FUN news Just for You!

Hello friends!  Welcome to the first day in February!

It's Friday today and the weekend is here! YAY!

Do things look a bit different on my blog lately?  Well it's because I'm a

Stampin' Up! demonstrator...again!! LOL!  I just wanted my blog to reflect it now is all.

You will notice that I have links on the left side of my blog that will take you to my Stampin' Up! website and my Stampin' Up! store where you can shop on-line 24-7 in your PJs!!

You can also click to see the catalog, the current Spring catalog as well as the all-time fave of everyone which is Sale-a-bration!! (SAB to the expertise!)  It's here!!  Get FREE stuff when you buy!

With all of this being said, I will not only keep you up to date with Stampin' Up!, but you can also expect to see some creations that I'd like to share with you using those products!

Don't worry!!!  I will STILL be using those other stamps/products that I always have...so nothing has really changed all that much other than you will probably be seeing more Stampin' Up! than you have recently.  (Due to Stampin' Up! rules, I cannot be on competitive company design teams through which I receive compensation nor can I link to other competitive stores...so my blog now reflects those rules.)

I'm sad to have to step down from a couple of teams, but I can still use those images!  Yay!

I'm still on the Fussy and Fancy Friday, as well as the up-coming new CAS on Sunday design team challenge blogs, so you will be seeing creations from me for those of course!

Technically I use Stampin' Up! on most ALL of the creations I make anyway...so I'm just sharing with you that you can now purchase it from me!! (people within the U.S.)  That's a GOOD thing!!

I haven't left behind my love of what I do...just sharing even more with you is all!! :)

----------------------------------------------------

So...now that I've gotten those things taken care of....let's STAMP SMILES!!! 

I've been wanting to do something with this set...so I just had FUN with it!!

I call this one Luscious Layered Labels!! :)  The thing that most people probably don't think of when they see this Layered Labels set is that you can change out the sentiments if you don't want what is offered in the set.  (I've placed another sentiment over the "create" sentiment that is originally on this stamp image.)

This color combo has got to be my all time fave and I know I will miss these colors terribly this year when they are retired!

I've used the Wisteria Wonder, Pool Party and Lucky Limeade...Yummy!

I actually wasn't sure about this color combo with a "vintage" style...but it works fine.

I wanted to try this fun sketch with it:

along with these other challenges:

Tuesday Alchemy - anything goes

Creative Belli (CBC162)- rhinestones

That's all for me today friends.  Hope you enjoy your weekend and you can stay in and stamp!
