Summer Crafting

is Summer Fun

It’s hard to believe it’s almost the middle of July! Wow, that sure went fast. Some of you might be thinking that time is standing still because of all the changes going on with Covid-19. I hope you’ve all been staying healthy and have kept a good attitude through all of it. I know it isn’t easy to do during a difficult time.

I want to add a little fun to your weekends by offering a workshop once a month. Also, by the end of July I will be having some online classes via Zoom and FB Live.

Out of Quarantine, New Catalog Is Out Too

Posted on June 9, 2020 by Annabelle's Stamping Studio

Out of Quarantine

and

The New 2020-2021 Catalog Is Out!

Can it be true? Yes, it’s true! we can finally start inching out a little bit and enjoy ourselves in the beautiful sunshine. While we’re not completely out of the woods yet, the Coronavirus (COVID-19) is finally under a good control and very few new cases have been added since mid March. If all of us continue doing our part, we will be continuing to help control the virus. It definitely hit some harder than others, but hard nonetheless.

We’ve changed the way we do things all the way from the way we eat, shop, work, play, dress, socialize and entertain ourselves. We went from eating out, to cooking at home (my son learned how to use an InstaPot), shopping the malls to shopping online, working in the office to woking at home, going to movie theaters to streaming movies online. We’ve gone from going to sports to watching old games online, we’ve gone from gathering in large crowds like weddings (my son’s wedding postponed until next summer) funerals, parties, graduations to drive by celebrations and we’ve added a new fashion statement to our wardrobe, the “Mask”. Instead of asking what are you wearing tonight, we’re going to ask which mask are you wearing with your new dress?”

How has all this changed your life? Each one of us has our story albeit happy, sad, or everything in between. All I can say is I’m still here supporting you, helping to keep you up to date with your very special hobby and love of paper crafting. There has never been a better time than now that we can all use receiving a special card in the mail or send a beautiful card to a loved one that we haven’t been able to see for 3 months. I’m sure that each one of us has someone in our lives that will be quarantined much longer than the average person. Let’s show them some love, the elderly and more mature. Let’s take advantage of this “down” time to create beautiful projects and not let our minds remain idle, but to use them to create good and send love. Take the time to send someone you love something from the heart that can never be taken from them, a paper hug and a written note of love, inspiration and hope. We’re almost done, just a little longer and we’ll all be stronger.

2020-2021 Annual Catalog

Isn’t she lovely? Isn’t she beautiful? Of course I’m referring to the new 2020-2021 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. If you haven’t gotten your copy, let me know and I’ll get one to you right away. I never know where to start when looking at it. Do I start in the back and go toward the front? Do I start in the front and move to the back? Do I start in the middle and go to the front, then go back to the middle and go toward the back? I bet you thought there was just one way, right? Well, leave it to me to mix it up a bit!

I’m going to just put it out there right here and now that I’m completely in LOVE with the Peony Garden Suite. I’ve always loved Peonies. They look so fresh, they’re fluffy and while they look very elegant, they can also look very Victorian with an an antique inspiration The full Peony Garden Suite can be seen on pages 82-84 of the catalog.

Here are some beautiful images from the catalog showcasing the Peony Garden Suite. I love the soft yet rich look of the whole suite.

I also love the beautiful satin ribbon and faceted gems used on these projects

I love the petal pink soft colors in these peonies

I love that you can use a lot of different colors for Peonies

FEBRUARY IS FOR FUN

Posted on January 28, 2020 by Annabelle's Stamping Studio

WE’VE BEEN BUSY

It’s hard to believe that it’s almost the end of January and the first month of the new year gone! Just like that. How has the new year been going for you? Have you kept your resolutions? Have you gotten organized and ready to take on the new year? Hopefully you all have done something productive this past month, and have started to make a difference.

On January 11 we had a very fun and successful workshop. I decided to start the year with getting a head start on our Valentine’s Day cards. We made 3 Valentine’s Day Cards and 2 All Occasion cards. I love all the sets we used for all the cards but I especially favor the Painted Poppies set. This is the new breakout set of the year! If there is only one set you purchase this year, it has to be this one! The coordinating colors are brilliant and the patterns in the DSP is amazing. There probably isn’t any occasion card you can’t make with it. Here is what we made with this amazing set.

