My Sale-A-Bration Helper

Sue — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 07:00:46 +0000

I'm very busy today entering in all the orders from my Clubs and workshops that I had earlier in the month. My "system" is when I have an order entered in the computer, I tear off the yellow copy and throw in on the floor near my computer, which ends up in the garbage. I keep the white copy for my files.

My 4 1/2 year old grandgirl, Amber, asked me this morning if she could have the papers on the floor. No surpise, because she's my little dumpster diver–always digging in my garbage in my studio looking for treasures. As I got up from the computer to start lunch, this is what I saw.

She found a pencil and a calculator and she's quietly tracing the words and numbers on these orders. Too, too cute! Here she is when I told her that she looked like a hard-working girl, who needs a lunch break! So keep sending me your orders. I'll be able to keep up with Amber's help!

Sale-A-Bration Humor

Sue — Thu, 31 Mar 2011 09:05:47 +0000

Last year during Sale-A-Bration, Stampin' Up! started putting humorous quotes on the outside of their delivery boxes. This year, they added a few more. This is the quote that has been coming on my orders.

Whenever orders are delivered to my house and the two oldest grandgirls are here, they squeal with delight. They LOVE the brown packing paper. They used to like to draw on it; a nice quiet activity. Now they like to wrap themselves in it, walk on it and run through the house dragging it behind them. Yesterday's order came and Amber, the 3 1/2 year old, wanted to hide inside the box and pop out. It was crowded inside the box and she was having fun inside and outside the box!

Just Believe & Bliss

Sue — Tue, 29 Mar 2011 09:00:25 +0000

Here is Julianne's card she designed for the shoebox swap at my last downline meeting. The butterfly is from the 123255 Bliss Sale-A-Bration stamp set. The flowers are from the 116948 Just Believe stamp set. The words are from 115370 Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set. This is such a peaceful and beautiful card!

A reminder that the Bliss stamp set is only available until March 31 by purchasing $50 (before s/h & tax) from the Stampin' Up! catalogs.

So Happy For You Card

Sue — Sat, 26 Mar 2011 09:00:15 +0000

At last Saturday's Mommy/Grandma and Me workshop, everyone also got to make a card. I wanted this card to be kid-friendly and easy for the adults to make too.

The 121853 So Happy For You Sale-a-Bration stamp set was perfect for this card. The cardstock used was Marina Mist, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla. Also used was the 117335 Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder, 119257 Marina Mist 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon, 117877 1 3/8" Square XL Punch and 119865 1 1/4" Square Large Punch. Super simple for the children and adults to make!

If you want to get this stamp set free before March 31, all you need to do is give me a $50 order (before s/h & tax).

Butterfly Prints & So Happy For You

Sue — Wed, 23 Mar 2011 09:00:13 +0000

Do you think this spring-y card will keep away the possible snow? I sure hope so. It would be cruel to get snow after seeing so much grass in my yard this week.

This card features the 121049 Butterfly Prints stamp set and the Sale-a-Bration stamp set 121853 So Happy For You. The 119848 Butterfly XL Punch fits the Butterfly Prints stamp set perfectly! This makes creating so fast and easy. The 117165 Nursery Suite Specialty Designer Series paper and 114319 5/8" Whisper White Organza Ribbon finish off this bright and cheery card!

Monogram Notecards

Sue — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 09:00:46 +0000

I bought some monogram notecards from another demonstrator who was making them for a fundraiser. Here's my confession. I have never used monogrammed notecards before. Why? I'm really not sure.

Any of you who follow my blog know I love black & white or black & vanilla. Maxine used the Sale-a-Bration stamp set 121851 Bliss and 118724 Broadsheet Alphabet stamp set. She used the 119882 Scallop Edge Border punch and the 115615 Basic Black 1 1/4" Striped Grosgrain Ribbon. Such classic elegance! A reminder that the Bliss stamp set is only available until March 31, 2011.

Sweet Summer

Sue — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 10:00:42 +0000

Here is another make & take project that was made at last Saturday's Open House. I want to thank my downline, Denise, for the layout. This card featured the 121849 Sweet Summer Sale-A-Bration stamp set and the 115370 Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set.

We added the 118481 Victoria 5/8" Crochet Trim and the 121879 Vintage Flower Adornments to finish off the card. You can get the Sweet Summer stamp set free with a $50 order (before s/h & tax) by March 30, 2011.

Curly Cute

Sue — Sun, 27 Feb 2011 10:00:06 +0000

Yesterday was my Open House for the Occasions and Sale-A-Bration Mini Catalogs. Even with the snow, everyone showed up! A very enjoyable day too. Today's post is one of the projects that everyone made.

Super simple and quick card which features the 117014 Curly Cute stamp set. This is my newest word stamp set and I love using it. This card also features one of the free Sale-A-Bration items: 123529 Ice Cream Parlor Ribbon & Button Pack. You can get this free with a $50 order (before s/h & tax) from now until March 31, 2011.

Punch Bunch

Sue — Wed, 23 Feb 2011 12:20:13 +0000

This is one gorgeous card, if I must say so myself! My favorite color combination using the In-Colors are Pear Pizzazz and Concord Crush. So it isn't any surprise that I love this card! This was a card from the Minneapolis Regional. Isn't this a great way to use the 121847 Punch Bunch Sale-A-Bration stamp set? This card uses two of the images from that set. You can get this stamp set for free between now and March 31, 2011 for FREE with a $50 order (before s/h & tax). Contact me if you want to place an order or you can shop 24/7 by clicking "shop" above.
