Stampin' Scouts: Holiday Bingo!

Here's the first of many samples from my Stampin' Scouts Class offerings for Fall/Winter! I am super excited about this class...because it's going to be as fun for me as it is for the girls! 

If you haven't seen it already, Stampin' Up! has thing crazy adorable Bingo Card background stamp (it's the size of a card front) and then two companion sets that just make it perfect for the upcoming holidays...Spooky Bingo Bits & Jollly Bingo Bits 

Here is the class sample for the Halloween Bingo Class (I'm currently scheduling classes in September & October).  There will also be a Christmas Bingo version as well.  The girls will be doing all the stamping and  creating for their Bingo fun...they'll stamp their Bingo card, then add all the little ghosts, pumpkins, haunted houses and more to their card. Then it's on to the Bingo markers--stamped with a spidery web, of course!! Once all the cards and markers are complete...then it's time to play a couple games with their new crafty creations!  And you're troop can keep playing even after I'm gone, because I will leave you with the calling chips as well so you can play year after year!

Now, if you're thinking to yourself,  "I'm not sure my girls are old enough/crafty enough to make those"....THINK AGAIN!  I put all my classes through my own personal "Test Kitchen". For this project, my class testers are Elizabeth (3) and Allison (8).

 If Lizzy can stamp all those little spider webs on those markers...so can your Daisy's & Brownies!

Look how proud she is!

We also played a few games of Bingo to make sure we were uping the "fun factor" for the class...

Here's my eight year old (and camera shy 2nd year Brownie) playing along with her sister. When I asked her if we should add this to our Troop's Halloween Party this year, her response was "Definitely!" 

There you have it...tested and recommended for your Girl Scout Troops!  This class will take about an hour or so (depending how many girls you have, etc) so think of it as a great addition to your Halloween and Christmas Parties this year! 

The cost of the Holiday Bingo Class is a flat fee of $25.00 plus $3.00 per girl. A minimum 2 weeks notice is required. You can find out all the details about registering for a Stampin' Scouts Class by clicking HERE.

To register your troop, you can contact me at 716.604.4998 or raeannskerrett@hotmail.com

...And look for more Stampin' Scouts samples coming all week!

Wanna Flirt-Day 3, 4 & 5

Okay, so I'm behind in my posts! But, you probably noticed that already.

I had a very fun Stamp & Chat this past Friday which put me behind with all the prep, plus a FANTASTIC marketing opportunity that has now made me look at upgrading my website and adding some GREAT new things! Exhausting..but WOO HOO! 

However, I DO want to finish sharing with you all the fun and flirty-ness of the Flirtatious Suite! So, let's get to it before I get sidetracked again!!

Today, I want to show you the VERSATILITY of the set.

Here are some cards, all using the same Flirtatious Suite Papers & Accessories...but all with a different look and feel!

Let's start off with the colors you would expect from the line...Mambo Melon, Pumpkin Pie, Pretty in Pink, Wisteria Wonder and Whisper White...

(All Cards Designed by Kris Huels)

This card just makes me happy...love the colors!

Remember, you get two sheets of this FABULOUS laser cut double sided doily design paper in the Specialty Designer Series Paper. What a great focal point!  

I LOVE this one...when you're looking to add "something different" to your card designs, pull out the First Edition Specialty Paper!! I personally love the look with the Delicate Doily Stamp Set!

Now, lets change up the colors and see what happens...

How about stamping with Whisper White Craft Ink and then coloring it in with Stampin' Write Markers? I think using the Whisper White and the hues of blue really bring out with "wintry" side of this set...do you see snowflakes? I do!

Check this out! By just using one of those cut-out doily's and some Pocketful of Posies DSP...you get a whole new look! 

How about adding a completely different stamp set...like Simply Soft Hostess Set!

I hope I gave you some great ideas and some inspiration on how to use the Flirtatious Suite in a bunch of different card designs!  Now, let's chat about Scrapping for a second, shall we?

As you know, I am VERY excited about adding "Scrap & Chat" to our monthly "Stamp & Chat" event that I hold the second Friday of every month. You can get all the details HERE.

Well, in celebration of the Flirtatious Suite product line and the launch of Scrap & Chat in September....I am very happy to share with you two of the three scrap book pages you can create!!

