I’ve been a demo since 2003 and this was the first year I earned the Stampin’ Up Incentive Trip. I could not have been any more thrilled! Thank you so much to everyone who helped me earn it! I totally love and appreciate you! Two weeks later I received an email telling me the trip had been cancelled due to Covid. Stampin’ Up has demos from all over the world that wouldn’t have been able to attend. Many of us were very sad, as you can imagine. Steve and I will be doing something special with the cash pay out I’ll receive. I will still get some fun “pillow gifts” next May that I’ll be excited to show you as soon as I get them. 🙂 Below is a picture of me just moments after finding out I had earned the trip. My sweet friend and team mate, Barb, arrived at my door with balloons, telling me she just promoted to Silver Elite. That gave me the rest of the points I needed to earn the trip.

I made this Congratulations card for a friend who just became a Grandma for the first time. How exciting! Here’s a Live Video showing all the details about how we put this card together as a group. Sometimes it’s fun to put a card together with ideas from several people. Steve had the idea to pin the teddy bear up by one ear and that makes my heart happy.

Product List

Counting Sheep

Only 13 more days and counting…counting sheep?….counting down until the end of Sale-A-Bration. Which of the free SAB products have been your favorites? Which one do you still want to get before it’s too late? You can choose Counting Sheep and Sheep Dies, each with a $50 order.

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge!  This week’s challenge #FF0093 is Balloons Around the World Day which is October 1st.

The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE or more of the items in your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge  I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d be happy to help you! From the Inspo List I used balloons, sun, and stripes.  Your entry doesn’t have to have anything to do with Balloons Around the World Day.

For 9 days every summer, Iowa skies come alive as nearly 100 hot air balloons paint the town with brilliant colors and charming special shapes. This happens in Indianola, Iowa, about 30 minutes from where I live. It’s an amazing thing to see. You should plan a trip to Iowa to see the balloons and come and visit Steve and I.

This was a super fun card to make. You can watch this video of my FB Live to get all the details about how to make this card. Please subscribe to my YouTube channel while you’re there.

One of my favorite cards to make is my Baby Onesie cards. I’ve sent them to new parents with a baby gift, used them for baby shower invites, and given a set to new Moms to send as baby thank you cards. The Give it a Whirl dies make these baby girl cards the cutest ever with the perfect stitched scallop die. I used the Checks & Dots Embossing folder and the new Star-Crossed Embossing folder.