BUCKLE CARD

This type of card is called a Buckle card. The green striped flap slides into a punched out slot underneath the large poppy to create a buckle. This holds the card closed. The sentiment and the stamped poppies are on the inside and outside of the card which gives the card nice dimension. Click on the product links below and get your supplies to make this beautiful card. (cased card, not my original design)

Product List

Peaceful Poppies Suite Bundle (English) [153938]	Flirty Flamingo 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [141416]	Basic Black 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [121045]
Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Markers Combo Pack [147275]	Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad [132708]	Poppy Parade 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [119793]

One of the best items (in my opinion) in the Sale-a-bration Brochure this year is the Golden Honey Bee SDSP pack. It contains foil paper and such great designs. One of the best things is that Stampin’ Up! has created a stamp set bundle (Click Product List Link below) to match, and of course it’s adorable. Here is the Bee card we made at the workshop.

Shhhhh, I call it “Sale-a-Bration Coordination”, I like that it rhymes…. What is “Coordination Product Release?” Click Here to see exactly what it’s all about. Stampin’ Up! has taken some of the items in our Sale-a-Bration Brochure and created matching die cutters for the sets. They’ve also included a package of DSP and some of those new dies, cut out the images on the DSP. It makes everything so easy and it makes Sale-a-Bration all the more exciting! ALSO, when you order any of the items in Coordination Product Release, your purchase counts toward the FREE Sale-a-Bration items. It’s a total win-win!! Notice that the flyer indicates “While Supplies Last”, don’t miss out!

For example: The Honey Bee Bundle #153792 on pg. 30 of the Mini Catalog coordinates with the FREE Golden Honey Bee Specialty Designer Paper #152311 pg. 10 of the Sale-a-Bration Brochure.

Sending You Thoughts #152297 pg. 11 Sale-a-Bration Brochure coordinates with two (or more) sets in the Mini Catalog: Forever Blossoms #153781 pg. 16, Timeless Tropical #153811 pg. 40 and the Heartfelt Bundle #153775 pg. 10.

Take A Look – WOW!

Posted on September 10, 2019 by Annabelle's Stamping Studio

HAVE YOU SEEN THE NEW

2019 HOLIDAY CATALOG?

If you haven’t gotten your complimentary copy of the 2019 Holiday Catalog, contact me and I will get one out to you right away. While you’re waiting for your own copy, you can click on the image of the catalog below and view a digital version.

Where do I begin when it comes to describing this catalog? Every year, I say something along these lines, but this year I just fell in love with one suite in particular, our Toile Tidings Suite (pages 6-9). It is such a classic and versatile suite. It’s a large suite with all the necessary items to make beautiful Christmas cards, tags, gift wrap, and gift packaging. There are two beautiful red rubber stamp sets in the suite (Toile Christmas Bundle & Tidings All Around Bundle) with coordinating dies for each stamp set First, I want to point out that the suite colors are traditional Christmas colors of Real Red and Garden Green. The coordinating background color is Very Vanilla which adds a warmth to the DSP and matching wrapping paper. I wanted to bring your attention to the ribbon in the suite. The Real Red Ruched ribbon is gorgeous. It’s soft, and gently gathered on both edges to create a rich ruched look to help make your packages or projects look so elegant. Then there’s the Garden Green Double Stitched ribbon. It’s stitched on both edges making it perfect to tie tags onto packages while providing a classic elegant look.

CLICK THE COVER TO VIEW THE DIGITAL COPY OF THE CATALOG

I seem to gravitate to the beautiful Christmas products we have but I don’t want to forget the fun Halloween products we have this year, including the Coffin Treat Boxes and the adorable Monster Bash DSP in the Monster Bash Suite (pg 52-54).

Thanksgiving is a holiday I love to focus on because sometimes it gets kind of overlooked between Halloween and Christmas. I’m really in love with the Come To Gather Suite (Pg. 46-48). I especially love the Come To Gather DSP and the Gather Together Bundle which of course includes the dies. I love the rich colors of Fall and they’re all included in this suite. I think you’ll love it too.

