Stampin' Up!'s Weekly Deals

Here are this week's deals!!




And, here are some samples using the Cotton Paper!  It's so cool - you can punch and die cut it, and scrunch it up, but it's very durable!  You can punch and die cut several layers at a time!  These are some projects we made at my scrapbook retreat in August:

This Stampin' Up! Scrapbook Page uses the Cotton Paper to make the cute flowers plus: Cherry on Top Designer Paper and Washi Tape and the Watermelon Wonder Dotted Lace Trim.  The flowers are the small flower from the Flower Fair Framelits and a 1/8" Mini Silver Brad.  www.stampwithjennifer.blogspot.com

My Founder's Circle Swap

I am so lucky to be named in the top 100 demonstrators in the US last year!  I'm on a free trip from Stampin' Up! right now called Founder's Circle for the top 100 in the US and top 20 in Canada.  We get to come to St George, Utah and be pampered for a few days!  And, it's all thanks to YOU - my customers and my downline (demonstrators in my group)!!  So, THANKS!!

We have a card swap, and I made 110 of these!  This was also a card we made at the Holiday Extravaganza last week.


This card uses the new Peaceful Pines Stamp Set and Perfect Pines Framelits (they come in a bundle!).  It also uses the Boughs & Berries Embossing Folder, the Red Foil, the 1/4" Striped Ribbon (comes with Real Red and Garden Green), Winter Wonderland Embellishments, and the Christmas Greetings Thinlits.  The card swap is tonight - I'll get 110 new samples!! 

Have a great day!

Projects from my Customer Appreciation Event!

Hey everyone,

I had a great Customer Appreciation event this year!  Thanks to everyone who attended, and I missed those who couldn't make it!  We made six projects using Stampin' Up! stuff - three cards, a 12x12 scrapbook page, a square pillow box for Halloween treats, and a cute cellophane bag with treats!  I believe I copied at least one of these (the remarkable one)!  

 I appreciate you all!  I have to give a shout out to my helpers, too.  Kris and Landa worked VERY HARD all day, and Isabelle helped set up and worked all day, too!  Of course, Scott helped with set up and clean up, too.  I couldn't do these events without my helpers!!

Here are the project directions and supply lists.

Have a great week!  It's back to school week for us.

Thanks!
