Hey Birthday Chick!

Leave a comment February 2, 2021 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

You may have noticed the Hey Birthday Chick stamp set in the Jan – June Mini (p. 52) and thought Gee that’s fun! You may have even thought it looked familiar – because it is. During Sale-a-bration 2017 a set called Hey Chick was the most popular stamp set, so Stampin’ Up! created this new birthday version. Even better, they are bringing back Hey Chick and they are offering coordinating dies to go with both sets!! These two bundles are only available from Feb 2^nd – June 30^th.

The advantage to ordering the bundles is that you save 10% and you can earn FREE sale-a-bration items with every $60 order.

I loved this stamp set the first time around – so I am THRILLED to have more pieces to play with. Here is the card I created today. We did a little bit of masking and used the amazing Blending Brushes.

To see more samples using these bundles – follow my facebook page – I’ll be posting cards daily this week.

The video below goes into some details about how I made the card – you may want to layer up the front piece – I got lucky and my Blends did not bleed into the inside of my card. Phew!

Darling Donkeys – Love You Always Treat Boxes

Leave a comment January 26, 2021 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

Valentine’s is approaching and it is always fun to package up the goodies we give in sweet wrapping. Today I am highlighting Stampin’ Up!’s no adhesive Love you Always Treat Boxes (154285 – $12.25cdn for 10 food safe boxes). You can decorate these boxes for any occasion really – this one I gave it a bit of a Valentine feel, but kept the sentiment neutral so it can be used any time of the year.

The size of these boxes is great too. I fit two cookies in this one. A twine combo pack and some chocolate would also fit nicely.

The base of this box is extra sturdy and fits together without adhesives at all. It is easy to assemble – but not exactly obvious how to do it. So the first part of my video below goes over how to assemble the Love You Always Treat Box.

110755 $5.50	104430 $5.50	144108 $5.50	138995 $9.50

You can earn the Darling Donkey set I used on this box for free with a qualifying purchase. For all the details about Sale-a-bration and the free products you can earn check out my website: https://www.stampinup.ca/categories/sales-specials/sale-a-bration?dbwsdemoid=2189587

Darling Donkeys – FMS469

3 Comments January 24, 2021 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

This week’s sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches (FMS469) was exactly what I needed to use up some paper scraps on my desk. I grabbed 3 different 4″ X 1/2″ strips, added some details by stamping and embossing them and voila, perfect background.

I love this little donkey – he is so fun and cute! It is also so nice that I got this stamp set for free – and you can too! Right now Sale-a-bration is happening, which means for every $60 or $120 you spend you can earn a free SAB item.

Product List

159229 $11.25	119793 $12.00	120953 $12.00	131197 $12.00	121045 $12.00
155264 $0.00	147083 $10.25	147096 $10.25	132708 $8.25	144601 $12.00

110755 $5.50	104430 $5.50

If you have a big wish list and would like to become a discount shopper, I recommend purchasing some of what’s on your wish list in the Sale-a-Bration Starter Kit. That’s how you’ll be able to get your hands on 200 sheets of this pretty monochromatic 6×6 patterned paper, too. (That paper is the free gift that is in the Sale-a-Bration Starter Kit available through the end of February. Click here for more details about Sale-a-Bration.)

Painted Poppies

Leave a comment November 3, 2020 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

This week I will be spending a lot of time chatting with my Grade 2/3 class about Remembrance Day, planting our own Poppies in our school garden and we will be creating our own Poppy art in class. So I thought I’d spend my Stampin’ week focussing on Stampin’ Up!’s gorgeous Painted Poppies set. Today’s card is created using the Painted Poppies stamp set and a lot of fussy cutting (there are dies available- I just wanted a closer cut).I also heat embossed and then dry embossed the background.

If you want to get your own supplies to create this card ( and many others – check out my FB page for more samples this week) you can simply click the product images below.

They are only available from now until June 2nd ( or until they sell out).

This is one set that will not be going out the door in my retired items sales, I love the stitching and fine details way to much to sell this one. Check my facebook page if you want to see other items created using this set.
