Getting Ready for Sale-a-bration

Thanks for stopping by today to check out what we have to show you this week for Fabulous Friday. We have decided to use some of the Sale-a-bration items to make projects other than cards. Remember Sale-a-bration starts in just a few short days. January 28, to be exact. During Sale-a-bration you can select one FREE item from the Sale-a-bration brochure for every $50 in product you order (before shipping and tax). We all know we love FREE. So here's some projects to tease you.
 

First up we have Debbie's awesome acrylic post it note holder. She used two different Sale-a-bration items on her project. Check out Debbie's blog for more information.

 
Next up, we have a bookmark Rachel made using the cute banner kit that you can get during Sale-a-bration. Head over to her blog for more details on what she did.
 
Thanks for stopping by,
Debbie, Karla & Rachel

Fabulous Candy Favors

  Happy Friday and thank you for stopping by to check out our Fabulous Friday projects this week!  Since Valentine's Day is just a few short weeks away, I thought it would be fun to share some candy favor ideas.  There are so many great ways to package candy with Stampin' Up! card stock, designer papers and tools like the Simply Scored scoring tool, Big Shot and punches.  So let's get to our projects....

  Up first is this cute candy pocket created by Karla.  She used the fun stamp set Crazy, Mixed-Up Love along with the new Fresh Prints designer series paper stack from the Occasions catalog.  Be sure to check out Karla's blog here to get all the details about her cute project.


  And here we have Rachel's cute candy favor.  It's such a pretty and elegant little gift you may not even want to open it. However, if you do, you'll be pleasantly surprised. You will find all the details, including what treat is inside, for this project on Rachel's blog here.


  Last up is my project... I designed a pocket to hold some Pixy Sticks.  My project features the Quatrefancy specialty designer series paper pack and the Itty Bitty Banners stamp set.  Please visit my blog here to view the candy favor opened up and to get more information about my project.

  Thanks so much for visiting us today - we hope you've found some inspiration and ideas to try with your stamping stash.  Have a fabulous weekend!!

Are you Ready for New?

Yes, it's the New Year but you do know that it's also time for a new Occasions Catalog, right?  The Holiday catalog expired last night and this morning we get to select products from the awesome new Occasions catalog. It's jammed packed with great stamps, accessories and of course big shot items that you will want to have ready to use to create wonderful handstamped projects.

So with all that said, of course, this week our focus is on the new things from the Occasions Catalog. Because it is so full of greatness, we won't be showing you everything today, but don't worry over the course of the next few months, you will see much of what is inside.

 
First up we have Debbie's beautiful tulip card. She used a few new things on her card, so head over to her blog to see exactly what she used and how she made this card.
 
 
Next is Karla's card for this week, her favorite stamp set is called So Very Grateful. You can see it up close here. 
 
 
 
Lastly, we have Rachel's card which also uses several new things from the Occasions Catalog. All the details for her card can be found on her blog, so go check it out.
 
Thanks for stopping by.
 
See you next week.

Fabulous quick and easy last-minute gift ideas

  Happy Friday the 13th!  Can you believe that Christmas is less than two weeks away?  Do you still have a long list of gifts to buy?  Worried that a surprise guest or two may show up unexpectedly with a gift?  We're sharing some quick and easy gift ideas with you this week that you can create with things you probably already have in your stamp room!  Why not make a few to have on hand just in case... 


  First up is Rachel with this fabulous wrapped candy bar.  Be sure and hop over to her blog here to get more information for recreating it.



  And next we have this great gift box from Karla.  She has all the details about it and a picture of what's inside with a recipe on her blog here.



  And last but not least is my contribution this week - a gusseted cello bag (find them on the Clearance Rack!) filled with chocolate-covered pretzels and a hand-stamped tag.  Find out how quickly I put this little gift idea together on my blog here.

  Thanks so much for stopping by today!  We do hope we've given you some inspiration and that you get a chance to get in a little stamp therapy this weekend.  Put on some Christmas music, stamp a few cards, make a few gifts and chase away some of the holiday craziness.

Christmas Cards with a Big Shot Touch

Hello and welcome to another Fabulous Friday posting here with the sisters.  We are definitely in Christmas mode here as most of you are as well and decided to share some great Christmas card ideas with you that use the big shot. Often times, you may look at your card and say it's missing something. Well, most of the time if you add some big shot touch to your card it's exactly what was missing and finishes it off nicely. So, that's just what we have for you today.
 
 
First up we have Debbie's Christmas and New Year card featuring the awesome snowflake embossing folder. Be sure to go over to Debbie's blog for more details.


 
And then we have Rachel's Christmas card featuring the Dove from Calm Christmas. She used two different embossing folders on her card. Head over to Rachel's blog for more information.
 
 
 
Here is Karla's card for this week, she used 2 BigShot products to make her Elf Shoes. Find out which ones on her blog here.
 
 
Thanks for stopping by. We hope you take time to enjoy the holiday.
