So today was stamp club and it was very fun, as usual. I love seeing everyone and catching up with them. Here are some of the projects that we made today:
Sorry the pictures are not very good, my camera and I are not getting along well lately. Anyhow, the first one is a quick and easy card using Always Artichoke, Mellow Moss and Whisper White card stock. It also uses Lovely as a Tree and Many Merry Messages. We stamped in Artichoke ink and then added the white using white craft ink and an Aqua Painter.
The next one is stamped with the Autumn Splendor stamp set (new favorite) and shimmer paint mixed with a reinker. We then embossed it with clear embossing powder. We used soft suede and dusty durango card stock.
If you are interested in one of the stamp clubs, here are the details:
We meet on the second Thursday of the month at either 9:30 am OR 6:30 pm. Each month we make three projects, including a new technique. Each person puts in a $20 order each month and then we all take turns getting the hostess benefits. We meet for 6 - 8 months (depending on the number of participants). It is a very fun time and I have openings in both groups. Please contact me at stampinsupplies@yahoo.com or 810-694-5409 for more details.
Hope you all have a great evening!

Cool Halloween Cards
Good Morning All! I just wanted to show you a few really cool Halloween cards from my trip. This one is by Jane Wike. This uses the Pumpkin Patch stamp set out of the Holiday mini catalog. I love the look with the Scallop Square sizzix die.
The next one is by Tami White. She used the bleaching technique for the background and the body of the spider is a half back pearl (from the Pretties Kit) embossed with black embossing powder. Isn't this cool!!!
I will post more Halloween cards later.

Amazing Trip!!
I'm not even sure how to begin to describe my amazing trip to Utah this past week. Stampin' Up really knows how to treat their demonstrators! This is me at the factory in Kanab. I got to watch them make the stamps we stamp with!
Seriously....I definitely gained five pounds. How can you not with all this candy.
As many times as I've talked to Shelli, I have never gotten my picture taken with her. So this was really fun. She is truly a wonderful and amazing woman.
So on our last amazing night in St. George they put up all of these boards for us showing the stamp sets from our upcoming Occasions Mini Catalog! As if this weren't exciting enough....we got to pick any one we wanted to take home!!!! I was in shock because this is super top secret. Of course, I am sworn to secrecy, but that is half of the fun. Oh, I am going to work hard to make the next Founder's Circle trip!!!

Well, Ian's hockey tournament finally came to an end yesterday afternoon in Melvindale (yeah, I didn't know where that was until yesterday either). I am so excited to say that they won EVERY GAME and of course the finals in their category. Ian was grinning from ear to ear. That's him in the yellow goalie pads in front. What a great ending to a very tiring weekend.

Whirlwind Week!
So, I was doing so good with my posts last week....and then school started. I thought this would free me up a little, but goodness have I been crazy busy this week!! Amelia also started ballet class on Wednesday and Luc starts hockey tomorrow. Not to mention that Ian, has a hockey tournament this weekend. I guess this is why I am a Stampin' Up demonstrator instead of a 9 to 5er.
The first picture is from my last card class. It uses the Elegant Bouquet embossing folder for the Big Shot. It also uses Almost Amethyst and Basic Gray card stock. I used the white gel pen on the center of the flowers.
The next card was from my Christmas Card club last month. We meet on the third Tuesday of the month. I still have a few openings in the evening session and lots of openings for the 1:00 session if you are interested.
Have a great day!

Mosquito Drama
Good Morning Ladies!
I wanted to share a few cards I've made recently. The first one is from the new "Beary Best Friends" stamp set. I also used the Pawsitively Prints designer series paper. I love this product line, and as I've mentioned before, my kids love it too.
The other card was copied from a swap I received at convention. The card base is pumpkin pie and then the flower is also die cut, using the flower Daisies #2 die, with pumpkin pie card stock. The ribbon is Rose Red double stitched grosgrain and the center of the flower is a white 5/8' jumbo brad. The sentiment uses the Thank You Kindly stamp set with Rose Red ink.
I hope you enjoy it. We are off again today trying to avoid the gorgeous outside. My kids are so bitten up by the mosquitoes that I have been trying to do indoor activities. I probably won't be able to stand it again today and will just load them up with bug spray and send them out. Hopefully they won't think Luc has chicken pox on his first day of school :)
Have a great day!

Last Night's Open House
Here are the cards that we made at the Holiday Mini Catalog open house last night. I think my kids had more fun than anyone else making the Build-a-bear cards. I'm so excited about the new mini catalog. There are some really awesome new products and product lines in the catalog. And we just found out that My Digital Studio (our new digital scrapbooking software) will be available on October 1st! I was a little skeptical about digital scrapbooking myself, but I am in love with this software after seeing it at convention. There is so much that you can do with it.
Only a few more days left until the kids start school (well, Luc at least). I am looking forward to seeing my big boy go to kindergarten. I still can't believe he is going to be at school all day. This will be a HUGE change in our lives. He is also starting hockey on the 12th and Amelia is starting dance on the 9th. Add this to my older son, Ian's travel hockey schedule and I think I am going to be a zombie this year. Like we weren't busy enough already!! Wish me luck!

