Inspire Create Share: Stampin Up Convention 2014 Card Swap

I am so excited, and a little overwhelmed to have the opportunity to attend Stampin Up’s 2014 convention: Inspire. Create Share!

As part of a new recruit incentive, I was able to attend convention for FREE!! The attendance was waived for new recruits so I only need cover my expenses.

One of the big parts of convention is the swapping. There are many organized swaps, in addition to the ‘general swaps’. Essentially guests of the convention go around networking with other demonstrators, and instead of exchanging business cards, we will exchange GREETING cards! How cool is that?! The purpose is to get ideas for workshops and share your ideas with others. Initially I didn’t plan on making general swap cards as I was on a very limited budget – but the more I thought about it I changed my mind. This is my first convention, and in the chance that I do not have the opportunity again to go back I wanted to make sure I make the most of this experience.

 

Here are my cards that I made for the organized swap:

Here are the two cards that I made for the general swaps – these are both past projects that I made in workshops:

A Perfect Blend: coffee gift card holder & card in one!

This weekend I just recently got my “Perfect Blend” stamp set from Stampin Up. I saw it in the catalog but didn’t think I loved it… until it arrived.  I give a lot of coffee gift cards throughout the year to many people as thank you gifts and I wanted to come up with something that is non-seasonal. Here is what I came up with:

I can’t believe it!! My first video tutorial!! It’s *really* basic, so be gentle with me – but I have an even better understanding of what I will do different next time so each video will get better and better!!

 

For my first video, I chose to do a tutorial on how to make the rainbow card I posted recently (click to find the list of supplies you will need to make this card)

Easter Bunny Treat Box with FREE Tutorial!

Hi Stampers!  I recently attended a team event where my sideline Karine showed us this Bunny box as the make & take.  I had seen Tami White’s version on her youtube channel and loved Karine’s modifications to the design, so I thought I would pass it along to you as well. These bunnies are super adorable and could be used for any occasion, not just Easter!  I have also seen this bunny created in brown (Stampin Up’s Chocolate Chip) which was also super stinkin cute.

 

Here are the projects I made:

Stampin Up Petite Petals in my pocket

A family friend sent me this denim pocket stamp to cheer me up. I thought it would pair perfectly with Stampin Up’s new Petite Petals stamp & punch set. I also used the teeny tiny flower punch and the stamp from the Sale-A-Bration set. The banner and sentiment is from Lawn Fawn.

Here is the card I made with it & sent her to say thank you:

Stampin Up’s Good As Gold Card Kit Avon Lip Balm box

When I saw this project by Sam McDonald of Pootles UK, I just HAD to make it!! I was smitten with the Sale-A-Bration Good As Gold card kit as soon as I saw it, and when I saw Sam’s brilliant little box, I knew I had to make one too!

Here is the project I made using the Good As Gold card kit:

I loved the box so much, that I decided to make another one using Stampin Up card stock and the Sale-A-Bration DSP (designer series paper). I love Avon lip balm – it’s a great price, and there is always so many different designs and flavors available, I thought they would be perfect for this project  Here is my modified project using Sam’s tutorial:

Valentine’s Day: Squirrels In Love

Just a quick post today to show you a card I made for Eric – we have an inside joke about squirrels, and since Stampin Up doesn’t have any squirrel stamps I went to my local scrapbook store & got this set from Kaiser Craft

A special thanks to Cee Cee for the inspiration for this card – I pretty much cased the entire thing, but just changed the paper & colors to fit with the supplies I had on hand.

Hiya Stampers!!

I have made some SUPER awesome projects lately – thankfully! There was a spell there where I wasn’t feeling very inspired  :S
