I just finished up 70 of these bad boys for the Syracuse Regional Seminar coming up at the end of the month here. There's still room for YOU to join us!!!!! This Regional Seminar is open to BOTH Demonstrators and Guests for just TWO more days — until this Wednesday February 10th!! If you want to come along, let me know right away so that we can get you in! (No, you don't HAVE to make 70 SWAPs yourself to attend, that's an if you want to type of thing!)

ALY'S HELPFUL HINTS:

  • Don't recognize the images I used here? They're all part of FABULOUS new stamp set called "Element of Style" that is coming out in the Summer Mini Catalog on May 1st!! I was fortunate to receive this stamp set early and for FREE by attending Stampin' Up!'s Leadership Conference in January. I'm already in love with it, I think it's going to be a "most used!"
  • At Leadership Conference Shelli Gardner gave a presentation on "Vintage" Stamping. I'm glad to have a name for what I think I love!!! I've always loved collage stamping but never felt I was quite Shabby Chic. Well, I'm vintage!! Though I don't always stamp that way by any means, it's what I love the most. So I allowed myself to go natural for myself and BE VINTAGE for this card.
  • Getting to my Vintage roots, I discovered my MOST FAVORITE Stampin' Up! product, and it's one that I haven't hardly touched — the "Color Spritzer Tool" — oh my GOSH to I love spritzing marker on my cards!!  I just can't stop myself!! We'll be putting this tool to good use at my Let's Sale-A-Brate Card Class coming up on February 20th, so be sure to register!
  • A little tip for Color Spritzing: You're going to use up the ink in your marker… a lot. But the tips do NOT get ruined when you use it properly! So to get more ink out of my markers, when it started to "go dead" (which it did a lot making 70 of these cards!) I soaked up some of it's coordinating re-inker into it's tip. Voila! New Marker!
  • The white you see on the Creamy Caramel Background is a White Craft Pad that I dragged across the cardstock — fun, fun! Give it a try!
  • You have permission to make PAPER WADS! You can even throw them at someone if you really want! Paper Wads are the best way to distress your cardstock. I let Landon and Brad HAVE AT IT with my pile of Brocade Blue Cardstock to make less work for me – and more fun for them!