TIME: 12 Noon to 5:00 pm

PLACE: Annabelle’s Stamping Studio – 3300 Granada Circle, Brea

COST: $28 (my downline $23)

BRING A FRIEND: $23 (get $5 off your fee if you bring a friend (new to my workshop) – guest pays $28)

Cost of the workshop includes the following: All materials (except adhesive) to make 5 projects, Lunch and Door Prizes

PLEASE RSVP BY: JULY 10. Even you’re not 100% sure that you can make it, please let me know that you are thinking about it. I’d rather be prepared and make extra kits than to have to make kits at the last minute. REMEMBER if you can’t make it to the workshop, but want the projects, you can buy the pre-prepped kits @ $3.50 each BUT I need to know your choices by July 10. Thanks for your cooperation!

Please remember to bring your Stamping Workshop Kit. I provide everything you will need to make the projects (cardstock, DSP, embellishments, ribbon, ink pads, blocks, punches, scissors, paper cutter, bone folder, pierce mat, except adhesive. We don’t use all these adhesives every time, but it’s a good idea to have them in your kit. This includes, Mono Multipurpose Liquid Glue (w/green lid), Snail, Dimensionals (large & small), Glue Dots, Tear & Tape, and Fine Tip Glue Pen. If it is your first time to my workshop, or are a new stamper and don’t have these items, I will provide them for you at no charge.

If you feel more comfortable using your own tools such as scissors, foam stamping mat, blocks, bone folder, tool picker, please feel free to bring them in your stamping kit. Makes sure you label all your personal items as things get mixed up as our creative juices get flowing.

Here are pictures of the projects I’ve planned for next Saturday:

This picture does absolutely no justice to this stunning card. Actually it’s one of the easiest card to make. I know it looks complicated but it’s really easy. I LOVE the color combination.

Product List – Pretty Peacock Card

Royal Peacock Bundle [151100]	Noble Peacock Specialty Designer Series Paper [149493]	Noble Peacock Rhinestones [149494]
Pacific Point 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [111350]	Pacific Point Classic Stampin’ Pad [147098]	Old Olive 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [100702]

This card won a contest at Amy’s Business meeting. Done by Diane Garvin, and so beautiful. It’s so soft and eye catching. Thank you Diane.

Product List – Birds on a Branch Card

Free As A Bird Bundle [151123]	Pool Party 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [122924]	Pool Party Classic Stampin’ Pad [147107]	Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends Markers Combo Pack [147278]	Crumb Cake Light Stampin’ Blends Marker [144582]
Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers Combo Pack [144605]	Old Olive Light Stampin’ Blends Marker [144574]	Pearl Basic Jewels [144219]	5/8″ (1.6 Cm) Burlap Ribbon [141487]	Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad [132708]
Petal Pink Light Stampin’ Blends Marker [146866]	Crumb Cake 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [120953]

I’ve always liked the contrast between these colors. This is another sample of a super easy card. With a few cuts, punches, and a stamp look what you can make. Love the DSP in the Bird Ballad suite.

Product List – Bird Friendship

Calypso Coral 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [122925]	Crumb Cake 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [120953]	Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper [149592]	Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack [149485]
Very Vanilla 3/8″ (1 Cm) Scalloped Lace Trim [149593]	Whisper White 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [100730]	Frosted & Clear Epoxy Droplets [147801]	Woodland Embossing Folder [139673]

Let’s step it up a bit. I get that this card looks like a lot of work, but technically it’s really the embossing folder and the birthday word die cut that makes it pop! Definitely not hard, it just take a little bit of patience, but certainly fun to make!

Product List – Magnolia Happy Birthday

Magnolia 3D Embossing Folder [149579]	Mossy Meadow 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [133676]	Early Espresso 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [119686]	Magnolia Lane Cork Embellishments [149486]
Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper [149484]	Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack [149485]	Early Espresso Classic Stampin’ Pad [147114]

Changes, Changes, Changes

Posted on April 13, 2019 by Annabelle's Stamping Studio

Changes – Price Increases

And Discontinuing Items

Hello Stampers! I wanted to share the list of our price changes that will take effect in our new 2019-2020 Annual Catalog beginning June 4, 2019. The increases are small ranging from $0.25 to $1.00, which is good. I think it would be a good idea if you would stock up on your basic necessities (paper, ink, things like that) and save some money. Every little bit helps.

