My birthday is around the corner, and my sweet customer Janell gave me a rose at class. :) It's been a good week!
Thank you, Janell!
Lookie what my friend Bernadette from Jersey (how you doin'?) sent me in the mail this week...
Bernadette and I met on the Bermuda cruise that we both earned through Stampin' Up. I am so excited that we get to see each other next Spring on the Alaskan cruise. :)
Bernadette happened to be with me when I found out that I made Top 100 demonstrators and received my Founder's Circle bag. She created this adorable frame and sent me the picture she snapped at the awards booth at convention. It's now hanging in my stamp room!
I love the card, too! She used new colors... LOVE
Beautiful Wings Embosslit... LOVE
Elegant Lines Embossing Folder... LOVE
on the inside she stamped "If at first you do succeed, try not to look too surprised"... LOVE!!!!
Thank you, Bernadette!
Remember the room re-do for my son Trey? We painted his walls, purchased new bedding and completely hauled the little boy "stuff" out of his room. I then added wall art from Stampin' Up's Decor Elements line.
Trey also has a bedroom suite with desk/hutch that is fairly new. So I wanted to protect the desk from water marks and such. I created Trey a matching set of coasters in his favorite colors: blue and orange.
I used one of my favorite new stamp sets Word Play and Extreme Elements and coordinating extreme sports single stamps.
Extreme Surfboard
Extreme Snowboard
Extreme Skateboard
Extreme Bike
Then I found this wire bin (maybe it used to hold notes or something) and it fit the coasters perfectly. I am thrilled with the way they turned out, and so was Olivia. She has already put it in an order for when her room is done. :)
I held my first Christmas Card Stamp a Stack of the season. :) We made 10 cards (2 each of 5 designs) with matching envelopes. I'll do this three more times - one per month. My next session will be Friday, September 24th. Come stamp with me!

Time
to get serious about building my downline!
I made a pledge at
convention that I would recruit 4 new downline by the time I went to
Founder's Circle (September 15th). To date, I have recruited one...
welcome, Nichole! :) So I am looking for a few more good women OR MEN
to join my team.
I am holding a Business Opportunity Event on Thursday,
September 2nd. There will be two sessions to choose from: one from 12:00-1:00 PM
or 6:30-7:30 PM.
Please join me if you have ever thought about joining
Stampin' Up or are just curious to find out more about the fun I am
having, friends I am making, and money I am earning. You'll listen to
me talk for awhile and then we will STAMP.
No charge to attend... I just ask that you RSVP by August 29th so I can prepare supplies for you. Please contact me at shellyluvsstamps@earthlink.net or (913)441-6509.
Hope to see you there! :)
Here's one of my favorite swaps from Convention. I did an "organized" swap for 12x12 double-page layouts. It's a great way to get ideas and samples for scrapbooking... and finish your scrapbooks! :)
I am hosting a swap with my downline on September 4th. So I need to figure out what I want to do! Also, can't wait to see what I get. :) Swaps are too much FUN!!!
Have a great weekend - shelly
I just realized that I didn't show you the rest of the FABULOUS swaps from my Demo Diva Days downline meeting. So here is the parade of awesomeness:
Genger's Swap
Debbie's swap (those flowers are made from the plain brown packaging from Stampin' Up boxes... OMG... they are gorgeous!)
Shermala's swap
Hannah's birthday bag and Mary Jo's Christmas card. I put these two together because they use the same color scheme and Designer Series Papers but have completely different looks! Great job, ladies! Sometimes all I can say is... WOW!!!
If you'd like to join my downline group, please shoot me an email at shellyluvsstamps@earthlink.net. I'd love to chat with you about the benefits of becoming a demonstrator! :)
I visited my BFF and downline last weekend, and she had just put up her new vinyl wall art. Our home decor line is so easy to use and looks so professional!
She wants to finish the look with a collage of different sizes and styles of crosses. I can't wait to see the final touches! This is in her entryway and will be stunning.
Speaking of stunning... LOL... just kidding! I thought you might like to see how big the lettering is. So I took my picture next to it, so you could get an idea. :)
Hi there! :)
Like all of our other products, you can shop online for wall art. Look under Definitely Decorative, and you'll find vinyl wall art, vinyl sheets, and stencils. Measurements are online as well.
