Home Life

For today's project, I decided to use a set that I think may get skipped right over in the Annual Catalog. Home Life, on page 148. It takes up the entire page, and may seem a bit overwhelming at first, but it's really adorable!


This is a Two-Step set, and is kind of amazing when it all comes together. The stamps are numbered, so you know exactly what order to stamp them in. How great is that! It's also Photopolymer, so you can see exactly where you are stamping. 

It has coordinating Framelits Dies so you can easily cut out the house, banner and flowers. Another great thing about this set ~ you can add dimension by using the coordinating framelit to cut out all those little flowers at once! The new Mini Dimensionals are the perfect size to pop them on.
Here is a close up.


This set is very versatile too. You can welcome newcomers to the neighborhood, congratulate someone on their new home, or congratulate new parents on the arrival of their new little one. I can see this set being a go to set in my studio. How about you?

You Are Remarkable!

This is my favorite card from my class today. I have had my eye on this set ~ Remarkable You ~ for a long time. When I earned some freebies ~ one of the awesome perks of being a Demonstrator ~ I decided to get it. I love the boldness of the large flower images! I'm also loving this color combination ~ Berry Burst, Marina Mist, and Wild Wasabi.


This set would be great for the Water Color Technique, or using Blender Pens and Ink to add a splash of color. Not a fan of coloring? No problem! I used the swishes from the Work of Art set to fill in the flower and stem. No water coloring necessary!

If you like this card, I would love to have you join me for my Quick & Cute class. This class is held the first Monday of each month. The first session is from 11am to 1pm, and the evening session runs from 6pm to 8pm. September is a little different with Labor Day being on the first Monday. Classes will be held on Monday, September 11. You can find out all the details, and register for the September class at www.debbied.stampinup.net.

Hope to see you here in September!

More Traditional Carols of Christmas

For a more traditional look, I chose Cherry Cobbler and Always Artichoke for this card. I love the versatility of this set. By choosing different colors, you can create so many different variations with the two different sayings and accessories that come in this set.

To get the two colors for the saying, I stamped direct to the paper with Always Artichoke, and then again on a scrap of Whisper White with Cherry Cobbler. I used the Classic Label Punch to punch out the word "the" and used the new Mini Dimensionals to pop it up! Have you seen these in the new catalog? You've got to check them out! They are perfect for adding so many of the smaller elements to your projects. No more cutting the regular ones in half!

Notice the decorative edge? That was created using the Card Front Builder Dies. These edges are such a fun way to add interest to any card, and so easy to use! And so versatile! They're not just for Christmas. They can be used for almost any occasion!


This set; Carols of Christmas is available now, as an Early Release, before the Holiday Catalog goes live on September 1, 2017. Get yours now, along with the coordinating Card Front Builder Thinlit Dies, save 10%, and start your Christmas card creating early!

Christmas is just around the corner, and I know I need to get an early start! I hope these projects are an inspiration to get you thinking about your cards this year.

Non-Traditional Carols of Christmas

There are so many things I love about this new bundle; Carols of Christmas. First of all, you can get it now, and start your Christmas card making early. How great is that! And, that little deer ~ so cute! For my first project using this set, I decided to go non-traditional. I must say, I love how it turned out.


I used Soft Suede and Powder Pink. Love this combo! The background is stamped with the new Sheet Music Background stamp, and I had to add a touch of glitz with my Wink of Stella to the tree.

These items are available now during the Early Release. Save 10% when you purchase the Bundle which includes the Carols of Christmas Stamp Set and coordinating Card Front Thinlits. You can see the complete set and thinlits on my website at www.debbied.stampinup.net.

Let's Get a Fresh Start!

A new Stampin' Up! year gives me just the right motivation to get "started" again! I've been super busy, and have totally neglected my blog ~ For almost the entire year! I have been posting on Facebook, but decided I need to get a fresh start, and begin sharing with you here! There's so much going on, I don't want you to miss a thing!

Yesterday was my annual Christmas Card Buffet. I have not one picture to share from the event. There were 13 ladies here getting a head start on their Christmas Card making, and I was busy making the rounds checking to make sure everyone was having a great time. I know I did! Over 200 cards were created during the event.

There were 10 designs, and they could make up to 4 of each card. That's a possibility of going home with 40 cards! Once again, Kim completed all 40. She's amazing!

Here are a couple of the cards they made ~




All the products used to create these cards can be found in the Annual and Holiday Catalogs. Now is a great time to stock up on Designer Series Paper (DSP). Now, through October 31, it's on special. Buy 3 packs, and get the 4th one FREE!

These events are so much fun. You should join me! Check my website for the calendar of all of my upcoming classes and events, and all the details of this great paper sale!

Thanks for checking in today!