Page 1

Page 2

Everything I love about the line is here...the colors, the punches, the ribbon!  I hope you join me in creating this double page layout for your 12 X 12 scrapbook...or just frame them individually and give them as gifts this holiday season!  There is still one more page to show you that we'll be creating at Scrap & Chat...that sneak peak will be coming soon!

Thanks for allowing me the pleasure of flirting with you all week! We'll be switching gears this coming week as I have a BUNCH of class samples to share with you from my Girl Scout Stampin' Scout Classes.  I was a VERY busy girl last school year meeting lots of different troop leaders and some really great girls! I look forward to doing it all over again...

Have a great weekend everyone!

Wanna Flirt-Day 3

Have you ever been too tired to Flirt?

I think I am at that point this evening!  Unfortunately for me, I have a one year old whose digestive system is still getting used to solid food AND he's cutting one of his top teeth. So, not too much sleep was had last night...and no nap time for him today. Which makes for a very tired Stamp-at-home Mommy...

However, I promised you some flirting tonight...and I keep my promises! :)

Here is a picture from one of the displays at Convention that I KNOW you will love...all decorated and filled with our Flirtatious Suite of products...

Click on the picture to see it up a little closer. Did you notice that the lampshade is made out of the Flirtatious DSP?  And check out the drawer...it's all filled with the Flirtatious Designer Series Fabric! What else do you see in there?? I keep finding new things each time I look at it...

Speaking of fabric, check out this Convention display...

I love the new Designer Series Fabrics...you can use them on cards, sewing projects, quilting (it works with the dies and the Big Shot!)...Just so many opportunities to make pretty things!

 Tomorrow I am excited to show you some Scrapbook Pages using the Flirtatious Suite. Why am I so excited?? Because they are the first two pages that we will be creating during my new SCRAP & CHAT starting in September (same time, same place as Stamp & Chat!)

If you've "friended" my

Stamping with RaeAnn fan page

on Facebook...you already had a sneak peak of one page...but tomorrow I will show you the second page of the layout...plus another bonus page.

So, It's just a little flirting tonight...don't take it the wrong way...I'm still into you!! ;)

Sweet Dreams, my friends...and I will try to do the same!

Wanna Flirt? Day 2

Today on my daily mission to "flirt" with you, I have two easy breezy cards that would be quick to make...but you'd be thrilled to give!

Card created by Kris Huels

This card is simply using the Wisteria Wonder Cardstock, Whisper White Cardstock, some Flirtatious Specialty DSP, a couple of punches and a Designer Printed Brad.

Bing, Bang, Boom...you're done!

What is GREAT about the Flirtatious Specialty DSP  is that you get two sheets of doily laser cut paper! Pretty much it's a bunch of doily's connected together on two 12 X 12 sheets! One is Pumpkin Pie and the other is Melon Mambo...but on the back..WHITE!  So, all you have to do is cut out one of those laser cut doily's and you get super sweet cards like these!

Now, change up the colors, snip yourself out another doily shape and this is what you can make...

Card created by Kris Huels

Notice that the Designer Printed Brad was exchanged for a Designer Button with some White Bakers Twine, a different Doily was chosen and only one small circle punch was used.  Same design....two different looks!

Tomorrow, I promise you won't be disappointed!  I have a couple great inspirations (i.e. AMAZING displays) from Convention that show you some more fun and fantastic things in the Flirtatious Suite!

And, in case you didn't hear...NOW is the perfect time to purchase the Flirtatious DSP (and any other DSP for that matter!) because the BUY 3, GET ONE FREE SALE is on NOW!

Happy Stampin' Everyone!

Wanna Flirt?

One of new product lines in the Idea Book & Catalog is the Flirtatious Suite.  While I was at our team Stamp Fest (which was AMAZING!) we looked more closely at this line and all that there is to offer. So, all week, I am going to share some pictures from Convention as well as some samples from Stamp Fest to show you what a fun, cherry and VERSATILE line this is!!

Let's start with what's included in the suite...

Specialty Designer Series Paper, Bitty Buttons, Lace Ribbon Border Punch, 1/2" Scallop Dots Ribbon (in Pretty in Pink!) and the Flirtatious Designer Fabric

And, here's a little closer up on some of the products...