Also on Monday April 15 I’m going to post our Retiring List. Every year I let you guys know ahead of time that our retiring items are on a first come first served basis. Once the items are gone, they’re gone and Stampin’ Up! will not be replenishing their stock, so of course I encourage you to order what you see and want, as soon as possible.

To view Price Changes click the following link:

https://su-media.s3.amazonaws.com/media/catalogs/2019-2020%20Annual%20Catalog/Price%20Change%20Charts/03.25.19_AC_PRICE_CHANGE_US.pdf

Now for the big announcement! Stampin’ Up! is discontinuing our Big Shot die cutter and our Trimmer. Stampin’ Up! is in the process of designing their own branded die cutter and trimmer. This will eliminate a 3rd party supplier and will also eliminate backorders since we will get it directly from the manufacturer. This will be ideal as the dies and embossing folders will be made custom to fit the die cutter and work perfectly together. It will take a little time for that to happen, so we are not offering a die cutter or a trimmer in our new Annual Catalog. Stampin’ Up! is redesigning the dies, and embossing folders to work with our new products. In the meantime, we will continue to use our tools as normal and look forward to all the new products. If you have additional questions on any of these changes, let me know and I will happy to forward you additional information.

Pretty Spring Cards

And just like that…… It’s Easter!!! Well almost. You do have some time to make some beautiful cards and fun Easter gifts for the little ones. I just love the Fable Friends set for some darling Easter cards. Coupled with our beautiful Gingham Gala 6 x 6 DSP, you can come up with some amazing cards. I want to thank Amy Combs for these beautiful projects we made at her retreat. When I saw how adorable this little bunny is (kind of reminds me of the Velveteen Rabbit) I knew that it would be a big hit when coupled with the Gingham paper.

The other cards in this post are the cards we made at the last workshop on March 30th. We had such a good time as we do every workshop, but the ladies this time seemed to really like the “Fun Folds” cards and “out of the box” deigns. Only 1 of the 5 cards is a traditional front open card. Let me know what you think!

Here is the inside of the card above. It’s all in how you fold it!

I love this very easy card made with this bright DSP. It’s so versatile.

How awesome is this black card? The solid black makes the bright colors pop and makes for a beautiful card.

I’ve always loved Navy blue and bright green! I love the way this card perfectly blends together. You have geometric figures, checks, daisies, dots and a doily going on that’s what makes it so eye catching.

I love, love, love this trip fold card. You can make 2 out of 12 x 12 DSP. Again, it’s all in the fold. Not difficult to make, but it looks difficult so it’s always a big hit.

Some of the DSP we used is Sale-a-Bration DSP so it is no longer available but the cards can be made with any DSP of your choice. If you have any questions about availability on any stamp set or product, let me know and I’ll give you an update.

Mother’s Day Workshop

This month’s workshop theme will be Mother’s Day. We’re going to have so much fun working on making some amazing Mother’s Day Cards to give to a Mother in your life. Did you notice I said a Mother in your life? That’s because not only do I make my wonderful Mother a nice card every year, I also like to send Mother’s Day cards to my dear friends who are mother’s themselves and also grandmothers. What a wonderful way to show those you love on such a special day.

DATE: April 27, 2019

TIME: 11:00-4:00 PM

PLACE: Annabelle’s Stamping Studio, 3300 Granada Circle, Brea 92823

COST: $28 ($23 for my downline)

Cost Includes: All materials (except adhesive) necessary to make 5 projects, lunch, and door prizes. All projects include envelopes and accessories and embellishments to make beautiful projects.

Bring a friend to the workshop and save $5 on your entrance fee.

PLEASE RSVP by Thursday April 25 to (text) 714-401-4954 or email to annabelle@annabellesstampingstudio.com

NOTE: Please bring your Stamping Workshop Kits. I will have adhesive for sale if you need to replenish your supply!

SHOW YOUR LOVE – WORKSHOP

Posted on January 9, 2019 by Annabelle's Stamping Studio

FIRST WORKSHOP OF 2019!

