Kinda Eclectic

Today I have several more Make & Takes from Convention!  There are two versions:  the first one is a cute card just as is and the second one is a stepped up version.  Linen thread, a vellum butterfly and the honeycomb effect have been added. You don’t need a Big Shot to create the honeycomb effect.  I inked up the embossing folder with my stamp pad, slipped the paper inside and just tapped on it all over.  Did you notice that the envelope behind the second one has some stamping on it too?

Which one do you prefer?  Personally, I like the first one but I would add some rhinestones to the butterfly and in the center of each flower.  I have to admit that this stamp set was not on my wish list.  It was given to Convention goers and I really like it!  The leaves are just beautiful and I definitely see more cards with this set in my future!

Kraft Grid Journals

One of our new products in the Annual Catalog are the Kraft Grid Journals.  I saw them used in different ways at Convention!  This was a Make and Take that all Convention goers were able to make.  It could be used for just about anything:  in your purse for quick notes, shopping list, journal . . . ..

I attended a class one evening at Convention called Stamps, Paper, Ink.  I learned many different techniques using, yes, you guessed it, stamps, paper and ink!  We made this little book to jot our ideas down!

Prize Patrol at Convention

A very fun part of Convention is Prize Patrol! Each person is given an armband to wear with a Stampin’ Up! color written on it.  My color this year was Rose Red.   I was so excited (and shocked) that they called my color!  Look at the prize I won (it’s a sneak peek of the Holiday Catalog)!!!
