Hi everyone! As you can see, I still have the Lift Me Up! Stamp set on my desk. It is such a cute set that I thought I would make a few more cards with it. And, since Valentine's Day is fast approaching, I thought I would use the "Love Is In The Air" sentiment this time. I used the coordinating Up and Away dies to cut out clouds and the larger balloon so I could add more layers to my card.
I kinda sorta want to someday go on a hot air balloon ride, but part of me is afraid too. I have a bit of a heights issue. But it just seems so pretty and romantic doesn't it? Hmm, maybe I could do it. Or I have seen some that stay tethered to the ground, do those still count? I could maybe start there. :)
One of the great things about the Lift Me Up stamp set is the variety of occasions you can use it for. You've got a birthday stamp, we all need those, but also a love, and thanks, and congratulations, great for a job promotion or school graduation. And the sending smiles across the miles is a nice note to send to a friend who's away or kids off at college far away family. And the one about lifting spirits is great too. Perfect for someone recuperating, or who has suffered a loss. See, I bet you hadn't noticed how versatile this set is :)
I made this card to use in a challenge at www.splitcoaststampers.com That is a super great site for stampers with challenges and a huge gallery of images, alphabetized by stamp name! Look up "Lift me up" and see hundreds (truly hundreds, I checked after I typed that to be sure) of card samples using this set. The challenge for this card was to make a simple version and a stepped up version of the same card. The one on the left is my simple. It is all stamping, no layers or dies. Then on the right we have the stepped up, with lots of layers and Baker's Twine and black rhinestones.
I also made a few of this one too before I put the stamp set back on the shelf for a while. I needed a quick and cute note card, so this worked out nicely.

Hi Everyone! I am starting something new and offering Stamp Camp in the Mail! I am going to try and feature a couple stamp sets a month and offer the stamps and cardstock pieces as a kit for you to make the cards at home. You would need to add your own ink and adhesives. I would send you the stamp set, and the cardstock and envelopes, as well as a PDF of how to put your cards together.
Everything will be cut and ready for you to stamp and assemble. Colors needed are Pacific Point, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive and Real Red stamp pads, and Basic Black Stampin' Write marker.
Add the coordinating dies to your Stamp Camp to go and you will get a bonus of 12 6x6 sheets of balloon themed Designer Series paper, as well as a FREE level One choice from the Sale-a-Bration Catalog. Check the offerings in the catalog by clicking the catalog link to the right on the blog sidebar.
The Bonus Designer Series Paper is only available while supplies last. It is a discontinued paper but it is so perfect for this stamp set and super cute, that I wanted to offer it. If I run out I will offer you a substitution and you can decide if you still want to go ahead.

Hi everyone! Today I thought I would share a recent Scrapbook page. I have recently gotten back into using my Stampin' Up! projects for scrapbooking. It seems that I haven't made many pages now that Stampin' Up! no longer sells the digital program. Back when I started with Stampin' Up! I was mainly a scrapbooker. I wanted to document the year of my son's life that my husband was going to miss while he was stationed up Iraq. My son was turning 3 and that is a pretty cute year with lots of firsts and adventures. I kept that going for a few years and got into card making as well. Then when Stampin' Up! introduced their digital scrapbook program, I went all in and made a lot of pages that way. I will admit, I still use that program and will continue to do so, but with some of my older photos that are printed out (pre-digital camera) I am going back to making some traditional pages! I have teamed up with some other Stampin' Up! demonstrators to host a Facebook group called 'Stampin' Up! Scrapbooking Global'. We have demonstrators from all around the globe and we are sharing pages using Stampin' Up! products! This page is not just for demonstrators. It is for anyone who is interested in scrapbooking. You can join our page, and I hope you will! Here is a link https://www.facebook.com/groups/1204438373008307/ It is a closed group, but ask to join and I will approve you. Today's page is for a challenge where we were to make a page about ourselves. I used this photo from the April Stampin' Up! OnStage event. I used the new Lift Me Up! bundle and the new Sale-a-Bration paper.
I love this new hot air balloon! The whole set is great and the dies are amazing. You get three sizes of hot air balloons, clouds and extra pieces to use as the background for the largest balloon, so that you can use multiple colors on it, so fun.
And, during Sale-a-Bration, if you purchase the Lift Me Up bundle for $53.00, you get the paper pack FREE!
Sale-a-Bration items are only available for a limited time, so act quickly. Contact me with any questions you may have, I am happy to help! Product List
