June 2018 Blogging Friend Blog Hop Rooted in Nature

Welcome to the "Blogging Friends" Blog Hop!

Who are the "Blogging Friends?"

We are a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators located all across the U.S. and Canada who have never met.  But, through our common bond of Stampin’ Up! and a shared love of paper-crafting we have created a fun blog hop. Please join us on the 1st of every month to see what wonderful things we have created for you!

I fell in love with the Rooted in Nature bundle as soon as I saw it.  I love the stamps, framelits, and the Nature's Poem designer series paper.  Rooted in Nature was my ideal choice for a Father's Day card and our new Itty Bitty Greetings made it easy.  This card emphasizes the Soft Suede in the tree.  The complementary colors really pop against the Soft Suede card base.

You can see the Linen Thread behind the Itty Bitty Father's Day sentiment.  It adds subtle texture and anchors the sentiment and the tree as the focal point.

I tried shifting the layout and placing it on the Grapefruit Grove card stock.  The tree now pops as the focal point with the brighter card base.

I think you will love creating projects with these new products!  And you can order them starting today at noon MST.  My project supplies are detailed at the end of this post.

Team Swap Monday - Peaceful Reflections

Hello stampers and welcome back to our Team Swap Monday series!   My stamping teammates and I create designs from our new 2018-2019 Annual catalog, we swap our cards, and then I love to share the designs with you each Monday. 

Today's card is featuring Peaceful Reflections and is designed by me. Our first team swap was a challenge for each of us to use our Prize Patrol stamp set we won at OnStage. I won Peaceful Reflections at the Las Vegas OnStage.

The back side of the flower stamp can be used as a reflection image on the water.  I also really like the circular ripples image.  It creates a truly peaceful effect for an everyday card and/or a sympathy card.  Our Nature's Poem designer series paper had a gorgeous print that looked like a rippling, watercolored pond.  The sentiment came from our Rooted in Nature stamp set.  These products can be ordered from me or will be available in the online store on June 1st.  So add them to your wishlist!

Please contact your demonstrator with any questions.  If you don't have a demonstrator, then I am happy to help you get started with an order and be your demonstrator.  My online store is open 24 hours at http://bit.ly/shopwithJaney

Hello Stampers!  I am so excited to share with you today!!!  My new products have arrived.  When a demonstrator attends OnStage for the catalog release we qualify to order from a small selection of new products.  It is really like Christmas arrived in a box, to open all the fun new colors, stamps, designer series papers - WOW I love being a demonstrator!

This is many items in our "Share What You Love" suite.  This is a pre-release in May available to customers.

Our "Nature's Poem" suite is gorgeous!
