  • Something totally COOL from Stampin' Up!
The "class" consists of PDF documents and videos!
30+ projects--with supply lists for all of them!!!  


Learn innovative ways to get the most out of your supplies (from stamps to the Big Shot) with clever tips and all the techniques you need to start creating with success.
 
Divided into six sections focused on a variety of topics, this class includes videos, step outs, and supply lists for 30+ projects. Join the fun!
 
BEST PART--IT COSTS ONLY $14.95 

You simply order item # 133385



You will then get the information to download all the files and video's.  It appears to be a "mydigitalstudio" download--but it is NOT--just downloaded the same way.  Files are all PDF files and mp4 files for the video's. 
 


Here are some basic instructions from Stampin' Up! for downloading--it was really easy--I did not have any troubles!

PC Instructions
The files will be downloaded as archive files that you can then extract and save on your computer. When you click on the download link, an extraction program will automatically launch. Choose the location where you would like to save the files (be sure to note where you save them). Follow the prompts on the extraction program, then navigate to the location where you saved the files. Click on the file and open.
Mac Instructions
When you click on the download link, the file will be mounted as a drive. Once it is mounted, open the drive and drag and drop the files to the location of your choice on your hard drive. The files can then be opened.

And now I am off to look at all the projects and to start creating.....you can do so too!

I CASED this card from Sandra Conner and it was on the Pals Paper Arts Challenge Website.  I love the Bashful Blue and Black...so unconventional for a Valentine's Card but it looks great!

Stampin' Up needs to bring back the Whisper White Stamp Pad!! Thank goodness I have an ink refill too. It's not available at this time but again, I'm hoping they bring it back! The original card had different and current available from Stampin' Up and I just use what I have!  The Pink & Red Polka Dot paper & the mini dot paper is also Stampin' Up that has been discontinued but both were on the Clearance Rack for less than 1/2 the original price so it's good to check out the bargains from time to time at:

www.kindigcrafts.stampinup.net
Go to Shop Now and then the Clearance Rack!

OK, so here is what's available at Stampin' Up to make this card:

Real Red Paper #102482
Basic Black Paper #121045
Bashful Blue Paper #105120

Layered Labels Stampset #127072

Happy Valentine's Day!


Super easy cards to create with Whisper White Paper, Real Red Ink, a Valentine stamp and some heart doilies!  I then embellished with red and clear rhinestones and also added some puffy stickers!  The designer paper is also from Stampin' Up, but it is discontinued. Had to get these together quick to send out to grandkids and some nieces and nephews! 

Hope everyone has a nice day today and always!

Stampin' Hugs to all!
