ONE DAY ONLY--GET UP TO 50% OFF!

This month has been busy with one kid graduating, the other kid on a different schedule the next couple weeks after that to finish the school year, and the graduating kid getting injured on the job. To top it off, my sweetie is having severely limiting back troubles--aaargh!!! So, to meet my sales goals for the month, I am offering an ADDITIONAL 20% OFF ALL MAY 30% OFF SALE ITEMS for today only (excludes Starter Kit).

You'll find ALL the qualifying Sale Items HERE.

Page a Day in May: 13 & 14

Here we are again, another installment of my Page a Day in May Scrapbooking Challenge! Yes, I know I'm falling behind a little bit with my pages again...hopefully I'll be caught up again by the end of the day today. [Click either image to see it full-size.]

Page a Day in May: 11 & 12

Here are some more pages for my Page a Day in May Scrapbooking Challenge. Okay, I really spent way longer on this two-page spread than necessary, but I was playing with some intermediate/advanced techniques. I think they turned out pretty. These pics are from an annual event called Stampin' for a Cure™ held every October in Colorado Springs by Stampin' Up!® demonstrators, to raise money for Susan G. Komen. I thought our new Strength & Hope Digital Kit was perfect for this project. [NOTE: Click either image to see all the details in full-size]

FYI: for every purchase of the Strength & Hope stamp set (in wood mount or clear mount), or the Strength & Hope Digital Kit, Stampin' Up! will donate $2 to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation!

Page a Day in May: 9 & 10

Woo hoooo, it's May 10th and I'm 10 for 10 on my Page a Day in May Scrapbooking Challenge! I'm still using My Digital Studio to make my pages, and I'm still "cheating" by modifying premade pages. But you know what? I'll take it. These pages are from the same Happy Birthday premade album I mentioned yesterday. And I used another cool stamp from the 2011 Leadership Digital Kit...it's the little plus signs you can see in the background of each page. These will be facing pages in an 8x8 album. [Click either image to see it full-size, and don't mind the smudges on the names to protect privacy!]

Seriously, if you'd love to scrapbook (or create your own cards!) but just don't have the time, and/or space to store a bunch of physical product--you NEED to BUY My Digital Studio, or BUY My Digital Studio Express and then customize it with your favorite Digital Downloads, including templates for premade projects...so you can CHEAT like me!

For a really great deal, Become a Demonstrator during May and get the Digital+ Starter Kit at 30% OFF.

Page a Day in May: 6, 7, 8

Just another installation of my Page a Day in May Challenge! I took a few days off, but I've still done a page for each day. I actually have two more pages done but I want to show them as a layout together tomorrow. Once again, I used a Designer Template in My Digital Studio. It's the Happy Birthday album, with a few slight modifications. I love the grid stamp I put in the background of the haircut page...that grid image comes from the Leadership 2011 Digital Kit. There is actually a Brocade Blue Grid Designer Series Paper that comes with My Digital Studio, but I like that I can use the grid as a stamp and set the transparency of the lines to whatever level I like.

Page a Day in May: 5

I know what you're thinking: "Doesn't this girl ever design a page that isn't blue???" Obviously blue is my favorite color. And you also want to know: "Doesn't this girl ever make pages with anything but My Digital Studio???" Really, I'm trying, I promise--but there's something so appealing about using as many embellishments and as much card stock as I want, and never running out! Plus, I am being super lazy again, and using a premade template...with a few minor modifications. This layout is a page from the Happy Birthday 8x8 album that I altered. Stay tuned for more scrapbooking as my Page a Day in May Challenge continues.

(Again, don't worry about the smear in the journaling on the scrapbook page image, that's to protect my daughter's privacy. The real scrapbook page is smear-free!)

Page a Day in May: 2, 3, 4

I'm catching up on my Page a Day in May Challenge...these three pages should bring me up to date.  Don't hate me because I can make awesome pages in minutes--you can too! I'm once again using a premade album template in My Digital Studio. It's the Digital Download for our 2011 Leadership Conference. I did not go to that event, but I LOVE the colors. Again, I'm just taking out anything too flowery and adding other embellishments in their place. I am soooo excited to get some albums done and sent off to be professionally printed during this month's 30% OFF SALE!

Page a Day in May: 1 (Purring Kitty)

I've gotten a late start on my Page a Day in May Challenge, so I'm posting yesterday's page today. The subject matter reflects the cause of my tardiness! This past weekend it was like having a newborn baby again...sans childbirth. My kitty (Sneakers) hurt his leg somehow, and I had to carry him around to eat and potty over the weekend. The vet says it's probably just a bad sprain, and to baby him a couple more days to let him recover. Poor Kitty.

