Well, it is absolutely official -- the new catalog is now here and the new STUFF is available! You can never have too much STUFF -- at least, that is my motto. I'm sure you are as guilty as me about keeping something you know you will use SOMEDAY. And, you also may occasionally reach for something you know you have, but where is it? If this describes you, welcome to the sisterhood of stampers and scrappers!
This card uses the new In Color Rich Razzleberry as a card base. I added a layer of Whisper White and on top of this, added a layer of the DSP from Razzleberry Lemonade. I layered the Rich Razzleberry grosgrain ribbon on Whisper White and added three brads from the Fire Brads collection. I love that the In Color grosgrain ribbon is polka-dotted on one side and solid on the other -- a great way to stretch your crafting dollars!
Next, I added the rose from the Fifth Avenue Floral stamp set that I had created earlier in a practice run using the Floating Reinker Technique. I popped this up with dimensionals before adding it to the card.
Finally, I used the Chit Chat Rubons and added my sentiment. I've just recently discovered how easy using Stampin' Up's! rub-ons is -- I had no idea and I've totally missed the boat! The rub-ons I had previously used from craft stores were never easy to adhere and ours our fantastic. Let's just say you get no grief! I have been using them for the last month and have had no problems AT ALL. If you haven't tried them, you should!
For all of you stampers and scrappers who would "like to have it all", Stampin' Up! has a special deal JUST FOR YOU! You can actually sign up for $85, receive a Mini-Demonstrator Kit, and receive full demonstrator benefits. What do you get for $85? Good question! You receive all of the In Color Ink Pads, Whisper White cardstock, In Color Cardstock and the For All You Do stamp set on page 118 of the new catalog, as well as all the business forms that come in the full demonstrator kit . You would then be eligible for all Stampin' Up! Demonstrator benefits and receive your instant income when you order. I welcome the privilege of sharing with you all the benefits of becoming a demonstrator -- discount demonstrator, hobby demonstrator, or business demonstrator -- full demonstrator benefits apply in each category -- and would be happy to give you the scoop. When would be a good time for you to hear the details? This offer is available through August 31, so don't think about it too long.
If you know someone you think would be a great demonstrator, or someone who spends a ton of money on Stampin' Up! products, share this message with them. The only thing you have to lose by allowing me to give you (or them) the scoop is a bit of time and I'll give you a gift just for listening. If you've ever thought about it, now is the time to find out the specifics and think it through. Remember, no pressure, just details.
I'll be back tomorrow with Blogger's Challenge. Somehow, I've got to get my project created tonight and I've no idea what I'm going to come up with! See you then! Have a fabulous, God-filled day!
