Sweet Shop Designs with Stickers


The new Occasions Mini Catalogue has tons of new products including Designer Stickers which are awesome and easy to use.  They match perfectly with the Sweet Shop Designer Paper as well as the brads and matching stamp sets.  This is one of the major reasons I love SU products, everything matches.  The Stickers are great and can be used for quick cards or scrapbook pages.  I can't wait to share these!  I actually have a package with some paper as one of my door prize/raffle bundles to hand out at my Sale-a-bration Kick Off Party on Sunday, January 22nd at 1:30, contact me today to sign up or you can RSVP through my SU site as http://www.heatherfosbery.stampinup.net/

For the cards below, I used a basic layout for the cards below, always like to layer my cards, add a bit of designer paper or flair.  I sponged the edges with the coordinating colours.  Punched my greeting from the new Sweet Cake Stamp Set with the Modern Label Punch (again a must have!)  I also added another favourite, ribbon, I used the new Pool Party Seam Binding Ribbon.

Happy Stamping!  Heather

Mixed Bunch & Sale-a-bration

So excited to share a bit of the Sale-a-bration products with you.  Don't forget to sign up for my Sale-a-bration Kick Off Party taking place on Sunday, January 22nd at 1:30.  Make & Takes, Door Prizes (lots!) Refreshements, sales plus huge bonus of 2 for 1 sale with my retired merchandise.  For every dollar spent on old product you get a credit for new product (or vice versa) plus with every $60 you spend, you get a free Sale-a-bration item, technically it is like 3 for 1!!  Only $5 to attend.  Contact me today or RSVP through my website under events at http://www.heatherfosbery.stampinup.net/

Here is an altered version of one of the cards we will do next weekend.  The flower is from Mixed Bunch and punched using the new Blossm Punch.  There are actually two flowers punched out.  The first was adhered to the card base, the second one I took a bone folder to curl the edges of the flower.  An Everyday Enchantment Brad was placed in the middle before popping up on the first flower.

I also used the Everyday Enchantment Designer Paper (so fabulous and love this paper!) and the ribbon.  The two strips of Lucky Limeade down the side of the DS Paper is the new SAB Organdy Ribbon, you get a roll of Lucky Limeade & Calyspo Coral plus 30 awesome brads available as a SAB item.

Looking forward to seeing you next Sunday.

Happy Stamping!  Heather

Mouthwatering Cards

Welcome Stampers! I am just getting this blog going so please be patient as I am new at this, I do have a blog portion under my Stampin' Up! website at www.heatherfosbery.stampinup.net but both will be the same shortly. Appreciate your patience as I set things up but wanted to start posting ideas to share with all of you.


The New Occasions Mini is here! I have included a couple of cards below using some fun, brand new products.

Don't forget to sign up for my Sale-a-bration Kick Off Celebration Open House on Sunday, January 22nd at Brown's Independent Grocer in Stittsville. It is only $5 to attend, make & takes, refreshments, lots of door prizes PLUS an amazing sale from myself and of course Stampin' Up's biggest sale of the year, Sale-a-bration. For every dollar you spend on old merchandise (my retired products stock pile!) you will get a credit to spend on new merchandise! So 2 for 1 Sale! Plus for every $60 you spend you get a Sale-a-bration item so technically it is a like a 3 for 1 sale! Email me today or give me a call. You can also RSVP through my Stampin' Up! website at www.heatherfosbery.stampinup.net

Now back to the cards! I used the new stamp set called Mouthwatering, it goes very well with our new scented embossing powders (yeah, no more mixing sugar less Kool Aid to get a smell!) This is so much easier and comes in three different scents, Vanilla, Melon & Cherry. I coloured the Ice Cream Cone using the SW Markers and stamped extra tops to cut out with my paper snips & then popped them up for added dimension.

The designer paper is the new Sweet Shop Speciality Designer Series Paper, this is awesome and yummy paper. Two of the sheets are embossed too! It goes perfectly with this stamp set, our new stickers (pictures to come) and Sweet Cake but also goes great with some older stamp sets as well. I used the new Wisteria Wonder Baker's Twine to separate the two Designer Papers and adhered a bow, if you notice, there is actually two pieces of twine in each section. Greeting was punched using the Modern Label Punch which is a favourite of mine & see it as a must have item.

I displayed an optional version below as well. Ice Cream Anyone?

Enjoy& Happy Stamping!
Heather