Check out that fun fabric and the AWESOME punches that coordinate with this set!  I am in love with the Delicate Doilies Stamp Set (I tend to use them ALOT when planning my Stamp & Chat classes!) and the larger single stamp, Hello, Doily.  But the one thing we are missing that just makes this suite SO AWESOME...the Designer Series Paper...

How's that for a paper display?? 

This was taken at Convention...don't you just want to pick all these beautiful flowers?!

Here is a card (created by fellow sideline, Kris Huels) that showcases these papers perfectly...

Notice how the doily was stamped in Whisper White Craft Ink over the Wisteria Wonder Cardstock before it attached to the card. Another element I love....the Lace Ribbon Border Punch! My new favorite and "go to" for adding that special touch to cards! If you're joining me for August Stamp & Chat, you'll get to play with this punch!

That is just a little taste of what I'll be sharing with you all this week! SO, get FLIRTY and follow me to see what else YOU can create with the Stampin' Up! Flirtatious Product Suite!

Convention Make & Take Pennant

So, while I was getting ready for my big Retired Stamp Set BOGO event, I wanted to display one of the Make & Take projects from Convention....Oh, how I love this!!  There is a matching card box that goes with it....that will be on my TO DO list the next time I get some quiet time away from the kids!

Here is the AWESOME pennant that we got all the supplies & directions for!

Can you see the pinwheel made from the Timeless Portrait paper (on the left?). I also love how the cards can hang off the hemp twine....I am definitely going to use this idea to display cards moving forward!. What I REALLY like is this whole pennant matches the colors in my dining room (I have it hanging on my hutch) It just might stay there for awhile so I can gaze at it everyday!

Speaking of my BOGO event, want to see the craziness that is my Dining Room today??

...and that's only part of it!

Yep, the kids ate in the playroom tonight!!

If you're in the area....the second half of my sale is doing on right now until 8:00pm this evening! Grab some great, Retired stamp sets and then use that amount towards some NEW stuff....WOO HOO!!

Well, I'm Off to do some BOGO-ing!

Join the FUN!

Do you love stamping?

Do you want to attend MORE stamping events?

Would you like to receive event kits in the mail if you can't attend?

Do you want to make new friends in the Stamping Community?

Would you like to get a discount on Stampin' Up! products ALL the time?

Would you like to receive a monthly magazine FILLED with ideas and inspiration? Have access to exclusive websites?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above -- read on! There's something exciting for YOU!!

The Heartfelt Stampers & Me

I am part of a fabulous team named “The Heartfelt Stampers”.  Being a part of a large group of inspired, creative and wonderful women is a great place to be!  Whether you just want to talk about a new project you’re working on or exchanging business building ideas…you’ll be sure to find someone who shares your passion and interests!

I am also always there for you! I chose to be a Full Time Stamp-at-Home Mom…for me, the best choice for my kids AND for me!  I look forward to our group meetings and events, not only for the stamping opportunities but for the friendships and adult conversation that comes with it!  I started out as a “hobby demonstrator” a few years ago and joined Stampin’ Up! for the hugely discounted starter kit and for the VAST amount of inspiration and project ideas that Stampin’ Up! and it’s community offers.  Being “just a hobby demonstrator” is WONDERFUL! But, I can tell you, if you are looking for “more” that can be yours too! Join me in trying to earn the Stampin’ Up! incentive trip to Fiji in 2013!!

But, whatever your goals are,  I would love to have YOU give our group a try. There's NO commitment. NO obligation. Only opportunities should you choose to partake!

And right now there is so much going on to "sweeten" the deal.... Read on to learn more about it!

Stamp Fests

3 times a year we have a "Stamp Fest" where we get together and stamp the day away! Our next Stamp Fest is coming up on August 6th - next Saturday!!!

Since we just returned from Stampin' Up!'s Convention, we will be using this Stamp Fest to bring Convention back to everyone who couldn’t attend! We'll have several classes throughout the day showcasing some of the fabulous projects taught there. In addition, there's Prize Patrol Giveaways, Product Demonstrations and More!

If you live local - I hope that you'll join the Team so that you can attend either this event, or another similar one in the future! If you love long distance - then you're able to participate in ALL of these events by mail so that you don't have to miss a thing!!!!! Long Distance kits include all of the supplies and a DVD of the presentations.

