Southern Stars Saturday Swap

Last Saturday was my team meeting for my group, Southern Stars.  It was so much fun ~ information from Leadership, a demonstration and Make & Take by Kathy Winter, updates from Stampin' Up!, lots of M & T projects, refreshments and a card swap and contest.  You will love the cute cards from the card swap ~ on my blog today and tomorrow.

New Textured Boutique Embossing Machine

Happy Snow Day!  I want to tell you about Stampin' Up!'s release of a new product.  The Textured Boutique Embossing Machine!  This is the perfect tool for an embossing beginner or for a quick embossing project.  It's small and compact and that makes it easy to take with you if you are on the road.

Watch a video below to see it in action and download the flyer here.

  • Works with Textured Impressions Embossing Folders to transform ordinary card stock, paper, metallic foil, or vellum into an embossed, textured masterpiece.
  • This machine embosses only; it does not die cut.
  • Comes with 1 pair of Standard Embossing Pads and 1 Mylar Shim.
  • Price $29.95, #132657

NOTE from STAMPIN' UP!:  We offered this product for a short time last year; now it's coming to the 2014-2015 annual catalog. We got a limited supply early, so we want to make them available before the official catalog debut.  However - if this supply sells out before the official release of the new catalog, it won't become available again until that time.

If you would like to see our complete line of Textured Impressions Embossing Folders, click here to visit my store.

Cards from January Stamp Club

One of the projects for my Stamp Clubs this month has been using the stamp set, Wetlands.  It is such a nice set, easy to use and one that is especially nice for those brother, father, uncle, husband or son's cards.  I thought you would like to see some samples.  The first one is from Julia Hite ~ one of my stamp club members and a very creative lady!

It snowed ~ lovely...

SNOW 1

What a perfect day to share this picture with you.  I made the SNOW blocks several years ago but the vase of snowflakes is new.  Tonya Jones, a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator on my team (Southern Stars), created this vase to use as the center piece on tables at a tea party last Saturday afternoon.
