Quick Notecard idea with the Banner Sayings bundle

January 20, 2026

I needed to send a few special cards to my Team members this weekend and so I created these cute notecards:

The large piece of designer paper is 4″ X 3″ and the bottom strip is 4″ X 1″. I added a 1/4″ strip of textured Coastal Cabana between them (I found it in my scraps).

I chose to make notecards because the package I was sending their prizes in was narrow and these fit perfectly.
Did you know we carry pre-scored notecards with envelopes? The package includes 20 cards and 20 envelopes for just $10. You can see them here.

I chose the Hobby Haven designer paper because of it’s colors and ‘hobby’ themed prints. See it here. It’s part of our Online product selection.

I decided to feature the Banner Sayings bundle for a few reasons. It’s quick with the coordinating punch and the greeting I chose fit my needs perfectly. Click here to see it. The new Triple Banner punch was out of stock for weeks! But now it’s back.

TWO new June specials! more Norway cruise photos

June 1, 2023

Stampin' Up! has two NEW promotions in June & they both start today!

First is a Starter Kit Promotion – an extra $30 in free product with purchase of the $99 starter kit. This means that you can choose up to $155 in product of your choice for $99. Yes; all of your choice plus FREE shipping too!

Save

Click here to get yours. Or message me here with any questions you may have.

Remember that purchasing the starter kit does not mean you have to hold classes or 'sell' Stampin' Up! products. It just means you want the 20% discount on your purchases. You can be any sort of Demonstrator you want – enjoy the discount only or hold events, or turn it into a business. YOU are in charge and whatever you choose to do is just fine with me and Stampin' Up!.

I'd love to have you join my team of Flowerbug's! We're a fun group consisting of all types of Demo's.

The second promotion is the Designer Paper Sale! 13 different packs of DSP are discounted 15%.

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.

Save

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

Save

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.

Save

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

Save

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.

Save

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

May 31, 2023

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.

Save

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

Save

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

Save

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

Save

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.

Save

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

Save

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

Save

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:

Save

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

Save

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!

I simply used a few pieces of the Zoo Crew designer paper and added a stamped flag greeting with twine on a long strip of Lost Lagoon. Cute & Quick!
