Prize #8 - Snail Adhesive. Used in today's project -

~*~*~*~*~

So today I am sharing a quick and easy gift you can still make for the holidays. It is a Easel Card that includes a small calendar. I ordered mine early - so it may be too late to get the calendars on time - but you could print one from online or substitute a small package of post it notes.

These are the gifts that I mailed out to my TEAM members and current CLUB members for the holidays as a thank you for their support. I made 71 of them! The background image was created by cutting apart some of the beautiful folders we as demonstrators can order from Stampin' Up! I was able to get 6 layers from each folder. Then depending on the design I ended up with - they were stamped with one of several different inspirational verses.

If you don't have those folders - all you need to do is stamp a layer in any design you'd like. Here is a simple pattern for making your own easel cards -

All of they layers were just adhered together with snail adhesive.

Since they fold pretty flat - I was able to send them in a regular envelope - that I had to decorate to coordinate of course.

Hope you enjoyed this project, and will try making some easel gifts of your own.

Soooo - what happens in VEGAS does not stay in VEGAS!

We bring it all back - to share with you!

Recently I had the privilege of attending OnStage Stampin' Up! in LasVegas with eight of my Amazing Team Members. What a great event. I always come back super energized - so am going to share a bit with you today. Those of us who attended got our Annual catalogs - these won't be available to the other demonstrators and our customers till sometime in May - and we can't order from it till June (but watch for a sneak peek special in May.) Anyway - it is AMAZING - we can't share much now - but you will LOVE it! So if you want your very own copy and do not have a U.S. demonstrator - or are already my customer - please let me know and you will get yours in May. If you have another demonstrator - please contact them to receive your copy.

Friday afternoon we arrived and I had this wonderful room -

With an awesome view -

All SU demonstrators who achieved the level of Silver Elite or above got star treatment at CentreStage on Friday night - great food, training and prizes - here's my haul from that night - not bad!

And of course I have to share food pictures - it was all sooo yummy!

Salad

Dinner

Dessert

The best part was seeing my TEAM members that were able to come from all over (several states) to be there -

Kelea, Paula, Toni, Sarah, Kathy, Rina, Jean, Me, and Vicki!

Our TEAM did a group swap - just look at these great cards - they did an amazing job!

Vicki D

And, even though it was a card swap - one of my Team members, Kelea, made these awesome mugs for each of us. I am a coffee lover - so any mug gets me excited - but our Team Name is the Crazy Stamping Ladies - so how cool is that!!! You will see me with this mug - often! See you soon ~Maureen

New Year - New Calendar!

So I've seen a lot of people posting their new calendars for 2018 and I thought I've better share mine before it's getting close to 2019 lol! Below are examples of the easel calendars I made for my downline and club members. They are pretty straight forward - easel cards with the calendar - and the pots of brushes.

But - I made over 60 of these, and let me tell you - fussy cutting those images, and then fussy cutting the DSP to go on the pot - that was some chore. And I love to fussy cut. But even for me - with the holidays - it was a little much.

Fortunately - I love how they turned out!

You can see below how the easel stands against the calendar frame.

Here's another color - had to switch the colors up to give me some change in what I was doing.

Hope you liked them! If you want one next year - just join my TEAM or one of my CLUBS. Full details on each at the top of the page! ~Maureen

TEAM gifts from Heidi....

I don't think I ever shared these simply adorable gifts my daughter Heidi made for the members of our TEAM attending OnStage in November. They are Trader Joe's coffee and tea chocolate bars - that come in really fun packaging to start. Of course mine was a coffee one -

But then with some simple stamping and cutting - she decorated them just delightfully! I am a clean and simple girl - and these to me are just sooooo cute! A rainbow of treats!

She used the Coffee Cafe set on page 31 of our annual catalog - and some beautiful cardstock colors to compliment the candy wrappers.
Hope you find a way to pretty up a gift for someone - you just might make their day! ~Maureen

TEAM Congrats cards for May

I am so excited to share these cards - as I am so in love with this new Stampin' Up! set "Crafting Forever". First here are the TEAM cards I made to send out to some of my top achievers. Are the just adorable?!

I watercolored the pots of brushes on white shimmer paper using archival black for stamping and an aqua painter and ink directly from the pads for the painting.

Here you can see that these pots were cut out and popped up on the white layer to give the card some dimension.

Below - getting ready to go in the mail.

I did a similar thing for my recent Open House.

This is what was given out to the first 10 people that RSVP'd. So cute!

Hope you all check out this set. If you want to order, or would like more information about this product or Stampin' Up! in general - please email me at crazystampinglady@gmail.com
