Scalloped Flower Card

One of the many projects I had to get done before convention was my card swap for my monthly downline meeting.  It was the perfect opportunity to play with the new In Colors and DSP that I ordered.

See how pretty they are?  The base of the card is the new Blackberry Bliss card stock.  I ran it through the Big Shot to cut it out using the scalloped square framelit die. 

The Old Olive layer is the actual "card" that opens.  I started with a piece of Old Olive card stock that measures 3 3/4" x 7 1/2" and I scored it at 3 3/4".  I decorated the front of the card with the new Park Lane DSP and the new Blackberry Bliss Satin Ribbon.  The flower was made using the new Flower Frame Framelits and the small flower punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes punch pack.  All of the flower layers were popped up on dimensionals to give it some depth.

I intentionally left the space on the yellow DSP blank so that I can stamp whatever sentiment I'd like when I'm ready to mail this card to someone.  This was such a fun layout to work with, so don't be surprised if you see it again on my blog.  Thanks for stopping by!

Stampin' Up! Convention 2014

I had the most amazing time at convention.  I came away uplifted, inspired, and motivated to build my stamping business.  I stamped my heart out before I left for convention, so I have several projects lined up to share with you.  Before I share them, I'd like to first share some convention photos of my downline and stamping friends who were recognized at convention.

Every year demonstrators are recognized for their achievements--sales, recruiting, earning incentive trips, anniversaries, etc.  Those who reach these achievements are invited to walk across the stage to be recognized.

This year a few of the ladies in our convention group were able to walk across the stage.

Janet (my sideline) and Sue both walked for their five year anniversary.

I was in the back of the room (filled with nearly 4,000 demonstrators) watching what was happening on stage on the projection screens.  I tried to get a photo of both of them while they were actually ON the stage, but they never showed up on the projection screens.

So we went up to the stage after the room emptied and got a few photos.

Elaine (my downline) and Katie both walked for their ten year anniversary.

Unfortunately they didn't show up on the projection screens until they were on the way down the stairs. 

So we took a couple of photos of them near the stage too.  I'm so proud of all of them.  In two years, I will be able to walk for my 15 year anniversary.  My upline (Blythe) will also walk in two years for her 20 year anniversary.  I can't wait.  I love being apart of this amazing company.

Be sure to stop back by because I have lots to share with you.  Thanks for stopping by!
