Today is the last day to grab your SALE-A-bration freebies (such as this Amazing Phrasing stamp set) in my store. I had a great time last week at #STAMPINUPBACKSTAGE in New Orleans. Here are 2 swap cards I brought back featuring the beautiful Texture Chic Suite. This Suite has paper and stamp images for all 4 seasons and is perfect for any occasion.

This fun fold card from my roommate Linda adds sentiments from Amazing Phrasing. And yes, if you read the handwriting, I have earned the next Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip – a cruise for 2 to Norway next May. I must add a disclaimer that earning a trip takes a lot of hard work and is earned by less than 1% of demonstrators. But it is so worth it because Stampin’ Up! knows how to surprise, delight and reward their demonstrators.

Here’s Liz, me and Linda all ready for the 2nd Line parade in New Orleans at BackStage. (This event is for leaders at a certain title – about 4% of demonstrators). They closed off the streets for our group of 500+ demonstrators, staff and 2 bands. Wow, was that an amazing experience to BE THE PARADE! The next event – On Stage is open to all demonstrators and has locations all over the world – we will be attending in Pittsburgh. Maybe the fun of making new friends and gathering together will inspire you to Join The Fun.

This beautiful swap card by Lisa also uses the Texture Chic Suite adding on the Leaf Fall Embossing Folder, copper embossing, and an ink splattering technique.

Kim’s tips:

1. Visit my store today for last minute Sale-a-bration freebies or Join Stampin’ Up! to be part of our next event and be first to get your hands on new products at a discount. DISCLAIMER: BEIGNETS NOT INCLUDED.
2. Check back tomorrow for FOUR – yes 4 special releases for September (Perfect Partners dies/bundles, World Card Making Day bundles, Weekly Deals AND new branded merchandise. (Hint – one item only available to demonstrators is something that people keep begging me for at craft retreats).

Happy crafting,
