stop in each day to spin for a prize.  Prized were SU logo items like mugs, towels etc.  

    They had lots of goodies for us to enjoy each day.  Jars & jars of candy & treats many of them unique to us as they were from the UK. 


    In the hospitality suite they displayed our swap cards, had games & chairs for us to hang out to visit our friends.  

    We are treated royally by Stampin' Up! but honestly the best things about the trip were time to relax and also spending time with new and old friends we've made over the years.  


    To stay within direct sales compliance I need to add that earning the incentive trip is not typical for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators. Fewer than 1% of demonstrators actually achieve this extraordinary result. I appreciate my customers and team members that make this possible for me each year!

  • Trip photos of London & Norway


    I thought I'd share a few photos of our trip to London and the Norway cruise we just returned from.  The cruise was this year's Incentive trip courtesy of Stampin' Up!  There were over 300 achievers on this trip: I am so proud to be one of them! To stay within direct sales compliance I need to add that this milestone is not typical for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators. Fewer than 1% of demonstrators actually achieve this extraordinary result.

    We spent a few days in London before starting the cruise to Norway.  

    The first day we did a food tour in Soho, London. We love doing food tours – besides tasting local favorites we learn a lot about the area from our guide.  I highly recommend doing one when traveling.  

    This is Chinatown in London. 

    We had a steamed bun filled with barbecue pork inside.  It was really tasty and so unusual!  

    Our last stop was for desert.  These are lemon twists from a local patisserie.  The outside is white chocolate. So delicate and yummy. 

    Below is a huge tiled wall of the history of Soho where we toured. 

     

    The next day we did a personal tour of London where our driver took us anywhere we wanted to go.  My friend Dawn Olchefske and our husbands enjoyed a relaxing drive all over the city.  Below is Big Ben. 


    This is our driver, David.  He let me sit in his black cab for a photo.  The steering wheel was on the right! 

    One of our favorite things was a gondola ride in Olden, Norway.  

    I am not a fan of heights but for some reason this didn't bother me. We traveled up the mountain over 1000 feet in just 5 minutes!  Here's a view of us at the top: 


    This was one of the many, many waterfalls we saw while cruising the fjords in Norway.  It was amazingly beautiful! 

    We had a wonderful time on this trip – seeing the sights, visiting with our friends & being pampered! We are very glad to be back home.  But we miss the food we didn't have to cook ourselves and the room steward who cleans our room each day!

    Back to reality!
