Stamp Ink Paper: Colors #81

Hardcore card makers take any moment to make a card serious. We begin a month or two before the date!  Well, at least we try.  Today’s card is for the Stamp Ink Paper Challenge this month and I love that less is truly more!

It would be a great honor to be able to see your talent on the challenge.

The Details:

  • No Stamping.  It’s what I love about out one word thinlit sentiments!  You can see all the thinlits here.
  • The Power of Dimensionals.  Did you know our Stampin’ Dimensionals could be cut with scissors?  That’s exactly what I did to pop up the “love”.  I used ONE dimensional and can you say “WHOA!”  You can see in the photo below the off the card pop it gives the card.  Love it!
     
  • Just for kicks. Silver metallic thread was added to the back of the boots to just for fun.

Use Host Code above and receive a gift from me when you place an on-line order via my on-line store.  Do not use if your order is more than $150. You will receive additional Host Reward and you’ll automatically receive a gift from me.

FREE SHIPPING?  You can do this each time a new seasonal catalog is introduced.  You’ll NEVER ever have to make any sales and you just let your membership expire.  Three ways steps:  

  1. Join as a hobby demonstrator when you want to place an order that equals $99.
  2. Stampin’ Up! will literally GIVE YOU an additional $26 in product…WHATEVER you want for only $99.
  3. …and most important! FREE shipping.

There’s no risk, no obligation to purchase anything further and no penalty to drop!  Why not give Stampin’ Up! and my Circle of Pals a test drive and start building your $99 Starter Kit here.

Kind Regards,
Maggie

Sending Some Stampin’ Up! Love

Love is heard, seen, and felt. It is heard when kind words are spoken to complete strangers. A simple compliment or a hello will make a good day better.  Kind words of encouragement, a compliment, or a simple wave of the hand shows love for human kind.  It is seen with a hug, a blowing of a kiss, a pat on head, or a gesture of a thumbs up. Everyday we should strive to brighten someone’s day, even a stranger, your children, an aging parent, your spouse, or your co-workers.  It’s nice to hear the words, “Love You”, but a word said with love goes further than you think.  So, today and everyday, go ahead, give a stranger a thumbs up or a compliment (nice shoes, pretty dress, or your hair looks great!”).  Leave a comment and send some love my way… =)

Stampin’ Up! Sprinkled Expressions of Love

I’m back to the Mainland and I am so glad my craft room missed me… or did I miss my craft room? =)  My 17-year old son actually helped me with this card (LoL)… after being away for a few weeks my creative juices weren’t flowing right.  Many people know that the love of paper crafting runs in the family.  He has been doing origami since he was walking at 11 months… well, I’m exaggerating, but he loves playing with paper.  So, the credit for this card goes to him… thank you Avery.