[Click Image to see it full-size]

This page is part of a Designer Template, which comes as a 12-page Summer Home album template in My Digital Studio. I really like the colors in this template, but not the flowery embellishments. So, I just took out the flowers and added some clouds from the Sunset Serenade bundle instead. It's SOOO easy to put together an album like this!

Summer Mini Catalog Debuts

[Click Image to View Catalog]

The NEW 2011 Summer Mini Catalog debuts May 1st, and is active through August 31st! Please allow me to walk you through some of the really COOL products featured in this catalog...

EXCLUSIVE LIMITED EDITION HOSTESS PRODUCTS:
This mini catalogs debuts a completely NEW type of free Hostess product. It is a DIGITAL CONTENT CD called Cheerful Treat, available as a Hostess Level 1 set. The digital content includes a 12-piece stamp set, 12 Designer Series Papers, and 30 embellishments. Just have a Workshop with at least $150 in sales and this Limited Edition content CD is YOURS! You could also choose the Swirls & Curls Verses Hostess stamp set starting at the $150 level, and the Level 2 stamp set Love & Care at the $300 level. Hey, if you have a $400 Workshop you can get BOTH stamp sets for FREE!!! These sets are ONLY going to be available for 3 months, so contact me to book your Workshop TODAY!

TRIPLE LAYER PUNCHES & MORE:
Oh WOW, you have to see these to believe them. You can get THREE DIFFERENT punched pieces from ONE punch! I am normally not at all a flower-lover, but the Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer Punch looks so totally cute with the Bold Blossom stamp set that I had to get them BOTH! And we finally have a Postage Stamp Punch, and even a cute stamp set that coordinates.

MANLY MEN PRODUCTS:
Okay, that's not what they're called, that's just my name for them. But this mini catalog has a FANTASTIC line-up of products that are just perfect to use for projects involving the men in your life! There are several nautical-themed products, and seriously, you can get a (stamp) set of ties for Father's Day!

SEASONAL SETS:
Of course, the Summer Mini Catalog has plenty of fun summer-themed stamp sets, featuring flowers and fishies, fudge-sicles and flip-flops, seashells and surfboards, etc. There's an awesome star-spangled banner flag stamp, and some fun school-themed sets including playground activities, the alphabet, apples, and crayons! Again, I am NOT a flower-lover, but I had to have the Flower Fest stamp set because it's so stinkin' easy to use, with all the punches that coordinate! And I figured I could use it with the 6 different sayings in the Happy Greetings stamp set to make tons and tons of quick and cute cards (at the last minute, as always).

FOR THE BIRDS:
You birdie-lovers are going to get a kick out of the Proud Peacock stamp set, and the cute little birds and birdbath in the Touch of Kindness stamp set, and there's even a cute little singing birdie on word 'hello' in the Swirls & Curls Verses Hostess stamp set!

FABULOUS FLORETS:
No, not broccoli florets. There is a huge suite of products in the Summer Mini Catalog revolving around a specific floral theme. It starts with the images in the Fabulous Florets stamp set and the coordinating Flower Garden Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Then those images are carried over to the Beyond the Garden Designer Series Paper, and the colors of that paper are carried over in three NEW Stampin' Emboss powders in Tangerine Tango, Melon Mambo, and Wild Wasabi. This is way cool for you flower-lovers, but I like broccoli better ;-)

STRENGTH & HOPE BREAST CANCER RESEARCH FUNDRAISER:
Stampin' Up! will donate $2 from every purchase of a Strength & Hope stamp set or a Strength & Hope Digital Kit, to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Aside from the fundraiser appeal, if you love butterflies and pretty things, you will LOVE this stamp set. (And if your name happens to be Hope, this set will provide you with a fantastic monogram stamp for personalized stationery!)

MY DIGITAL STUDIO EXPRESS:
Even though it's not really featured in a hugely obvious way in the mini catalog, the new My Digital Studio Express became available for customer purchase on May 1st. This is a condensed, downloadable version of Stampin' Up!'s digital crafting software. You have to order from me through my Online Store, but it's half the price of the full version. It does not come with tons of content--the idea is that you can customize the content to your personal style with digital downloads. (Watch for a post with details and software comparisons, coming soon!)

THE REST OF THE STORY:
(If you don't get that reference, just Google Paul Harvey.) A few more notables in this awesome mini catalog are the Baker's Twine (in plain white as well as Cherry Cobbler and Early Espresso striped!); a travel-themed stamp set which includes a date/month image and a road map background image; and a Simply Scrappin' Kit in bright summer colors with tons of flowers and polka dots! I can't believe we have all this, PLUS our National Scrapbooking Month 30% OFF Specials in May, and a new Idea Book & Catalog coming out in July!!!
