Stampin' Up! Stampladee

Lovely Lace meets A Beautiful Bunch Stamp Set with Deb Valder

Written by Deb on July 23, 2014 · 7 Comments

Hidy Ho Stampers,

I hope your days is super fantastic! A few thunder storms rolled through Ballston Spa tonight so hopefully it will lift the humidity we've had that past couple of days. Okay, down to business!

1. First, the end of the month is getting closer. The July special is "When you buy three packs of Designer Series Paper found on pages 186 and 187,then you get one more pack for free" it's almost a $15 savings. Hop on over to my online store www.stampladee.stampinup.net and make sure you purchase now before the end of the month creeps up on you!

Use Hostess Code 2AKEA4SS when you are shopping.

2. If you were receiving TWO emails for my posts, I think we have it fixed now. You should only be receiving one. When I switched over to Feedblitz instead of Feedburner, some of you did not opt out of the Feedburner. So to make a long story short, it should be fixed, if it's not, let me know.

3. August is coming and so is our Big Shot Special! Stay tuned for more details!

Today's card I call Soft and Lovely……

What do you think?

Stamp Set: Beautiful Bunch #134279 wood or #134282 clear mount

Card Stock: #133679 Lost Lagoon and #100730 Whisper White

Grab and Go Bags with Deb Valder

Written by Deb on July 6, 2014 · Leave a Comment

Hidy Ho Stampers,

I forgot to post the bags…

These bags are so nice. I had to come up with something that my customers could put on the stamp table so they weren't always reaching down in their BIG bags next to them. So these are PERFECT! Everyone can have it on the table at the same time, right in front of them – they stay neat and organized and everything is right at the finger tips.

The cost of the bag is $85.00 (plus shipping if you are not local to pick it up) which is exactly what the contents costs if you were to purchase it yourself. I give you the bag for free – it's a $12 value. This is what it includes:

A beautiful stampin' BOW
An itemized list of the contents in the bag (all laminated and ready for you to re-order anything you run out of)
I make you a personalized name tag (with everyone having the same bag, it was an identity thing :0)
glue dots
anywhere glue sticks
stampin dimensionals
snail adhesive
snail refill
crystal effects
multipurpose liquid glue
2-way glue
sticky strip
adhesive remover
bone folder
paper snips
silicone sheet

I have one of these bags that I take to every stamping event I attend. I also use it on my stamp table when I'm creating so everything stays organized. It's the best thing I ever came up with. I've sold so many of them and EVERYONE loves it. I try to personalize it so it's unique to you! If you are interested, contact me.

Blendabilities meet Crystal Effects Technique with Deb Valder

Written by Deb on July 6, 2014 · 20 Comments

Hidy Ho stampers,

Today here in Ballston Spa, New York, is the PERFECT weather day, the sun is shining, it's not too cold, it's not too hot and there is a very slight breeze. Sooooooooo gorgeous. Perfect day to be sitting on the front porch in one of our rockers writing to all of you! So look what came to visit me while I was sitting…

do you see the little baby fawn over by the garden shed?

It's a Bambi – tiny with spots – his mom was snorting at Kevin the other day!

he visits often! we named him Morton.

Today's card technique is soooooooo much fun and it was totally NOT what I should have been doing today (does that ever happen to you). But I started it accidentally and kept on going because it was so much fun.

too stinken cute right?

these are cloudy because they were just made and still wet

here you can see they are drying

can you tell the difference? When they are dry, they become clear.

now take your blendabilities and color.

so this is the card without the embellishments

cute but there can be more…

tah dah!

can you see how they are raised?

Okay you guys that were raised in the 70's, remember the Smiley faces?

I used Crystal Effects to make the Smiley Face and for the letters.

More Smiley Faces!

And I just love this one…

Used the Kinda Eclectic and Think Happy Stamp Sets!

Oh happy days!

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, I need to get back to what I SHOULD be doing! :0) instead of what I WANT to be doing! Have a great day, see you tomorrow.

JULY 1-15 HOSTESS CODE IS ZNRQUZUG

shop on my website

www.stampladee.stampinup.net

Blendabilities-diamond-oval-double-gate-tri-fold-card-blessed-easter-deb-valder 2

Blendabilities and Bloom With Hope Hostess Set

which is my FAVORITE

1. $1,000 Workshop – YOU can be part of this! Everyone that participates will be a hostess.

a. I am having a $1,000 Catalog Workshop to give everyone a chance to participate in the benefits of being a Stampin' Up! hostess (but instead of putting in a $150 order, you only have to put in a $100 order).

b. For every $100 order you put in (and you can put in multiple orders), you will receive either a half price item or $25 in Hostess Dollars!

c. What does that mean to you? Normally you have to purchase $150 in order to receive $25 in free hostess product. BUT – I will combine these orders to get to $1,000 and EVERYONE will be a hostess. Everyone will receive either $25 in product OR one 1/2 price item. You can submit as many $100 orders as you like!

HOW TO PARTICIPATE:

a. FIRST let me know you are participating!! Shoot me an email at stampladee@aol.com

It's on a first come first serve basis so get your orders in asap so you have first choice of the two options. The advantage of ordering on my website and using the hostess code is so that you can have your order delivered directly to your home and you don't have to wait until the 15th to have me put it in.

d. OPTION 2 – SEND ME YOUR ORDER IN AN EMAIL – and I will place the order for you. When it arrives, I will let you know so you can pick it up.
