I’m going to have regular technique classes here at my home! Woo hoo. When you come, you’ll get to learn a new technique and go home with a cute, shall I say adorable card –plus if you shop, you’ll get a class member discount.
Stamper’s Survival Kit to classes. A Stamper’s Survival Kit should contain the following:
Sharp Scissors
Embossing Tool or Stylus
Small Cutting Mat
Metal Ruler
X-acto Knife & Fresh Blades
Glue of Choice
Bone Folder
Blending Pen
Water Brush
12″ Portable Paper Trimmer
Double-Sided Tape
Non-Stick Mat
If you don’t have all of these survival kit items, don’t fret, use the class member discount to purchase what you’re missing.
The first class we’ll be using water color paper, flowers, emboss resist technique, and marker blending technique.
Happy Stamping,
Betsy
If you haven’t received your new mini catalog, please send me a quick note and I will send one to you. It has tons of cute things that I love, like the Twitterpated Suite. There’s a really cute stamp set that has flowers and fun edges that coordinate with impressions embossing folders and these new edgelit dies that you can use with your Big Shot. Here’s a training video that I found to be really helpful. (I’ve thought about doing my own videos, but no one can beat Stampin’ Up’s training… enough said.
Have a great weekend!

What?!?
No?
Well, shop now.

Happy Stamping!

Halloween is almost here, and the kids are pumped up! I wonder how much longer they will trick or treat?
This card uses a embossing folder called Designer Frames (123130) the Big Shot (113439) and some punches (118870) Scallop Trim Corner, (119849) Modern Label, and the Decorative Label (120907) which was cut in half.
I love how the oval was stamped with the Jack of All Trades (122620) to make it look like a pumpkin adorned with ribbon, of course.
Too.
Darn.
Cute.
Happy Stamping!
Betsy
I love using the Decorative Label punch (120907) and the Gift Givers (123772) stamp set from the Holiday Mini catalog. How cool is that web?!!
Happy Halloween!

Happy Stamping!

There are just some stamp sets that are meant to be embossed. This set, House of Haunts (111574) is one of them. This card also highlights one of my favorite neutrals, basic grey. The neutrals collection (119707) makes neutral look not so neutral. Oval Punch (119855) and 1/8″ Taffeta Ribbon (119261).
Get out that embossing gun, it’s so much fun to use, (100005 -Heat Tool).
Happy Stamping!

Let me see if I get everything… first use the big shot –I mean seriously. If you don’t have one you can get one for free. Yup, free. Just check out the latest promotion offered by Stampin’ Up. The Boo, Scallop square, and the Spider Web was created on the Big Shot to create this Halloween card.
Grateful Greetings stamp set (116511) was used too. This set is worth mentioning because it has Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Valentine greetings in it. Just think of all the cards you can make!!!
Wow. Scary.
Seriously.
Happy Stamping!
Betsy
I love creating a Scallop circle that holds the card shut –what a cute idea. And the Frightful Sight Designer Series paper (122351) is embossed with the Houndstooth textured impressions embossing folder (123134) and topped off with a stamped image from the Spooky Bingo Bits (123944) stamp set. Another keeper!!!
Happy Stamping,
Betsy
