Here is my second swap from OnStage in Toronto. I took 40 swaps with me to OnStage and was able to swap all of them! The trick for swapping is to get it done early in the day.

Supplies
Stamps: Touches of Textures, One Big Meaning
Colours: Very Vanilla, Basic Black, Crumb Cake
Accessories: Woodgrain Embossing Folder, Basic Pearl Jewels

My upline had an event at her house the weekend before OnStage so that those of us attending OnStage in Toronto could create/finish our swaps! It was very productive for me, I was able to complete 20 cards using the Always Adventure stamp set. It was a lot of Big Shot cutting but so worth it.


Supplies
Stamps: Always an Adventure
Colours: Garden Green, Soft Sky, Marina Mist, Crushed Curry, Soft Suede, Whisper White
Accessories: Outdoor Adventure Framelits, Stampin' Dimensionals

Easter Baskets

April 12, 2017 in ,
I really enjoy making thank you gifts for our all day crop attendees. For the April 1st crop I made these cute baskets. Inside I put some premade Easter basket filler and some Carrot Cake Kisses - yum! They really do taste like carrot cake.

The starburst is the really pretty glitter paper that you can earn during Sale-A-Bration!

Supplies
Stamps: March Paper Pumpkin stamps, Woodgrain background
Colours: Soft Suede, Whisper White

Onstage 2017 in Toronto

April 11, 2017


This past Saturday was Stampin' Up!'s Onstage event! I was able to attend it in Toronto, Ontario. We were treated to learning about the new upcoming 2017-2018 annual catalogue! The above card was one of my swap cards.

Stamps: Always an Adventure
Colours: Soft Sky, Soft Suede, Garden Green, Crushed Curry, Marina Mist, Whisper White
Accessories: Outdoor Adventure framelits, dimensionals


This year Stampin' Up! celebrates 15 years in Canada! Woot! These chocolate cupcakes they had to help celebrate the anniversary were very yummy.


Here I am near the end of the long day of learning & fun!
Do you have trouble with portrait pictures in your scrapbook pages? I do! I find it hard to mix them into my Project Life scrapbooks. But a little planning before printing your pictures can help make it easier. This page uses Design 4 from Variety Pack 1.

These Balloon dies are great for the inside of a card as a pop-up feature but they work well on card fronts as well! The Balloon Pop-Up Thinlits Dies have these cool balloon cut outs. It's best to adhere them using the Fine-tip glue.

The above 2 samples were designed by Lisa Henderson. She used a piece of my fav design found in the Party Animal Designer Series Paper - the Emerald Green with animals wearing party hats! The 3D item has a sucker in it!
You can join us on May 6th in support of Relay for Life - sign up here by visiting Crop Kingston's Facebook page - we'd love to see you there!

Colours: Crumb Cake, Crushed Curry, Emerald Envy, Pacific Point, Tangerine Tango, Whisper White, Kraft
