Fast Fuse special

 

Stampin' Up! has a special on Fast Fuse adhesive but it's only for five days.  Buy one Fast Fuse and get two refills free.  Buy as many as you want.  Fast Fuse is my adhesive of choice.  I love how good things stick together.  I'll admit that there is a little learning curve to use it but once you figure it out you'll love it.  So let me know if you want to take advantage of this offer.  Or you can always order it yourself if you go to my web page. 

Paper Pumpkin and Sale A Bration

If you've ever thought about subscribing to Paper Pumpkin now might be a great time to do it.  If you buy a pre-paid subscription then you qualify for free Sale A Bration items.  On page nine of the annual catalog you'll find the prices and item numbers for the pre-paid subscriptions.  If you get a 3 month subscription then you qualify for a free level 1 Sale A Bration item.  If you get a 6 month subscription then you quality for 2 level 1 items or 1 level 2 items.  And best of all is a 12 month subscription you would qualify for 4 level 1 items or 2 level 2 items or do like I did and get 2 level 1 items and 1 level 2 item.  And the best part is the fact that it qualifies as a workshop so you will earn hostess benefits.  So think about it and let me know if you're interested. 

Sorry I've been so slow posting anything.  I had surgery, total knee replacement, a week ago and it really kicked my butt.  Turns out I'm allergic to the pain meds they were giving me. 

Anyway here's the next Designer Series Paper.  It's called "True Gentleman" and I love it for masculine cards.  It's part of a suite and there's a punch, buttons, stamp set and some beautiful nave ribbon. 

 

 

Here's a card made with this suite.  I didn't have the navy ribbon so I substituted this punch.  I could have used the long strip from the Flourish Thinlits.  It would be faster than the punch.  Remember, anytime you need a piece of ribbon you can use the piece from the thinlits.  You'll probably see this card in a class sometime.  I'll look for some more samples for you.

Occsions DSP

The Occasions catalog has some really beautiful designer series paper.  Here is the Painted With Love paper.  It's a little hard to see in the picture but there's some foil on these.  It shows up a little better in the close up's.  I think you're really going to love this paper. 

 

 

In the above sample the yellow is actually gold foil.  Don't know why it shows like this.  In the sample below the gold hearts are foil also. 

Sale A Bration is here and I'm really late.

 

Here's one of the best reasons to become a Stampin' Up! demonstrator.  Swap Cards.  These are from Tues night's Rubber Queen meeting. 

Some of these images are stamp sets out of the Occasions catalog and some are from the Sale A Bration catalog.  I hope to be posting a lot more pictures of Sale A Bration catalog because these are the ones that you can get for free.  On the bottom row the three cards on the left were made with Sale A Bration sets. 

A word of warning.  I'm not sure what's going to happen with card class this month.  It's on Jan.  25th here at the Paper Palace.  My problem is that I'm scheduled for a total knee replacement on Jan. 17th.  Will I be ready for a card class on Jan. 25th?  Not sure.  When I had my other knee done I ended up in the nursing home for a few days after surgery.  So I guess you'll just have to stayed tuned for further updates.  I'm sure that I will still have card class on Jan. 29th at Penny Lane in Ashley.  That might be the only class that I'll have in Jan.
