Fun With Candy


What isn't fun about candy, especially chocolate. I will show you some easy ways to dress up average goodies into beautiful gifts.

 Cold Play Card
This project turns a few Dove chocolates into an adorable present.

1,000th sample contest

I am coming up on the thousandth sample in my data base. I am on number 946, which kind of blows my mind! I thought it would be fun to include some samples made by you. Please send your card or 3-D project samples to me to be scanned and included on my website. The thousandth sample entered will receive a $19.95 stamp set of their choice. 
 
Here are the contest rules:
1. All samples must be made with ONLY current Stampin' Up! products. No exceptions!
2. No samples will be returned.
3. I reserve the right to exclude any samples, if I decide that they are not the quality I am looking for. Do your BEST stamping!
4. This contest is open to anyone receiving this newsletter. Feel free to forward it on to your stamping friends.
 
I will reserve a special page on the website for all of the entries to be displayed and will keep a tally of where we are in the goal of 1,000. Good Luck and Happy Stamping!
Dear Stamper,
 
I hope you had a wonderful summer and are enjoying all the excitement and craziness that goes along with back to school. Now that routines are being reestablished and (hopefully) you have more time to yourself during the school day, it is the perfect time to make a resolution to find more time for yourself. Maybe that means enjoying a good book, meeting a friend for coffee, catching up on some scrapbooking, or making a few cards. Whatever your simple pleasure is, whether stamping or something completely different, make sure to enjoy it.
