And number 2- Stampin' Up!'s Best of August Stamp Set has been revealed- Halloween!

I don't know about ya'll, but I just love halloween.  I'm not so much into the going out and getting the pants scared off of me, but I do like to decorate the house and give out fun treat bags.  I have already started planning this years Halloween theme at home. Take a look at some of the pumpkins from last year.

Floral Framelit Treat Box Holder

Hi Everyone!

When the new catalogue launched I was super excited to not only see all of the new products but to also see all of the new ideas. Page 121 had this super cute treat holder that I was dying to make, but for the life of me I could not figure it out!!  Thanks to fellow U.S demonstrator Connie Stewart with her quick video and instructions last night I was finally on my way!.  These guys are just adorable, don't you think? Inside they hold a nice little Ghirardelli square, or 2 Hershey's nuggets.

I made these using pieces of card stock from the new In Colors collection for 2013-2015- Strawberry Slush, Crisp Cantaloupe, Coastal Cabana, Pistachio Pudding, and Baked Brown Sugar ( dont those colors just sound yummy!?!)  I stamped the background with the Madison Avenue stamp set that was from Sale a Bration 2013, using the coordinating ink pads. Tied them up with some white seam binding ribbon, and added a little rose embellishment ( which I created from Stampin' UP!'s Simply press clay) on 2 of them.

Stay tuned for instructions on how to make these little guys..

Happy Stamping!

Magnetic Platform

UPDATE ON THE STAMPIN' UP! MAGNETIC PLATFORM:  As many of you know, the response to the Stampin' Up! Magnetic Platform for the Big Shot has been ENORMOUS.  Stampin' Up! went through what they thought would be a 13 week supply in just 3 weeks.  Due to the backorder situation, the Magnetic Platform will not be available to purchase as of July 18 (12:01 a.m. MT).  The Stampin' Up!  supplier is working at capacity to meet the demand.  It is expected that the platform will be available again in early fall.  If you have already placed your order for the Magnetic Platform or place an order before July 18, Stampin' Up! will attempt to fill your order with periodic shipments that are still arriving.  Orders are being filled in the order that they are received.
