Merry Christmas & Sneak Peek ~Sweet Strawberry Bundle

Merry Christmas to each of you that come to my blog.  I appreciate your interest and support.   I have a sample below using the new Sweet Strawberry Bundle to share with you. 

What is your inspiration for your stamping projects? Last week my friend Penny Whittington stopped by to pick up her stamp order and she brought me some delicious fudge in this adorable cloth bag. When I saw the strawberries on front, I knew I had to pull out my new stamp set Sweet Strawberry plus new punch to coordinate. Sweet Strawberry Bundle #156214 $32.25

Below is the cloth bag with the fudge in it.  I love that she tied some of our ribbon around it for a festive touch. 

 

 

 

 I pulled out the colors that were in the bag to use for stamping. Night of Navy, Real Red, Garden Green, Very Vanilla

I added the small strawberry flowers and stamped those in Memento Black ink and colored in with the Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends Markers. The bottom strawberry I stamped on Very Vanilla card stock with Real Red ink and the top strawberry I stamped on Real Red card stock using Real Red ink. (to show the difference)

So what do you think?  I love how it came together.

I wanted to share a project with you that I made this past week from one of the Mosaic Gusseted Cellophane Bags.  A couple of weeks ago I was at an on line virtual class and we made some awesome projects.  The Mosaic Gusseted Cellopane Bags was a challenge from MaryKate Scott who was the host of the event.  She gave us these cello bags and challenged us to create something with them. This was my end project.  I think it is a sweet treat gift.  What do you think?

 

 

Below is the side view.

Do you ever shop for candy that matches your craft or treat project?  I took a sample of my Bumble Bee DSP to see if I could fine candy with a matching wrapper.  What do you think?  I think it was pretty close.

This was the rest of my stash from the $Tree. 

1- Bags to hold my Jingle Bell Retreat projects 

 2- Pens for some gifts I am going to give soon. 

3- Candy 

4- Perceptual Calendar to make it cute with Stampin' UP! products.                                        (I saw these from Melissa Davis I will send a photo when I finish                                         my sample.)  

                    Below are the bags I used.  They would make cute bags for almost any gift.

NC Demos August Blog Hop & Happy 21st (Stamp-aversary)

 

 

Welcome to the NC Demo Blog Hop for August.  

 

 

My name is Frances Wagner and I am from Vero Beach, FL but an original member of NC SU Demo group. I love doing this blog hop with my NC SU Demo friends, they are so talented.

If you are hopping along with us you just came from Jo Anne Hewins blog where I know you loved her project.  Our theme this month is "Scenic View!" projects.  I love the possibilities, I have used the Waterfront card before on my blog with a calendar easel card here but decided to step it up a bit. 

I used the Waterfront stamp set along with the Timeless Tropical stamp sets together.

 

Below is a peek on the inside.

Below a picture of the full inside. 

Do you ever open one of your stamp sets and find a stamp missing?  Well that is what happened to me today.  I can't find the sun stamp so I punched a circle with a retired punch an sponged the sun on the paper.  That worked, I bet the sun stamp is in another stamp set,  I may have used the last time I stamped with it.  At least it was a circle and easy to duplicate.  :) 

New sun image sponged on card stock.

 

Happy Stamp-aversary to ME!!

August 31, 1999 was the day I signed up to be a

Stampin’ UP! Demonstrator. I joined to get the discount and never thought about having a team and I have never looked back or never regretted it. It is so much more than selling stamps, it is the relationships and friendships between my customers and team members. I cherish both groups of women that have come into my life and I would have never known most of them if it wasn’t for this little business.

Have you seen the New Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine? This is a photo of it and I have had mine for a month now and love it. Customers can purchase it September 1st. 

 There is more good news it cost $120 and if you want to get it for $99 with free shipping you can add it for your Stampin' UP! Demo kit and spend the extra $5 on a little something else. When you get your kit you get $125 in products from either catalog and Free shipping. In September Stampin' UP! is adding two extra stamp sets and 8 card kits and a package of rhinestones to make with your new stamps and kits. It is a great time to test drive the demo kit and get your discount every day. Let me know if you want more details.

I just participated in an on line #suleaderssummit for 2.5 days and it was amazing.  We had many many demonstrators across the globe particiWatrpating.  I saw many friends on line with me learning together.  I would love to have you on my team and join all the fun.

Since we haven't had in person events in a while I have been working on my business on Facebook with my customer group and making videos with my team each weekday at 3pm. It keeps me quiet busy and it has been a learning curve, outside my comfort zone but I am enjoying doing them finally. 

Below is a Purse Notes project I showed the group how to make from the Jar of Flowers set.   It is a sweet little gift for a friend to write down a list or to get someone's phone number etc. The inside was cut from $Tree index cards.

If you are interested in joining our Paper Crafting with Frances group send me a message.  It is for non demonstrators only.   If you want to order from my on line store here please use my host code below

Scrapbooking Global May 2020 Blog Hop

Welcome to my blog!  My name is Frances Wagner (WagStamps) This is my first time to blog hop along with the Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop Group. I am honored to be asked. This month we are sharing scrapbook pages with interactive pages. I can't wait to see all the fabulous ideas.

 Scrapbooking Global May 2020 Blog Hop

  Last month I was in a 12x12 scrapbook swap with my WagStampers team and I did a golfing theme and I wanted to add it to our blog hop this month. This month our theme is Interactive Pages!   So we are creating pages that have movement. 

 We had a lot of fun with it.  This is mine.  I love the  Clubhouse Bundle and the Country Club DSP.

The above page was the closed part of interactive element.  Below is the score card pulled out.

I had asked my husband to bring home a score card for me and he did but it was to large so I created one on the computer to work better with my space.   

This was the second page of my layout.  

I think the last time I went golfing with Rich was about 50 years ago and knew then golfing was not my thing.  When I made the scrapbook page I didn't have any pictures to go in it because I never go.  I asked him about me tagging along to take some pics and he was glad I asked. 

 He had a good golf day and it was great to be outside in the fresh air with the love of my life. 

I hope you enjoyed my scrapbook pages and make sure to hop on over to see other great scrapbooking ideas.

Thanks for stopping in today!