Discounted Stamp & Chat

All Team Members are able to attend my monthly Stamp & Chat at a $5 discount! That means that you can come and create 6 cards each month for ONLY $10.00.

This is a great way to help you build your samples and learn more about stamping and products.

If you live too far away to attend in person, long distance "on the go" kits are available for this as well, at the same discounted price!

Stamping Retreat Weekends

One of the BIGGEST highlights of being a Heartfelt Stamper is the ability to join us for our Annual Stamping Retreat Weekends that take place every October!

This 3 day retreat is an opportunity for Team Members near and far to join together. We have girls driving hours to get there, and some flying in to join us! It's WORTH it!!!! The weekend is so affordable - it varies, but is right around $140 for all of your classes for the weekend AND lodging!!! Which makes it easier for our long distance girls to be able to swing it and join us, plane ticket and all.

We are finalizing our Registration for the retreat over the next couple of weeks - which means that there's time for YOU to join us and join in on the retreat fun!

The retreat will take place October 7th - 9th.

 $99 Kit Starter Kit Special

To join our Team, it is normally $175 - but you get SO MUCH for your money.... over $380 worth of product!!!

That option is always available, but right now, there is a special, smaller kit available for just $99!

That means that for just $99 (which you're spending on PRODUCT of YOUR choice, it's NOT just a joining fee) you can be a part of it all! 

FREE Christmas Keepsake Kit!

AND -- if you join by the end of July, you get this BEAUTIFUL Christmas Keepsake Kit for FREE!!!! The photos just don't do it justice. I had the opportunity to see it in "real life" at Convention and it is BIGGER and BETTER than I thought.... it's simply stunning!

It was designed by Shelli Gardner herself, and is a $40 value including a NEW STAMP SET from the NEW HOLIDAY MINI and everything else you need!

FREE Ribbon or Fabric Share!

And as if THAT wasn't enough, I'm personally offering that in addition to the normal Welcome Folder and hand stamped welcome card and hand stamped welcome gift that I give each of my new Team Members, I will ALSO give you a FREE Ribbon or Fabric Share for joining by the end of July!!!

What do you have to lose?

Ask yourself! You don't owe me or the company anything for giving it a try. The WORST case scenario is that you decide it isn't for you and quietly slip off the Demonstrator List. Meanwhile, you've gotten some great products at a great price and enjoyed some fabulous perks. So REALLY.... what do you have to lose?

Click HERE to see more details about the $99 kit -- but remember that the kit is FULLY customizable, so even what is listed can be changed for anything of equal or lesser value!

For More Information

Call me at 716.568.4362 or  e-mail me at raeannskerrett@hotmail.com.  You can also sign up online by going HERE. Remember, to take advantage of all the great “extras” listed above, you need to purchase your starter kit by July 31^st.

I hope that you can join in on the fun!

Convention Fun with Fabric

(Tired about hearing about the Stampin' Up! Convention yet?? I hope not...because I have SO much more to share with you! If I haven't said it enough...you just HAVE to go to Convention 2012 if you get a chance!!)

I don't know about you, but I am in LOVE with the Designer Fabric that Stampin' Up! came out with. I love the patterns, I love the assortment...and I love the project ideas that we got to see at Convention...

Everything from a simple apron (notice the NEW fabric??)

....to a super cute marker holder! I am SO making this for my kids. Simple...and you only need to sew straight lines (something I can actually do!)

Not sure how well you can see this one...but it's a message board using the Timeless Portrait fabric. LOOOOVVVEEE IT!

What I also enjoyed was that besides TONS of card samples (those I will be sharing some of too..don't worry!) There were so GREAT fabric project displays...

This picture uses the Springtime Vintage fabric

(Click the pictures to enlarge).

There is a sweet and oh-so-pretty grouping of items using the Beau Chateau line

(NEW Fabric Alert!!)

This one is called Spice Cake that will be available in the upcoming Holiday Mini Catalog

(NEW fabric alert!!)

How about Holly Berry Bouquet?

If you haven't had a chance to discover the Designer Fabric that Stampin' Up! offers, check out page 196 in your 2011-2012 Idea Book & Catalog.  You can see all the yummy designs and fabulous colors that are available.  Remember, your fabric WORKS WITH YOUR BIG SHOT...so you can use the dies to quilt, add fabric embellishments to your scrapbooks and cards...and SO MUCH MORE.  If you have any questions about the fabric or any of the project you've seen here, feel free to contact me!

