Whoo-Hoo! 23 YEARS!

It came to me in a dream...I had to make a STAMPINVERSARY card!  Today marks 23 years as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and I wanted to celebrate!  And since I make cards, I figured I should do that!  I started with the new Wildflower Birthday Suite of products (from the upcoming January-April 2025 Mini Catalog) since that was on my desk.  It definitely is my favorite new suite...been working on projects for it's own special stamp class!

**Edited to add this close-up of the gold foil numbers!  You can see these dies starting January 7th!

This Wildflower Birthday Suite will be available for purchase starting January 7th and it's going to be my go-to for this year's birthday cards!  Every New Year's my resolution is to actually mail birthday cards!  I have come to the conclusion that I do need to make a whole bunch to have on had so I can mail one out in a timely fashion!  My other "hack" this year is to use the Perpetual Beauty Calendar to make sure I have those birthday DATES handy!

SCROLL DOWN to see the products I used for my celebration card and the birthday calendar I mentioned!

Time for VALENTINES!

Now that it's January, it is time for VALENTINES!  This is my first one for this year...although I actually made it in December even before Christmas!  My family thought it was kinda strange for me to be making valentines in December, but us crafters know that we gotta start crafting waaaay before the actual holiday!  (Not that that's typically the case with me...ha!)

This featured card uses a new stamp set, Hugs for Love, from the January-April 2025 Mini Catalog...which goes live on JANUARY 7th!  I love using some unexpected colors for valentines!  Like in this card, we have Balmy Blue and Fresh Feesia with a touch of Calypso Coral.

Also coming January 7 is SALE-A-BRATION 2025!  The valentine above uses my FAVORITE embellishment of all time....Adhesive-Backed Sequins!  These ones are PURPLE and you can only get them as a Sale-a-Bration reward with a qualifying $60 order.

You may notice that I used a card template from page 12 of the January-April 2025 Mini Catalog.  Templates are my go-to when I start crafting!  We all need some kind of inspiration and these templates sure are helpful!  Check out the templates on page 22 of the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog too!
