COMING IN JANUARY! CLING STAMPS BY STAMPIN' UP!®

Image
Hello, Stampers!     How many of you (us) have stopped adding the labels to our rubber/clear mount stamps because they don't always stay put like they should on the clear block?  I raise my hand!!👋 I've always preferred to use the label images to help with placement, but it just got frustrating that some wouldn't stick properly, so I pretty much don't use them.  However , SU! listened to our grumblings and starting with Sale-A-Bration (SAB) and the 2019 Occasions Catalog, all NEW stamp sets will be offered in Cling or Photopolymer - wood-mount stamps will be phased out except for Background Stamps.     For more details, click "read more" below.

SHADOWY WINTER WOODS - November 2018

Inspired by LeeAnnGreff - YouTube "3Techniques with the Stamparatus" Hi, Stampers!      Here is another project from my November 10 Stamp Camp.  LeeAnn Greff has a great video on YouTube on how to create this "shadow" effect - or, as I like to call it, three-dimensional.  These subtle trees also work well for a sympathy card.  Just send me an email me for a printable Project Sheet.

Hello, Stampers!      Here's a sneak peek at one of the cards we'll be making at Stamp Camp November 10.  Color inspiration for this card was from Mackenzie Fuchs, a fellow SU! demo. The flowers and leaves in this set are part of Stampin' Up!'s new Distinktive stamps that were introduced this year in the Annual Catalog.  You can watch a short video about how they are made here:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QF5VHPlkScQ    Happy Stampin’!