Founder's Circle
This year I was invited on Stampin' Up's Founder's Circle trip. This is an awesome trip and a great honor. I will get to spend time with all of the top demonstrators in the company....which means I will be getting some great ideas to share with you!!
Anyhow, we have to make 120 swap cards if we want to participate in the swap (which I do, of course). Here is the card that I made. The technique is called the Magic Snowflake technique. For this technique you simply emboss a snowflake (I used "Serene Snowflakes" from the holiday mini) with white embossing powder on glossy card stock. Then, you dab a cotton ball in rubbing alchohol and add two drops of reinker from two different colors. I used Night of Navy and Brocade Blue. Then you dab the cotton ball all over the glossy card stock. You then take your heat tool and run it over the glossy again. This makes the snowflake reappear. It is so cool and no two cards are alike. I hope you enjoy this sample!

School Days
Here are my scrapbook pages for this month. They use the new "Write Stuff" specialty paper. I am going to put pictures in them after my little boy goes off to kindergarten next week. I cannot believe that he is already going to school!!! It makes me kind of sad and I am sure that Amelia will be lonely since her big brother will be gone all day long.
Hope you enjoy the pages!

Starter Kit Questions and Answers!
When I decided to become a Stampin’Up demonstrator, I was just FULL of questions. Maybe you are, too. Here are some of the questions I asked as I considered my options:
Q: What are the benefits if I join Stampin’Up?
A: The benefits are many and vary from one demonstrator to the next. Some of the tangible benefits include:
* You can join Stampin'Up in May and get the $75 scrapbook based starter kit or get the regular starter kit! Check out the contents on page 14 of your Spring/Summer 2009 Idea Book and Catalog. Of course, Stampin’Up allows you to select many substitutions in order to meet your stamping needs.
* You’ll get 30% off your first order of $150 or more placed within 45 days of signing up
* You'll get 20% off all future orders of Stampin’Up products. You can earn additional income (called a Volume Rebate) when your monthly sales are $300 or more. Your 20 % income (called instant income) combined with your volume rebate can reach up to 40% of your personal sales!
* You have the opportunity to pre-order select new and exciting SU products and accessories at least a month in advance of your customers! And often we get an even further discount on these items.
* Stampin’Up! Sends out a monthly magazine to all of its demonstrators called Stampin’Success. You will also have access to thousands of samples and ideas on the Stampin’Up! Demonstrator website. You will never have to worry about trying to come up with something all by yourself. Stampin’Up! makes it very easy for demonstrators who don’t have time to focus on originality!
* New friends and fun times attending Stampin’Up events like convention, regionals, and downline demonstrator meetings at my home quarterly. I can’t imagine my life without the friends I have made since becoming a demonstrator. That is truly a gift that I treasure dearly.
Q: Do I have to hold workshops?
A: There is no obligation to hold workshops or to even sell Stampin’Up! just because you’ve purchased a Starter Kit. It’s yours to enjoy any way you wish. Many demonstrators in Stampin’Up are hobbyists and enjoy selling to a few friends and getting their own products at cost.
Q: Are there “minimums?”
A: If you decide you want to remain an active demonstrator, a minimum of $300 in retail products sales per quarter is required. (Only $240 our cost!)
In addition to those questions, I considered the different types of demonstrators and tried to decide where I might fit in. Maybe you will see yourself in one of these scenarios!
I Just Want the Kit: This is a great option for new stampers who want lots of stamping supplies at a fabulous discount. You don’t have to feel guilty if you never do another thing with it – you know a bargain when you see one!!
Discount Purchaser: This is for the person who likes to get all of their supplies at cost. They may occasionally sell to interested friends and family.
Hobbyists: This person loves to share what she knows about stamping with others, but doesn’t necessarily go out of her way to do it. As long as she can fit Stampin’Up! into her life conveniently, she might work a lot some months and little or not at all other months.
Career Demonstrator: These are demonstrators who view Stampin’Up! as a viable business opportunity with long-term career potential. She works her business consistently, pursues management opportunities and strives to move up the career ladder.
Stampin’Up! has a lot of different options available to you as a demonstrator. Do you want more information? You can contact me by e-mail. Or, if you have been thinking about this for awhile and you are ready to get started now you can visit my website at www.melissaroberts.stampinup.net, click "Join now" and use my recruiter password which is flower.

Loved by Luc
Here is Luc with my wonderful Mother's Day picture he made. On the petals of the flower he told the teacher different things about Mom. Things like "My Mom is 15 years old" and "My Mom is 15 feet tall". How could you not love this!
The other pictures are my scrapbook pages for this month's scrapbook club. If you are interested in joining please let me know because I have some openings. We will be meeting on the fourth Tuesday of the month.
Okay, I don't know anyone who is moving right now. If I did though, they would be getting this card. I love this Neighborhood wheel.
Have a fabulous day and a wonderful and relaxing Mother's Day!!!!
