Golden Honey Birthday Candles! So cute!

March 18, 2020

I saw a card like this online and HAD to make one! I believe the original designer is Libby Fens. Look at this colorful, clever card!

Save

I wish I'd come up with the idea myself but I cased it. Sometimes I feel a bit guilty casing from others. But when people case me I take it as a huge compliment. So I get over my guilt pretty quickly! 😉

The candles are made from the Golden Honey specialty designer paper that was available as part of our Sale-a-Bration offering. It is now sold out but I know many of you own it already so I thought I'd share the card for you. Or maybe you own some similar patterned paper you could use instead.

The candles are about 3/8" wide and 3" tall. The paper is originally white with gold diagonal dashes. I colored them in with Blends markers in light and dark of each color. The colors are Real Red, Flirty Flamingo, Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green, Balmy Blue and Highland Heather.

For the flames I punched out a daisy from the Medium Daisy punch in Gold Glimmer paper. I cut off the petals and adhered them under the top of each candle. Then I popped up each candle with mini dimensionals.

Other Details

The Let's Celebrate You greeting is from Bonanza Buddies set on page 34 of the 2020 January-June mini catalog.
The stitched rectangle is from the Stitched so Sweetly dies
Granny Apple Green

Here's a view of the Stitched So Sweetly bundle; it includes a fabulous stamp set and amazing dies. If you buy it this month you'll earn a free Sale-a-Bration choice! See it here.

Easiest Shaker card you’ll ever make!

January 26, 2021
Giving an interactive card makes the card extra special like shakers, spinners or fun folds. But they can be time consuming or a lot of work.

Save

I used the free 'A Touch of Ink' stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration catalog. You can see it here. That background was made with our Blending Brushes and Bermuda Bay & Calypso Coral ink.

Save

This type of shaker card is truly easy; really! Besides the stamped element you need three basic things:
1. A clear envelope
2. Strong adhesive
3. Sequins, beads or tiny punched pieces
Insert your stamped card stock into the clear envelope, fold the excess envelope over to the back and seal with adhesive leaving one end open. Add your fun filler and seal closed.

Save

The pretty sequins in this card are the Woven Threads sequins in the annual catalog on page 157.

I made a video in December on making one of these shaker cards. Even though it's a Christmas card it's the same technique. Here it is:

Don’t miss out on our best deal!

January 24, 2021
I want to ask you 3 questions:
1. Do you have a long wish list of Stampin' Up! products?
2. Have you ever wished you could get all of your Stampin' Up! products on sale?
3. Have you wanted to see the new catalogs early? And order products early too?!
If you answered yes to any of the above I hope you'll tune in to my Facebook Live on Tuesday evening. I am going to go over the truths & myths of becoming a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. I'm also sharing how I got started.

Here's a link to the event. Opt in and you'll get notified when I'm on.

For those of you not on Facebook, I'll upload it to YouTube on Wednesday here.

I asked my Flowerbug's to share their 'why' and it was so neat to hear their responses! They are so happy they made the decision; I've never had anyone tell me they regretted it. Ever!

Some have been with me more than 10 years and never held a class! And that's okay! A few have had some classes to help them meet their minimums and a few hold regular events.

Here are their most popular reasons:
1. They love the discount of 20% or more on all their purchases.
2. They're enjoying being a part of something so upbeat and rewarding, making friends online and in person.
3. They don't want to give up the Stampin' Up! online community. There are numerous, exclusive websites they have access to with tons of inspiration not seen anywhere else.
4. They really love getting their catalogs early and ordering from them before anyone else.
Fact: You get $125 of product of your choice, 5 packs of 6×6 DSP ($57.50), free Past Paper Pumpkin ($21), no shipping on any of this ($20.35). So instead of $223.85… you pay just $99?! What?

The Starter Kit is always 25% off but during Sale-a-Bration it's an even better deal with the extra 5 packs of Designer paper you get free; a value of $57!

Save

Remember the Starter kit is only $99 and you can choose up to $125 in product of your choice. You get free shipping, a free Paper Pumpkin kit and lots of catalogs & business supplies. Go here to get yours!
