PAWS = Plays A lot With Stamps
Details for our team meetings are posted on our Facebook Group – PAWS Team Meetings
If you would like more information about joining my team please contact me. I’d love to have you join us for a fun and informative meeting – we cover business topics and stamp creative projects. It is a fun time of sharing with local and long distance demonstrators. We are now holding hybrid meetings so I have a few people in the studio and the rest on Zoom.
Feb 12, 2019 | 2019 Occasions Catalog, 2019 Sale-a-Bration, Cards, Demonstrator, PAWS Team, Stampin' Up! Starter Kit |
Know that today a friend is thinking of you. Isn’t that such a nice thing to say? You could use it for so many different things. It happens to be one of the stamps in the Part of My Story Sale-A-Bration stamp set. And I’ve used it here on this card.
I made these cards as a swap for my January team meeting. It’s full of some beautiful products that I love but a pretty simple looking card. I’ve actually used three different Sale-A-Bration products on here – the Part of My Story stamp set for the greeting, the Organdy Ribbon, and the wood butterfly elements. The Organdy Ribbon has turned out to be the most popular Sale-A-Bration item I think in all of Stampin’ Up! History and quickly sold right through the full supply plus two back up orders! I’m still hoping that we might be able to get some more near the end of the Sale-A-Bration promotion so I’ll be keeping my eye open and post on my Facebook page if that happens. If it does it will sell out quickly again.
One of the Occasions catalog product that I used was the cute Gingham Designer Paper which comes in five different colors. And they match all those ribbons in that Organdy Ribbon pack. You can could switch up the colors for this card and make a rainbow of them. Another favorite new item I used was the Stitched Rectangle framelits. I actually cut out a bunch of rectangles for a different card but the neat thing about these dies is they also add stitching on the outside part that creates the frame. Nobody wants to waste cute frames so they became part of this card.

Nov 8, 2018 | Birthday, OnStage Event, Punch Art, Stampin' Up! Events |
One of the best parts of a Stampin’ Up! Event is staying in the hotel and having fun with your roommates. I remember my very first Stampin’ Up! event – I was brand new and didn’t know anyone. The only person I had met before was my upline and she was staying with someone already. So I had to make a new friend and found someone that needed a roommate for convention that year.
My family thought I was crazy going out of state and meeting a stranger in a hotel and staying there! I figured if I needed to I’d just go find myself my own room somewhere else. But guess what I walked in that door and met Michele. That was 13 years ago and guess what – she is going to be one of my room mates again this week! We have stayed together many times over the years.
Roommates really are the best. This year we have a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom suite and there will be 7 of us rooming together. Members of my PAWS team will be joining me and I’m so excited. I made some cute gifts for them. We often call them pillow gifts because you leave them on the pillow. I started with a totally different idea but it did not come together. So I ended up with this idea and I love how it turned out.
I stuck with the Mickey theme again. After I made the little friend gifts I decided I wanted to make Mickey tags for my room mates. Everyone’s has their name on it and if they want to they can transfer them to the bag that Stampin’ Up! will give us. If all 7000 of us have the same bag you need something to distinguish yours from everyone else’s.
Supply List
- 1-1/2″ Circle punch
- 1″ Circle punch
- Scalloped Tag Topper Punch
- Daffodil Delight card stock
- Real Red card stock
- Basic Black card stock
- Cookie Cutter punch
- Make a Difference stamp set
- Black Memento Ink
- White Stampin’ Chalk Marker
Inside the black canvas mini bag is a Cupcake in a Mug mix and frosting – so we can make birthday cupcakes. Plus napkins, a spoon and then I have the mug. I also brought mickey themed snacks for us – including more oreos and also goldfish. I found those at the grocery store. Now we have to figure out which night to have our cupcakes.

Aug 13, 2018 | Big Shot, In Colors, Memories & More, Retired Stamps for Sale |
Lovely Lipstick, Grapefruit Grove, Call Me Clover, Blueberry Bushel…..that leaves the last one – Pineapple Punch. I originally found a cute canvas bag with a pineapple on it that I had planned to give everyone at the Getaway but I wasn’t able to find enough of them. So I had to go to plan B. Which in the end was better. The perfect match to our Pineapple Punch color was these cute little pails. All that I needed to do was dress them up and fill them with something fun.
I used the Big Plans Memories & More Card Pack to decorate the pails. Everyone received the rest of the pack in their goody bag. I have mine set aside to make a stack of cards with. Did you know that the Memories & More card packs aren’t just for Memory Keeping? That’s why there is “more” in the title. Each card pack is also suited for greeting cards and paired up with the new Whisper White Memories & More Cards & Envelopes you can crank out some cards without even having to cut or stamp anything.
Supply List
- Big Plans Memories & More Card Pack
- Pineapple Punch grosgrain ribbon
- Pineapple Punch card stock
- Whisper White card stock
- Silver Thread
- Layering Circle Framelits Dies
- Big Shot Die Cutting Machine
Inside each pail was yellow piece of rock candy. My photo has a blue one because I was short a yellow one, so I got blue for myself and then forgot to get the photo before I gave all the yellow ones away. I had hoped to find pineapple flavored ones but all the yellow ones were actually lemon. Then the week after I was in the store and found Pineapple flavored kisses – they even had little pineapples on the foil. Those would have been a perfect fit too. Darn it.
If you live local to me be sure to stop by my BOGO sale this weekend – Friday and Saturday. I have lots of retired items for sale. I’m making my final push to earn the incentive trip to Greece for next summer. Come shop and get new catalog products free!