Can you believe it’s already 2019? It’s crazy! Well we must start the New Year out right by gathering for our very first stamping and paper crafting workshop. I want to share a little bit about what we’re going to go over at the workshop and what we’ll be working on. First, I want to welcome my first recruit of 2019! Darshana Patel. Some of you know Darsh from past workshops. She told me she’s had a real desire to be a hobby demonstrator for a while and finally decided to take the plunge. Join me in welcoming Darsh. Hopefully she’ll be able to make it to the workshops in 2019.

The next big announcement is the all new 2019 Occasions Catalog and our annual Sale-a-Bration promotion! Everyone who attends the workshop on January 19, will get their copies of each catalog. If you can’t make it to the workshop, please contact me and I will get you your copies right away. The Occasions Catalog runs from January 3, 2019 to June 30, 2019. Sale-a-Bration runs from January 3, 2019 to March 31, 2019. The highlight of the two is of course Sale-a-Bration. Why? Because you earn FREE product and you can earn in 3 different ways. 1) For every $50 you spend (retail w/o s&t) you earn free product from the Sale-a-Bration Brochure. 2) When you Host your own workshop ($150 or more) you earn your hostess dollars AND Sale-a-Bration product as well. 3) When you Join My Team you earn $50 more product in your kit. Another great thing is, we now have 2 levels to give you more choices. The selection this year is versatile and Stampin’ Up! has given us a greater variety to choose from. Don’t miss out on this annual promotion, you won’t be disappointed. Visit my website through this post and you can see the catalogs online!

The theme of the workshop will be Valentine’s Day and all occasion cards.

DATE: January 19, 2019

TIME: 12 Noon to 5:00 pm

COST: $28 ($23 for my team)

If it is your first time attending my workshop, adhesive will be provided for you. You will be given a “Workshop Guidelines” hand out which outlines what you need to build your Workshop Stamping Kit which you will bring with you each time you attend thereafter.

At every workshop I need a little help with door prizes (time keeper) and photography (2 people). If you would like to help with either of these your name will be added twice to the Decide App, giving you a better chance of winning. Please let me know when you get here and I will hand that over to you. If you are the photographer, please try and take posed pictures showcasing our projects. Candid shots are always fun but we want to make sure “it’s our best shot” as they will be posted on Social Media. If you do not want your picture taken and posted on Social Media, please let the photographer know ahead of time.

DON’T FORGET!!!!!

Tomorrow January 10, 2019 is the last day to activate your Paper Pumpkin code if you’d like to get the January kit. It will be a Valentine’s Theme project. The 10th of every month is the last day to purchase, unsuspend, or activate your account for Paper Pumpkin. I’m so excited for this month’s kit. We’ve gotten some hints and it looks so cute.

New Sale-a-Bration Items

Posted on February 12, 2018February 20, 2018 by Annabelle's Stamping Studio

See the New Sale-a-Bration Items

Here!

Beginning Friday February 16, Stampin’ Up! is releasing some new free items to choose from during Sale-a-Bration (February 16 – March 31, 2018). We still have a lot of time left to earn all of the great products we have to choose from, but now we have even more to choose from.

I’m posting the new Sale-a-Bration Brochure so you can start your wish list. Stampin’ Up! is offering 2 items in Level 1 category (free w/$50 purchase) and they’ve added a set of 2 items for Level 2 (free w/$100 purchase).

All the choices in this release are so nice. I love the Eclectic Expressions stamp set (Level 1 category), I also love the Springtime Foils Speciality DSP (Level 1 category) and I’m really loving the Blossoming Basket Bundle in the Level 2 category. Check out the brochure for the great ideas they’ve come up with using these products. Of course I want them all!

What I like about the samples that they show in the brochure is that they’ve used some product from the first release items and paired them with some of the product from this brochure to make some really cool items. I think my favorite item in this brochure is the Basket Weave Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. It is so cool looking and adds so much dimension to any project. Do you remember what “Dynamic” means when we’re talking about our TIEF’s? It means that you can spritz your card stock with a little water and then run it through your Big Shot and it will give you a really deep and “Dynamic” impression. It really does add lot of texture and personality to your project. Earn your free Basket Weave Dynamic TIEF today!

Submit your work using our Sale-a-Bration products and I’ll post them in the Sale-a-Bration section of my website under Customer Creations. I hope you’re all having fun with these great products, and don’t forget to tell everyone!
