Jar of Cheer

Hello, my friends!

I have a fun shaker card to share with you today.  I realized that I hadn’t given my “Jar of Cheer” stamp set much attention so far and I definitely needed to change that.  It’s such a stinkin’ cute set and even better than that…it coordinates with the Everyday Jars Framelits.  Score!
First I’ll show you what I made and then I’ll give you all of the supply details in case you’d like to create some of these beauties of your own.
Isn’t that fun!?  I actually used regular sprinkles in the shaker.  I love it!
Here’s your supply list…  to add them to your cart, just click on the product image and you’ll be taken right to my Online Store. 😉
Before I go I need to tell you about the awesome “Year End Closeout” that’s happening now. There are so many awesome deals and you’re going to want to grab your “must haves” before they’re gone.  Just click the image below to see them all now…

Okie doke….wishing you a wonderful day ahead with plenty of time to get your fingers inky.
Stamped Blessings,
Michelle

Merry Mice

Happy Thursday, Peeps!

One of the very first stamp sets I ordered from the current Holiday Catalog was “Merry Mice”.  It is so stinkin’ cute!  The images are beautiful simply stamped as outline images and even more so when they are colored in.  One of the best things about this set though is that it’s on sale for 25% off until November 30th along with some other awesome sets.  You can see them all listed at the end of this post.  First, let me show you a card I created using Merry Mice and some of the images that inspired me from Pinterest too.
Here’s mine….
I especially love this image from the set layered on the “sheet music” DSP from the “This Christmas” Designer Series Paper Pack.
Here are a few cards that use Merry Mice that are some of my faves from my Pinterest board for Christmas…

Aren’t those mice just the cutest??  I love them!  I have some really cute Christmas tags that I’m working on right now using them too.  I can’t wait to show you!

Be sure to get your Merry Mice while they are on sale.  November 30th is the last day of the sale.  Remember, they all coordiate with the “Stitched From the Heart” framelits and those are only available until November 20th.  They have flown off of the shelves and quantities are dwindling.  Better hurry!!
Here are all of images in the stamp set…

While you’re there, be sure to check out all of the other sets on sale too.  Here they are….
Wishing you a wonderful day ahead….
Stamped Blessings

“Wanna Swap?” Wednesday

Hey there, Stampers!

Welcome to the first edition of “Wanna Swap?” Wednesday!

I will be sharing some of my very favorite swaps from Stampin’ Up! Convention and other swaps that I participate in every Wednesday.  What are “swaps”?  Well, swaps are how we stampers share ideas with one another (to put it simply).  Now, at Convention there are swappers who bring anywhere from 25 to 500 cards to swap.  Yep!  Can you imagine 500 swaps????? Whew!  This year I made 100 swaps and I just had the best time meeting new friends as we shared ideas and traded swaps.

So….today you’ll get your first taste of the beauties I got to bring home with me this year and also some of the awesome swaps from an incredible group of stampers in our “Near and Far” swap group.
Are you ready??  Okay…Here ya go….

The BEST part about swapping for me is getting to see styles, colors and even techniques that I have never tried.  How fun is THAT??  I can’t wait to share more of these beauties with you.
Be sure to stop back by next Wednesday for more “Wanna Swap?” Wednesday fun!
