Convention is one of the highlights of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. Here's a commercial Stampin' Up! put together advertising Convention 2012 and where our upcoming leadership and training events will be held.. Some might think it's a commercial about being in an unhappy marriage, NOT! I think it's hysterical.
Let me know what you think?
Hello, Lakeside Stamper Readers!
Here's a post which features my Ten Favorite New Stampin' Up! Products. It was hard narrowing them down to ten. I worry every year that Stampin' Up! can't possible out do the year before. Well, I don't know about you, but Stampin' Up! has always delivered. This new Idea Book and Catalog is not exception. See if you don't agree?
1.) 2011-13 Stampin' Up! In-Colors #123002________________
Have you ever created a beautiful project, only to get frustrated when you couldn’t find a coordinating marker? With Stampin’ Up!’s exclusive coordinating color collections, that will never happen again. And now Stampin' Write Markers are available in our In Color collection!
Years ago Stampin' Up! never had In-Color Markers available.I guess enough of us asked for them and as a result the markers are a big new treat every year.

■ Odorless, water-based dye ink
■ Coordinates with Classic Stampin’ Pads and exclusive Stampin’ Up! card stock
■ Finger grips on cap aid in easy cap removal ■ Set of 5 markers: Calypso Coral, Island Indigo, Lucky Limeade, Pool Party, Wisteria Wonder
2.) Big Top Designer Series Paper #122348___________________
Stampin' Up! Designer Series papers are absolutely beautiful and use their palette of colors and original images. Designer Series paper makes it easy to create a card or scrapbook page with coordinating background paper, card stock, and stamped images. It also covers On Board chipboard beautifully.
I love the "Big Top" Suite of stamps and Designer Series Paper.

We’re buddies, aren’t we? Images in the Button Buddies Set pair well with Stampin' Up! Designer Buttons to give all your projects a one-of-a-kind style. Whether it’s a pink nose on a pink pig, or an orange shell of a slow moving snail, adding a button will add dimension.
6.) Stampin' Embossing Powder in two new great Colors page 201__

10.) Lace Ribbon Border Punch # 122362_____________________
Use this punch for any project that calls for a bit of lace and a vintage touch! Or cut out the flower design and use it separately as a charming and delicate accent. Remember, with their sleek, space-saving design and larger size for more leverage, our punches are better than ever!

Hi there, Stampers and Paper-Artists!
I had a great weekend and hope you had the same.
On Friday I held a Springtime Class and the projects came out wonderful I'll share them with you later in the week.
On Easter Sunday John and I spent a very nice day cleaning out some of the gardens and picking up all the debris that winter left behind. Since Earth Day was Friday, taking care of the small part of the earth we call home is important to us.
. I also started to cut couch cushions for my daughter Meg. We bought the fabric almost two years ago and I just haven't had the time to cut and sew them. I'm taking this week to get caught up on some chores which really need to be done at home here. I will be posting this week and working on my newsletter, I just won't be stamping. It's high time I clean out my stamp room and weeded through all the drawers. I like to do this once a year before the new Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalog arrives. I can't wait for the new catalog to re-fill what I just cleaned out!
Speaking of catalogs, this post is to remind you that the Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini Catalog dead line is April 30. If there's anything you want from this catalog now is the time to place your order. Once the catalog is retired so are all the products in it. Sometimes there's a cary-over in the Big Idea Book and Catalog, but the majority of products will no longer be available.
If you would like to place an order you can do so by clicking on my sidebar button.
I promise to take pictures of my daughter's couch and share those with you. ADon't forget to sign up for my newsletter. I promise you won't be disappointed with May's issue.
Hoping you're enjoying great weather as we are in the East.
Stampin' Hugs,
Hello, Stampers and Paper Artists!
On Saturday, March 19, I'm having a Stamp-A-Stack Saturday. For those of you who live locally and are attending here's a sneak peek at some of the cards we'll be making. If you don't live in the Westchester/Putnam County, NY area I'll post all of the card projects on this blog beginning on Monday, March 21, the first day of Spring! I didn't think Spring would ever get here! So, things are looking up as my tulip, daffodils and hyacinths are emerging miraculously in my gardens.
Enjoy the warmer & longer days and thanks for stopping by!
Stampin' Hugs,
Hello, to my Lakeside Stamper Stamping Friends!
Here is some new information about My Digital Studio offered from Stampin' Up!
Stampin' Up! has just released the pdf catalog of My Digital Studio!
It includes all of the MDS software artwork (contained in the boxed-version) and downloads from the October 2009 launch through January 2011!
The catalog gives a snapshot of the entire product line with artwork thumbnails followed by product details. Because MDS is regularly coming out with new artwork, the catalog will be updated every month and available to you on MyDigitalStudio.net on the main home page.
Good Morning Lakeside Stamper Readers!
This is to remind you if you haven't received the Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini and Sale-A-Bration Catalogs email me and I'll get one in the mail to you.
If you are in the Yorktown NY area and would like to attend my classes ask for my class schedule. My next class is on Friday, January 28 at 7:30. We're covering some card techniques and making two Valentine's Day projects.
Happy New Year Lakeside Readers!
I certainly hope you all had a wonderful Holiday and rang in 2011 in style. I know we did here. All of us battled and still are battling some wicked stomach bug/flu. I'm still not right. My mom is in the hospital becasue of it due to total dehydration. Say a little prayer for her if you would.
A few reminders before I jump into the projects I've been working on. I'll start posting them towards the end of the week. Today, January 3 is the last day you can order from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini catalog. If there's anything you want make sure to order it today. I know I want some more of those nice designer house on page 87 (#120911). I made one up and I LOVE it! Look for it in a future post. So, look through the book carefully and place an order by clicking the Order Stampin' Up! On-line Button.
I also would like to remind you if you haven't signed up for my Newsletter you really should. January's Lakeside Stamper Newsletter was sent, but if you sign up I'll make sure you get sent a copy of it. It's filled with some nice projects for Scrap-booking, Valentine's Day Project, a Technique for Faux Cloisonne and a great Q & A section. In fact if you have any questions just post them in the comment section below each post and I'll try to answer it in one of mt newsletters. The projects offered in my newsletter are exclusive for newsletter subscibers. Don't miss out or wait a minute longer to sign up.

As I close I want to thank all of you who are loyal readers, stampers, paper-crafters, scrap-bookers and friends. The friendships I have made through my stamping journey means more to me then any other aspect of this business. I look forward to 2011 and sharing with you all of my new inspirations.
The best of everything, especially health in 2011 and remember ladies it's a leap year!
Satmpin' Hugs,
Hello there Lakeside Readers!
I just want to mention that I'm adding a drop down menu for my categories. The category list on my sidebar was getting waaaay too looooong! So. if by chance you go to the drop down menu and it's not complete that's the reason. My blog posts aren't affected it's just the category pages I'm setting up. Also. you'll notice a new navigation bar under my banner, which I'm also working on.
I just want to let you all know.
