Stampin Up Color Refresh!

I have been so extremely busy with my day job over the past few weeks and Stampin' Up! has been making announcement after announcement... I have not been able to keep up!
So, I will start with this one first Color Refresh!

Announcing our Color Refresh! We love color and we know that you do too. Color is fundamental to who we are and what we offer. It's important for us to stay up-to-date with color trends so we are thrilled to share our updated line of colors, and hope you will be as excited as we are by the new possibilities!  

Why now? In 2010 we did a big color renovation and shared our plans for smaller color refreshes every three to five years to keep our colors on trend. Well it has been three years and we are excited to announce that the upcoming 2013-2014 annual catalog will include 10 new colors (most of which are returning In Colors from previous years)! We are welcoming back some of your favorites, moving some colors around, and introducing one brand-new color, so take a look!

Spring is in the Air

 It has been so gorgeous here in El Paso for the past few days! Beautiful warm weather, a slight breeze and ah.... I was lamenting that indeed it has not been warm enough to get in the pool yet, the weather is good, the water is just not warm enough, although a few more days of weather like this and the pool is surely going to be ready.. So you can call these bikinis or even bra and panties, but either way, Spring is on my mind and I am soooo ready to  get my swim on.



I decided that a little green was in order, for St Pattys day, so....  I made some more with that in mind and decided to play with a little lingerie template too...

I'm excited to announce...Stampin' Up! is introducing a cool new Photopolymer stamp choice.  Download: Photopolymer Flyer
stampin up, dostamping, dawn olchefske, demonstrator,  Designer Typeset photopolymer stamps, transparent, clear stamps
What is it and what makes it so great?
  • They're entirely transparent for perfect placement every time! 
  • They are durable. The photopolymer material is designed to last. 
  • Stamps stick amazingly well to our clear blocks and are easy to place just where you want them
  • They're age tested. They won't yellow or cloud up over time. 


They are starting off with one stamp set and plan to offer a new one each month on a trial basis.  Now Stampin' Up! offers options for every kind of stamper: wood-mount, clear-mount, and now photopolymer!  

I cant wait to try these out!

A CASE of By the Tide


As I am certain I have mentioned before.. I love the ocean, I love being in the water, looking at all the beautiful colors so far below, looking at the varied sea life............... Alas, I currently live in El Paso, so... I have to live vicariously through TV, Great Vacations and well... Stampin


This card is a complete CASE from Amy Celona, she recently had a class in PA (my home of origin) which featured this set and the masking you see here..... I loved it so much, I decided to give it a whirl. Mine has a little different effect from hers, but is very similar and I am still happy with it.... The last minute coral at the top was meant to be a little lighter but, I am still happy with it. I think I may go back and for a re-look at my painters tray from the other day and implement something more like this, somewhere in there... I have been wanting to use the sponged ocean picture a little bit lower in the tray anyway..... Ideally, I would love to use the two center spots for the blue ocean, but I am not really sure how that will look.. More to come.
