Hello Friends,

It's Graduation time again.  I'm excited to share with you a couple of cute Graduation Card ideas using the Beautiful You stamp set and the A Good Man stamp set.  I love both Graduation Cards.  Her beautiful, jubilant dance and his kick back and relax attitude.  His beach setting is especially fun for me because Joe and I celebrated by going to the beach the day after Graduation.

If you are a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator you may have already ordered the A Good Man stamp set in your preorder, and if you are not a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, the A Good Man stamp set will be available starting June 4, 2019.  The fun thing about these two stamp sets is that the line art is very similar and they can be mixed and matched.  The Beautiful You stamp set is available is both the current and the new Stampin' Up! Catalogs!

I use the Beautiful You stamp set to make a card for a young lady.

And I used the new A Good Man stamp set to make a Graduation Card for a young man. 

Graduation Card Tips and Tricks

They were both quite simple to make.  Simply stamp and color.  The Graduation Caps are a 3/4" square of Basic Black card stock and a tassel.  The diploma is simply a teeny piece of white paper rolled up with a little bit of Baker's Twine to hold everything together.

Most of My Catalogs Have Been Shipped or Delivered!

Trust me, the Stampin' Up! Catalog is drool-worthy!

Welcome Tag 

Hello Friends,

As a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator this time of year is exciting because demonstrators from around the world will be placing their preorders from the 2019-2020 Stampin' Up! Catalog.  While it is a time of anticipation, there is also a little bit of lament.  To make room for all our fabulous new Crafting Supplies, we have to say good-bye to some of our current favorites.  Today, I'm giving a final salute to the Treehouse Adventure stamp set by Stampin' Up! with 6 project ideas.

I really loved this card with the partial Buffalo Check background and the house being lifted with a bundle of balloons. Get the full Scoop

You may remember this Happy Birthday Easel card from earlier this week.  Learn How to Make the Treehouse Adventure Easel Card

The real wow on this card is the inside.  It's a Shadow Box card that I made for our Pastor and his wife.  They were a wonderful team and we loved them dearly, but it was time for them to move on to a new adventure. Treehouse Adventure Shadow Box Card Details

What can I say?  My imagination runs wild when I use the bouquet of balloons from the Hand Delivered hostess stamp set with the house from the Treehouse Adventure stamp set. Get the Details

What kid doesn't love a tree complete with a tire swing?  

Note:  The Treehouse Adventure stamp set is only available until June 3, 2019, or WHILE SUPPLIES LAST.  

Would you have an adventure of your own? 

We'd love to have you
