Back from Disney World – the 2024 Stampin’ Up! incentive trip


We had a wonderful time on the Stampin' Up! annual incentive trip to Disney World.  We got home late last night and even though we hoped to have a restful trip we were quite exhausted. These North Dakotans were not ready for 96 degree heat!  

I'll share a few of our favorite photos today and more of Stampin' Up! products tomorrow. 

This is what we saw on the TV screen when we arrived to our room: 

Below is the view from our room in the Grand Floridian Resort at Disney World:

This basket was found in our room at the end of the first night there.  A super neat felt basket (that folded flat) filled with some of our favorite snacks & beverages (a survey was sent to us last fall). 

The beautiful nightly fireworks we could see from our resort. We spent many evenings at the outdoor cafe visiting with our friends and enjoying them. 

I had to get a picture with Sara (SU CEO) with the paper chain background!  

Our friends, Dan & Lori Heiling, Susie & Deke Wood and us at Hollywood Studios.

We at at the 50's Primetime Cafe in Hollywood Studios.  

I'll share more photos tomorrow!

  • Look at these fabulous floral cards!


    Here are a few more of my Flowerbug's Team swap cards for July: 

    First is one made by Paula who featured the Color & Contour Bundle seen here.  She stamped each flower and die-cut it with the Scalloped Contour dies. She also stamped the other flower image for the stem and leaves.  That large scalloped rectangle is also included in this bundle.  There are actually 5 scalloped rectangle in this set! 

    Her colors are Daffodil Delight, Fresh Freesia and Polished Pink. The spatter background image is in this set as well.  Her greeting is stamped on a Tailored Tag punch.  

    Next is a pretty card by Marilyn.  She used the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set.  Her background is from the new Stitched Greenery die seen here.  She also used the Hand-Penned Designer paper and Circles dies.  

    Love this color combination of Mint Macaron, Daffodil Delight and Highland Heather.  She colored in her floral image with Blends markers.  Love that sparkly Highland Heather ribbon!  

    Lastly is a pretty card made by Roxann featuring Positive Thoughts & the coordinating Nature's Thoughts dies.  That wonderful background texture is from the Tasteful Textile 3D folder.  

    Her colors feature Petal Pink, Daffodil Delight, Polished Pink, Olive and Soft Sea Foam. There are lots of pretty die-cuts & details on her card!  The greeting is one of my very favorites.  

    I'll share more of our swap cards tomorrow!

  • Colorful swap cards with Pattern Party hostess paper


    This weekend we held our monthly Flowerbug's Team swap and the theme was to make cards with yellow.  It could be a lot, or just a little.  We thought it was a great 'summertime theme'.  I'm so proud of their cards; they are all quite talented!  

    This first card was made by Barb.  She used the Back on Your Feet stamp set, the Basic Border & Meadow dies.  

    I just love how she colored the giraffe the same colors as her designer paper!  What a well coordinated card!  I believe she used our amazing Blends markers for coloring.   And look at her inside!  She used the extra die-cut edges to decorate the inside to match!  

    Next is Mary's card featuring the same Pattern Party designer paper.  You can only get this paper with hostess rewards. You can see it on page171 of the annual catalog; or click here.  

    She used the Tailor Made Tags and the Biggest Wish stamp set.  She also colored her clear rhinestones with a Blends marker before adding them to the tag.  

    I'll share more of our swap cards tomorrow!

  • Right Behind You; so cute!


    I chose the Right Behind You stamp set for my Flowerbug's Team swap this month.  Here's my card:

    This set is adorable!  And it has such fun greetings to go with the tandem bicycle as well. Click here to see it. 

    Details:

    • I used the 'ground' image to create grass by stamping it numerous times.
    • I used the Basic Border dies seen here to sponge the clouds.  Get my tips on this in the video below or click here. 
    • I used a mask to add the puppy in the basket. 
    • The greeting die-cut is from the Messages die. 
    • I used Stampin' Blends to color in the images.
    • I added a Metallic pearl to the spokes in the bicycle. 
    • The sun is simply sponged in the corner with Daffodil Delight ink. 

    As you can see it's an easy fun fold card.  Simply add one extra score line to your normal A2 card.  Score the 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" Crushed Curry card at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4".  The Basic Gray is 3 7/8" X 5 1/8" and the White is 3 3/4" X 5".

    I added grass and flowers to the inside to pull it all together.  

    Click on the video below to watch me make this card; it's the first project on this FB Live replay.  *You can also see how I made the Pinwheel Tower cards in the photo below.
