Retiring - Beauty of Friendship

Hi friends!

I'm wishing farewell to products retiring from Stampin' Up's 2022-2023 Annual catalog as well as those retiring from the Jan to April 2023 Mini catalog. Many items from these catalogs are on sale up, some up to 60% off! Click here to shop my online store and the Last Chance Sale.

Today, I'm sending off a stamp set from the 2022 - 2023 Annual Catalog. I've paired it with my favorite masculine-themed stamp set, Wildlife Wonder, which is not retiring. Yay!

Beauty of Frienship #154983

The Beauty of Friendship stamp set offers a bare tree image and different types of tree top images. You can make all type of trees and in different fullness. Plus, you get unique sentiments - friendship and inspiration - as well as a traditional thank you and thinking of you sentiments.

Darker trees

Lighter trees

I paired the bare tree images from the Wildlife Wonder stamp set for what I consider to be a masculine thank you card. 

What do think? Is it a masculine card or not? Do you prefer the tees darker or lighter? Please leave comment with your thoughts. Thanks!

More Sale-a-bration Creativity - Rings of Love DSP with Silver & Gold DSP

 Hi Friends!

Time's ticking away and there's just a few days left before July-August 2022 Sale-a-bration ends! Why is sale-a-bration the best time of year? Because during sale-a-bration you can earn free stamping stuff with a qualifying order.

I'm sharing another project I've made using the free sale-a-bration items I earned by placing a qualifying order. By mashing up 2 sale-a-bration papera - the Rings of Love designer series paper (DSP) and the Silver & Gold DSP - with the twisted ribbon technique, I created this pretty card. I hope this inspires your creativity!

I was inspired by Sally Poole's tutorial for the twisted ribbon technique. Both the Rings of Love and Silver & Gold DSPs  are Sale-a-bration items.

I stamped the Stylish Sketch image with Evening Evergreen ink then went over it with a blending pen to give it watercolored feel. I colored the berries in with soft suede ink and the blender pen. The Rings of Love designer series paper (DSP) coordinated well with stamped image. Both the stamp set and the DSP are Sale-a-bration items.

What is Stamp Club?
A small group of stampers (beginners and experienced stampers) who meet once a month for 6 months, making 3-4 stamping projects each session. I do the design work, prep work, and guide you through each project so you can focus on stamping and learning new techniques. There's even a long-distance option if you don't live locally (for long-distance members, project kits are delivered via US mail). Each club member agrees to place a minimum monthly Stampin' Up! order of $25 (excluding shipping & tax) for 6 months. Stamp club is a great way to learn new stamping techniques while gradually building up your paper crafting supplies.

Stamp Club Benefits

• You'll learn new techniques and get ideas for great stamping projects

• Copies of the Annual Catalog and mini catalogs as they launch

The current 6-month session club has just begun and runs through August. Monthly Stamp Club meets the second Tuesday of the month at my home in Severna Park at 7pm.

These are the projects from our last club meeting
