Inky Images

Team Meeting Project

 

One of the great things about being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is building a great team.  I am very blessed to have a wonderful group of gals on my team of Inky Images.  We meet on a regular basis for sharing, chatting, and, or course, stamping!  We will be getting together this Saturday for our team meeting and the card above is one of the projects we will be making. 

 

The idea for this card actually came from a Leadership swap I received from my demonstrator friend Sandy E.  shown on the right.  I just changed the paper to one of the other designs from the Twitterpated (125406) Designer Series Paper in the Occasions Mini.  The stamp set used on this card is the Apothecary Art (125525-wood, 125527-clear).

Leadership Display Card

Stampin' Up! always has the greatest displays set up at their events to showcase all their new product and there's always a big crowd around them taking photos.  I did manage to squeeze in and take a few photos of everything at the Leadership Conference and will be sharing some of the great ideas.  I thought the above card was great as it used lots of product from the new Occasions Mini. 

 

There was also a clever way to display all the Baker's Twine that Stampin' Up! now carries.  Besides the regular colors in the current Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog, there are now Baker's Twine in the new In Colors!  Just check out the Occasions Mini catalog!  And don't forget to take advantage of My Frequent Shopper Program.

You're My Type

I received this card from my demonstrator friend Amy B.  This was her Stampin' Up! Leadership swap.  Amy used the Just My Type (125564-wood, 125650-clear mount) stamp set from the Occasions Mini.  I don't have this set and wasn't going to get it, but after seeing her swap, I now have it on my wish list!

Check out this Mouthwatering Card

One of the things that demonstrators love to do at any event is swapping.  I came home from the Stampin' Up! Leadership Conference with some really cool swaps.  I don't remember who gave me this particular one and the name was not on the back but I wanted to share it with everyone because it is so cute.  The card uses the Mouthwatering (125675-wood, 125677-clear mount) stamp set from the Occasions Mini. 

If you want to order this stamp set visit My Online Store and be sure to take advantage of My Frequent Shopper Program.

Mixed Bunch Gift Box for Hand Sanitizer

Pin It   

The 6th and final project at my January stamp camps was something my downline made at my December Holiday Meeting.  I changed it up by using the new Twitterpated Designer Series Paper from the Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini to decorate the Real Red Hand Sanitizer Box, and I used my free stamp set, Mixed Bunch.  This is such an easy project and would make a great teacher or secretary gift.  Actually, who wouldn't love getting this little gift?  Everyone can use hand sanitizer and what a cute way to present it.

  

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Cut a 11" x 2-3/4" piece of Real Red (102482) card stock and scored it at   2-1/4",   3-1/4",   6-3/8",  7-3/8",  9-1/2" and 10-1/2". 

2. Fold on the score lines.  With the 3/4" Circle Punch (119873), punch a circle in the middle of the 2nd fold from the end (it is the one that is 1 inch wide).  This is where the neck of the hand cleaner will fit through.

3. Add 2 pieces of  Twitterpated (125406) Designer Series Paper to the front of the box.

4. Stamp two flowers from the Mixed Bunch (125535-wood, 125537-clear) stamp set with Real Red (103133) Classic Ink.  Punch the flowers out with the Blossom Punch (125603) and adhere together with  a Stampin’ Dimensional (104430).  Stamp the circle for the center with Always Artichoke (105219) Classic Ink and adhere it to the flower with a dimensional.  Adhere flower the front of the box. 

5. Add a bow to the top and Velcro fasteners to keep the box closed.

Leadership Conference Excitement

 

Pictured above are left to right:  Nyla Kelly (Texas), me and Jamilla Ivits (Canada)
 
I just returned from San Antonio, Texas, where I attended the annual Stampin' Up! Leadership Conference last week.  It was awesome, to say the least.  The weather was beautiful--several days were around 75 degrees.  For a midwest gal, that is hot during this time of year (I returned to an ice storm with 19 degree temperatures!).  Thank you to all you Texans who were so nice to us during our stay.  What a great city!

 

It is always so exciting to get together with demonstrators from all over the country and Canada, sharing swaps, ideas and just getting to know one another.  And I can't tell you how special Stampin' Up makes us all feel.  The photo above shows all the free items we got at Leadership.  It was overwhelming!  And if you are at the manager or above level, you got even more!  The bag and notebook cover are so cute -- we're hoping they are a sneak peak at new fabric in the 2012-13 Stampin Up! Catalog.

 

One of the things that is always so much fun at any Stampin' Up! event is Prize Patrol.  In our gift bags there is a wrist band with a design on it.  If they randomly choose your design, you get a special gift from the Prize Patrol gang.  I was lucky this trip and my wrist band design was chosen.  My prize was the P.S. I Love You clear stamp set with a bottle of Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details.  If you look in the photo on the right you will see the wrist band with the red starts on it, attached to my lanyard.  Whoo hoo, it's so much fun to win!

 

Pictured above is Shelli Gardner, Co-founder & CEO of Stampin' Up!

Of course, there were great business-building classes that I always love to attend.  They are always informative and helpful.  I can't wait to incorporate some of the ideas in my Stampin' Up! business.  

I can't say enough what a great company Stampin' Up! is and there's a fantastic promotion for anyone who signs up to receive the Starter Kit from January 24th through March 31st.  Would you like to receive over $340 (US) worth of product for only $125 (US)?  Plus you will receive all the business items you need to get started as a demonstrator.  AND, if you sign up during this promotion, you will get to choose a package of designer series paper or My Digital Studio digital downloads for the rest of this year during any month you place an order. 

AND, I will have a special gift for everyone who signs up under me during this promotion period.  To sign up, just visit my website at http://karenhaden.stampinup.net and click on the Join The Fun button and just follow the prompts!
