With the start of a new catalog it is fun to see, touch, and feel all the new products. But buying everything is way to costly. So a solution is to participate in a product share. I’m hosting three product shares for the new 2018-2019 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. You can sign up for my Ribbon Sampler, the Embellishment Share, or the Paper Share. The details for each one is below. Sign up for one, two or all three. You can now register and pay directly through my blog – REGISTER HERE.
You must register and prepay to be a part of the share. I plan to place the orders on July 1st at the latest. If the Ribbon and Embellishments fill sooner I will place those orders in June. After the products have shipped and I have received them I will divide them up for everyone in the share group and notify you when they are ready.

It’s Graduation weekend at Purdue University. And my youngest son, Ryan, will be graduating with his Bachelor’s degree on Friday night. We are traveling to Indiana to be there. The last one is done with college. It seems like yesterday he was just starting school. He has big plans for the summer – working for Facebook – and then back to school for one more year to finish a Master’s degree. Saturday there will be a little graduation party for Ryan and his girlfriend Emily at her parents house. I offered to make some table decorations. We are driving up so I thought I could carry these with us in the car. I’m hoping they travel well.
I have the wine boxes from Sam’s to take them in – you know the ones with the sections so the bottles to clang together. I’ve been saving and collecting all different kinds of wine bottles the last couple of months. I had friends save some for me too. Then I washed and removed all the labels and foil. I bought gold spray paint to paint them – I spent last week doing all that. I was hoping to use the Stampin’ Up! number framelits dies but they were a bit too small for this project. Instead I printed out large numbers on some paper and then cut them out. Next I traced them on the back of some Gold Glimmer Paper and then cut them out by hand. I did two sets – and I picked a really basic font so they weren’t bad to hand cut.
I tried just some long wooden skewers but they were too short so I found some balloon sticks at that were longer. They were white so I also spray painted those gold. I used the mini glue dots to attach my glitter numbers to the top of each stick. To finish each number I used a combination of sequins and ribbon to tie to the base of each number. I had to go to my retired stash because I didn’t have enough ribbon to do all 8 bottles.
I hope the kids and the party guests like these decorations. These would also work for New Year’s celebration or an anniversary celebration. Just adjust the numbers as needed for your event.
Supply List
Gold Glimmer Paper (retiring)
Gold Mini Sequin Trim
Black Mini Sequin Trim
Basic Black Shimmer Ribbon
Mini Glue Dots
I also used some gold cord and some gold ribbon that were previously retired. We do have a gold cord coming in the new catalog that starts in June. And a new Gold Glimmer paper coming too – they made some changes to it so the current ones are retiring.
I can’t wait to see my boy graduate! He was awarded the Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Assistant award a couple of weeks ago. And he was on the Dean’s list again. I’m a proud mama for sure.
I have a super quick Holiday Treat idea for you today. And this one would be easy to adapt for other occasions too – and other colors. I used Lindor Truffles – I used the red ones and the gold colored ones for this treat.
I put two truffles in a cello bag – its’ the 3″ x 6″ sized in the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog.
I tied it shut with a piece of Real Red 1/8″ Solid Ribbon from the Holiday Catalog. Tie a knot first. Then add a wood star from the Hearts & Stars Elements in the Annual Catalog. There are three sizes of stars and hearts that are open. The one I used here is the largest star. And there are 6 of each one in the package along with solid ones. – 72 total pieces. I also added a piece of the Gold Mini Sequin Trim – also in the Annual Catalog. Then finish your bow.
That’s it. If you wanted you could add a stamped tag – but I didn’t. These were the little gifts at my last stamp a stack class.
If you need to order supplies you can do that right HERE.
This was a quick and easy project that I made for the girls on my SU Demo Getaway weekend. I was shopping in the Target Dollar Spot one day (well maybe they don’t call it that anymore) and saw some fun pencils that looked like our SU colors – they were Emerald Envy, Blushing Bride and Basic Black. I picked up a bunch of them to use as a little “pillow” gift for the getaway weekend. Here is what I did with them.
I put three pencils in one of the 6×8 cello bags and stapled it shut. The pencils are about as tall as the bags so I pushed them to one side at the top and stapled as close as I could get so that it would hold them in there.
Then I wanted to decorate the bag with a fun tag. I decided the Pick a Pattern Designer Paper was a perfect fit and grabbed one of the Emerald Envy patterns and one of the Basic Black patterns – I cut those into strips and punched with the Triple Banner Punch. I also cut a strip of Blushing Bride card stock and punch the end of it. I stamped on the card stock with the Pieces & Patterns stamp set. I also grabbed little bits of ribbon in the coordinating colors – Emerald Envy Crinkled Seam Binding, Blushing Bride Double-Stitched Ribbon and some Black Mini Sequin Trim. I stapled all those together at the top of my bag.
To finish the tag I stamped a bunch of the bears on Watercolor Paper and water-colored them in with some Sahara Sand ink. Then I fussy cut the bear and attached him with a mini Stampin’ Dimensional.
Aspen was helping with the bears!
Not really he was just sleeping next to me and I wondered how many bears I could lay on him before he noticed. The answer is 6 – just 6. Then he looked up at me like what is going on here.
I love fun pencils and have lots of different ones. I pretty much write everything in pencil – because then I can erase mistakes or when things change. My calendar would be a mess if I didn’t write things in pencil. Do you use a pencil or mostly write with a pen?
At my Catalog Kickoff event I had a display of all the brand new Stampin’ Up! Ribbons, Trims and Twine. I actually bought a roll of every one. And then I thought I should do a video to show them to everyone that couldn’t come to the kickoff or that doesn’t live local to me. They are so much better in real life than they are in the photos in the catalog. And while the video isn’t exactly real life – you can’t touch them – you can see them a little bit better than just looking at the little photo in the catalog.
I took a couple of photos after arranging them in rainbow order – I had all the like styles together while I shared them in the video.
And here is the video. If you are reading this in an email you may need to click through to my blog or YouTube to see the video. And while you are there be sure to sign up for my YouTube channel so you know when I post a new one.
I hope you like seeing all the new ribbon. Which one is your favorite?

These are just a few of the lovely new ribbons in the upcoming catalog!
2017-2018 Ribbon Share Sampler $35 each There are 56 new ribbons in the 2017-2018 catalog – many styles and colors. For this Ribbon Share Sampler you will get 1 yard of each new ribbon except Baker’s Twine you will get 2 yards.
Pick up at my house – to have it shipped to you will add $7.20 – shipped flat rate priority in a padded envelope.
Prepaid by May 31st. I’ll be ordering on June 1 – then once I receive the order I’ll divide the ribbon and let you know when it is ready for pick up. It may take some time to cut and package all the ribbon but my goal is to be done by mid June.
If the first group fills I’ll start a second group and order once it fills. These are groups of 10. I currently only have enough of the Copper Trim for the first 10 people. The rest will be backordered and potentially not be available until July. It’s been very popular among the demonstrators during our pre-order period!
