Hello Everyone! Happy Thursday! It’s been a short week for me at my real job, so I’m excited to find it is Thursday already! We have plans to meet up with my in-laws for dinner on Saturday and I’m very excited for that. My husband and his brother and sister all have birthdays in the span of 4 weeks so each year they get together for a nice lunch. I’m truly blessed to have amazing in laws so I always look forward to the time we spend with them.

Todays’ card is from my Live at 11 Facebook live this week. It’s a super easy fun fold and really shows off the beautiful True Love Designer Series Paper.

Happy Tuesday Friends!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I was off yesterday so it was a long weekend for us. It was nice to spend the day with Logan and just relax. Poor John had to work! We tried not to tease him too much with pictures of ice cream!

Today I am excited to share a quick and easy Slimline card I made on my FB live Sunday night. You can also see the video on my YouTube Channel! I used the new Sale-A-Bration Paper Blooms paper and the new Happy Thoughts stamp set from the Jan – June mini catalog. Remember if you want to purchase any of the products just click the image below and you will be directed to my Stampin Up!® store.

Hey Everyone!

Happy Weekend! I hope you are all having a great one! I’m excited to spend the day with my daughter in law Jacky! She is one of my favorite people and one of the sweetest, kindest people you could ever meet! This is a picture of Jacky and my daughter Caitlyn from this past fall. Two of the most beautiful women I know!

Anyway….see what happens when I start talking about our kids? lol.

Today I am going to share with you a card I made using the Shark Frenzy stamp set! This adorable set is new in the January to June mini catalog! Now if you have small children in your life you are sure to know this song! I paired it up with a few items from the Whale of a Time Suite in the Annual Catalog! As always, just click the links below to be directed to my online store!

I should note, there are dies that coordinate with the stamp set..but I actually do not have them yet. And my fussy cutting needs work! LOL.

Hey Friends!

Happy Thursday! The weekend is almost here! YAY!

Today I want to share with you the New Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine! You all know how much I love the big boss machine! But you guys this one is sooo cute and compact! It’s so nice to have it right on my workspace ready to use within an arm’s reach….without taking up a huge amount of space! It’s going to be fabulous to take when I go to my retreats or crafting with friends! It comes with all of the same plates as the standard size machine (just smaller) and you will see in the catalogs now a little symbol that tells you what embossing folders are made for it!

I posted my recent Facebook live to my YouTube Channel so you can see it up close and how it compares size wise to the larger counterpart.

Cost is $60 and if you order it before February 28th you would be entitled to a stamp set or DSP from the Sale-A-Bration catalog!! Better yet…add it to a Starter kit and get Free Shipping on it!

Happy Tuesday Friends!

My family LOVES ice cream! We have a favorite locally owned shop (Yay for ICKI STICKI!!) that we walk to often. Walking burns off all the calories right? lol. When I saw the Sweet Ice Cream Suite I knew I had to have it all! And Surprise…I won the stamp set at our anuual OnStage event in November!

Check out all of the items in this suite! For $56 you get all of it!! AND…remember it’s Sale-A-Bration so you can also then choose a FREE stamp set or Designer Series Paper pack on top of it!

Today I am sharing the first card I made with the bundle, pairing it up with a sheet from the Fine Art Floral DSP pack. Watch in coming weeks (or likely days!) for more projects!

I love how pretty the DSP is in the January to June Catalog. I know you will as well!

I am soo excited to share this with you guys! You all have heard me talk about how supportive my husband John has been. Whether it’s helping run the Stamp and Emboss machine for swaps, or video taping my lives, or traveling across the country and attending my Stampin Up! ® events with me…he’s been my biggest cheerleader. Today I was finishing up our family Christmas cards and talking about how i wanted to share it on my FB live tonight, but because I was using a retired die (gasp) I didn’t want to. It’s not that there are rules or anything, but I like to share with you products you can actually purchase – or at least that there is something similar available.

He sat down at the table and starting playing around with the scraps and pieces I had lying there. Then started looking at dies and had me cut out a few things…and he came up with this! I’m going to have to get him his own watermark!

The supplies are listed below: Remember the Nativity and Joy dies are retiring on Jan 5th so if you love them as much as I do you will want to order them now! http://www.jena.stampinup.net

Join me tonight at 8:30pm CST for a Facebook live where we will create this card! I have about 9 hours to convince HIM to do the live! Wish me luck!

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

We have made it half way through the week! This week is dragging so badly for me! Before Covid…I was scheduled to be in Salt Lake City this week! Stampin Up! holds an annual convention each year at a different location. Typically there is one large event that lasts 3-4 days and then multiple single days spread out across the country. Historically they alternate every other year the large event is in the US. Two years ago I traveled to Orlando for the large event with a great group of friends. Last year some of those same friends..and my husband traveled with me to Lansing MI for the single day event.

This year it was to be held in SLC, which is where the SU! headquarters are located. Because my other passion is family history…we were flying out a few days early to spend some time at the Family History Library there as well.

Like so many other amazing events this year, Stampin Up moved our convention to the virtual platform. While we are all disappointed, my friends and I decided to make the best of it and 4 of us will be getting together this weekend to enjoy the virtual festivities together! So…I’m looking forward to the weekend! 🙂

But first…today I want to share with you a quick and easy project using a limited edition stamp set! The Curvy Celebrations bundle was released yesterday! It is a super trendy and cute stamp set and dies bundle that will be available in the January to June catalog. For Christmas however…they have also released a second stamp set and set of Designer Series papers! These will only be available November and December so if you love them order them now!

For this project i used the Curvy Dies and the Curvy Christmas stamp set! I love how the gold foil looks after being run through the Stampin Cut and Emboss machine with these dies! I started with a sheet of thick Whisper White cardstock for my base. I mounted the gold foil on whisper white and then on a 5.25 x 4 sheet of Basic Black card stock. I used my Stamparatus to line up the greeting just right. I also used the Stitched Stars dies for the tiny stars by my greeting. Topped it off with a piece of the Trimming the Town ribbon pack and you have a super elegant..but super easy holiday card!