+One

Now, Stampin' Up!'s theme for this year is "+One"...They are challenging us to  kick everything up a notch and do one more workshop....or create one more fabulous project with our customers.  So, in the spirit of +One I am going to share one more picture from Convention with you. 

As Demonstrators we were able to sign up for a special +Fun class one of the evenings.  I chose the "Village of Cuteness" class. I read the description and KNEW it had my name written all over it!! Here's what we made....

How adorable is this??

We painted blocks of precut wood and adorned them with all the delicious papers (including the WOOD SHEETS) and other fun embellishments to create our village.  My plans are to decorate my little village up for the holidays with some of the new Mica Flakes and Jingle Bells that are coming soon...wait, did I just let some new product announcements spill out???

Oops.

I have SO much more to share with you....please keep coming back to see!

You WON'T be disappointed..

Convention Eye Candy

I've learned since being at the Stampin' Up! Convention for the first time last week, that when you see this sign (above) you are going to have your senses taken away from you!  The creativity and inspiration is beyond amazing.  Today I thought you'd like to see some of the awe inspiring displays and vignettes that we got the privilege of looking at (and talking TONS of pictures of!)

This was hanging over the center of the vignette display area.  That, my friends, is ALOT of gorgeous, yummy ribbon!! What I love about it...how it's hung from a simple branch. LOVE it!

Each little area highlighted a specific product suite. Watch out for the NEW product suites along the way! Here is the Paisley Petals area.

Pretty, Pretty, Pretty!! Here is the Flirtatious product suite. 

How cute are they paper flowers made from DSP (Designer Series Paper)

"Just Add Cake" suite...LOVE the banner!  Made with our NEW Pennat Die!

"Well Worn"....

Check out these boots!!!

Okay, "Berry Blossoms" is probably one of my favorite product suites in the new catalog.  Check how how insanely CUTE this is...

...little paper strawberries!!

Doesn't this make you get excited about making Valentine Cards??

I am SO finding a little lantern like this and copying this idea!!

This is the vignette from the "Domestic Goddess" product suite.SO cute, fresh and fun!

...And who doesn't like a good baby display? The "Nursery Nest" suite is just perfect for this display!

 I'm going to end my little Show & Tell today with a Product Suite that I honestly didn't love before I left for Convention....and came home in LOVE with!! (See, that's how they getcha'!)

 

This super cute bird was made out of the "Timeless Portrait" DSP.  We actually got to play with the fabric during our Make & Take Projects (Just WAIT) until you see them!!  

Another small vignette using Timeless Portrait.

So, have I inspired you enough for today?? I have a bunch more pictures to share that feature fabrics, card idea and the +FUN class I took...."Village of Cuteness".

I hope you'll join me again tomorrow!

Post Convention BOGO Stamp Sale Event!!

Who Doesn't LOVE a BOGO!?!

(Especially a Stampin' Up! one)

I just got back from the Stampin' Up! Convention and since they were SO generous in giving all of us Demonstrators LOTS of FREE STUFF...I thought I should do the same for YOU!!!

As you may know, the new Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog was released on July 1st. As a way to clean out my old (and retired) stamp sets and make way for the AMAZING NEW ITEMS that are coming out....I am offering YOU a FABULOUS DEAL!!

It's a BOGO Event that you will NOT want to miss!!

Purchase any of my Retired stamp sets (at full price)....and you will receive that amount BACK IN NEW CATALOG MERCHANDISE!! You will be getting DOUBLE the product for your money!! And you don't have to choose between old and new.....you get BOTH!!

Don't want to spend full price on retired product? OK! Pay full price for the NEW products and get the retired products for FREE! It's really the same thing, it just depends on how you look at it!

My list of retired stamp sets is listed below.  Feel free to email or call with your your orders OR I will also be having a...

BOGO Clearance Open House

Tuesday, July 26th  11:00am-1:00pm or 6:30-8:00pm

If you live local and want to see some of the things in person, you can come to my Open House that day or make an appointment for a time that works better for you. You can also feel free to shoot me an email with what sets you want or give me a call so I can put it aside for you!

BOGO Info...

Just a few bits of housekeeping before you dive in…
